Is 32€ a good enough price to get it? Thinking about buying it from CdKeys

[QUOTE=NoaJM;45870462]Of course as soon as I wanna buy it my bank decides to be a dick |: Sigh[/QUOTE] The exact same thing happened to me. Buying it off of CJsKeys locked down my bank account because of the strange location of the transaction. Buying it off of Origin was not possible for some reason, and the customer support wasn't helping. I was eventually able to buy it by telling my bank to fuck off and then purchasing it on CDKeys.

Every time you want to play if you're from the UK or any country that it's not released do you have to keep logging out of origin and then opening the vpn?

You will need to do the trick every time otherwise.

Sorry for being a bit of an idiot, i'm just new to this kinda stuff

Not sure how i feel about the mood system. One of my ambition challenges was to play games for 2 hours straight while focused, very focused didnt seem to count and id always end up uncomfortable due to bladder or hygine before hitting 2 hours :(

I think the game is great and all but coming from TS3 with all the expansions it feels like a step down. I know it's just been released and more content is on the way but I'm probably going to wait some time before playing more. Just my thoughts if anyone is thinking of buying and they already have a beefed up sims 3.

So now that you've all had some time to ruminate on it, would you guys say it's worth getting? (And reccomend sites to get it cheaper)

It's easier going from Sims 3 to 4 it seems than it was going from Sims 2 to 3. Sims 3 had so many problems, and some of which never got fixed even after the 40th patch or something around that number.

So where is the cheapest place to get a key?

I did it. I bought Sims 4. I can't wait to play some of dat.

[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;45870989]So where is the cheapest place to get a key?[/QUOTE] For me it seemed like CD keys , it was £25.99 i think but if you like their page on facebook you get some discount that goes to £24

[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;45871047]For me it seemed like CD keys , it was £25.99 i think but if you like their page on facebook you get some discount that goes to £24[/QUOTE] How long does it take to get the key from them? Also. I assume you mean this one? [url]http://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/the-sims-4-limited-edition-pc-cd-key-origin[/url]

[QUOTE=Fish_poke;45871056]I bought it and got it almost instantly. They have a super fast response.[/QUOTE] Then screw it. I'm gonna grab one from them.

Yep, get it from CDKeys for instant delivery and a good price. It was $43 which is much better than $65.

My baby is mutated. Hope it fixes automatically when he becomes a child. Other than that the game is really fun. I'm impressed with the personality and interaction changes. It makes conversations less of a grind and more fun just watching the random interactions and seeing it progress while sprinkling in little nudges in certain directions.

Yup. Bought it, got it for £24.62 or so. INSTANT delivery. Preloading now.

I bought the limited edition off cdkeys.com for £25.90, fucking bargain. Also, a very welcome change to The Sims now, time seems slower, an hour doesn't seem to go by at the quickest speed in like 5 seconds, everything feels like it moves at a better pace, you can get more things done in a day and honestly, more realistically.

Argh this download feels like forever. I'm way too excited to try this out.

Eliza Pancakes keeps wanting to hang out non stop for some reason. Managed to fail at cooking and set both of us on fire. Having so much fun with this game.

Gave in and bought this, using that Korean VPN to download now. Origin seems to be slightly exceeding my max speed somehow, so I'm getting 8MB/s.

Does anyone know if there is an eyedropper tool for build mode? I can't seem to find it. [editline]1[/editline] Never mind found it; all the tools are on the tool bar at the top of the screen.
