Wants/Fears still on despite being switched off

★★★ Newbie

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90.375.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? City Living, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, Get Together, Werewolves, Dream Home Decorator, Tiny Living Parenthood, Dine Out, Backyard Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Romance Garden, Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Moschino Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Start a new game and save, then go back in the game via the menus.
What happens when the bug occurs? Wants/Fears will resume in the game despite it being turned off in the game. Wants appears immediately, but if you wait long enough a fear will also appear and will cause issues as well.
What do you expect to see? Expect to launch the game without seeing the wants/fears activated at all. To fix this you must turn it on and then back off again (but this should still be a bug, because you have to do it every time you launch back into the game)
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

To fix this you must turn it on and then back off again (but this should still be a bug, because you have to do it every time you launch back into the game)

Have to disable wants/fears everytime

★★★★★ Apprentice

Hi, apologies in advance if this has been mentioned before, I've looked and can't find anything about it. 

I play on ps4, everytime I load my game to play sims have wants/fears bubble on their heads. I go to game option and there is no tick in the box, so they should not be there! I have to tick the box and untick it for the bubbles to go away. Is this a fault? Surely if it's been disabled and no tick in the box when I start, they should not have the bubbles or wants/fears. Is anyone else having this problem? TIA 😊

I have the same problem. Wants and needs are turned off and they come back all the time.

Hi,

    Further to my last post I went through all my games and turned Fears and Wants off. I do not wish to do all that again when you fix it. So leave it off by default this time to avoid getting angry customers. This IMHO should be tested before it is released. This indicates poor Quality Control or Coders who are incompetant. Not good enough EA and under U.K. law we can ask for our money back if the software is not fit for purpose. There are so many bugs in this game it's only because of the good nature of your customers that all in the U.K. have not demanded all their money back. I have spent a considerable amount over the years and so have many others.

Kind regards James.

Re: show wants & fears button broken?

I don't want the “wants and fears” feature. I have toggled them off in game options. Nevertheless every time I switch to a different Sim family the wants and fears bubbles reappear. When I go to game options they are still appearing to be toggled off.  Nevertheless there they are on the screen for every Sim. If I go back into the game options and re-toggle and un-toggle the wants/fears button they will then disappear. But this is an annoying process to have to repeat every time I switch to a different family every time I log on to play. Is this a problem or will it always be this way? Why isn't untoggling them in game options a universal thing?
