Super speed doesn't work

★★★★★ Novice

Hi there,

 

I've googled this for ages and have heard some similar issues but nothing exactly the same. For years now my third speed doesn't function properly when everyone is asleep or at work. It just continues to cycle through the same 10 minutes or so on the clock instead of progressing through the day. My only option is to always have someone awake or only use the second speed which is so slow when there's no one to play. I have tried repairing the game and no luck. Any ideas would be appreciated.

@RandyMandy27 Does it matter if you play in a house or apartment ?

Do you have any pets on the lot ?

What platform are you playing on ?

@crinrict hi thanks for answering! Houses and apartments are both affected. Even multiple save files. I'm playing on a PC. I usually have pets...trying to remember back if this was an issue without...I'll try a file without asap and see if that helps Standard smile

@RandyMandy27 There is a bug report if there's pets: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/TO-TEST-CD-No-Ultra-Speed-While-Pets-are-Awake/td-p/6548391/

It's not that popular anymore but maybe that's what you're seeing ?

@RandyMandy27 Tested your save and while it was stuck at the beginning for a bit (I do have that kind of lag too), it then went to fast forward.

Have you tried repairing your game yet ?
