Halloween Headstart task very unclear

I have done about 10 varying kinds relationship events trying to complete this card... I have no idea what it is asking for. Directions are very unclear! I finally completed it, and it only worked for events for entering new chapters. No part of the card specified that...

Yes! I just posted about this in the technical issues areas. I got it to work by completing events that begin a new chapter. But I had to do like 10 events to figure that out.

@mem1222, I saw your reaction to: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Open-Negative-events-not-counting-towards-completion-12-19/m-p...
But from what I read here you have this issue with any kinds of relationships, they need to be new relations to work for this part of the event?

It says "keep your friends close in these spooky times" 

You have to start three friendly relationships and then choose friendly stories. 

It won't work if you choose rivalry or romance.

No matter the relationship type, it only worked for the events that entered new chapters. Didn’t matter the chapter, or it it was a rival, friend, or romance. It didn’t work for the “begin a...” events either. Only for the special events that begin new chapters... it was very strange!

E5na, 

I’m not sure if that worked for you, but I was only able to progress with the events that entered new chapters. It did not matter if they were rival, romance, or friendly. Any type worked, so long as it was an event for a new chapter... and the “begin a...” event did not count either. For any relationship type. I had to do around 10 varying kinds of events to figure it out.

@mem1222, I tried first starting one romantic and two friendly relationships, and choosing stories. Only friendly new relationships counted. The romantic didn't count, so I tried again with friendly and finished that part of the quest.

@SalixCat Very interesting. New relationships, even friendly ones, didn’t seem to work for me. I Honestly have no explanation! Very weird.

 

In any case, the “technical issue” post I made simply states that the directions were very unclear. The task was to begin a “relationship” event, which means any kind of relationship should have counted, no matter what the title of the task was.

 

Then, that little question mark usually explains the exact way to get credit, but in this case it simply restated the task the way it said on the card (“relationship”). You can see my screenshots at my post.

 

Also usually the action bubbles that pop up for quests are blue instead of green to stand out, so you know that you’re doing it for the quest. In this case, there were no indicators when tapping on a sim that your action was going to count. Really just to sum up, all of those extra things they do to make the task clear are super necessary, and hopefully they don’t get left out in future quests Standard smile
