Please do NOT post your Game issues in this thread. Make your own thread or check the compiled list.
This is for questions if you're unsure how the bug forum works or needs some other administrative clarification.
Disclaimer: The following changes have no influence on how EA/Maxis handles and monitors bugs. They only have an influence on the compiled list and how I as a volunteer handle threads going forward. Please continue to report your issues even if they don’t get the same visible handling.

Hi Guys
today the AHQ team announced that Answers HQ is moving to EA Forums, This is currently planned for February 2025. Currently there aren't any changes for the bug forum here so please just continue to report your issues here as before.
There is one difference though: I am dropping the [OPEN] tag as per today. I wont' be removing any but I also won't be adding any new ones.
EA Forums currently has it's own bug forum where I've been testing it's functionality the past few weeks. It has it's own tagging system which is much clearer then the one here. The tags here all stem from a time when there was no QA presence at AHQ and was a way of showing popular threads. Much has changed over the years and I feel I'm at a point where I no longer want to do the extra work on something I'm having constant discussions about so I'm dropping OPEN. All other current tags will stay as they show the actual QA status of the thread (except workaround but that's to highlight something).
I will continue to work as I have before except for this change. Please refer to this thread for current info on the bug forum: [INFORMATION] How does this forum work ?
Let me known this thread if you have any questions.
Please also read this thread for further info how the bug forum works: [INFORMATION] How does this forum work ?

Going to take a break from adding new bug reports.
There will be an EP Patch soon which is usually huge so I will refrain from adding more to the list (List Update to follow later today)
Will still merge or troubleshoot if applicable but please be patient. Will need to recharge a bit before the Patch/EP hits so I won't be around as much over the weekend.
You're of course welcome to continue reporting but I encourage everyone to re-test after the patch has hit.
Also backup your saves :D
Good Luck
