Piss and Moan about IP thread

[Roobs]

I'm finding IP to be virtually unplayable. Horrible lag (even in Buy/Build modes. FPS is stable, there just seems to be a delay between every click and action when I'm building) and I'm getting a constant barrage of unroutable sims in the new hood.

Then get a better PC.

I am getting a bit of lag in build buy, manly when I try and use the eyedropper. I have made my first dive lot in Sunlit Tides using the tutorial linked from the BBS, it works well.

I've been watching several Let's Players on youtube lately and pretty much all of them experience some kind of lag in IP, some more than others. Basically the game pauses while the animations keep on going and then continues again, this happens every couple of simminutes. Even with LP'ers who normally have rather smooth game-play. I've also heard people complaining about Overwatch throwing up a significant amount of routing errors in IP and there only. According to others they experience this "lag" only in IP and in no other worlds. Seeing as how the routing works from several LP'ers I can say that I'm not surprised. IP seems as though it's more of a routing nightmare than Bridgeport.

I don't understand why someone here is whining about EA (yet again)... they sell cheaply-made piss-f*cking crap for top bucks, it is a known fact since TS1, or even earlier. If you got S3 thinking that all would be better all of a sudden, you are a moron.

On a more related matter, I like EP10 better than that Supercrappual EP with not-undead pseudozombies and all that dumb wizard/fairy/hairy stuff no-one can use.

Like the mermaids are any better; they're useless. The new shiny effect they have wears off real quick when you realize that once you've seen them swim around for a few minutes that that's all they're worth.

Going to piss & moan about my townie/npc Sims riding around on jet skis on the road.  There was a rather attractive Sim my Sim wanted to date, but he was forever tragically stuck on a jet ski.

Mermaids are stupid & I hate their stockings.

Just got everything installed and those jet skis piss me off. I haven't come across anything else yet. Ilsa Paradiso was a little choppy, but only played for about a sim week.

[eaglezero]

Ever since installing Island Paradise, I have a lovely glitch where my sim resets every day at 5 am. That's with all CC/mods taken out. lol sims.

There are also routing errors but those seem pretty standard with every new world they make.

I guess, uh, the islands are pretty. Yep. That's my plus for this game.

[Manny I Am]

My Sim just went and took a jetski to ride on the road, too. Sometimes they get on their jetski to go somewhere in the water, and it doesn't move at all. And they get stuck there forever. Or they stand up on it and do idle animations. Those things are borked as Hell.

There's a mod at MTS that removes the scales from mermaids in human form and makes them much less stupid.

Awesome, now if we could only find one for you...

What can mermaids do anyway besides summon tentacle rape on random boats and swim faster?

[GnatGoSplat]

They can dive without running out of air or needing to depressurize afterwards.  That's about it.  Everything else is annoying and they are more needy than a regular sim.  A hydration bar replaces hygiene and they'll pass out and eventually croak if there are no other sims around to dump a bucket of water on them.  They also gain voracious appetites that can only be fully satisfied by eating foods containing kelp (anything else only fills the hunger bar about 1/4 or 1/3rd of the way).

Perhaps a tard sock?

It is an 18, so a certain level of stupid is to be expected. Just look at the moronic avatard.

[jezzer]

Oh, it's been strutting around like it's a badass from day one while people who actually somewhat matter ignored it, so it's hardly surprising that it's attempting to punch outside of its weight class now.

[spaceface]

I played IP for a few hours, and then my PC got bored with it and it now crashes as soon as it loads. I am not impressed with the small amount of new content, and the numerous shortcuts taken. Haven't seen any glitches yet but I've been playing with AM from the start.

I sometimes get a reset when the sims try to explore a cave, suddenly they're all standing on the shore of a nearby island, still in their scuba gear.

I've had two burglars in the middle of the ocean, no police. I think only the burglars have boats. One burglar stole a chest of drawers and took off in his speedboat in the middle of a storm. Gotta give him points for effort.

I tried to order a pizza on my island home. The pizza boy showed up, but I couldn't take delivery. Eventually I had to reset him to get him off my porch.

There's a glitch/feature that teleports your sim to land if the cave you explore doesn't have any tentacles in them when you choose the interaction. Just check whether there are tentacles coming out of the cave before exploring it. You can fix it by going into edit town and reset the lot by going into build/buy mode and move some stuff around. Or simply use a mod to reset the lot. I usually cba though so I simply move on to another diving spot which has an explorable cave. Usually the tentacles appear the next day either way.

Indeed - EA are insufferable cunts to be sure, but I fail to see what they have to do with a bunch of genocidal genetically-inbred retards with a racial superiority complex.

[Eurotrash]

Everyone's talking about me.

What's the status on recurring services, such as maids, for island homes?
