Great. No way to get rid of it. I’m not logged in, nor am I using the store in my game, and yet…it’s still there. -_-

The gold button is just bugging me for some reason. Perhaps because when I load buy mode it immediately loads whatever is under the featured sets.

No you can’t. The panel still is there checked on or off. Only difference is what is store/items you own and just sets you own.

I don’t know why everyone is having a fit about this. You can simply uncheck the box in the options panel to get rid of it. Sheesh.

Yes, a checkbox in the game settings but it will remove the Store Mode button in CAS too

There’s a turn off button? I need it!

I didn’t like the original in-game store at all (emphases: AT ALL), but decided to give this one a look, and it is much better.

I bought one set on sale, and it took only 5 minutes to install (compared to about 30 minutes for the old store) which was acceptable.

The in-store sales are decent (we all know that EA can do half-arsed deals and good deals when they want to. You just have to be patient enough to wait, if you don’t ‘need’ it right away.)

The new ‘set collection’ feature is a nice addition. Maybe not perfect, but better than before, and makes creating new collections easier by letting you quickly find set items you own.

The option to turn off is always welcome.

All-in-all, I am glad they added it; even if I only use it that one time to test.

Messy and ugly.
Intrusive for those who didn’t want it.
Not organised enough or useful enough for those that did want it.

There’s a perfectly good collections folder this feature COULD have gone into, with the option to delete if you didn’t want it. Win/win option ignored as usual.

Did I mention glitchy?

I turn off the store option in game and it only shows me sets ive bought/free sets ive downloaded.

I like it because of big sets i cant always find everything now i can just find the set and its all there for me to put in my house. and i dont have to deal with the store itself and anything i cant afford or dont want isnt shown.

Plus its in its own section
ex. Living room i have asian fusion if i want only it i click the sets and there it is for me to pull stuff out of or i click on couches and no store stuff only couches like normal.

the sets is just the base when you open a room type its there to remind you you do have sets that work in that room.
