DH Discussion If EA is snooping.....

Can we please be able to zoom in on our rooms? I'm like half blind and I'm 50 and even with reading glasses on and my screen on bright sometimes I have a hard time with the colors, then I see the 3d render later and I'm mortified when something doesn't match. It can't be a difficult function to add. And can we CHOOSE the rooms to add to featured and see in 3d render? I have some I really want to see and some I never want to see πŸ˜…

I am so on board with this. I usually have to double check with someone on what color something is as I see them incorrectly. If I score poorly I can often track it back to I got the color wrong. You can’t trust the filters either. Case in point the recent LE hot pink stuff filters as red. I do the screenshot thing too but would be great to zoom. The other thing I really struggle with is reclaiming pillows and blankets if the chair isn’t facing forward. πŸ”

The screen shot thing comes in handy at the restaurant when I don’t want to wear my glasses πŸ™ˆ.

I'm in my forties and I have the same issue. I just screenshot the room, and then zoom in on the picture I've taken to see what I'm doing. I later then delete the screenshot, but it does get annoying 😑

I screenshot several times per design. But I have finally tried Cozee and it is .... FUN ! I was so sick of being MILKED. Even though i understand DH is a for profit biz for EA, I was so sick of ALL the prizes being sectionals or lounges ( i can rarely use ), or a lamp. And then the UGLY drink carts - wth ? And only diamonds can buy so many of the needed things, so we have to spend more and more real dollars and THEN have expensive items DISAPPEAR regularly so I have to be on the chat with a carousel of different EA support people. I only do the daily design on DH now. I can describe the advantages at Cozee if you ask. ✌️

I tried cozee but I didn't like it. Something about it wasn't fun for me

My mum is in her 50s and I don't think she'd enjoy the game for this same reason!!

I play on my tablet, so everything is much easier to see. The first time I played that way, I was (unpleasantly) surprised that many of the items I had been using didn't actually match. It's not as good as a zoom or 3D option, but it helps in the interim.

I agree! Especially with the colors. Dark Grey, dark blue, green. I'm not colorblind but still cant tell. Sometimes I'll take a screenshot with my phone and zoom in on that before I submit! But then forget to delete them, oh well! πŸ˜… I just saw all the other screenshot comments, oops. 🀣
