I'm still playing.... My little farm is actually looking like a farm now :)
Still got my little baby tractors, but have garages for them, my own silo, Chickens, Sheep and Horses...And a new decent size field now too :).
Just trying to save a bit of money now so I can get new tractors and harvester.

Still see lots of people complaining about FS19, saying FS17 is still a lot better...Must admit I dont get it ? Just being able to kinda design your own farm for me makes this much more enjoyable (especially after landscaping update). I can see me putting more hours into this one than I did on FS17.

I think some people go out of their way to be disappointed. Granted there's quite a few things that I think could have been done better, but it's certainly not the broken mess some people make it out to be (even at launch it wasn't that bad).
 
I've been too busy building an International trucking powerhouse to focus on farming (which currently consists of a whopping 2 semi's!). I'm planning on putting some time into it this weekend though now that some mods are finally getting tested by Giants.

We'll have to get some multiplayer action some time! :D
 
My Logitech Heavy Equipment Bundle does not work on FS 19 but does on FS 17; or have they fixed that yet? Tried setting up my t300rs wheel and pedals but that does not work either - otherwise I would be farming- instead I am trucking and racing and occasionally flying :)
 
I started dumping more hours into FS19 again. Found this dedicated server with a decent amount of people on Michigan Map. Quite a blast tbh.
 
Woah, there's a Michigan map? Do you have a link so I can download it?

Also; If any of you guys are interested. Here's the discord link to the community I play with! Its relatively small however ton of fun!

Seems this game has esports which is cool


Are you ready for some competitive virtual farming? Giants Software announced today that it will a run an esports league for its unreasonably popular game Farming Simulator. The first season of Farming Simulator League will consist of 10 tournaments that will take place across Europe. Competitors will go head to head with a chance to win up to $280,000 in prize money put up by the developer.

Man, I wonder how these tournaments will be set up. :lol: Who can produce the most yield and make the most money in xyz amount of time.

I think the GTP article mentioned the tournament last year had "hay bale stacking". It sound like fun, until the bales themselves decide to have a mind of their own and glitch out everywhere :lol:

Wow. Never thought Farm Simulation can be made in this way. Very cool and realistic.
Anyone knows where I can buy it for the cheapest price because I'm currently leak of money.
 
Well, there's finally a good John Deere 9R mod out there. It's easily become my favorite large tractor in the game :)

There's a ton of options for it, so it should be able to satisfy your taste. Still haven't seen any good 9RX mods (apart from some unfinished builds), but give it time. I would post a link to the mod, however i'm unsure if that would break the AUP.

Did you see Taylor's Farm posted a 9RX Mod?
 
Claas is coming! They are holding their annual event at a Claas facility and the community manager at the official forums confirmed they have an agreement. Once they are in the game FS19 will have all the major brands, so hopefully they can start focusing on some of the smaller brands like Versatile (eh!).

 
Very Exciting! Other news;

This has been my biggest complaint about the landscaping tool, and it's nice to see they've fulfilled my dream :)
 
Since they finally released some maps onto the mod hub I think I can finally really get into the game. Marwell Manor is easily my favorite of the ones released so far, if you haven't yet, I highly recommend doing it on the "New Farmer" setting as the pre-set farm is amazing!

time to start up multiplayer again! :P
 
Has anyone here tried out the new DLC? Was thinking about getting it but wasn't sure if it's worth the $10.
 
As long as the bale physics are a nightmare to work with I don't feel the need to buy a DLC pack dedicated to them.
 
Does anyone know any good pickup and semi mods? I've found a 4X map I like and I'm planning on making it my long-term realistic map, however the in-game trucks and U.S. semi's look like garbage.

I have two semis, one a Kenworth W900 and an International Eagle:

As far as pickups go, it's kind of a crapshoot since a lot of ones I've seen either don't have working parts or are too big a file size which causes frame drops. The only one I can think of to recommend is the Ram 3500 I have:

Playing on console has some limitations. I finally managed to get a three trailer combination up and running using the (Mod) Fliegl 2 axle Dolly. A decent 120 Litre capacity (I think).
