But, it’s market value is very low, so I didn’t plant it much. Oats is far simpler, functioning just like the returning wheat and barley crops. It’s selling price isn’t too bad, but the initial investment might drive away more budget-conscious players. So, I only ended up experiencing it via a contract job, which I’ll discuss further soon. Cotton requires a special harvester that’s incredibly expensive, even to lease. ![]() While they may plaster the boxart, neither of which were very compelling to me.

With other, more refined driving simulators like Spintires and American/Euro Truck Simulator 2 out in the wild, it’s hard to ignore FS19’s simpler driving mechanics.Ĭotton is an interesting new crop, but it requires a significant initial investment. This was an issue that annoyed me in FS17, and I can’t help but continue to be annoyed that it’s still present two years later here in FS19.

Steering still feels pretty twitchy when using a gamepad. This is a nice addition, but the improvements to the driving mechanics basically end there. A new physics system has been put into place that causes machinery to bounce and bob more realistically as they plod along through the rough terrain of the fields. ![]() For the most part, this feels like a modest update rather than a huge overhaul to its predecessor.įor one thing, the driving mechanics are still pretty hit and miss. But, that’s just the thing-only in some ways is it a step up. ![]() Now, after playing FS19 for nearly two dozen hours, I must say-this isn’t quite what I expected.įarming Simulator 19 naturally prides itself on being the big new entry in the now decade-old franchise.
