Re: Economy discussion on Hard/Start from Scratch

Maybe it was. I've only spent some serious time with FS15 I haven't played FS15, but that was my takeaway from FS17 and FS19. In FS19 for example, I spent many irl days farming fields 12 and 6 in Ravenport. It was a slow grind to afford land, buildings, and equipment, but at least I was getting som...

I actually wonder what causes more damage, Windows 10 bugs or Windows 7 bugs. I won't be surprised if Windows 10 updates or bitlocker forgetting its keys nuked as much user data as cryptolockers.

Re: Economy discussion on Hard/Start from Scratch

That's how it was in previous games, wasn't it, arable farming being barely profitable? The game makes you do tedious things you don't always enjoy, like forestry or silage so that you can fund things you enjoy, like driving tractors and harvesters.

Or imagine if modders could make maps with ads embedded in them and get paid.

Re: Why is the game serving ads?

Billboards are a real life thing. I think the argument is that things people don't like in real life don't need to be reflected in games. Ads in real life are obnoxious and people limit their exposure to ads. Cities have restrictions on what and where can be advertised, on the internet people use a...

If anything, I'd prefer if this game was rated for adults, so that we can have meat industry and wine instead of lame "grape juice".

Re: Weather is broken

Well, fair enough, while it's actively snowing, there should normally be at least some snow on the ground.

That's probably how it should be. I don't know if anywhere except mountains the snow would stay on the ground for long.

The prices of buildings have always bugged me. First the game extorts 150k (was it 250k in FS19?) from you just to be able to fast forward time. Then, it extorts money for sheds which are purely cosmetic in the unmodded game. Even the dog costs whooping 2500. Like, why?

Re: Please make a WINDOWS 7 FIX for FS22!

Not an immediate solution, but it could make sense to migrate to Linux eventually, if you don't feel like installing new Windows versions. FS22 seems to have positive reviews on Protondb, so it's likely to run fine, especially if you have a Steam version.

FS22 Sunrise and sunset times

Hi guys, can you tell me what happens in the game to sunrise and sunset times throughout the year? I've been watching some videos and the duration of night and day felt somewhat off, not really corresponding to the month, but I cannot pinpoint concrete examples yet.
