I wasn't addressing Nintendo's policies with my comments. I was addressing stuff like "That's probably because of the limitations of the Switch, not GIANTS fault" and someone else's off-base performance comments in another thread. It isn't a limitation of the Switch or any other console, i...

I'm saying that Farming Simulator is in fact a more demanding game, maybe not as much in graphics, but it does use the CPU and RAM a lot more than most games. You're correct, it is more demanding on a system. The reason is because it's a poor, outdated engine. I've read that it doesn't even have mu...

Here's the thing. GIANTS uses their own engine, which makes modding a lot easier. And it struggles to run on lower end computer because it's a different type of game. It's having to load most if not all of map at one time to keep your crops growing and the AI working on your fields. This means it t...

So what’s the consensus, is it worth 69.95 It's not worth the full price they're asking for it so wait until it goes on sale in the e-shop. Which it already did once, not sure if it still is on sale. If you want a farming fix while you're on the go the Switch version will fill that role, and it pla...

Settings in the utility? Media Express? It doesn't sound to me like y...

It's all about value. I don't compare the Switch version to general pricing for the platform, I compare it to the same game on a different platform. With the Switch version having less because of a lack of mods. What I would I suggest is you have to sweeten the deal by putting in equipment/maps/DLCs...

Read the whole thread. Giants started saying it's a different game so specifics were asked for.

Thanks for answering my question. Giants had, apparently, decided being evasive was the best way to field questions about their product.

Yes, I read that thread previously. So we've established it's not FS17 but close and it doesn't have mods. So for customers that already own FS17 on a different platform who also own a Switch what's the difference? I'd be willing to pay something for a portable version, but I'm not going to pay full...

Other than it's for a different platform please tell me what is different.

So it's a version of FS17 without mods or anything extra and you're going to charge full price? I don't see the value. $19.99 US seems a more reasonable price, and I suspect a price that would actually generate sales.

Today is the release day for the Switch version. Any chance someone can answer my questions from the 30th?

what is that ?? I do not understand you :?: :hmm: There was a bug reported way back in March where certain combine/header combinations would stutter at the end of every pass. This thread: https://forum.giants-software.com/viewtopic.php?t=110405 It seemed to vary with standard headers but every sunf...

The stuttering header issue appears to be fixed in testing but I haven't tested all of the headers, just the largest sunflower header.

Since this is being released around the same time as the platinum edition will this include the platinum edition?

If not...does it include anything besides the original FS17 game? Additional maps, content previously released as DLCs or Giants designed mods, etc...
