Re: Graphics FS22

The next iteration of the sim needs to have a complete visual overhaul. FS22 looked old when it was launched. Even though it does look better than FS19 I just can't get into its aesthetic. We need proper weather and lighting. Has anything been said about the next version? It wouldn't surprise me if ...

Re: What is your favorite Farm Sim game?

FS17 for me. Thats when I started playing FS so it was a new experience. I was a console only gamer at that point so playing it on the PS4 and scraping every last scrap of enjoyment out of it. I loved it so much I ditched my Apple iMac and invested in a then top spec gaming PC. So I then started pla...

Re: MAPS I miss the most in FS22

FS-22 lacks a decent US map so I miss Lone Oak. Having said that I'm kind of glad none of these maps are coming to FS-22 and I think BulletBill and OxygenDavid have made the right decision not to bring them over. Its time to move on. Those maps were from the FS-17 era and I like moving forward.

Re: FS17 is still great !

I always thought screen shots of FS-17 made it look better than it actually was. I know you could get lots of shader mods that made it look much better than the vanilla version but it does look like a dated game I think these days. With FS22 their lighting was obviously tied heavily to their weather...

Re: FS17 is still great !

You can have all the mods under the sun... if the environment is rubbish then everything else is pointless. I'll gladly sacrifice a hundred pointless machinery DLCs, and all the custom mods on Modhub to get natural realistic lighting environment for Farm Sim. Totally agree with all this. I've just ...

Re: Petition for VR

Headache and motion sickness makes sure VR Will never happen with FS. Game sessions lenght and all The required movement makes sure of that. Nah thats nonsense. People frequently use VR for hours at a time. I can fly a fast jet in flight simulator 2020 for over an hour in VR easily. They stated in ...

Re: 170 Hours and It's Over

Just catching up with this thread as I finally got round to getting FS22. Some of the criticisms of FS22 just aren't realistic, its always been the way with the game and Giants. People comparing it Rockstar and GTA or Microsoft/Asobo and Flight Simulator 2020 just aren't realistic at all. Both those...

Re: Why is Giants pushing Discord

It's such a shame the FS community no longer has any decent third-party forums as it's a much better form of discussion for improving and modding for the game. I really miss the FS-UK website and forum. It was such a great place to source good mods and the forums there were a huge pool of knowledge...

Re: Stuttering..still an issue.

The other thing that makes me think Vsync isn't properly set up yet is that I get tearing in FS22 without Vsync enabled, but I didn't when the game was first released and I've never had it on any of the previous FS games with the same settings (or as close as I can get to them). For me turning Vsyn...

Re: Calmsden Farm Map

When simulators collide. Calmsden as depicted in Flight Simulator 2020. Lovely part of the country to virtually fly over or farm in. https://image.giants-software.com/1/8MgFqqpT.jpg https://image.giants-software.com/1/ftDUMHPm.jpg Anyway, loving this map. This has been my first experience of FS22. P...

Re: Calmsden Farm Map

Really looking forward to this. I still haven't tried FS22 yet because I know the maps are well over half the experience with the sim and OxygenDavid and BullutBill pretty much make the only maps I've ever really liked and spent a lot of time with. Calmsden Farm marks the launch of the sim as far as...

Re: Love Love Love for FS22

Anyone on the fence I highly recommend getting fs22!! I've still not got it. I'm definitely going to get it but I'm waiting for Oxygendavid's first maps to come out. He posted on Facebook that he's having to remake a lot of it because of the changes in FS22 so it'll be a while yet before they come ...

Re: Fs22 First Impressions (Community Conversation)

Still haven't got this yet. I'm holding off until the bugs are fixed and decent (namely OxygenDavid's) mod maps appear. I'm enjoying reading everyone's reviews of it here though. Sounds like a bit of a mixed bag on launch but with potential for better. Which is pretty much what most of us thought an...

Re: 18 Days and counting!

Still not decided whether I'll get this on launch day next week or not. Still got bad memories of FS-19 and how I thought it didn't really launch until the first decent maps arrived. If the feedback is generally positive about Giants base game maps then I'll probably get it but like I said in anothe...

Re: Constructive feedback thread for FS22

The French map is looking pretty good I must say. The sky is looking far better. We've still not seen much variation in the weather but its definitely looking superior to FS19

What a difference the launch version of the game looks over what we saw when Giants first started previewing it.
