Farming Simulator 19: Farm like never before!

[OlavEmil]

I'm intrigued by the "open worlds" part.

The only open world game I've played recently was dying light and that was huge..... Interesting!

Every FS map since beginning has been and is open world. You are free to move around openly in the map world, as opposed to being guided through a pre-defined route, like in Super Mario (to use a simple example). Nothing new or exciting in that particular part of the press release.

Much more interesting is the graphics overhaul, the dog, the new maps, and "brand new mechanics", whatever that may be (hopefully physics mechanics, like deformable terrain ).

well he said they did a complete overhaul of their engine, sooo its not the same engine, its changed and improved

You know what? Let me go into detail:

Here is what we did:
The Sky is dynamic now. Real coulds (3d objects) that turn grey before it starts to rain, so you can predict the weather
Sun and Moon are there and moving
We added volumetric fog (it looks SO good)
We added:
Depth of Field
Color grading / Tone Mapping
High Dynamic Range Rendering
Bloom
Global Illumination (SSAO)
Dynamic Eye Adaptation
Light Scattering



That's a huge list for a engine update and the results will blow you away once we can show them.

*Jaw drops* I cannot wait to see that!

And the 60 fps lock? gone?

[Lisertan]

Not sure. WIll keep that question in mind for later.

[ClassicTractors]

Did I see a dually truck in the beginning of the video?!?!

[tecto]

GIANTS should we expect that graphics quality will be at least so good as other newest games like GTA, Call of Duty etc. ?

And release date is ............... ??

[Aj1053]

Can't wait to see more details and what's to come

[markare]

I would guess the end of October again like it was last year since they said the fall/autumn. Just a guess. Not 100% before anyone jumps down my throat.

We are not Activision, dude However, it will look great, you'll see.

No date sorry. Fall for now.

This might be a dumb question but do you guys at giants plan on adding more logging equipment or will you be able to put big pile of trees without the lag or will it have forestry at all just a curious few questions I had. thanks for all you guys at giants do for all us players .

Can you tell us something about system requirements?

[Lisertan]

Can you tell us something about system requirements?

Not yet. We are still in early development, so no specifics.

They will be higher than FS17 for sure, but we will do our best to support older systems as well. However, if your system rund FS17 on minimum only, FS19 will most likely not run at all.

Ok thanks I can't wait anyway!!

One more question. Will the vehicles have the interactive dashboard lights? It's a really small thing that will make many people happier

And regarding vehicle customisation - will there be a preview window for this?
It will be good to see the preview of e.g. wider wheels or something - before paying Now we're paying for this as blind
