I also hope for the saddle trac version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vu6ZLnjupkY of the Xerion, which we seem to be getting...I don't see either your Cougar mower or the Xerion saddle trac on the Claas web page though.
Anyone know if the Cougar or the Xerion saddle trac are still part of the Claas line up for 2019 ?
More than 35 pieces of Claas, this means 35 pieces at least and maybe more, some of the machinery is already ready and for 20€ you can preorder them: https://farming-simulator.com/dlc-detai ... 19platinum
EDIT: 21 pieces already revealed!
Lexion combine and headers (at least 3 pieces of equipment)
Tedder, rake and pickup wagon (at lest 3 pieces of equipment)
On the good side, all the Claas fans get their equipment, good for them. I hope they put in North America tire options because DLC is typically encrypted, making it much hard to mod.
On the bad side, there are so many areas of that only have 1 option or are completely missing that this could of given more value.
No-till planters, currently none in the game
Very limited options for large seeders
Very limited options for subsoilers and chisel plows

I'll wait and see what the full list is before leaning either way.
You really think you could make a wrong decision here? More than 35 pieces of equipment. What on earth could go wrong with that??
More stuff that I'm not going to use.
Let's use the Anderson DLC as an example. It has:
Linear wrappers, which are slower and require more handling than individual bale wrappers. Bale mechanics are second only to forest mechanics for being annoying. I won't use these
Logging trailer and round bale wrapper that are a clones of the ones in the game I already don't use
Large capacity round bale trailers. I don't do round bales unless using follow me, so I'm unlikely to use these
Square bale trailers. Slower pick up rate than current one; I won't use these
Woodchip baler is novel, but all it does is mow popular trees and wood chips are laughable in price, so another no go.
Mixing wagons that I don't really want to use because livestock are a joke in terms of profitability. Same goes for bale shredder.
Claas is the same deal, it more stuff that is basically clones of stuff already in the game. I'm not a huge Claas fan, so I don't feel the need to purchase the item based purely on the brand.
I'll make this fairly simple as DLC is typically encrypted, so getting mods based on it is typically hard. I'll put this out there for Giants, if the equipment comes with North American tires options on the tractors and harvesters (hub mounted duals, row crop duals, etc.) I'll buy the DLC no matter what, even if it is full of cloned equipment that already exists in the game.

No Lexion yet, I guess saving best for last Will there be Jaguar without TT?
I guess, jaguar will come with different engine configurations.
I think they want to add the new Lexion 2020, that's why there is delay there.
Also expecting one more tractor...

They have not announced this model yet or have they?
It would be wierd they future models will be in FS19 before that.
Well there’s a lot they haven’t announced yet.
They will over time.
Which makes me wonder... with 35+ pieces of equipment... when will they start their fact sheet Friday’s? Only 12 Friday’s between now and release!

Ugh, more of the same:

Knowing this was a Claas DLC, what else were you expecting? This is what Claas makes.
As far as things based on your game playing preferences, I wouldn't hold your breath. If something is tedious and time consuming...guess what? That what farming is...work.
I want North American equipment and features as much as the next guy, but this is nothing new. To expect them to come as part of a Claas DLC is expecting a lot...especially give past history with versions across the board.
I agree that this is something that should be addressed. Giants certainly can't claim to be ignorant in the issue. But, again...this is Claas.
