Can this not be done?

Post by Chad »

Is it possible for Giants to PLEASE allow us to hire more workers? Am currently playing on ps4. Do not know if this can be done thru DLC? Any insight from the programming gurus on the forum? Thank you in advance!

Sorry 6 is all ps4 and Xbox 1 can have, it used to be only 3 in prior versions. Not much can be done its a hardware limitation.

It was 6 as well in fs 15 on PS4. I think it might have been 3 on PS3.

Yes you are right it was 6 on the ps4 and xbox1 in 15. I was just pointing out it is better than it used to be. I know at times when using 6 workers my ps is working hard and I get some lag at times so I would rather be limited to that than have my game crash. I played ps3 on FS 13 with just 3 and this is much nicer for sure.

Oh yea the game is not happy when you get that many workers out and about, especially if you place the majority on one field. I've also noticed frame rate stutters when I am working close to my bale stacks and even if I put all my equipment in one area.

You feel you're not getting enough messages like "Helper C is blocked by object" or "Helper D has finished their tasks," only to find out that he didn't, because he decided to stop in the middle of the job or to turn in the biddle of last row? :-)

...and is waiting for two messages: "Helper C is blocked by an object" and "Helper D is blocked by an object" when they collide. :-D
