Console or pc?

[mountaincowboy]

Is ram your processing power? Sorry if I ask so many questions, like I said above, I know little to nothing about PC's.

16gb ram is overkill imo.

Consoles have 8GB and they struggle with slot counts. 16GB ensures you can have all the equipment, bales etc. you want, plus some mod maps use up a lot more slots than the default maps. Plus FS19 will surly be even more Ram hungry.

Its not something absolutely necessary but it is nice to have.

Ok question, since I have an Xbox One and know about the slot count. I've got like four or feel very maps loaded and a bunch of modded and non modded equipment for each map and I've still got, I think my lowest slot count is around 300 or so and I can't honestly foresee me going any lower because I literally have more equipment and machinery then I use. So the 16GB recommendation is just holy more then should be ever needed idea.?

I wouldn't worry about the ram. Plenty of users here have said they play on high with 8gb and no problems.

[mountaincowboy]

I'm sure I'll upgrade it at some point but I think for now it'll be just great for everything we do plus more.

I can confirm the 8GB on High and not having any RAM problems whatsoever. 8GB is enough for gaming, 16GB may be future proof, but for this game, 8GB is well enough.

Thank you all very much for all of your help and input. It's extremely appreciated!!!

Why are console users not getting the same experience .... We paid for the game and likely we paid more for it

Do a little reading on the forum to better understand how it works.....in short we will never have all the mods they have for a lot of different reasons.

To put it bluntly, console can't hack it. I'm a Xbox user myself so yeah I'm butt hurt too. We paid more because of Microsoft and Sony, not giants. It's like the Dlc, I was on the forza forums talking about dlc prices... one of the devs had commented that it's Microsoft who say how much the dlc will be etc so, if it's true, giants aren't at fault

That's all well and good and of course I understand the implications and reasons but there is surley certain things we can still receive regardless of our consoles like less maps more vehicles

That's not Giants either. That's the mod makers not wanting to/ not caring enough to send their stuff to Giants to get approved for consoles, the mods contain scripts or they are a mod of a non licenced manufacturer

8Gb ram is all I have too and its more than ok for it.

[BreadedVirus]

8GB is plenty.

If you want more mods that you can possibly use in the game, go PC. If you're wanting the game on PC just to get JD equipment and the GPS, Follow Me mods, then that's all fine and dandy. I don't use JD equipment or the GPS and Follow me mods. Overrated to be honest.

I'm throughly enjoying the game on the PS4.

Whatever you choose....happy farming
