Console Mods

Post by ranger01 »

Why does it take so long to get mods for consoles? The game is getting boring now. I'm starting feel like I wasted my money.

Mods for console have to be tested to ensure they meet strict guidelines. There has been plenty of mods Ince the game got released. If you are waiting on a new map you may have some time to wait as Modders need to start from scratch and learn all the new details in the game files to be able to create the map.

Remember that mods are free and take time as these are generally made by one person who believe it or not actually have other obligations in life. They can't sit and design stuff 24 hours a day.

Also remember back just slightly over 2 years ago before fs17 released with mod ability. Fs15 was purchased as is. If you wanted extra stuff you paid for the dlc. Remember the days of not having mods on console??

Be thankful that you have the ability on console now to have mods. Giants didn't need to implement it at all on console.

Be patient. The game is a month old, the mods will arrive eventually.

Game’s been out less than a month and people already want extensive mod content to be available - smh. There aren’t even many mods available for PC yet so I don’t know how the floodgates are expected to open for console players. If you find the content available from the base game so paltry for retaining your interest I’d really question whether FS is the right game for you.

Watch saying stuff like that on here, thatll snowball quick...I’m just waiting for seasons and the rolling hills map by Dr Modding which looks like out first truly american map in fs19. It’s based in Midwest and since I live in the northern half of Indiana, I can testify it looks about right, ang hey, no trash in random places! There’s just an occasional broken down car at the prebuilt farmyards...

why don't you stop with that comment it's getting very very old. Are you a pc player?.. if you are why do you even care what consoles get or don't get, because entitled pc players get everything so why complain and whine about something that don't even effect you....

If you can't reasonably answer this yourself then you're probably too young to accept the answer. But if it helps, it's because Consoles are only 1 bit, while PCs are 2 bits. That's why PCs get mods twice as fast, it's all in the bits.
As for your money, yes you wasted it for sure. You should have waited for a sale just after Christmas.

I agree it's doesn't sound very Canadian. But so many people ask the same questions even though the answers are everywhere. Might as well use the 1 bit, 2 bits explanation with the slots question as well.

I am waiting for the console update to come out so the console players can use the new terrain editing to make a map for PC.

got to so agree with ya on that and like someone above said about there plenty of mod's there are 28 total so far not counting the prefable's listed on the mod page and only 5 are from someone other then giant's and all of the one's giant's have put out 1 should be a DLC and rest should of been in the game in the first place.

What's available for consoles on the mod hub aren't exactly "mods" but rather FS13 recycles converted to a newer version.
