John Deere fleet expansion?

[IowaFarmer34]

Pulled the below statement from announcement that @JohnDeere has joined FSL:

“With the entry into the FSL, John Deere also plans the expansion of the virtual machine fleet in the game.

The John Deere team will be accompanied by John Deere in the social media. The John Deere team will compete for the first time at FarmCom 2019.”

Looks like more beautiful green and yellow equipment may be on its way...

High hopes this isn't exclusively for FSL. That would be a low blow and a real disappointment.

So I followed a link to John Deere's E-Gaming. Its all in German so I translated it as follows:

John Deere with his own e-sports gaming team

The entry into the gaming world began last year. Since the version Farming Simulator 2019 John Deere is represented for the first time with 15 faithful models.

Due to the positive feedback and the great demand for the John Deere models in the game, the commitment should be further expanded.

In addition to a planned expansion of the machine fleet in the game, John Deere sends its own E-Sports Agricultural Simulator Team in the race. The newly formed John Deere E-Sports Team is recruited from seven Farming Simulator players from all over Germany. As a leading manufacturer of agricultural machinery, it is clear goal of John Deere also to play a clear role in the FSL.

In 15 tournament games, which are held throughout Europe, the participating teams compete for the title "Farming Simulator Champion 2020" and an attractive prize money of 250,000 euros. John Deere will be represented for the first time at FarmCom 2019 with his team.

This would awesome for more stuff like seeders and cultivators...maybe even American and EU series. It's easily done just look at CM 8r...toggle it either way

...In addition to a planned expansion of the machine fleet in the game...

Told y'all.

I had no doubt that an expansion was in the works... this is the first formal communication/acknowledgement of that by Giants.... intentional or not.. Cats out of the bag now, hopefully we will start to get more details like what is included and estimate timeline for availability.

This is actually awesome. Great find.
If we get this and Claas I think GIANTS really has come through.

I hope its not a dlc

I think it will be, dont recall giants ever doing an update including an expansion of vehicles

[GothicKing13]

I wouldn't mind a John Deere DLC. If it will at least come with 1 more harvester. We have the T560 and the S790. I would really love something a wee smaller than the T560, a better suite for an upcoming "new" farm. Around the size range of the Rostselmash Nova 330. Would also love some equipment to go with the tractors!

As long as there is a JD cotton picker included I will be happy.
