Large Equipment

Post by Dale Kieser »

Love the new Farm Sim 22 game !
But would like to see more Large Equipment selection. Seems like most of the game is geared towards smaller farming, which is great, but some of us enjoy the Large stuff too. And please please please, make LSW tires a standard option on any Large Equipment that can handle them. Wayyy to much selection on narrow tires, and nothing on the big stuff. Anyone who knows the new farming trend of LSW Tire advantage over tracks and Duals, will understand and appreciate this option in the game. And Yes I am a Farmer in real life for over 27 years. And in the middle of replacing Dual tires with LSW on our farm.

More customisation is always welcome and LSW tyres would be good to see added.

Never really understood why you guys ran with row crops anyway. I know you guys grow different crops (in rows) to most of Europe so it makes sense but I've seen plenty of huge acerage (online anyway) seeded with cereals and they still run a set of row crops. Too much expense or hassle to keep changing row crops to LSW? Did you guys always how the option of LSW's and just never used them or are they something new over there?

Its all about compaction to the field itself. Cheaper cost, No repairs compared to tracks, smoother ride. Plenty of youtube vids comparing LSW to tracks and all the advantages.

There is a lot of factors that has to be taken into consideration with corn as an example, ever heard of sidewall compaction? Corn stacks can also eat tires, because they are really stiff with huge rootballs.
Whatch this, I find this kind of stuff interesting
