Possible ofcourse, but the Katana has a German plate: https://farming-simulator.com/cms/uploa ... 842401.jpg

Based on where the machines from? I think Massey has a French factory, and Fendt is probably of German origin.

Massey is Canadian, Ferguson was in the UK, then they moved to the US before being bought out by agco who manufactures a lot of there small tractors in France or Duluth Georgia. So there origin is Canadian saying otherwise is like saying GM and Ford are Mexican brands.

I wasn’t referring to country the brands from, but place of manufacture.
That Massey is French (if built in same place as the 8700’s)
And the Fendt is almost definitely German built without looking it up.

It depends on where you are in the world, agco manufacturers their tractors in different places all over the world, all the article you posted says it’s where they’re manufactured in Europe. Massey is built in multiple countries including Canada yet, I think you’re googling yourself in a hole.

:lol:
I never said Massey was a French company, I said that tractor in the screenshot (with a French plate) was built in France. And the Fendt Katana chopper is built in Germany and has a German plate. So a reasonable hypothesis from our sample size of 2 is that machines will be plated with the country they were built in. (Deere (7R, 8R, 9R, CNH (Magnum/T8, Steiger/T9), and Agco (Challenger/Fendt tracked and 4wds)machines would be interesting as they are built in the US)
So what hole am I “Googling” [sic] for myself?
The fact apparently no one understands “Based on where the machines from?” Is different from “Based on where the company is based/from?”

Guys dont look at the main factory of the brands.In the first blog post on FS site there are 3 machines.
Fendt with German plates, JohnDeere with US plates and MF with French plates.
3 maps = 3 plates , btw looks at the manual of the game on Collectors Edition there is a scenerio looking like this:

Moreover, there was a French flag on the FS22 launch counter.

Might be, just would’ve sworn it had a Swiss flag.
So far the list:
Massey 8S, French plates, Built in France, French Map?
Deere 9R, US/NA Spec, Built in US (Waterloo, Ia), Midwest/US map
Fendt Katana, German plates, Built in Germany, German(?) Map

You’re missing what I’m saying, Massey gets manufactured all over so does Case and John Deere. So you think giants is opening the doors on real tractors seeing where they’re stamped from and that’s what they’re basing everything on? So in that case I’m pretty sure most their equipment would have Austrian plates. Pretty sure the guy above is right and the plates only indicate map locations
