In the game, a number of harvesters have the option to upgrade to more horsepower.
Do you actually notice a difference? They don't tow other equipment so they just have to haul themselves around. IRL I can imagine the need but in game why spend the extra cash?

Re: Harvester HP
Role play, mostly but sometimes the bigger headers will bog down a lower HP combine. I did just rent an Ideal 9T and was using a 16-row corn head on it. It barely had enough HP to get moving and would slow to less than 2mph on any type of hill. I imagine a 10T would've done a little better but didn't test it.
But generally speaking, the wider the header, the more HP you need. This is true for IRL too. But IRL, it's more about threshing capacity rather than having enough HP to run the header. Extra crop coming in faster takes a lot of power to thresh.

FS22 is the best one yet. Fight me!

You need more hp to keep up your speed when working on a field that isn't flat

Re: Harvester HP
If you use mod CombineXP, you will need each and every HP on your harvester.
Re: Harvester HP
Thanks. That helps.
I like to metagame and I have been doing cost benefit analysis of the different harvesters (currently I have only done grass work on my own fields)
Looks like the best buy for the buck is the Rostselmash Nova 330 if your not in a rush and can pop by often enough to unload it.
But, if you want to increase your harvesting rate, the best overall buy is the CaseIH Axial Flow 9250. which is more cost effective than two Nova 330's

Re: Harvester HP
The horsepower does matter at times. Level surfaces it isn’t much of a factor. But steep terrain it plays a big part.
