El juego es muy bueno, pero estara bien que lanzar una actualizacin con remasterisacion y nueva funciones o algo otros vehculos, y que tenga ms opciones para poder uno personalizarlo los vehculos de como las camionetas de un supers personal Y tambin siempre manteniendo la versin vieja, y sacar una versin remasterizada as como hizo Rockstar con sus tres juegos famosos GTA San Andreas, GTA City, GTA tres, conservando sus juegos viejos y lanzando la versin remasterizada.
Ok to start of we are NOT A ROBOT and we do play the game. It is the best game when Im bored and tired like after we do some work or something, although its fun it still has a small amount of ways the game can definitely improve. Lets say we start by having bigger tractors and customization options like wheel weights or twin like in the later farming sim games. Also think about the more variety of the tractors, it would be so nice to have a variation of what we buy like maybe John Deer or Class as they would bring in more variety in the shop. Last you awesome Devs should think about adding better graphics and more land to roam and explore, with the addition of weather and fading mornings and evenings. Thanks for reading and Devs maybe take some of our advice.
Highly reccomend rather then spending money on the newer ones, we played this for 8 years and never had a single issue with the game, it has always, and will always be. We only ever spent like 10$ on it which kinda ruined the game save because we were broke and needed money bad . Love this game and we highly reccomend it.
We still play this game every day and it never fails to impress us. Ages well.
More levels and more vehicles perform 16 its great overall, but we need more levels and more vehicles to play with and raise up crop raise up the crop price a lot or we meant a little.
It don't have many ads and great graphics.
We hate the tilt and we dont know why its like this on the phone but not on tablet and it needs to have a option for arrow controls because we dont know how anyone cans stand that.
Can you guys get a flasher for our equipments.
Overall, the game is really fun to play. We like driving the semi trucks around and harvesting canola. Im almost 13 and we love the farming Sim 16. And farming Sim 22 we play both here and there. Thanks for making these games and keep going.
So literally when we were younger than we are right now we yoused to play for many many hours and Im so happy on how it turned out today and hope that it does realy good in the future.
Hey they need the John deer harvester.
We like this game but it get boring really fast with not a lot of equipment.
Pls add more John Deere and case 111.
We wish there was a bigger planter and also there is a verity of tractors could that be the same with combine so all we are asking is just a little more detail and it would be the best game on the market other wise great game.
As the title says, we dont think we need to add more on that.
We were a weak little lad at the start but now our life is truly impacted by this game we know own a multi million dollar company thanks to the skills we learned from this game. We personally think guns should be added to drop mass killings on chickens but could just be us. Oh say can u see by the doncer Lee lights.
You have to have Bluetooth on and start a multiplayer game then the other person has to make sure Bluetooth is on and hit the multiplayer button and on the left hand side it should pull up the game under some name. Great game and it has the fields spread out super well compared to newer versions.
You need to add a x9 John combine and a for wheel drive tractor of some sort. A VERY LOVING FAN OF THE GAME KEEP IT UP giant software.
Hey Rex65m, so this is how multiplayer works. For Apple phones(we have one) you can turn on your Bluetooth and connect to a nearby person or use the Wi-Fi to do that. You also have to first click on multiplayer then your world (even if it was created in a single player world) will show up on the left-hand side. If you are going to join someone else you will see their name on the right-hand side. (Plz notice that the other player also has to have Bluetooth or Wi-Fi enabled).
We like the game but we wish you have more options to choose from when buying equipment and trucks.
It is good just need more trucks and trailer.
Theyre so cheap! 1,000,000$ is only worth 2.99! Wow! ( Im not saying you should lower the prices).
The update for the new john deere is on apple but our friend has an amozone fire tablet and the tractor isnt on there we tryed to update already.
This like all of farming simulator games made by giants are never a let down they even updated the game 7 years after it was released and add a John deer thank you for all that you do and we cant wait for the next game.
Obviously, this game is not as good as the farming simulators on PC and console but it definitely meets the standards especially for being released in 2015. The graphics are pretty good and the game is 3D. It keeps you occupied with tasks and there is a decent amount of vehicles. All farming simulator games released by Giants Software are just on a different level than any other farming simulator. Even if you arent considering downloading this one you should DEFINITELY get a farming simulator made by Giants Software. Hint: it just says Farming Simulator and then a number. E.x. 14, 16, 18, 20, 23. Overall, great game.
We think you should add grain carts, gravity wagons, articulate tractors a John Deere combine and a lot more American brand companys for farming.
We wish that some stuff would be cheaper and that they would make it so there was a all track tractor but over all it is a good game and we would play it.
This beats all knockoffs. Lots you can do and lots of space to explore. We like all the official brands and realistic graphics. Tip: the lizard pickup is the best for deliveries.
Please extend a map because we already own everything on it we hope the creator sees this Please.
If you are a rancher/farmer… BUY! It is so fun! When we are going to our ranch we play this all the time so consider buying this game if you want a great experience.
Hey farming simulator if you get this message we just wanted to say the new update was really really good with the John Deere tractors and we were wondering if you could add more John Deere tractors we think it would make the game better and Ive been playing for so long. This game is so much fun so if you can put John Deere tractors, that would be very good and thank you if you get this message.
It is fun but it is not to because it only has one map and it gets boring to play after time but still good.
Hello. We would say this is pretty good for a game as old as us. Please make forestry cheaper.
Hi we loved this game because a couple years ago we had this game and grinded on it then we got it on our pc and the 7230r tractor you added isnt there plz fix cause we really looked forward to driving the 7230r.
So we really like the game just the only problem well, theres quite a few problems. Its just you cant get out of the vehicles and the vehicles are well. All of the vehicles are really slow and the map is not big enough and there are no mods. Im sorry but whoever made this game Im sorry its not good enough.
It would be better to have more equipment and to choose the map . We wander why traffic never comes down the road in front of the farm . It would also be better to have more forestry equipment options. Combine headers ,we would like to have different settings for them and separate header trailers . Graphics need to be updated. We would like the equipment to lift but not fold up. It would be nice to have fields that are not square but different shapes.
Great game but after we cut down a tree then use the stump grinder, the tree grows back invisible.
Please make it wear you can get out and add different bull breeds and add rodeos please and make it wear you can get on bulls.
Its just hard to turn and its not that fun at all.
We personally think it is a good and fun game we just think they should let you walk and add it to where you dont have to tab around to switch vehicles. Finally they should add dirt bikes, four wheelers, side by sides, and other maps.
We get confused to know which equipment belongs to a different vehicle.
We spent some time on this game and its pretty fun.
There needs to be more tractors more trucks and tte needs to be a way that we can get out side of the tractors.
It is really fun, but very few equipment options. Having bigger tractors from more companies like John Deere, Fendt, Claas, Versatile, more Newholland, and even more case would be great. Some more semis would also be better, and also auger carts too. It would be great to have more planter options. We also need more combines. It would be amazing to be able to create new fields. We also need front loaders and skid steers. We could also do with some tracked tractors like the fendt MT 1100, and big articulated tractors like John Deere 9r and 9rx. We could also even do with same case steigers and quad tracks. We also need round bales and tractors with working front hitches and attatchments. Being able to choose the map would also be great. Multiplayer also doesnt work for us, but Im probably doing it wrong. With these additions to the game, it will be amazing.
The game Is really fun and for free its great. Wish the multiplayer worked though.
We love the game and the new update, and we were really exited to see the new update and we are really appreciative of the bigger variety of tractors in the game. We recognize that the game is an older version of Farming Simulator, but that does not mean that it is not loved and played. After all, it is one of the latest ones that is free. We think that we should have more updates like the most recent one more often. And it could use a walking around feature. But overall it is a great game.
The game needs to get you a better tractor when you start the game the tractor is even worse than the starter tractor in fs14 overall its a good game but gives you bad equipment.
The game is very fun but its not letting us buy coins its like glitching.
Since installing the latest update, the game will no longer open. We really enjoyed playing this game, and would love to continue playing. Please take a look at it and try to resolve this issue. Thank you.
