Farming Simulator 2022 8345

Just recently, the developers presented the first gameplay trailer for Farming Simulator 22. The release is scheduled for November 22 for PC, Mac, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and Stadia. Pre-orders are already available on the official website. It is possible to purchase the season pass with additional content right away, but we will talk about that in the next news update.

Farming Simulator 22 is the largest project in the series, according to the developers. However, after release, the game will be continuously improved, with new machinery, gameplay features, and expansions being added. Naturally, some of these will be paid. 
Today, let's talk about the Season Pass edition. This edition automatically adds new paid expansions to your library as they are released. It is much more cost-effective to buy the season pass once than to purchase new expansions separately each time. Believe me, it ends up being much cheaper. 
Season passes will be divided by year. You can already pre-order the first-year Season Pass, which grants you all paid expansions released for FS22. Period: from launch until fall 2022. Everything released during this time will be free for season pass holders.
Currently, 4 expansions are planned for the first year: 3 packs and one major expansion. It is quite possible that other expansions will be released during this time, but you will receive at least 4 expansions. 

So, it's time to learn more about the FS22 maps. Haut-Beyleron is the third map for the game. We have already talked about the two previous maps: Erlengrat and Elmcreek. But there was no information about Haut-Beyleron. As some guessed from the name, the action of this map takes place in France.
As with other maps, Haut-Beyleron is not just a small location in France, but a location influenced by different regions of France. Here you will see various colorful places: rivers, hills. But that's just the beginning. In the central part of the map, there is an old French castle.
Don't forget about the observatory, which opens its dome in the evenings, the gondolas floating along the rivers, and much more. Sometimes you just want to leave your tractor and enjoy the views. By the way, this is possible and even highly recommended, because you don’t see such beauty every day. Switch from the tractor to the wheel of a regular car and enjoy the scenery.
Your perfect vineyard!
Of course, in France you will have the perfect opportunity to create your own individual, beautiful, and profitable vineyard, as well as production facilities. This map is simply ideal for the new crops that will appear in the game. In particular, the already beautiful landscape will become even more stunning with grapes and olives.
However, don’t forget about the climate of this area. It is quite likely that snow will begin in winter, which will significantly complicate the farmer’s work. If seasonal gameplay is enabled in the settings, you will have to perform additional tasks in winter to avoid ruining your farm.

It's time to learn more about the machinery, objects, and tools awaiting us in Farming Simulator 22. Starting today, the developers will be regularly publishing information about various equipment every Friday, right up until November 22 – the game's release date. In this article, we invite you to take a look at several interesting models. In the screenshots, you will see not only the machinery itself but also prices, power, and other specifications. 

Great news for those who prefer to play FS22 with their friends. There will be crossplay between game versions on different platforms! This means you will be able to play with each other regardless of where the game was purchased. Something similar was recently added for SnowRunner, but only between Steam and Epic Games Store.
Information about crossplay in FS22
Let's discuss in more detail and answer some frequently asked questions about crossplay in Farming Simulator 22. First of all, many are interested in which platforms will support crossplay. In fact, there are quite a few platforms: personal computers, Mac, next-generation consoles Playstation 5 and Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, previous-generation consoles Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia. Yes, there are many platforms, and you will be able to play with friends even if you have a console and your friend has a PC. 
How many players can play simultaneously via crossplay? Actually, this is quite interesting, because if possible – it’s better to be the host on a PC. The thing is, if the server (host) is activated through a PC, the maximum number of players is 16 slots. However, if the host is running on a console – the maximum number of players will be 6. Naturally, if playing on separate dedicated servers, this number may change.
What if you only have a console but the slots are not enough? If you don’t have enough 6 slots to play with friends and none of you have a PC – there is a solution. You can rent a dedicated server through the Nitrado system, and then the 6-player limit will be increased to 16. 
Can the crossplay system be disabled? Actually, yes. You can filter out servers that support crossplay. However, is there any point in this? The controls are made quite convenient, so PC players will not have gameplay advantages as many think. But it’s nice that such an option exists.
How will saves work in crossplay? Unfortunately, only the host can save the game. Regular players do not have this option. Their progress is not saved.
How will this work with DLCs and mods? You will need to keep a close eye on this if you want to play with friends. All players must have the same mods and DLCs installed as the host, otherwise there will be no cooperative play. If someone is missing even one mod – they will not be able to join the server. Meanwhile, players on Google Stadia can only play on servers with no mods at all, and console owners can only play on servers where either there are no mods or only those mods that are available on the official ModHub page for consoles.
Slots on consoles. Yes, consoles have strict limitations, so-called slots, which limit the maximum number of vehicles, objects, and so on. The server sets a slot limit (the lowest slot count among players determines the overall server limit). If the server already has more slots than the console supports – it will be impossible to join that server. 
Text and voice chat. Another very interesting point. Yes, there will be a general chat, but there are nuances. Only players on personal computers can write in the text chat. However, everyone else will be able to see the text, even if they cannot type a reply. Voice chat, however, is available to all.
Other interesting details
We’ve covered the frequently asked questions, now let’s discuss a few details. It’s worth noting that multiplayer in FS22 will be much more fun than in FS17 or FS19, because there are many more gameplay features (just look at the production chains). 
Equally important – the game now has a proper character editor that allows you to create your own character, your unique style, and show your style to other players in multiplayer. That’s about it!
Are you happy with this news and will you use crossplay in FS22? Write your answer in the comments!

Recently, we talked about the fact that Farming Simulator 22 will have its own editor for creating unique characters. This feature is mainly designed for multiplayer gameplay, so players can show off their style to each other and have characters that look different from one another. Today, we will tell you more about this feature and provide some interesting screenshots.
Many people are first interested in what can be changed in the character’s appearance. Actually, quite a lot:
Body type;Hairstyle;Presence or absence of a beard, beard style;Mustache, if you don’t like a beard;Various clothing: shirts, tank tops, pants, shoes, headwear, and even glasses!
In general, the developers give you complete freedom in creating your character, and this feature appeared as a bonus for crossplay! 
Create your own character!
First of all, you should choose the overall look of your character in the Characters field. Here you can select skin color and body type—in short, the main characteristics of your character. Choose a beard, mustache (or none), and hairstyle.
The most interesting part begins when selecting your character’s clothing. Here you will have a huge selection. You can dress in plain, unremarkable clothes or wear clothing with logos of your favorite brands: Case IH, CLAAS, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, and so on.
There’s no point in saying much more—just take a look at the screenshots to get an idea of some of the possible options for customizing your character’s appearance and available clothing. Don’t forget to leave a comment with your thoughts about this feature. It will be interesting to read and discuss! 

Farming Simulator 22 is just around the corner. Opinions vary. Some players believe the game will be a failure from the start, while others say FS22 is just a plain clone of Farming Simulator 19. But is that really the case? It's hard to say for sure since the game hasn't been released yet, but in this article, we'll try to figure out what really sets FS22 apart from its predecessor. 
Production Chains
The first thing that comes to mind is production chains. This is quite a controversial point, as some say this feature has long existed in FS19 thanks to mods. But let's look at it from another perspective. If you think logically, so many mods were created for FS19 that coming up with something new on your own is almost impossible: modders have covered everything.


But the very fact that the developers have thoroughly worked on and added features from popular mods into the base game is not a bad thing—in fact, it’s quite the opposite. Now modders will have much more time and energy to work on new ideas, and the game’s own capabilities will open new doors for mod creators.
Being able to process flour into bakery products, grapes into raisins, and so on is a very important part of the gameplay, since not all players use mods, and modders don’t always manage to update their projects to the latest game version. With this, such problems and constant updates can be forgotten. 
Crossplay
This news delighted many fans of the series. We have already mentioned that FS22 will feature crossplay between all available and current platforms: PC, Mac, PlayStation 4 and 5, previous-generation Xbox, next-generation Xbox, and other platforms.
If you like playing with your friends or just want to meet new people, there will be no barriers for you, as PC players will be able to play with console players. 
It’s worth noting that such a feature is very rare. Take SnowRunner, for example, which doesn’t even have proper crossplay between the two PC stores: Steam and Epic Games Store, let alone crossplay between different platforms. 
The real question is how the developers will implement this. It’s hard to judge until the game is released, but we can hope they will keep their word and deliver a high-quality experience. 
New Types of Equipment – Gameplay Variety
Yes, Farming Simulator 22 will have a lot of new and old equipment. However, we’re not just talking about different cultivators. This concerns completely new machinery used if you grow new crops, and FS22 will start with 3 of them. 

If you decide to grow grapes or olives, you will need to perform a series of additional actions to harvest, and you won’t be able to do without new specialized equipment. This really adds a lot of variety to the gameplay. 
Also, don’t forget that new crops are grown differently and require a special approach to farm care to achieve the best results. If you want to build a truly beautiful vineyard and create a unique farm, you can do it without any mods.
Precision Farming and Other Additions
For a long time, the developers created expansions for FS19. Players loved precision farming, which brought a lot of interesting features to the game. This expansion significantly improved gameplay variety.

Although it took quite a while for this expansion to be released for FS19, it is already known that precision farming will be included in FS22. And you won’t have to pay for it—it will be provided for free with the base game. Consequently, the gameplay has become much better, and many old expansions will be integrated into the base game. 
Improved Engine, Enhanced Sounds
This is a very important aspect that many have underestimated. As we reported earlier, the game engine has been significantly improved. This means the graphics will be much better (especially considering the dynamic surface changes with parallax effects). Yes, the game has made a leap forward graphically, although many didn’t notice it in the videos. As we know well, developers tend to exaggerate, and trailer and gameplay videos often differ greatly from the final game. Will this be the case with FS22? Maybe, but only to a minor extent. We can’t predict in advance; the wait is almost over.
It’s quite possible that this improved engine will open new opportunities for modders. We don’t yet know 100% how deeply Giants Engine 9 has been reworked, but it’s likely modders will have plenty to work on.
And let’s not forget about the sounds. The overall sound has been significantly improved. Special attention is deserved by the dynamic change effect of exhaust, engine, and other sounds for a higher quality game experience. 
Built-in Seasons Effect, New Construction Mode, Character Editor
Let’s discuss some of the latest very interesting details, some of which have become known to us quite recently. Everyone probably knows about the Seasons mod. The developers have added an improved seasons system to the game. This affects not only the visual aspect but also directly impacts gameplay. This setting can always be turned off, but then the gameplay will suffer.

If you enable seasons, you will have to carefully monitor the calendar, because certain crops must be grown in specific seasons to get a good quality harvest and, of course, profit. And visually, everything will look very cool, if we believe the developers.
The next interesting features are the construction mode and character editor. It’s quite simple. Construction mode is a very useful feature, especially considering production chains. You will have to build various buildings, and a dedicated mode will be helpful here. The character editor is designed so you can create your unique farmer, choose their clothing and overall appearance, and show your individuality in multiplayer (and with such a cool crossplay feature, this will come in very handy).
And that brings our article to a close, dear readers. Please write in the comments what you think about the upcoming FS22. We remind you that this article is based on news from the developers. We are not advertising FS22; we are simply writing based on known facts.
