60 of 163 · most liked firstA wasted potential...again This is another broken game i decided to try and it's just as i expected. First. The developer is well known for doing broken games and abandoning them right after release. He communicates before release and some time after, promise things and when he gets enough sales he disappears and start working on another broken game. So don't trust the developer and publisher, they're lying right into your face. Sad part about this game is not that it's broken and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Missed opportunity , had so much promised, but was a hurried release. Developers did not fix the flaws which were apparant in the alpha videos/ pictures ( eg bouncing tractors, tractors floating, blurry graphics etc etc ). Has all the ingredients ( which the Farm Simulator series doesn't have ) , to be a success , but needs to be polished ( patched !! ) a lot. In its current state, i can not recommend this game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What is Farm Expert 2017? Farm Expert 2017 is developer Silden’s second entry into their farming simulation franchise. This follows on from last year’s effort. They have also previously made Farm Machines Championships 2014, Trucker 2 and non-farm or vehicle games including Chernobyl Commando and Manhunter. The developer is constantly striving to make better games. However, none of their games have thus far been met with a positive overall rating on Steam. Expectations Ainslie’s (my long…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Why I chose to refund... The videos , hype , advertisement and beta testers made this look better than it turned out. The controls are wonky and often confusing, at first. Because it's only $2.00 cheaper than full retail cost I've requested a refund until such time that the developers fix and optimize the game a bit more. On first launch the game froze , then ultimately crashed. Rebooted the PC and was able to launch. Controller support is lacking badly at this stage. Mine (Logitech F310)…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seriously, I'ts a very good idea with more realistic physics and all... IF it works, and it don't. Tractor bouncing like crazy on flat road the tracks from wheels are urealisticly deep in dry mud. I haven't played it long enough to make a statement on the rest of the gameplay but I feel I will wait for FS2017 and put my money there instead. It's a pity because this devs really consentrated on the things FS lacks but only their ideas were good :(
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DMCA this. Loosers.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have a few hours into the game now and can honestly say there are no major issues at all. The physics for driving on the roads are not perfect, so just drive carefully but the rest of the stuff in this game makes up for that. All the crop and fruit planting are far more realistic than FS 15. It will really pay you to do All the tutorials. As for the wingers out there FS 15 has still got bugs example: turn on your lights and game freezes.. I think it's great what these Devs have done with this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Motto: If you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree , it will always feel stupid compared to a monkey. For the experts, this game is like an Early Acces, For new players, the gamea looks prommising. I am not a farming simulator expert but I think this Farm Expert 2017 is better then Farming Simulator 15. it has better terrain physics and animations plus it looks more detailed. Consider the game a mixture of Spintires and FS15. It also has some repairing vehicle features similar to Farm…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I want to play this game longer to give it a more detailed review, but the gameplay is just so horrible, I can't bring myself to it. The pnuematic tires react to the terrain as if they were bouncy beachballs, not forgiving like in real life. The tractor bounces around at any speed, not only at higher speeds. The camera angles change wildly sometimes, the game keeps crashing (using a newer $2,000 laptop), the view in the distance is blurred, so its hard to know what your surroundings are. The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →are you a farm ♥♥♥♥♥♥ like me? are you an armchair tractor driver, toiling away in the driver's seat until you get bedsores? then listen for a minute. farming sims are a dime a dozen nowadays, but where this game succeeds is presenting an incredible amount of detail, at the expense of smoother production values. do you feel like spraying FDA-approved artifical fertilizer on your fields? your wheel treads will ruin spots that have been sown. tough luck, you gotta be careful. your equipment…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has a lot of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and bugs, but they will be ironed out over time. Some of the auto features don't work everytime yet, like getting the AI to bring in the crop for you. Overall, this game is like a cross between spin-tires and a farming simulator, (because of the soil dynamics), but the vehicles are very buggy just now, (one week in from the release date). In gear 2, your tractor leaps into the air and floats like it is filled with hot air! If you want a fully working game,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its S H I T and the Developers have also given up on it Game froze in 83 minutes at least 10 times and at this point i started googling how to get 83 minutes of my life back. Always nice to see Developers not any Bugs. My Advice, DON'T BUY THIS GAME. Your Welcome.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I never seem to post reviews of games I play but feel i need to with this one. It was a great concept from the outset and from what i have seen on the internet. So i decided to go out and buy the game to give it a try, whilst it was on offer for £3 on the sale. I started the game and went into the tutorial to learn how to play it. Within 10 mins of the tutorial starting I found 2 bugs, one of which basically means you can't continue to tutorial. The keybind for un hitching the trailer…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pros: Variety of things to do Terraforming Can Destroy Crops by running them over Hire Workers and see them Graphics not too bad Weather effects are good Cons Very Buggy and Unfinished Vehicle physics are Terrible Some Vehicles Don't work Sounds are inconsistant and loud some very annoying Animals Dont require care at all No Economy Bad Translations Sloppy Menus Lots of Un-licensed equipment and vehicles / lacks realism Map Missing roads and looks pooly done Lots of Skipping through the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So let me start out by saying this game is not perfect.. it does have its issues.. With that said the vision here is great and for a game I spent 17 bucks on its pretty amazing. I know that the dev will work out the issues and refine it.. I would like better wheel support for sure. If you download this game expecting Farming Simulator just stop now because this game is completely different. If you liked FS with MR mod you will like this game.. granted its not nearly as refined but I am…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bearing in mind i've only played a couple of hours here are my thoughts,I had an initial problem with the game crashing half way during map loading this was sorted by re-downloading,but the devs responded to my query within 10 mins so kudos for that,i got into the game but didn't like the bloom effects seemed to make the game very blurry but good news is you can turn that off so much crisper now.Frame rates are great running at 50fps all maxed out except bloom effects are off, my machine is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I only played about 20 minutes. I love farming games, but this just felt unfinished. In the 20 minutes I played I found 3 spelling mistakes. It felt like it was just rushed out without any care for quality control. Refunded.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I know this game has a lot of negative reviews, and I was not expecting much when I bought it as I dipped my toes into a farming game for the first time. Yes it has bugs, like AI workers going round in circles on certain fields, but you can work around the bugs. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by what this game offered, Nice graphics and animation, models are ok and the field work is great, with the terrain deformation. The straw baling is excellent, you can even pick up the bales to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Avoid this thing like the plague! ,can't even finish the tutorial for this pos ,and it appears that the issue is a long term one with no attempt by the developers to fix - I wish I could refund this garbage but I stuck with it for slightly too long so I can't even have the satifaction of atleast pulling my money back out of the pockets of this lot!!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dont buy this ♥♥♥♥. Multiplayer doesnt work, engine is total ♥♥♥♥. For ♥♥♥♥ sake, when do these guys learn from their mistkakes. Exactly the same glitches and bugs as in the previous versions. The concept is great but this doesn't look anything like something playable. Had my hopes for this one, but there is regret again and again and again...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So nice to have a farming sim that has more than 4 crops and more to do with animals. Even has orchards and herbisides/pestasides/lime etc. A true farming sim at last and no chainsaw needed as its not a lumberjack game. Few bugs here and there, but who cares, to busy doing so much in this game, about time someone did it correctly instead of a half ass Ipad poop/port. 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well. i was really happy to get this game..but i simply cant play it...! FPS is just awwfull..with my rig i played GTA 5 maxed out..in here on min or max always 7-11 FPS really? well looks like Performance is worse then FE 2016. Sorry but No from me.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I recently bought this game during the summer sale. And i love it. Despite the bad reviews i bought it and its amazing. I dont know if the devs fixed most of the bugs but i havent experienced one bug since i started playing. There are so many aspects of this game that other games in this Genre didnt event think of. You start with only a silo for wheat you then have to build and upgrade them. Your tractors need servicing. You loose traction on wet terain. Needles to say i am looking forward to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I write here a small what do i think about this game review. I had owned the previous farming expert 2016 version, that i recently deleted from my steam account. That version was really a big mess. The developer of that and this game made some fixes to FE16 that solved some heavly problems, also some of them stayed in the game.. That made the game just worthless and no any chances to playing it again.. They also promised to still improve that game.. But because of FE17 i dont think they dont…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →game has some good ideas but the controls are kinda clunky and there's currently a lot of bugs. by far the worst part is that the game makes me very dizzy. everything seems a little blurry and you have wind blowing crops, trees, grass ect back and forth which makes it hard to actually focus things i really like that more popular games like Farming Simulator 15 lacks is a large crop selection, upgradable buildings and character skills but those alone can't make up for the issues for now i'm…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Now I read the reviews that said this game was bad, but i also read the ones saying it had potential. It has gameplay concepts that Farming Simulator 17 or 19 dont have, like orchards, that I was exciting to try. But the game itself is straight up broken. Not just bad bugs and glitches broken, not figuratively unplayable, its LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE. I tried the tutorial, but the game never loaded. I tried a career mode game, and after trying to turn 90 degrees at 5 fps, I pressed Escape to open…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got this as part of a sale package for my 7 year old grandson. As bad as he wants to play this, it keeps crashing after the opening screen. Garbage.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not buy the game, Not worth a penny..
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I had given up on this game until someone in the Farmer's Dynasty discussions mentioned Farm Expert having some of the same repair features. I reloaded the game and tried the Hard Terrain map. Wow! Impressed. And now excited to get playing more of Farm Expert 2017 and seeing where it leads.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So before I start I must say DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE A MASSIVE FARMING SIMULATOR THE GAME MADE BY GIANTS. Also a shoutout to my mate for buying me this game. The Reason i say this is because Farm Expert is an INDIE GAME!! Not a game made by a full blown studio such as GIants, yes the game does run like crap but thats because you need a good PC to play this. Make sure to meet the MINIMUM Specs: OS: Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or better Processor: Core i3 3.1 GHz or AMD Phenom II X3 2.8 GHz…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Iv played a lot longer than profile says as iv been playing in offline mode as mates take piss i play farming sim games lol. The game has great potential and deffo a step in the right direction as far as farming sims go but it dose need a bit of work fixing bugs and a few issues but its no where near as bad as some of the people are making out on these reviews section. The realism side of things as i said is a step in the right direction and i brought this due to farming sim 17 just looks like…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this for 1.99 today on sale. I see why the review's are so bad. The control's are a nightmare. The graphic's are not too bad. The control's are a nightmare...yep so bad I had to say it twice. The bulding is cool but I couldn't do anything with the house or what I assume is a chicken coup. May have to be unlocked. When attaching implement's the tractor jump's. Layed over onto it's side once. I know you are suppose to "play a game for hour's" before you review but I just couldn't. It is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →to me is this game very nice and enjoyable we can put our own music and sounds too which allow us to our favorite music as ingame radio i not see any bugs which other are posting instead they do hard working on fixing issues i not even notice :) i like the graphic and the big tractors (most iam looking at the nice wheel moving as i drive slow on the field ) even more i like the nice ground forming as we drive over on our big wheels it is a good feeling which all the other games can not…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When considering this game, one should also consider it's price tag. What do you expect? Yes, the game has a heap of bugs. Yes the game's physics are a bit weird. Basically, what SILDEN trys to do is to provide a little more realistic spin on farming than the rather arcady market leader while being enjoyable as a game (ploughing at 15 km/h? Not in this game. Although, you could - it is only very hard to control). Machines get dirty and decay - but can be fixed. The ground is dynamic…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely demanding of your computer. While mine is not High End, it is entireley capable of running many a complex game such as Spintires, GTA V, Watch_Dogs. But something is very wrong here with the needs for this game to run smoothly, unless you have a powerful machine, don't buy.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →do not buy this game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have been playing this for 127 hours and I only had a few minor bugs.The game works very well and I never had any crash or freeze. I think that some bugs depend on what omputer is used. I have windows 10 and a dualcoreprocessor. The game was abandond before it was finnished so there is some incorrect information in the game and some things were never implemented like there is tractors with manual gearbox but manual svitching is not implemented so they work as a permanent cvt2. One thing I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm a believer. They will someday rival (and in someways surpass) the Farm Sim Series. Note the progression: Farm Expert 2016, ambitious and deeply incomplete. Farm Expert 2017, most of the 2016 problems fixed, just minor issues now, rapidly being fixed. Oh, the things you can do in Farm Expert that you can only dream of in Farm Sim! If you want a more polished version I'd suggest waiting at least one month, until say Oct 1, 2016. They've got a few updates on the way.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well this game isn't that bad as people are suggesting in their reviews. Yeah the graphics don't look top notch but I haven't encountered any bugs while playing and given that up to this point I wasn't really a fan of simulation games this actucally kept me wanting to play more. Devs have some patching to do but overall I would recommend it and give it a chance.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →its a ok game im not into farming games but i love games
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i don't know why did i bought this....
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At it's base this is a very good farming game. It can be played hands on like FS 17 etc. or as a management sim as hired workers will tend almost anything. The poor rating I leave the game is because it is still buggy as heck and the last release version , Hard Terrain , was never finished. Some fun to be had but not at full price so wait for a DEEP discount.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →why the ***** did i buy this game? don't trust the trailers they're really lie. i have gtx 1080 but this game have really ♥♥♥♥ graphic and really bad controlls. such a waste...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, it has much better graphics, physics and more content than No Man's Sky!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At first when I was looking into the game I was skeptical about ti as it looked to be just a cheap nock off of Farming simulator by giants. But I chose to take the risk and purchase the game with the knowledge I could refund it. After I started the tutorials my view on the game changed. It was on par if not better then Farming Simulator and I am so glad I bought it. I feel as though this is a complete different game were as the farming simulator as just copies of the last one with new maps and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →FE17 does have some bugs here and there but in there defense what new release games don't? does it deserve a poor rating no it does not, we can not set and compare fe17 to fs15 plain and simple they simular games but still in there own catogory when it comes to farm simulator game, look at fs08 how bad was that game? then after 5 more version and alot of modders help look at what the game has become with the help of the community! FE17 has alot of good potential if we the gamers put in our…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR - Game is far too buggy to recommend, unless you really want a hardcore difficultly version of FS. The feature list of FE2017 looks great. Unlike Giants Farm Simulator, this game strives to be more realistic. There is an actual calendar that determines when you can grow crops, the game differentiates from fertilizer, herbicides, and fungicides, many of the tractors have actual gearboxes instead of CVTs like FS, and of course there's the deformable terrain. On top of that, the game…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought the game as a warm up towards the new Farming Simulator 2017 that comes in October. I can not tell you about the quality of Farm Expert, because I have not got so far that I have tried it. The game either crashes at start, or when I try to load a game. This includes the tutorials. Sometimes i get to play aprox. 3-9 min before the screen goes black. You can hear the engine running or the player jumping, but the screen is black. After 3 mins of black screen windows gives me the message…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ok , I'm new to farming sim genre .i thought to myself , eh what the hell lets try this . And you know what ? Its been more fun than I expected . I got to ride in a tractor , plant things . watch nice view and been enjoing myself. And let me tell you there is so much yet to do. So to summarize ,This game is nice little sruprise and if you want to have some stress free fun , go ahead and try it .
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →worst part of the game is that you arnt given a help menu
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i cant even play this. bad game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awful Game, Crashes all the time. Tutorials dont work, complete waste of money. I think this game would be good if it was stable. Would NOT recommend!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ok, so i bought this game half a year ago and was blown away by the potential. I saw devs working on the game so i gave it a positive review and decided to come back to play it when its in finished state. Sadly devs stopped working on the game a couple weeks after that, which they have a history of doing before with previous games. Therefore i feel obliged to change my review. This game is not worth the money in its current state. It is an unfinished product. I'll boycott these developers in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is way to buggy. According to the changelog, they have fixed all the bugs, but they haven't released any accessible updates. Untill they get their act together, I cannot recommend this game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yes it is a bit bumpy around the edges, but feature wise this is miles ahead of the FS series. If you just look at crops - pest control, fungal control, weed control, as well as the usual fertiliser. The range of products you can grow is staggering compared to FS's 6 (7 if you count trees...). There are more animals, and the breed, workers are much better coordinated, and don't cost STUPID amounts of money. (Not sure I'd pay €100 for an acre of ploughing.. Maybe half that - but not like…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good concept, but poorly executed. Graphics are really bad, looks like it's for tablets or smartphones. If there weren't so many bugs and glitches then I would even keep the game, but €17,99 is just too much, maybe €7,99. So yeah, going for full refund. Seriously, don't buy and waste your time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →MP Dosen't work. Fix it?? no? any one?? >_> waste of money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →NO HELL NO so now you know do not buy this with the idea of being able to get people to connect to your server ever. open port 8766 24014-24016 and nothing disable all software and hardware firewall still nothing. Now to the game itself looks good but motion blur is to strong and makes me feel sick. Just wait and get Farm Sim 17
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not as polished as Farm sim, but still good fun!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not worth the price not recommended save your money and get farming simulator 17
