Cattle and Crops

Early Access Review "Good Thing wants to have a while" First of all: Unfortunately, there is only a "Yes" or a "No" here when Recommending. There is no "whirlwind," but a "No" would not be right at the moment. Where an Agricultural Simulator, like C & C, is doing, should be clear. The Reason why I am writing a Review here is because of the many, sometimes unjustifiably negative, reviews. Comments such as "ridiculous Game," "only runs with 30 FPS," "no Good Engine Noises," "no Multiplayer," "Steering Wheel does not," "AI does not work," ETC. Dear people ... It is an Early Access version at the alpha stage. Anyone who can read is clearly at an Advantage, because the Developers said that the Game has currently been limited to 30 FPS For development reasons. That won't remain the final Value, but the Performance Optimization of a Game Doesn't happen until the very End. And Engine noise is certainly still being revised and The Multiplayer is certainly Still making Inroads. And definitely steering Wheels work, at least my G27 works impeccably. Many obviously compare C & C to Giants Agriculture Simulator. Clearly C & C also wants to make everything better. It is forgotten that the LS has been developed (and further developed) since 2006. LS2008, LS2009, LS2011, LS2013, LS2015, LS2017 and soon LS2019 ... That's 7 Generations and with a Development Time of almost 13 Years, has this brought exactly how much Innovation from Version to Version? C & C has been used since 2 (?) Years developed. Let's Take a look at the LS17 WITHOUT Mods. What do we get for it? Tractors, Combine Harvesters, Hackers, wood complezers, ploughing, grubbers, saw, harvest, fertilize, animals, a strunzun-shessential Helper, Still no dynamic ground, Multiplayer, mod support. What makes the LS interesting? The arcade-heavy gameplay? Driving Physics? The rectangular, "help-friendly" Fields? Or is it the Mods, such as driveControl, Courseplay, GearboxAddon, Seasons, MORE Realistic, IC, MP Manager & Fabrikscript or The many Maps with loving Details? Yes, it's the Mods and not the vanilla game. What do we get at C & C at this early Stage of Development? Tractors, Combine Harvesters, Hackers, ploughing, Grubbers, saw, harvesting, fertilising, cows, a helper AI that is already superior to that of the Standard LS (Also that of the LS19), dynamic Ground, Mod support, dynamic Weather, real Driving physics (moreRealistic), Catchment Animations on Machines, Calculation Of each Plant in Motion, no uniform, repeatedly copied trees, Quest system, management system (which only arrives in a similar Form in the LS19), Simulation difficulties Adjustable. In terms of basic Functions, C & C is already the better Simulator, even if vehicle Selection is still limited. Masterbrain Bytes include some Modders who, at their Creative Time in LS's mod community, delivered the Innovations that kept the LS alive. Giants, Too, cast People away from the Modder Scene or do you think Forestry in the LS15 was an Idea of Giants? Didn't much more the 13-Era forest mod lead to it? The Success of the kevink98 MP manager has ensured Giants implemented something similar in the 19s. The Lighting of the Vehicles can be traced back to the Light script of Sven333b from 2011 ... The only Mistake you can accuse the Guys & Girls of Masterbrain Bytes is the far Too early start of the Early access phase. The People who have invested money by Crowdfunding and during the EA want to see Results at some point, otherwise the Game dusts faster than thought in the digital Drawer. The Fact Is, however, that C & C offers more Simulation compared to the vanilla version of the LS, with 85% less Development time. And the Makers listen to their Community, unlike Giants. The Players always make Wishes to Giants, who are sparsely, lovelessly or not implemented. Once again, the modders will have to judge the Modders again for the 19s. Conclusion: Stay fair with your Reviews, look outside the Box, look at facts objectively and give the Project the time it needs. I firmly believe that for the major release, something Big comes out.
