Agricultural Simulator 2013?

Stay away from games like this. The creators/publishers are doing a horrible job each and every year on all their products. They just aim to make a quick buck, do not support their games, nor their "community".

I wouldn't even pirate this crap, really.

That's more or less how I see these little sims.

A Farming Sim is kind of a cool idea...but I guess these games aren't done well at all.

UIG has released 4 versions of ag sim and Every one has had exactly the same bugs on release

,2013 has had 8 months to get fixed and it's still crap - i'd promised myself i wouldn't buy another version but is decided to grab it a couple of weeks ago when the gold version was on sale at gamersgate ,anyway i knew there was going to be problems when i installed it and it crashed when i went to make an account,(yes online drm which means you can't play it offline when uig's servers go boom!).
After that fun i tried to update it download patch ,install then crash - rinse and repeat till it's up to date

Get the thing running then the fun really started ,between crashing every 15-20 minutes I had issues with implements sliding under the tractor so not being able to hook them up in the tutorials ,or restart after a crash and the implements floating in mid air and separated into it's component parts

The recommender system requirements are an out and out lie ,I've got a system that smokes the recommended but to only way to get acceptable frame rates is to turn all the graphics options to low - when it was released on steam ,one of the devs admitted that to get the kind of images in the screenshots you needed an Nvidia Titan card....

Get Farming Simulator 2013 instead ,not as many options but it works and there's a ton of mods and maps for it if you want to change the default gear.

DRM?! IN A FARMING SIMULATOR!?

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot guys....

I'm immediately turned off to this game. A DRM Free version might be cool...

Uhm... why?

I mean, why should a whatever simulator not have DRM protection? The type of game doesn't really matter, it is simply a *protection* system...

I tried Agricultural Simulator once or twice, but from what a friend of mine keeps saying to me, I hear that the developers are horrible.

I mean, with games like Call of Duty, you can argue that it isn't worth buying each new edition, as there simply aren't enough improvements every year. But at least they fix their bugs and make improvements.

Agricultural Simulator has the same bugs version after version. I mean, seriously, why can't they focus on fixing the damned thing before releasing a new version.

I just don't like anything to do with DRM.

It goes for any sim...but I was interested in this particular game...

Bugs and DRM.... I'll pass...

Well we all here hate DRM, I'm quite sure of that. But I don't see why certain games are not entitled to have one?

I dont mind drm as such ,but UIG has used an activation code for all previous versions ,but with this one they've decided on an activation code AND an always online drm which is rather excessive ,it's just another un-needed issue with this thing.
