hello it's ricardo and welcome back to farming simulator 2022. i've been looking forward to
this game for quite some time and for those who have followed the channel and my streams you've
heard me go on and on and on and on about it and how i might very much fancy a good
look and a good go at this game good simulation game okay so what we're going to do in this video
farming simulator 2022 we're going to look at the settings those are the settings the
downloadable content and i pre-ordered this so i got a few items on the pre-order and also
starting up the game configuring your farmer all right and creating your character so straight off
the bat we're gonna go down to the options setting now with any sort of game like this the option
setting you've got at the top language your multiplayer language and your input help mode
now it does ask you when you start the game up do you want to configure this for you know
controllers joysticks throttles all that sort of thing i'm going to be using the keyboard
at least the time being um also you've got eye tracking for eye tracking devices here i mean
i'm not sure if my logitech will do it uh but i haven't got anything specific to do eye tracking
so we're gonna leave that as it is we've got force feedback as well well we don't want
any of that force feedback uh not that i'm using any sort of joypad that supports that
we'll leave the invert y look as it is as off and then down to the sound settings you can set
your general sound setting and your music the sound of the vehicles the environments
all that sort of stuff depending on how much ambience you want what your settings are gonna be
once you've made any changes here click on apply just so it's all saved uh next down
we've got display settings now i'm going to be running this in 4k i've got my 3080 supreme rtx
so i'm kind of hoping it's going to give me a good rich experience um so i've got on very high
it's 2160 so 4k got my vsync on running it in window mode because my other machine is running
stream labs that sort of thing and i've got my resolution scaling
and all that good stuff done at the bottom you'll notice as well advanced graphics settings now this
is where you can go through and add things like dlss all that sort of stuff um should you want to
and it really is you know your own choice as well if you want to use all this sort of stuff it
depends on the performance and um the quality of the game when you get it so i got things generally
set to very high and high all the shadows got me beacon lights turned on good texture resolution
you know you've got low or high very high low medium high so there's different qualities of
detail in regards to different settings as well so i would you know invite you to go
through all of these and have a damn good look then you've got your keyboard controls
so typical movement it's wasd and of course you've got all the other stuff as well jump crouch
uh run uh you've got build mode as well left shift and p all this sort of stuff which
you know is going to look daunting to a new player like myself and if you've never played this game
there's lots of keys to learn um or you can get it all via a gamepad as well any changes you can make
you can then reset back to factory defaults go in there honk the horn next up then we've got
mouse sensitivity i've got mine set as as it is to that sort of sensitivity so it's well worth
going back into the keypad controls having a good look writing some down you can always go back to
it you know via the escape menu as well to have a look uh if you're if you're stuck on what to do
but like any game there's going to be a learning curve and that's what i'm expecting when i get
into it so okay let's go back downloadable content so as i mentioned i've got quite a bit of content
here we've got small tractors large tractors cedars trailers all these other packages as well
if you look at what's in store this is generally what came with my version of the game
um i got the xeron saddle track pack whatever that is it looks really cool isn't it and we
got all the general tractors and whatnot you know and all these are all installed um you can
show all modifications as well show cross play modifications at the back um and then you can
look at the mod hub to see what else is in there but you can see i basically installed everything
that i could um any updates got the update button there so you can update within the game
any more downloads again you've got downloads and you've got the d any dlc you have of course
i've got this because i pre-ordered the game um any extra content well i haven't got any extra
content and of course you know i've got all these other mods as well that we've installed
the most downloaded but it would be the most downloaded because that's exactly what's available
at launch for farming simulator 2022 and next up all the latest mods again so okay so you've got
the player action camera yeah we'll have that um can i install it this mod allows you to move
and modify the field of view of the player camera by mouse use the middle mouse button to control
the player height use the middle mouse button while holding the right mouse button to control
the field of view in order to reset press the middle mouse button once
well it's worthwhile having a go isn't it we'll install that anyway okay escape takes us back
and mods have been downloaded it says to restart the game
to use them so that's exactly what we're gonna do
so
so with that game nicely restarted the mod should take effect once we get into it
so into what we're all waiting for now the career mode and getting actually into the game so taking
on korea we've got three slots and there's more if you scroll across so you can have different
firms different farmers depending on what you want to do if you're just starting out select
the first one that's what i'm going to do and click continue at the bottom now i'm a new firmer
so it'll give you some land and equipment and the economy is quite profitable and game elements are
set on easy if you're a farm manager then you've had some experience with this sort of simulation
before i haven't so i'm going to go for the nice new farmer version and of course you've got start
from scratch which is hard it's a real challenge tough economy you know prices are low you know
you're really gonna be up against it to sort of like get any profit or try and if you don't know
what you're doing excel at the game so i'm going to go for new farmer and then click continue now
what it does is it takes you to one of three maps that come with this version of farming simulator
2022 so you've got elm creek there you go you've then got um hot baleron which is looks very sort
of like european sort of olivey area and you've got another one that says to me austria i don't
know i just says austria to me this one here um i'm gonna go with the first which is elm creek uh
it looks a little bit americanized i'm all right that you know and then we're gonna say continue
it'll say what mods do you want well i've got my action camera there no idea i'm gonna use this um
but we'll have a go we've got all my tractors from my dlc and you can deselect these or select them
if you want you know click on that press deselect and you won't have that particular machinery um
click on the box again and there it is so once you've got start you're happy with the

down to your own personal preference and you can also even go down to the fact like what
gloves do you want to wear and also eyewear if you want any eyewear completely up to you so
let's go for a farmer uh we're gonna give ourselves a bit of a beard

you know a beehive keeper you can be a race car driver
and why not i mean this is farming simulator after all i'm gonna go with that
right next up we're all happy with that and we're ready to proceed
so we've selected our farmer you can rotate your farmer as well by holding the right mouse button
down and having a good look around at the back at the front what have you and you've got that
rotation ability so once you're all satisfied with all this uh time to start confirming so
we're going to confirm that welcome to farming submitted we're going to start a short guided tour
this will show you the basics of the game well yes i think i would here's the guided tour so it says
at your left you've got um edge of your field you've got is a big green harvester head
over there and touch the exclamation mark like right next to it so that's what we're gonna do
so with that then we are off so look at this we've got all that we've got a door here um great
we've got to go over there and touch that combine harvester it's green right there you go this is
one of the fields you own from the very start its wheat has conveniently grown to a stage where
it can be harvested time for you to enter the combine harvester and get started okay e to enter
right my combine harvester can i get in it enter vehicle i can
look at this we're combine harvestering okay attach
the harvester's head that's sitting right in front of it
help the panel on the top left corner will always show you the functions okay right attach
okay good now unfold the harvester and turn it on so the header starts rotating
so we've got to unfold so that's x
and then turn selected tool on or off which is b
right right so x oh things are happening things are opening up look at this
right so we've done that so let's try that again so let's see we're closing things up now we're
close turning things on good now if we press b oh things are combine harvestering look at this
okay so um w to accelerate s to deaccelerate a and d let's see if we can get this done so here we go
okay we can change crew speed we can turn the harvester off hey hire an ai worker for this
uh we're typically going straight down so far so good
so with that and my combine harvester combine harvester ring
the ability to
scroll around and zoom out with my camera
how cool is this now here comes the problem i suppose with combine harvesters um
i suppose i've gotta lift the header
and then
aim myself around
crushing all my wheat as i go lower my header
and then carry on combination oh i'm missing tufts of wheat there and everything
i am utterly ridiculous
