Keep doing what you doing, don't mind the perfectionists. In fact I will not download a map if it has no review on YT, and I do not care about perfection, I care about playability - the look and feel is very important. I can fix any mistakes or errors anyway.

[@alanstobbart1602]

What a monster !! I was impressed with its performance given its size I have had more problems with some 4x maps than with this one. A few rough ends such as falling off the earth and crashing the game tried to puts some trees along the edge to stop me accidentally forgetting but got error about too many trees wil. Need to get the increasing mod for trees should fix that problem. Some roads are unfinished with rough edges and humps where there should not be but not serious. I used courseplay on it just fine for some of the odd shaped fields. It would be interesting to see if this entices someone else to have a go at such a size. Could fit a whole county of England in a map this size ha ha ha

Keep up showing off mods and maps that are not perfect, sparks the interest of some for sure. And the ones that demands perfect mods are most likely the ones that don't even know how to open Giants Editor anyway, or how to install mods. I might be wrong on that, but have not seen them post any content for the game so far.

Nicely presented FSG and you do a great job of showing what is out there for everyone to use if the person wants to I know the limitations on my laptop so I would never play on anything larger than 4x map but I enjoy seeing what map maker’s can do which I find interesting and if the people who say you shouldn’t show maps like this don’t understand that your community it’s just for one person it’s for all to enjoy with different capabilities I personally really enjoy seeing what can be done with the game.

[@techforthedisabled9514]

Agreed

[@michaelmacdonell4834]

If a chicken farmer makes a serious error, does it result in a flustercluck? This map is a) bonkers and b) utterly brilliant!.The brilliant bit has to be the coding - something this big shouldn't run. Not "run smoothly", but "not run at all". Giants' new Engine has reolved most of the memory leak and buffer overrun issues the previous one enjoyed, but with a map, and therefore the data calls, of this magnitude, it will outrun the memory fairly fast. Whatever they did to optimise the map is probably some South American Black Art, because maths gave up in tears!

Great review,sadly giants engine is to old and it is not build for maps of this size,yea map would run but performance would be really bad. Main problem is that engine doesnt support data streaming,option that is built into almost all big triple x modern game engines like Unity,UE5 or Cry Engine,Farming Sim engine is ancient and lacks many modern features,they updated few things trought the years but basic skeleton is still the same with the same old bugs like bad scaling on modern hardware. Even with the most expensive hardware like i9 and rtx 3090 game would still lag on many maps,even on the basic giants maps if you put 10 tractors or any other machines game would lag and stutter like crazy,which is clearly a problem with the ancient giants engine,we all know that i9 12900k and rtx 3090 configuration is capable to run even the most demanding games on 60+ fps in 4k resolution...but not the FS 22 lol,i think that giants needs to step up,get rid of this ancient piece of code and go for something modern like UE5 or write a new engine.
