Im more curious about the new suspension design on the new tractors. The k700 & k7m had articulation. Center rotating axis. Which is what allowed them to be able to drive and pull trailers on uneven terrain, which all regular game maps have. The new tractors dont have that at all and from alot of the gameplay i have seen, they seem to struggle and high center their frame everywhere as soon as they leave a flat field. I know everyones complaints were valid about the poor turning rate, but saber fixed it with switchable diif lock and adding front weights. I think they made a mistake by taking away the center rotating axis on the new tractors. They should have just made the changes to switchable diff and front weights but kept the suspension on all tractors the articulating center axis. I think the next big complaint will be the players hating on the new tractors suspension and them high centering everywhere. Im not criticizing your testing at all but those tests were all on completely flat Plains and flat elevations. Can you, or have you tried the new suspensions on regular uneven terrain on regular maps.....vs the old articulating tractor suspensions? I think this would make a very good test. Thanks for the video and content HP, new subscriber here.
Thank you, J.P. That's a really good suggestion and provides interesting details. I will surely test it and try to make a video on the same. Welcome aboard! 🙂
I wonder if removing the weights from the Futom make any difference. Seems like it would be a little faster without them but maybe not. Also curious whether the double wheels on Futom improve mud performance.
I tried removing the weights, but it didn't make any difference in the power-to-weight ratio, so I'm not sure about that, but yes, I will definitely try it. On the other hand, double wheels do improve traction, especially while farming since we have those wavy fields. Maybe I will create a separate video on the best tires for the Futom.
Hey guys, quick update here on our previous discussion, I tested without counter weight and double wheels, double wheels is definitely no brainer, its the best but counter weight surprised me the most. It really decreasing the performance in each aspect. As of now I am not seeing any reason why we need counter weight. May be its for log crane. But I have yet to test it. I will make final comparision video once development completed and s14 released because as of now changes are keep coming in PTS. Thanks for your suggestion, comparison was really interesting.
K-700 i don't know because i didn't get that map but i have futom and i still have to install the second engine. Everytime i need to work in a farm i have to put that thing in a trailer to save it's fuel but since the plows might have to be towed there also don't fit in the trailer so here i go with the weakling tractor pulling the plow and drifting everywhere and loosing power and spend fuel through bad terrain. Futom is total garbage,one of the worst vehicles i've seen in this game and even if the new engine fixes it's powe sure won't fix the poor handling.
That's right, man. SnowRunner farming is like that. IMO S14 farming is better than S8. I think the Futom is much better than the K700. The only advantage of the K700 is its articulated steering, which helps in uneven terrain. Try that smaller 6x6 tractor. It's fun to drive and gets the job done. Maybe that can be loaded onto a trailer with farming equipment. And you can have one fuel tanker around the field, like I use CAT with a fuel addon. Maybe that will help.
@@HpTriggerGaming I tried both but i think their handling is bad and they get stuck easily in rocks and mud even with big tires,the first farm i was using a plow Ankatra got stuck in the place and i had to bring a truck to help.😔 I am very disappointed with these vehicles,i like the map and Earthroamers are good but ugly caravan things but the tractors are a waste of space.
