Forgot to mention some things:- - Fuel Economy:- Ankatra has okish economy but fuel tank is small, Futom economy is about same as K7M, Earthroamers are very fuel efficient. - Earthroamer axle freeze is only noticiable with heavy loads & steep climbs...so for most part its not noticiable.
I will buy this map because i like the landscape and has lots of road. I saw people playing in lives and i think the big tractor is good,i don't know about the small one and Earthroamer looks too flippy and radars came from Kola when we found the implement and Ford didn't get that so wait for season 14 to equip it in Earthroamer seems too late. Mods had scouts with it a long time ago.

@@VINNICENTE They don't licension - they can make any "asian copy" - Unipog, Funnimog, even Vinniepog! They already did this - look at all post-soviet scouts/trucks and indian clones of Jeep and G-wagen!
Totally agree. There is a very good Mod in the shop with the Unipog U500. Its my GOAT (Greatest Of All Time or Goes Over All Terrain) The Unipog can do everything Scouting, Towing...
It absolutely is a buff considering the only real use for the tractors is farming. Turning the difflock off decreases the turn radius by about 3-5x(depends on terrain) which is a massive difference when you need to do 180 degree turns over and over.
Those farming trailers are now more painful to transport to destination because you can't use high on tractors now as diff is not always on....Also I don't think turning radius is affected significantly.
I like the tractors, lets me do farming without dealing with the fiddly articulation, let the Kirovets tractors be my service trucks. The Earthroamer twins are actually quite good at scouting, I can go down trails with relative confidence that they won't get stuck somewhere. LTI does have control issues at higher speeds on pavement and the SX has high centering issues and an underpowered engine set, but overall they'll likely become some go-to scouts for me.
I wish they made at least one of the earthroamers capable of removing the RV parts and allow us to use different attachments. Would have been a reason to add two of them
I didn't know they nerved the Kirovets. I really liked the K7M with always on diff. Didn't unlock any of them yet, just finished scouting and picking up the upgrades. Can't wait for the Ankatra to try out. When farming, turning around at the end of the field is highly annoying with the Kirovets and I flipped many times by accident but these seem much better. I'll try to go farming with them again, despite me not liking it too much in season 8
Those Earthroamers look like modified versions of Dodge RAM 3500 and Ford F150 Raptor... Why would they add such vehicles as campers? Why not have the camper as an add-on? I wish you could use them to transport x1 slot cargo, or turn them into pick up versions... Disappointing, no variety in customization :/
I'm guessing because Saber doesn't have the license from Dodge & Ford, which if I'm not mistaken these vehicles don't have those badges on the grills either. The license was specifically for Earthroamer, which are the campers.
Well both earthroamers are based on ford (bigger one) and chevrolet (smaller one) And earthroamer is a legit brand that creates campers from those exact models. So simply they lack lice sing from ford and chevy
Pretty sure Saber actually said they only have the license for the Earthroamer campers. If I remember right, people were asking about taking the off the campers during the public test and Saber gave a solid no for legal reasons.
The Earthroamer has a very weak acceleration,it cant even climb a slight hill on 1st gear from stop,I wonder what causes the axle freeze if its not the weak engine
Axle freeze happens because of traction, when there's a lot of traction, It stop truck from moving...you can notice such freezes on powerful vehicles like Tayga as well.
To add on to SD1ONE's statement, depending on the terrain you're experience axle freeze on, try switching to a "worse" type of tire for that terrain. The tires may lose traction and get your drivetrain moving and break past the axle freeze.
It's due to low power-to-weight and scout gearboxes. SnowRunner gearbox has too much of angular velocity for 1st gear, and the Freeway - for the reverse.
I had this from memory but I just checked now -- JAT OMDs are slightly better than UODs because they have the same stats but are slightly wider. Stat-wise they are also just better than the Earth Roamer tires
A test that would be nice would be to compare the perfs of the two new tractors with/without dual tyres and weighted/not weighted. Like is it better with dual tyres and no weight or single tyres with weight ?
@@nyasura6665 I dont think anybody should use singles specially with weights because crane makes it too top heavy....Dually are way to go to use it most effectively IMO.
Im not big on the earthroamers imo a truck like that makes more sense in expeditions, would've liked basically anything else the futom and ankatra are kinda neat being tractors with normal steering tho
I recently tried original spintires and I forgot how difficult it is. I always said I missed it until I forgot how difficult some of the basic spots are. I think I'm just use to going super fast in all the rest of the spinoffs. Is there a mod to make snow runner actually have difficult mud?
Original spintires was about as difficult as Mudrunner but In later update they chage everything including physics which makes it more difficult.... unfortunately I don't think you can get that experience in SR
The lockable difflock is a buff and not a nerf, change my mind ! While working on a field i was triggered by the always on difflock, which makes turnig circle wider than 10wheeled azov... edit: Btw: Bitching about articullation sound like big skill issue to me...
Look, I have no issue with articulation personally but people do have problem with it and the new tractors are more convienent to use because they've no articulation....Diff lock on other hand is not a buff because I don't think it would make a lot of difference in turning but you will lose effectiveness of high & auto for sure.
@@SD1ONE It makes a massive distance to turning radius with the K7m in particular. Before the russian tractors could barely turn at all when pulling an implement. It's a huge buff to them overall.
@@SD1ONE As someone already said in the comments, for something that is used to make repeated 180 turns, having diff lock switchable is a huge buff. You have to consider what its intended use is. Farming with the K-700 and K7M is now much easier (and enjoyable).
I believe part of the Futom's problem is that the tires don't have their natural dampening tire squish effect like mudrunner did with the K-700. The 700 also has the multi joint articulated steering though which is much better for uneven terrain. Despite this downfall, I think it's fair to say that we're talking about a tractor that has no suspension (this is why most tractors have air seats to dampen bumps), is relegated to relatively level fieldwork that rarely goes above 10 mph (16 kph) and averages from 5-7 mph, and self smooths and levels uneven or rocky field terrain with it's immense weight (this is likely another fairly large factor). They are built for smooth, gently sloping terrain, not quickly changing, bumpy terrain.
Now that I think about it, the natural tire squish sounds almost like the reason why trucks feel bouncier than they should. Perhaps that is or at least is part of the problem
@@Gracefulwarrior2124 You know I compared all these things like frame to frame with Mudrunner and the overall conclusion is that most of such small details are present in SR but fast paced gameplay of SR is the reason why we don't notice such details in first place....Again some small details are simply missing in SR as well
I agree overall The tests, but you should compare add-ons of each tractors, because kirovetz tractors have other service adons, I use them in Amur region to save other trucks... K 7000 or Big one with double tires is Great in ice, but well, 👍 for video, pretty informative 😊
That's right but I mainly consider them as farming vehicles first and recovery or cargo hauler later and For farming stuff new tractors are better....Also there're so many new vehicles with fuel & repair stuff which can do well on Amur ice as well like FEMM, Burlak, etc
Sucks that you need the logging crane to install the counterweight on the Ankatra, I also would have liked the addition of front counterweights to the old tractors as that one farming trailer always lifts the front so you can't steer
Finally, I think I will finish phase 8. The new Futom 7290RA has a much better turning radius than any Russian Kirovets, which in their case gave me a headache when working in the field.
@@SD1ONE True, this is currently the best thing to do if someone is just starting Phase 8, even if they have experience with Farming Simulator with maneuvering large tractors with large equipment. And even in this game, the ones that worked best for me were the JCB Fastrac 8330 and Claas Xerion 5000, which have a similar four-wheel steering system as the Futom 7290RA in Snowrunner and the latter of which, I believe, was the inspiration for Futom.
Too much weight equals reduced pulling power and poor hill climbing ability, while too little weight equals traction problems. It's essentially just a "pick your poison" sorta thing. Also, the weights last I saw had collison and can cause drag in mud or catch on bumpy terrain
I wonder, did Saber make it so that the weights actually help with stability when having heavy trailers / farming equipment in the rear or do they just increase overall vehicle weight?
Is it really worth it? Im waiting for ps5 discounts, and tractors aren't my strongsuit sometimes in SR especially kirov, but for the sake of austria and the futom i really want it but at at the same time i don't
"It's great that they added 4 vehicles, but honestly I would've preferred one decent 6x6 truck over them". Agreed. At least we finally have a short log trailer! Cheers, //Rick
@@Gracefulwarrior2124 I haven't checked all vehicles yet but it is not available to all vehicles and honestly the selection of trucks looks very random
What the heck are you talking about?The game is still full of them just because as they add different things that are newer doesn’t mean they take away from the old ones that existed.
@@lawnmowerdude Newer things is alright but Are they really that much useful...a heavy duty truck or offroad truck can do mulitple tasks on multiple maps while these tractors are only good for farming which is only avaialble in 2 regions so far...also you've to unlock them first...Earthroamers are good but both look & drive almost same....Radar on Earthroamer is nice but I would like to see such radar fucntionality on some military vehicle like Hummer H1 or Oshkosh JLTV.
well, using it now can damage something if used in harden roads and no difficulties (they start green and slowly climb to red to then give damage if Diff lock is used in a swichable)
@@claudetheclaudeqc6600 Dont know what you're talking about green and red. Switchable allows you to switch it on and off, best of both worlds! Turning radius is improved massively! It's more realistic! It does not cause more damage to your vehicles, thats just your bad driving.
Nah, Forester is good at one thing logging and It does that best, Ankatra is very different from Forester...I don't know if they give new logging trailer to forester or not but If it has those trailer, It would be perfect logging vehicle.
Considering the map's difficult level, those are more overpowered vehicles released in the past several seasons. 2 Similar Scouts. Devs are clearly not willing to listening the community. CTR C + V is the new Meta of SnowRunner, since Year Pass 3.
@@SD1ONE Bro, I genuinely love this game, but I am not pretending to be blind to how it has been treated for the last two years. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the developers are not listening to the community, or they want our attention in Expeditions and Road Craft by not delivering in SnowRunner. Honestly, there has been nothing new in SR for years! Just visual, cosmetic things!
The question is for how long Expeditions will receive updates, because most scouts that are currently being added to SR were originally planned for Expeditions but were then instead put in SR because it has more popularity
I don't think Expeditions would recieve a seaon 2 honestly...they've new game coming called RoadCraft and if it did good...things will get even harder for Expeditions.
@@bullfrog8465 There are still scouts in RC, but I don't really think there will be any intermediary vehicles like what you've suggested. The Chevrolet Kodiak C70 seems like the very smallest they may go with, especially since the game is more focused on fixing the whole world you're in. Who knows tho. It's a new game and we all could be pleasently surprised from what comes of it
I got to say, i use to hate the idea of the earthroamers, but now i've tryed it, they're pretty good, what makes me think, maybe a military hummvee with a radar on it, will be the perfect scout vehicle, hope to see it in next seasons... About the tractors, sd1one, ¿¿What you think, saber was thinking, nerfing the tractors removing the permablock diff?? It doesn't have any sense!!!!, the older kirovets looks like it doesn't lost a lot, but is noticeable About the smaller ankatra..... I tryed, and even all maxed, it's rubbish 😂 I just cannot understand, why they removed the permablock diff
AFAIK having always on diff lock made the Kirovets' turning radius huge, which is one of the reasons why farming was so hated. By the way, since permablock isn't a thing now, the tractors should have a better fuel economy
I don't think Ankatra is rubbish.... it's unique and I like it... Earthroamers on other hand felt out of place in SR... like you said a military humvee, etc would've been better
@@SD1ONE Think the Earthroamers should be in Expeditions , not in SR . Also can´t help but those together with Soy beans and Solarpanels . . . is it just me who feels like this was a step in some direction i´m not sure its a good one ?
we didn't need the Earthroamers and their introduction has messed up radar mods but the two tractors are nice and at least they turn in less radius than an ocean liner.
Man, A lot of people are saying that radar mods are messed up now....I hope modders update their mods otherwise it would be sad because some of those radar vehicles are awesome....much more better animations & 3D model than Earthroamer radar.
@@SD1ONE I just liked using the bobblehead radar mod because I could equip it to any vehicle and didn't have to carry that stupid trailer around, the modder said he's looking for a fix.
this axle freeze issue is becoming far too common and annoying among the later vehicles starting from kenny 963, devs are doing something wrong and/or they are getting lazy
I like tractors because they’re not articulate steering. Those are just hard for me to control. The two RVs I wish they could’ve got the right to just make them trucks and the RV bodies could’ve been frame add-ons
So people complain about wanting more capable scouts and better tractors. They provide both and everyone is still complaining. I'm having a blast with the new scouts(still looking for the tractors). And will most likely use these as my preferred scouts and tractors moving forward.
Imagine this radar on a Hummer H1 or some other military vehicle which would've actually fit well in game...Yes those campers are good vehicles for scout but I still think we don't need 2 of them. They might've took a lot of development time which could've been spend on better things like more unique addons for trucks or new trailers...things that might actually come handy.
I'm disappointed with the latest DLC. 😞 It only includes two new scouts with RV attachments and two unbranded tractors. The engine sounds in the game have been getting worse with each DLC. The little tractor sounds like a washing machine or a leaf blower. I was hoping for new trucks and better engine sounds.
Forgot to mention some things:-
- Fuel Economy:- Ankatra has okish economy but fuel tank is small, Futom economy is about same as K7M, Earthroamers are very fuel efficient.

I’m just glad we got weights for the new tractors as this game seems to reward heavier trucks with more traction
Too much weight is also bad, There has to be a balance of weight & power.

What the heck are you talking about?The game is still full of them just because as they add different things that are newer doesn’t mean they take away from the old ones that existed.
@@lawnmowerdude Newer things is alright but Are they really that much useful...a heavy duty truck or offroad truck can do mulitple tasks on multiple maps while these tractors are only good for farming which is only avaialble in 2 regions so far...also you've to unlock them first...Earthroamers are good but both look & drive almost same....Radar on Earthroamer is nice but I would like to see such radar fucntionality on some military vehicle like Hummer H1 or Oshkosh JLTV.

How is removing permanent diff a nerf?
well, using it now can damage something if used in harden roads and no difficulties (they start green and slowly climb to red to then give damage if Diff lock is used in a swichable)
How it's not a nerf.
@@claudetheclaudeqc6600
Dont know what you're talking about green and red.
Switchable allows you to switch it on and off, best of both worlds! Turning radius is improved massively! It's more realistic!
It does not cause more damage to your vehicles, thats just your bad driving.
@@SD1ONE
It makes the vehicle more maneuverable, turning radius is improved and it still allows you to switch it on.
@@MattiAntsuK it happens if the diff lock is stayed on in a controlable one in specific places (like a tarmac road)
Do you have to have the crane in order to have the weight on the Ankatra?
Yes, But keep in mind that front weight does reduce your approach angle as it lowers your front bumper to ground.
this game has changed a lot since the day one
What is the name of the map that you used in the video?
It’s a private map, only people like him that have the files to the map can use it.
Could I ask, why isn’t the aramatsu forester the main rival for the ankatra?
Because they are totally different vehicles
@@Angelthewolf but they look similar :(
Nah, Forester is good at one thing logging and It does that best, Ankatra is very different from Forester...I don't know if they give new logging trailer to forester or not but If it has those trailer, It would be perfect logging vehicle.
The tractor it likes claas xerion😮
Considering the map's difficult level, those are more overpowered vehicles released in the past several seasons. 2 Similar Scouts. Devs are clearly not willing to listening the community. CTR C + V is the new Meta of SnowRunner, since Year Pass 3.
Man, I really want to see some new regular sized 6x6 trucks but devs are giving us everything but that.
@@SD1ONE Bro, I genuinely love this game, but I am not pretending to be blind to how it has been treated for the last two years. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the developers are not listening to the community, or they want our attention in Expeditions and Road Craft by not delivering in SnowRunner. Honestly, there has been nothing new in SR for years! Just visual, cosmetic things!
Do I have to buy the year pass to get these new vehicles and other maps or is there another way?
You can buy individual seasons as well if you don't want full year pass.
Do the new tractors take 10 acres to turn around as well?
Futom would take like 7 acres but Ankatra has normal turning.
One should be a pickup variant.
What about 1st season for Expeditions? There's brand new Step Albatross 6x6 truck and cool rock crawler Shiba Earthroamer scout.
The question is for how long Expeditions will receive updates, because most scouts that are currently being added to SR were originally planned for Expeditions but were then instead put in SR because it has more popularity
I don't think Expeditions would recieve a seaon 2 honestly...they've new game coming called RoadCraft and if it did good...things will get even harder for Expeditions.
I bet Saber is saving the pickup variants of the Earthroamers for Roadworks. They would make nice dump trucks & utility/bucket trucks
@@bullfrog8465 There are still scouts in RC, but I don't really think there will be any intermediary vehicles like what you've suggested. The Chevrolet Kodiak C70 seems like the very smallest they may go with, especially since the game is more focused on fixing the whole world you're in.
Who knows tho. It's a new game and we all could be pleasently surprised from what comes of it
I got to say, i use to hate the idea of the earthroamers, but now i've tryed it, they're pretty good, what makes me think, maybe a military hummvee with a radar on it, will be the perfect scout vehicle, hope to see it in next seasons...
About the tractors, sd1one, ¿¿What you think, saber was thinking, nerfing the tractors removing the permablock diff?? It doesn't have any sense!!!!, the older kirovets looks like it doesn't lost a lot, but is noticeable
About the smaller ankatra..... I tryed, and even all maxed, it's rubbish 😂
I just cannot understand, why they removed the permablock diff
AFAIK having always on diff lock made the Kirovets' turning radius huge, which is one of the reasons why farming was so hated.
By the way, since permablock isn't a thing now, the tractors should have a better fuel economy
I don't think Ankatra is rubbish.... it's unique and I like it... Earthroamers on other hand felt out of place in SR... like you said a military humvee, etc would've been better
I don't think permanent diff was as big of problem as compared to articulation...so now they're just less good variant of new tractors
@@Cracko_YT exactly 👍
@@SD1ONE Think the Earthroamers should be in Expeditions , not in SR .
Also can´t help but those together with Soy beans and Solarpanels . . . is it just me who feels like this was a step in some direction i´m not sure its a good one ?
Ankatra 1160 beats all other tractors purely on its tyres having traction!
we didn't need the Earthroamers and their introduction has messed up radar mods but the two tractors are nice and at least they turn in less radius than an ocean liner.
Man, A lot of people are saying that radar mods are messed up now....I hope modders update their mods otherwise it would be sad because some of those radar vehicles are awesome....much more better animations & 3D model than Earthroamer radar.
@@SD1ONE I just liked using the bobblehead radar mod because I could equip it to any vehicle and didn't have to carry that stupid trailer around, the modder said he's looking for a fix.
Radar on the ps5 is messed up, even the in game tow behind trailer.
this axle freeze issue is becoming far too common and annoying among the later vehicles starting from kenny 963, devs are doing something wrong and/or they are getting lazy
Does anyone know when the update comes out for switch?
I like tractors because they’re not articulate steering. Those are just hard for me to control. The two RVs I wish they could’ve got the right to just make them trucks and the RV bodies could’ve been frame add-ons
I agree with your point but It can't happen because those RVs are licenced and it's they're not Earthromers without the RV part.
Still No Unimog, No man kat, No Mercy arocs and they fucking non licenced a claas xerion. How couldnt they get a licenced for the xerion Like what?
When devs nerf truck you like
The radar is not working, is it just me?
+1
working fine for me, I tried it just yesterday in new season.
@@SD1ONE Is the mod vehicle radar also working?
@@vlsmlrsd2754 mod vehicle? haven't tried mods...I was talking about earthroamer radar.
Not working on ps5
So people complain about wanting more capable scouts and better tractors. They provide both and everyone is still complaining. I'm having a blast with the new scouts(still looking for the tractors). And will most likely use these as my preferred scouts and tractors moving forward.
Imagine this radar on a Hummer H1 or some other military vehicle which would've actually fit well in game...Yes those campers are good vehicles for scout but I still think we don't need 2 of them. They might've took a lot of development time which could've been spend on better things like more unique addons for trucks or new trailers...things that might actually come handy.
Ngl. Them adding 2 scouts and 2 tractors feels like a joke. I'm not saying it's bad or anything.
But it feels like a joke made by the devs
If I were the licenser, I would be bothered by a nerf to my vehicles...
But If you're a licencer from Russia, You can't do anything about it because of obvious reason.
6:02 interesting fact, all of those trucks are fords
No the blue earthroamer is a Chevy 5500
@@BurnemRacing oh I thought it was a Ford F7 50
6:37 thanks to its half-working radar, or it's useless compare to f750.
I think it drives better than F750 specially on mud but yes radar is huge selling point.
@@SD1ONE Half working. Maybe good when trailer dealer not available.
I'm disappointed with the latest DLC. 😞 It only includes two new scouts with RV attachments and two unbranded tractors. The engine sounds in the game have been getting worse with each DLC. The little tractor sounds like a washing machine or a leaf blower. I was hoping for new trucks and better engine sounds.
Can't wait to try buy this 😮
Why is any in game vehicle nerfed when there is a Mod menu to get vehicles that are very OP?
No we DONT. Earthroamers - my Lawn tractor is Faster. Tractors have enough.
I really like the maps but the new trucks are doodoo!
maybe you should buy a microphone for voiceover ?
They been learning from R* only drop vehicles that there is no really need for such type .
Worst update we've had so far in terms of trucks.
They all suck
No, you suck
No.
Yes.
