The actual seeding takes a long time because the seeder is only a single row. In fact, the whole sugarcane process is very slow. There really isn’t much speed in Farming Simulator at all, but this process is especially long.
The thing about the sugarcane seeder is that it’s incredibly slow. The new map throws you right into planting sugarcane, as there’s a tractor and sugarcane seeder already parked in front one of the three fields you start off with on your Latin farm estate (more on this later). It’s like a big bamboo stick, except it’s incredibly sweet (hence the name)! Coca-Cola even uses it in their drinks instead of the regular sugar so, technically, the soda is healthier, if that’s even possible. If you’ve never had a sugarcane before, do try it. Not to mention the new crop this DLC adds to the game is also a big deal in South America: sugarcane. Its unique red soil, lush terrain, and beautiful mountain ranges are all very much South American. I’ve seen quite a bit of farmland in both countries, and Estancia Lapacho really does look like South America.
As I write this review, I’m currently visiting Peru. I’ve actually been down here on the continent for over a year now, primarily in Ecuador. From personal experience, I can say that the new Estancia Lapacho map is a great representation of South America. This map is quite different from the original two: Goldcrest Valley (based on the USA) and Sosnovka (based on Russia). The main new feature offered by the Platinum Expansion is the all-new South American map: Estancia Lapacho. So, is the ‘Platinum Expansion’ of Farming Simulator 17 worth it? Now, GIANTS Software itself has dived back into the game to bring us a whole new map, along with new machinery and even a new crop. The game has grown quite a bit since then, mostly due to a massive modding community. It’s been a year since Farming Simulator 17 launched.
