Farming Simulator 19: GRIMME Equipment Pack (DLC)

Farming Simulator 19 DLC packs live or die by one question: does the equipment slot fill a genuine gap in your operation, or is it redundant chrome? The GRIMME Equipment Pack is one of the most single-minded expansions in the FS19 catalogue. All thirteen GRIMME machines and the bonus Lizard tool revolve around potato and beet cultivation - weeders (GH 2, GH 4, GH 8), the GL 32 E potato planter, and the associated harvesting and haulage chain that turns root-crop runs from a chore into a proper logistics puzzle. If your save file already has a dedicated sugar-beet or potato rotation set up, this pack reads like a targeted upgrade kit. From a decision-making standpoint, the GRIMME lineup introduces meaningful equipment tiering. The GH 2, GH 4, and GH 8 weeders scale with your field sizes, so you are not just buying cosmetic variety - you are choosing the right tool for your acreage and horsepower budget. That kind of spec-matching is exactly the sort of depth long-term FS players enjoy, and it rewards the players who actually read the in-game technical sheets rather than just attaching whatever is closest to the tractor. The problems are real, though. Fifty-two Steam reviews landing at 63 percent positive is a warning sign for a paid DLC. Community complaints cluster around value density: thirteen tools is a thin roster for the asking price, especially when several of the weeders feel functionally similar outside of their row-width spec. Players without an established root-crop focus will find almost nothing here - there are no multi-purpose machines, no tractors, and no map content. The pack assumes you are already deep into FS19 and already farming potatoes or beets at scale. Newcomers buying this as their first DLC will be confused and disappointed. Multiplayer and co-op compatibility carries over from the base game, so if you run a shared farm server with friends you can bring the GRIMME equipment into those sessions without friction, which is one genuine positive. The cross-platform support on Xbox means co-op sessions between Xbox One and Xbox Series X players work as expected. As a strategy piece, the calculus is straightforward. Check your current FS19 farm plan before spending anything. If root crops are a core income stream for you, the equipment chain here tightens your workflow and the tiered weeders alone justify a closer look. If you are growing wheat and sunflowers on flat land and have never planted a potato, skip this entirely and come back when a more general pack is on the table. Diego, Scout Team
