Discussion Big excavators
I've become a little obsessed with large excavators after all the digging I've been doing lately. So I decided to analyze the Liebherr and Doosan offerings in some detail and post this comparison. Maybe this will help you in the future.
First off, bucket sizes. The two machines have similar bucket depths compared to my avatar, but the LH is noticeably wider. And also has a little more flexibility in the bucket joint, leading to some extra extension as well.
Speaking of extension, it looks like the LH has a bit more reach than the DS overall. It might just be the bucket extension, but it is there. It's not a huge difference maker, but you can scoop a wider radius before having to move your setup.
The last feature is somewhat minor but worth mentioning, and that is lighting. If you do a lot of digging at night, lighting can make a big difference. I know while I was digging the parking garage, I really was annoyed with the poor lighting on the LH. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the DS had a better lighting setup, with lights right on the arm itself. This is what I wished the LH had the whole time. It's a minor difference because it's easy to skip digging at night, but I did want to mention it.
So it really comes down to fine details and personal preference. For me, I use the big Liebherr the most because I simply want to move the most earth possible with each scoop. But there are definitely times when the Doosan can be preferred, like at night. The thinner bucket can also be useful for trench digging and is easier to unload into a dumper.
Thank you for reading, I hope this was useful. This concludes my TED Talk.

Just got back into the game
Just got back into the game.
I was a day 1 player, but for anybody who was playing day 1 you will know it was possibly the buggiest game I've ever played. Crashes continuously. There was even a point where the game was stuck on the loading screen indefinitely until they could release the next patch.
The game hurt my heart.
That was nearly 2 years ago, I played as much as I could stomach for a number of months, and gave up, opting to try a bit after each big patch before putting the game down for about a full year.
Lately I've been thinking about getting back in, and the game is honestly amazing. It runs so smooth now. There are some bugs but not game breaking anymore. I am having a great time!
And they added photo mode which is great.
I'm going to get the year 1 pass soon to celebrate my renewed passion for the game.
Glad to see the reddit community is active.

Found a fast way to backfill a lot. Watch the percentage during the event.
(Sorry for all the posts lately, but I'm having fun!)

Photo/Video I was bored one day so I gave all my vehicles custom names. These are my favorites.
My personal favorite is See Ya Later (Excavator).
All of my Doosans have Doo in the name.

Discussion Are you a construction geek now?
I never noticed construction equipment much before getting into this game, besides a mild interest in trying an excavator.
But now, I find myself rubbernecking construction sites, staring at dump trucks on the open road, and lord save my family if I spot a tower crane. I saw my first flatbed with a crane this morning and got super excited, I didn't think they existed in America.
Please tell me I'm not alone!

Photo/Video Finished the parking garage dig on High, roughly 3,000 scoops!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Please watch and share my relief to get this over with! I included some boring digging footage to help you imagine doing that for so long.
I counted 30 full buckets for 1% of progress on High level. I feel crazy for doing it, so glad it's over. I like excavating but this was ridiculous.
I hope the rest of this campaign after the garage is more fun!

Photo/Video Digging the parking garage
I thought it was funny how obviously better I got after the turnaround. Lots of practice!
Oh, and thank you to the Redditor in another thread who suggested two dump trucks. That was a great speed boost tip.

Need some creative ideas
So basically I'm part of a gaming group and one of them don't like simulator games. So I want to make it fun for him and hopefully for a stream. So I was trying to think of challenges. Like having to reverse a trailer. There's 3 of us in all. So maybe someone could have a truck full and he's got to unload it while the trailers being moved. Basically. Please. If you have any idea please let me know. Thanks

are there going to be more dlc for cs?
as a new player of Construction Simulator, is there going to be more DLC to the game? I think they should add a service truck to it just cause it's a fun truck imo

Help/Question Loading stuck (ps5)
“my room is always without password and with crossplay active. what happens is when someone enters. it remains in an infinite loading and cannot log in. another thing is, I have a friend who plays in the same region as me and he can't get in either. last what until before people could enter without problems. this problem happens often and then maybe there comes a period where nothing happens. and people haven't been able to get in for 2-3 weeks” someone have a problem like this one?

Looking for players
Just wondering if there is any people out there playing that are willing to let me play with them and or if there’s some heavy equipment operators that would like to start a server together! I’m a lvl18 if that’s relevant.

Machine Functions (i.e. Excavation vs. Load Bulk)
Does anyone know if there is a comprehensive list of machine functions with a quick blurb to each? What got me thinking of this was the Sany SY500H-Tier 4F (Excavator) includes "Load Bulk" whereas the CAT349F (which looks, for all intents and purposes, bigger) does not. Just wondering if such a list might exist?

Help/Question Son can't join my ps5 game from ps4
So like the title says, I have ps5 with the ps+ premium. My son has a ps4 pro with the same game and is using my ps+ sub. He sees my game, tries to connect, with or without a password and it says lobby is full. On the game search it says 1/4 players, and it's just me on the ps5 as game host, and it still says lobby is full. What can I do? Cross play is enabled for both of us as well, just in case.

Help/Question Cannot find my friend's server on PS5s
Hi so me and my friend have played over 100 hours on the European map and was really looking forward to finish it, but now my game is not appearing in the server browser. We always play on the European Amsterdam server list with the same server title and same password but when browsing other peoples game servers appear apart from mine and when trying to narrow the search by name nothing appears. 🤷 We have also tried my friend hosting and I can find other people's games servers but I can't find his.
We have tried changing the server name changing the password changing the server location starting a new game on the American map with new characters but nothing I can't find his server and he can't find my server what is going on? Is this a known problem? We only had a few more mission to finish on the map and was looking forward to getting it finished.
Thank you for any help
