Construction Simulator 4: A Beginner's Guide to Mastering the Construction Game

Construction Simulator 4, seven years in the making, transports players to the breathtaking Pinewood Bay, inspired by the stunning Canadian landscape. This guide provides essential tips and tricks for new players to quickly build a thriving construction empire.

Beyond the stunning visuals, Construction Simulator 4 delivers a robust gameplay experience. Over 30 new vehicles, including the highly anticipated concrete pump, are available, along with a cooperative mode for teaming up with friends. All vehicles are fully licensed, featuring brands like CASE, Liebherr, and MAN. Best of all, a free "Lite" version lets you sample the game before upgrading to the full version for a small fee.

Gain an Early Advantage

Construction Simulator 4 - Game Settings

Starting the game, adjust settings for an easier beginning. Extend the economic cycle to 90 minutes for more time between financial reports, allowing for better planning and recovery from setbacks. Disable traffic rules to avoid fines and consider using Arcade Mode for simplified driving controls.

Master the Basics

Construction Simulator 4 - Tutorial

Don't skip the tutorial! The in-game guide, Hape, thoroughly explains all game mechanics, from vehicle operation to the company menu, where you manage materials, purchase machinery, and set waypoints.

Tackle the Jobs

Construction Simulator 4 - Job Selection

After the tutorial, the job system guides your progress. Campaign missions are found in the company menu, alongside optional "General Contracts" offering extra experience and cash between challenging campaign missions.

Level Up Your Business

Construction Simulator 4 - Rank Progression

Job requirements specify needed vehicles and machinery ranks. Use this information to set goals, acquiring the necessary equipment to progress through campaign missions.
