Farming Simulator 19 Ravensberg Part 04 Days 3-5 First huge field job
For all the information and all the "whys", please read the description of Part 01.
In this part, after a typical transport mission, I accepted my first serious job – harvesting sugar beet. It should not be anything special, but because I am quite a noob in the game AND I decided not to use fast travel, the very transport of required machines to the field was a hell of a journey. Here, the mod for a versatile transport trailer is very helpful. However, I used a very weak truck and hauling was a true nightmare. I did not know how to transport the header. I eventually (somehow) managed to get all the vehicles to the field. Then, I started the actual job. Because the field was huge, I decided to use routes whch divided the area into smaller portions (from a realistic point of vied this does not shorten the work itself, but it is a good "psychological" solution to avoid boredom or falling asleep in front of the screen – yes it is possible, especially while driving in the 1st person view). After a loooong time (1 day in-game) I decided to implement another step of my roleplay: whenever I lease equipment for a field job, I must bring them back to the store; let's say this would be a part of a lease contract in real life. To avoid or the hassle, I decided to use the mod for a towing chain... just to discover that using the towing chain is as complicated as breaking the Enigma code... Either I did something wrong or there were some mod conflicts, but it took me a while to drag the machines to the store. I also did not do well at sticking to day schedules (skipping time for the night and starting the work at about 6-7 o'clock to simulate sleeping) but, just as in real life, if you need a job done, you simply do not sleep :P
FAQ
Why did you/Why haven't you...?
I am a complete noob using a heap of mods; expect many stupid decisions, pointless purchases, glitches and total confusion. I am learning the game mechanics on the go :) What's more, I am an insanely patient person. If I bother cutting a whole forest with just a chainsaw, it's because I just want to relax doing so.
Your channel is called pure gameplays on hard, so why are you plaing on regular difficulty?
I tested the game both on easy and hard. While easy seems a bit too... easy, the highest difficulty is simply an endless grind and it would take me forever to even achieve the smallest short-term goals. It does not add any challenge, it only adds time consumption.
Why bother uploading such gameplays without any commentary?
First of all, for the small group of people who simply like some gameplay footage playing in the background while they are working/doing stuff on the computer (I am one of those). What is more, many people just want to see how gameplay and mods look and work in general, without an added bonus in form of an over-emotional youtuber being more of a distraction than help. YouTube is already oversaturated with such channels, this channel is something different (hence less successful, but it still gives me satisfaction :)). Second of all, for my gamification purposes ("Wait, what? Gamifying your gaming?" All story short: yes).
What recording software/equipment do you use?
I use AverMedia Live Gamer Portable 2 4k Plus. Although I have set the recording quality to medium, because this game seems to use a high bitrate, 2-3 hours of gameplay weigh 20-30 gigs. That's a lot of disk space to handle and a lot of strain on the SD card. Using the highest video quality would be even more demanding with hardly noticeable increase in visuals (or they would even be worse/blurry whenever the footage is too dynamic).
Do you like simulation games? Are you a truck driver/farmer yourself?
I have played lots of simulation games, but I think FS and ETS series are the best that the genre offers. IRL, I am a translator, so I have contact with many industries every day. My side-hobbies also change quite often. For the time being, it's heavy machinery :D
Why don't you just use time lapse?
It's simple: that is not my purpose. I want to show the exact amount of time needed to do certain things in the game. What's more, if someone just wants to watch relaxing videos in the background/on the second screen, this is the exact type of such videos.
