Autumn of 2025 farming plan

I have been playing Farming Simulator 22 (FS22) on PMC Undefined Farms 20km v0.2.7 (started with v0.2.5) for three weeks now, this is a temporary, throw away, just for fun savegame, meaning that there wont be screenshots, videos or farming story written to it like I normally do.

Now I'm thinking of expanding this farmsim game-play session to something more permanent and what I've done before, so going back to my official Start From Zero FS22 savegames. Quick idea came to mind that just overall terrains alphabetically continue going through those savegames, put in some hours, enjoy myself, get some good progress to each of the savegames. It would not be bad idea to also go smallest to largest order, meaning starting from PMC Super Six 6km and ending with PMC King Corn 45km, "story" or savegame wise that would be just fine by me.

I am very enthusiastic and motivated of playing FS22 right now, especially with enhanced animal system mod plus with my own larger animal barns/sheds mod, doing contracts and just enjoying field work in general.

I would love to go to PMC Cereal Region 32km Start From Zero savegame and continue progressing that, what I recall there was GtX seed cleaner to production chains seed factory transition going on and I only had 2 claas lexion 8900 combines which is very low number as on my last big savegame I rocked with 5 claas lexion 8900's with autodrive controlling five grain carts, that was some sick shit dude

Also in grand scheme of things I would like to actually finish PMC Super Six 6km Start From Zero as that would be the least amount of gaming hours to achieve finished savegame (owning all fields and harvest them). Even more grander scale, I should finish FS19 PMC Grande Gardens 16km and PMC Iowa Garden City 8km savegames first, but at least the latter has not even fully got started, I don't even own my own land yet there (like fields).

This whole farming session would be in months level, meaning that as its now last day of september I would be playing the whole duration of october 2025 mainly because my financial situation is so shit, I'm broke, that I don't have enough money even to pay PMC web hosting fees and buy proper amount of groceries, so it will be a month of suffering, this is why I would like to immerse myself into large PMC terrains and take my mind away from the real life shit.

One thing I don't want to do is too big plans, for example those pathetic "ArmA 2 Exit Strategy" style ones which failed miserably, so if you make a plan for the next lets say four months to be playing FS22 or even FS19 on the side as well, yeah that is way too long time, in four months my financial situation has definitely stabilized, in fact this happens probably already in december because if not, then my life is really going down the shitter and my mood would be just terrible. So don't make too long plans, one month max, so saying that I play the next four weeks aka month of october just FS22 sounds fine to me because I'm financially locked into sitting on my ass just playing with PMC Gaming computer all day long without any sleeping schedule or other activities not to mention responsibilities.

So guess I will be doing a whole lotta farming in oct 25

Just a quick update on this topic. I am still playing on PMC Undefined Farms 20km savegame which focuses on enhanced animal system mod, learning about it and using it with my own "ten multiplier" animal coops/barns mod to see how big of animal herd do I manage to grow. So right now my mind still is about switching to the Start From Zero savegame with stories, screenshots and videos, but I am not done yet with this enhanced animal system savegame aka "DevSurf v0.2.5", currently doing a big corn and soybeans harvest, after that it should be smooth sailing with a lot of time accelerating and progress for animal counts.

In these past days and weeks have been secretly hoping that boredom and burnout would hit, knock me off from this over month long Farming Simulator 22 (FS22) gaming frenzy, but there is no end in sight for my enthusiasm and motivation to farm every day

Making plans is a bad idea because things change, for example what I just said. But now it definitely looks like I am going to continue playing until burnout puts stop to it. This means that all those wonderful official Start From Zero savegames get to see action.

I can not wait to get into one of those big boy terrains like PMC Cereal Region 32km, PMC Korkscrew 40km or the biggest and baddest of them all, PMC King Corn 45km

It feels like I've been doing all this "private training" on this throw away just for fun temporary savegame now, including the gaming I did already last year on PMC Project Orange 20240609, that savegame got also several hundred hours on it. Also this dates back to the PMC Super Six 6km Start From Zero REAL PROPER savegame where I cleared contracts board, multiple times. I have fond memories of those gaming sessions and I really want to put all my contracting "skills" and enthusiasm into play some more on those official savegames.

What I recall PMC Cereal Region 32km Start From Zero is in the growth phase, I have enough good equipment so game-play is enjoyable but for example there is only 3 or was it even low as 2 claas lexion 8900 combine harvesters, that is peanuts for terrain of that size that has hundreds of fields at 216ha size. What I can do with "a few days" of contracting there will skyrocket that farms growth to awesome level

When thinking about all the possibilities I can do on official Start From Zero savegames now with latest mods, perhaps even bringing in animal tending to the savegame (not sure though), I feel almost hyperventilating alike excitement

Also not to make any plans or "announcements", but I really want to create brand new medium size terrain (medium? larger than 10km but smaller than 32km), there is so much new knowledge accumulated from these hundreds of hours, could be over thousand hours by now actually, since the recent times, its probably thousands of hours since I actually created those large FS22 PMC terrains back in hmm was it 2022. All that terrain editing and design knowledge must be put to use, I have to, simply got to make another terrain, I will never forgive myself if I don't do one more FS22 terrain of that nice medium-ish size, there are way too many excellent editing and design ideas written down now.

Dunno man, I'm currently playing on PMC Undefined Farms 20km on "DevSurf v0.2.5" throw away just for fun temporary savegame, two claas lexion 8900s with midwest durus 18.2m headers are harvesting soybeans while FS22 AutoDrive is controlling grain cart tractors, game is running on the background so I see maybe 40% of the game-world so I can keep an eye that there wont be any collisions, so have nothing to do and that drives me into writing this shit down, maybe I should just shuddup and wait in silence instead, but hey who knows, maybe if anything of what I said above that would be fun to get done actually materializes, its then nice to look back into this topic, this post for example, and see that oh right the seeds of all those new ideas was already present at this time, marinating, waiting for such time that editing tools are broken out and the fun begins

OK OK, back to soybeans harvest
