About This Game

The sequel to the best-selling worldwide hit "Farming Simulator" has loads of new features!

Assume the role of a farmer experiencing the challenge of 18 hour days running a new farm in the middle of beautiful rolling countryside.
You start the game by choosing from a small collection of vehicles and machinery to explore your fairly sparse farmland which measures just 4 km. As you progress through the game you complete a variety of tasks like breeding and feeding the cows or spreading manure, milking, plowing, seeding and baling to build up wealth to invest in newer and better equipment and machinery.
Multi-player mode allows you to manage your farm together with friends over the Internet or local area network.
With career mode you take on the role of a young farmer and experience the workaday life of the countryside in a completely adaptable world.
Choose from loads of authentic licensed farming equipment including tractors, combine harvesters, plows, seeders and balers.
Thanks to the licensing of machinery from leading manufacturers including DEUTZ-FAHR, KRONE, HORSCH, PÖTTINGER and VOGEL & NOOT you are able to take control of authentic farming equipment.

FEATURES:

  • Career mode with business section and cattle breeding

This is the game you wanted your entire life. It's probably the best game ever made. Don't believe me? Ok then, take a look at these amazing features this game offers:

*4 different crop types. Ever wanted to have a variety in your farming sim games? This is where it's at. It can't get any better than this.
*Cows. With the new motion-track technology, these cows are probably the most detailed you will ever see. They move, eat and do other stuff just like in real life. It's 100% accurate!
*Next-next-gen graphics. With all these kids playing their Xbox One's and PS4's, talking about the "next-gen graphics", they don't know that Giants Software already did it. These stunning graphics have been considered to be even more realistic than real-life itself!
*Atmosphere. You can spend hours sitting in your tractor, listening to nature sounds, watching the beautiful scenery with those realistic animations.
*Multiplayer. Ever wanted to have a farm with friends or family? Now you can! With all the features listed above, you can just keep playing this game and never even stop! This is currently the only multiplayer game that has been proven to have absolutely zero connection issues and no lag!
*Perfectly balanced. While other farming games can be a little unrealistic with money, crops and other things, this game is balanced, so everyone can have fun while playing the most realistic game ever!

Still not convinced? Read again!

10/10 would play forever.

Farming Simulator 2011
Is a pretty good game. It's all about you are a farmer to run a business, buy new tools, tractors and more. You begin with fairly simple things but it is easy to upgrade themselves.

The game itself does not have the best graphics, but you still get a good gaming experience. There is also a multiplayer which is very fun to play on.

This game is very time consuming and it takes time to wait for things to grow, but there is always something to do.

My experience of the game is that it's too bad the graphics for my taste but I recommend it anyway. There are also very many Mods to download.

If you find this game on a sale i highly recommend it.

I would like to give this game
7/10
becouse the game is so good of possibility for mods.

I have Farming Simulator 14 on my ipad. When i saw this at a very reasonable price, I jumped on it. It hasn't let me down a bit. Love it. Wife hates it. And so do the kids who now never have a chance to get on the computer. Sorry!

I give a thumbs up to the "Farming Simulator" franchise.
The reasons are:

1- Its absolutly relaxing gameplay, the closest you can get to nature without leaving the house.
2- It is by far the most deep game that can still be played "passivly", meaning you can fullfil other life duties such as reading/ studying and still enjoy this game in the background.
3- Has enough activities to engage you when you have more time and choose to play more "activly".
4- Even provides multiplayer to enjoy with friends!
5- Very educational for urban people like me who never even knew a thing or 2 about farming.

I will gladly recommend all the versions even today: 2011, 2013, 2015 every game has a set of achievments and the older it is the more basic the gameplay is. So if you are new to the franchise you can happily start from the oldest one but if you are looking for eye candy of course the newer look better ;)

This game is so f-ing incredible, I genuinely had to remove my pants whilst playing, lest the gigantic boner it induced tear a hole through the bottom of my desk and proceed to penetrate the underside of my jaw.
I then proceeded to whack off furiously over the hard, uncensored, corno fields I was harvesting with my long wang blade. When I was finished, I was unable to determine the difference between what was cow's milk being transported to the dairy farm, and what was part of the gallon of man juice I consequently covered my entire computer setup in. I'm still trying to scrape parts of it out of the GPU as I write this.

This game isn't for the weak of ♥♥♥♥♥. It's a hardcore orgyfest for the elite.

I rate this a truthful 12 inches out of 10.

Buy it. Right now.

Farming Simulator 2011 is the ultimate experience of farming in 2011. I recommend it to anyone who likes physics errors, haybales sticking to everything (maybe I'm farming sticky weed?!), or the arduous task of figuring out what the hell all the things in the shop are/do. I can't remember what other games came out in 2011 so I'm retroactively giving this GOTY 2011 honors.

The game works okay if you play seriously. If you don't, laughs will happen. With friends is more fun but after a while it gets really boring.

I dont know about you but driving huge manly machines around whilst destroying wildlife and screaming something about corn is appealing. Be prepared for the slowest game ever. Snow not included.

For me, this game is unplayable. Part of the problem is that I use Dragon NaturallySpeaking instead of keypress. While most software accepts the verbal command "press E"as the same as a physical keypress of the letter E, this game doesn't. I will be deleting it from my hard drive after 15 minutes of frustration: a new low record for me.
