Farming Simulator 2011 Demo

Although the technology has evolved so much in the last few decades, farmers are still critical in order to assure the production of cereal and vegetables, even if the machinery does all the work. Hence, someone must still scour the fields all day long when the season comes, as well as take care of the lands after the crops have been harvested.

Farming Simulator 2011 is part of the popular series that gives you the opportunity to experience the busy, yet peaceful life of a farmer, by taking care of the fields all year round and assure the quality of the resulting crops. Thus, by utilizing a variety of machinery, you get to enjoy the countryside from the comfort of your own home, as well as see where the food actually comes from and how much work goes into it.

Just like in the previous titles, the game puts a wide array of missions at your disposal in the career mode, each one of which relates to different activities. You also have to handle a variety of machinery to achieve these goals, ranging from basic tractors, to huge combines equipped with the latest technology when it comes to obtaining the maximum amount of product from the crops.

Although most of the scenarios have a time limit in order for you to pass them, that does not stop you from wandering aimlessly on the map, which has been designed to include quite a few fascinating views and landscapes. Thus, although you're not really encouraged to do so, it can be extremely relaxing to just walk around the fields, as well as climb the nearby hills and get an overview on your lands.

The fact that the graphic quality has been significantly improved also helps, especially since the vehicles have been modeled after their real counterpart and they are more than detailed. Their handling system is also quite friendly and comes in handy when you frequently have to juggle with containers and various trailers, which require more precision than usual.

Although Farming Simulator 2011 can be fun when you stick to the missions as well, there's definitely much more to it than just that, mainly due to the fact that the environments are very calming and a pleasure to explore. Thus, whether you use a vehicle to move around or not, it is worth it to take a journey to the countryside from time to time.
