Am I being realistic?

Post by adammac5858 »

So with the new RP aspect Jessi has introduced me to (might as well given me heroin) I have a new found love for FS. Question though, is this ok for RP in your RESPECTFUL opinion? I have played for over 55 hours on New Woodshire. I was thinking of selling all of my equipment and land to see how much Capital it would give me, and move my farm to Lone Oak. Would this be realistic? I know it'd be more realistic to expand my farm on new Woodshire, but I really want to move to Lone Oak and this is the story of how I'm going to do it.

My brother has resigned his job as a police officer to help out on my farm, but he doesn't want to move from his hometown in Oregon. My wife and I made a decision to sell the farm, pack up the kids, move from Missouri and start new with my brother and his wife in Lone Oak.

I feel this makes it somewhat acceptable. I'll have roughly 1.3 million after selling all crops, animals, machinery, implements and land. Lol, thought I would have more. Banks gonna hate me for that large initial loan! Just curious if anyone has done the same, or has a better RP idea. Thanks in advance all!

This is probably as realistic as you can make it within FS =P
I assume people don't use Seasons, unless they say otherwise.

Sounds like quite the process and one I am sure that wasn't taken lightly! Sure will miss you here in New Woodshire but wish you the best of luck in your new family farm!
If you are looking to sell any of your old machinery, I'd be able to come and pick it up from ya as I'm just across town. I'll be looking on the community trader for anything :this:

I love making up a story for each map.

I've never done the sell everything as of yet but thinking of doing it with my Oakfield save as its got to a point where I can't farm it myself, and I like to do all the jobs, but I also want to keep it going to own all the fields :lol: I have about 60% of the fields atm

Outlaw Farms got a great deal with my Case IH Magnum 380 CVT. Got one last thing to sell.......my kids. Lol, jk. It's a harvester.

Thank you all, I figured I would do whatever I wanted, but value your input!

I don't think its unrealistic at all.. in fact.. for any kind of continuing story line, that's how u would do it.. or.. if u went "bust" on the old farm.. so yea.. as to 1.3 million in cash.. I will go out on a limb here and say u wont be gaining that much of an edge on lone oak with that so its certainly not over the top and still gives u plenty to work towards.. I like the story :)

Actually starting fresh on a new map would be unrealistic leaving your old farm progress behind. The way I see this is that if I invest time and earn money on a farm that profit will come with me to the next. Now I usually do this with the update of the same farm but even if you go someplace else its fine. Unless of course you enjoy the challenge starting brand new.

Rather than taking a loan I would use the government subsidies mod or similar to gain the money. Since you are selling your farm in New Woodshire that is all assets not debt.
