But I saw the statements from Giants that Daggerwin posted and I feel a little better about the amount of new stuff being added.

Look, it won't be an entirely new game. Farming is farming after all and we have some basics we will keep, so some things will feel quite similar. That's normal. The difference is: We will add to what we have and make it better and we do that with every single game. Some things change, some remain the same and some new stuff gets added.

People love to tell us we didn't change the game (my favourite: It still looks the same as FS08 .. WTF guys?) but that's simply not true at all. Some people like to point out that they feel we didn't change it enough for their liking and I think that's fair.

We will add some things to FS19 that, at least in my book, will change a lot. Even the things we've already announced do that (for me at least). Like a real sky with a moving sun and moon? With clouds that turn grey before it rains so you can predict that? Might not sound like much for some of you, but for me that's a big deal. The graphic looks INSANE compared to FS17 (I'm not kidding, I'll show a comparison as soon as I can), we will have horses and.. well... woof woof .. (I didn't announce anything here!) .. also character customization ... these things make a difefrence already and we haven't even started to tell you guys what's coming.

I have a system that would have benefited from EVGA's 1060 board with 6GB on board. The original cost was under $300.00. Under Newegg, the current pricing is just over $500.00.

there is a pc game that has many of those features.

- Expanded chicken options like the other animals.
- Greenhouses that produce skids (like the sheep), so we can deliver ourselves.
- Option to deliver milk or have it sold automatically.
- Return of the fork delivery missions. Give us a little extra time so we can load on a flatbed
- Delivery missions from npc farmers and allow us to use our own truck/equipment (maybe a little extra pay for using our own)
- Out-of-the-box maps that have all animals on the main farm. I don't always like to drive the distance or buy extra equipment to tab to.
- Option to choose what we start with. Presets could be, start as a helper with zero equipment, a tractor or two...
- Option to rearrange our farm such as moving cows over here, sheep over there...
- Ability to create paths and roads
- Ability to remove shrubbery that we can't currently remove
- Maybe even landscape our farm a bit with flower beds, hedges..

Obviously I'd like to see a lot, but even some of the things mentioned would be awesome
