NO CONTRACTS, NO FARMING, START FROM SCRATCH to MILLIONAIRE!! (EXPERIMENT) FS22!

[@number1yota]

Yeah you finally said it, This really reminds me of playing the early console versions FS, FS15. Selling everything off to place wind turbines to have the money for good equipment and fields without using the bank loan. I also have a really bad habit of starting a farm and working hard upfront to get it established, and then I start another one again.

[@tinc82]

same habit ;)

[@stevencorscadden5767]

That's not how you are supposed to play?

[@Flho8]

😂

[@cactusjackNV]

I didn't know there was a right or wrong way to play the the game??

[@godlydevil1]

@@stevencorscadden5767 supposed to play? It is a game. Free flow game, you can game how you want.

[@jamesleeharris]

This is a fascinating idea. Build a solar/wind farm to generate the money and then just farm what you like rather than worrying about what brings in the most money for progressing. Me personally I like doing the green houses/gardens. If you like doing horses then do that. Much love MrSealyp I'll be trying this at the weekend.

[@razzlebazzle420]

I think horses were only really good for getting around, and might be made workable if you could hire grooms lol. I think it might have been cool if that pc mod that let you use cows to plow fields and pull carts made it to console, have a proper 1800s frontier farm experience.

[@40Beany]

Good experiment and showed off the generator side of FS22 which can get lost in other profits from farming and productions.

[@Qualjyn]

It's hardly even a "side". You plop them down and they make money. There's no gameplay there whatsoever. Taking them out of FS19 was a good idea from a gameplay standpoint but I guess people wanted them back.

[@40Beany]

@@Qualjyn As the game is Farming Simulator and diversifying into leasing land for solar arrays is what UK farmers are doing they should be included in the game. Whether you want to use them or not is entirely up your you.

[@carlrobinson6210]

Ah, I love the concept. I remember when i was in my late teens playing FS2009 on the pc where I believe Fendt was the only brand in game, there was no government subsidy. I remember with the start up money and I think loans buying turbines then leaving the game running on fast forward for hours then keep adding extra turbines when i had the money just to buy all the big equipment and field. This gave me a complete nostalgia trip. Looking back its amazing how far FS has developed from the grass roots it started with - its definitely a gave the developers should be proud of

[@Drone2games]

Thanks Mr S.P. Great break from the same old same old. Enjoyed the video. Awesome job

[@hybrid9mm]

I saw the title and immediately my mind went to The Spiffing Brits most recent er play through lol. Something to be mindful of you can easily beat start from scratch (with all the settings on) just using solar and wind the game economy is only difficult when you farm. Good luck.

[@Qualjyn]

The game economy isn't difficult when you farm either. Very nearly everything you can do in the game is guaranteed profits over time, it just takes much longer on hard economy, and some crops are more worth it than others. "Difficulty" isn't really a thing in Farming Simulator, just different levels of tedium. The only realistic way to put yourself in an unwinnable situation is to impose some truly absurd restrictions on yourself that would make it impossible to recover from a mistake.

[@hybrid9mm]

@@Qualjyn even with ridiculous self imposed limits the game is easy once you know how to make money, time is the only thing holding the player back and even then it can be manipulated. FS is meant to be fun and relaxing so it’s no surprise it’s easy to beat.

[@wmgthilgen]

Though you are making a bunch of passive income, your still responsible for taxes etc. etc. etc.

[@henkdefauw]

I love playing from scratch, with the contracts you drive a lot different machines. I like that 🚜

[@kellyvanstaveren72]

I play start from scratch from that reason. Build the farm however you want. It's a grind but worth it

[@scootersworkbench6347]

With Generators there are a few things to consider. So..the Hourly income is shown in store based on Best Factors for 24hrs a day. So If you have clouds that will impact your solar income, as well as night and the length of "Sun time". For "wind" generators, there is an Optimal Wind Speed that is required to generate the store displayed income. What I've noticed is that some mods have the optimal windspeed at 15 mph/kph but the wind typically blows at 2-4 mph. The highest that I've seen it blow is 8 during a storm. So you typically never get the Stored Display Income.

[@fs_dave]

The Spiffing Brit recently covered Haut Beyleron with solar panels and made a billion. Generators are powerful.

[@HarborxSharkGaming]

This is an amazing idea. I put down a few rental properties to start making money. So far so good. Hopefully this series continues!

[@Ken_Stauder]

I think most of us have tried the generators at some point, found them to not pay as advertised and left them alone. Good job bringing it up , maybe someone makes a mod to fix this issue also.

[@DeeDee.Ranged]

Don't forget the maintenance costs that drags down the generated income.

[@kellyvanstaveren72]

Yeah I find they don't pay nearly as much as they should

[@RSCARDS-qr4kg]

Great Video. Ive always had this concept in my mind,, but could never commit, Well Played MrSealup

[@whytedragon7022]

I think this was awesome to show this side of the game and the possibilities as well showcase some good modders whom made these mods as well. I think if nothing else see what you can make on easy vs normal vs hard economy?

[@theironwolf2421]

I think its because you have your months set to 1 day, instead of more days, what i think is if you have more days it should give the right amount

[@MrsSimGamer]

Absolutely loved this! What a great experiment!! Thank you for taking the time to do this!!

[@dereksmith6126]

Yep, you're right. Never thought he'd get anywhere!

[@budgetracing3425]

That has opened my eyes to the "Generators" potential for sure, loved you idea and hopefully you make a lets play on SV22.

[@amoslittrell785]

Excellent idea and concept! Really like one-off videos like this

[@alectw]

Many ppl on yt have done this😅

[@karljones9357]

That was really interesting, really enjoyed watching you start a non farm and still you made your fortune. Awesome

[@Feldynn]

Certainly an interesting idea and experiment, definitely helps to highlight the value passive income generators can have in game!

[@rcwayt4020]

The difficulty mode definitely makes a difference in generator output. Interesting video, Mr. sealyp!

[@rubenrego1958]

A very cool idea, i might try it in my letsplay to get some additional revenue. By the way, hope Mrs. SealyP is feeling better. Keep going strong.

[@yota6207]

Great video on the generators. I've added them as supplements but still farmed. Gave me a nice cushion. Thank you for the video! I love your content!

[@Knobelkopf]

The income shown typically is the max. Highest wind (xml setting), sun, seasonal. My guess is other generator mods are all based on some form of the original solar and wind turbines mods. So this seasonal and weather relation carries through. Just a guess

[@GunMetalEngineer]

I start allot of my maps selling everything they give me; including buildings; and doing “passive income” (greenhouses, solar, etc) then start selling trees… build up enough $ to get good equipment to use strait away; instead of that low productive junk.. and then I build the thing the way I want as well… no mans land and western wilds are my two main maps… seems to work for what I’m doing… now that I’m on farm-22 (started week ago) I find myself mainly mining and logging… This kind of thing you are doing reminds me heavily of my fs-11 game play from a few years ago.. Figured I’d buy them all and learn em and play… this productions thing is WAY different! If ya all looking for something different; try fs-11… you’ll appreciate everything in 22.. I’d say my 2 fav ones are 15 & 19…

[@aidanmartin05]

These are my favorite let's plays ,start with nothing ,and build an empire 👍

[@maria-dt5ux]

Well I was curious about how this series will be and what it was about. I love the start from scratch series. Things like that takes time and it should. I know it isn't everyones kind of tea, but I love it, see the process and change and development

[@nicklehman3984]

Stone Valley always sent the possible harvesting contracts straight to withered for me. Also the sell point at the south wouldn't accept crop despite being the sell point for the contract. I love the map though, hope it works for you

[@DaleHazelwood]

Great video MrSeslyP. I love the concept and will try it myself.

[@cryptomike543]

Possibly using Oma Tana’s older production pack with the small $10k buildings. Buy raw materials, make products for sale. Kind of a cottage industry. They produce reasonably slowly, so not over powering the start from scratch. Could mix feed for sale. Stuff like that.

[@maria-dt5ux]

I like the concept of this and I think it is a good way to explore and see how it works. I don't think this alone is something for me to watch in the long term. But implement it into a series, using it as a business and extra income. That I would love to see. I will keep my eyes open of this kind of videos. Thank you so much for this video

[@SpacemanSpliff101]

I´m glad you´re trying different stuff. Your channel, your choices. Keep up the good work !

[@corporalollie1103]

I personally enjoyed the one-off vid. I had the same issue as you, trying to figure out why i'm not making the money it says. I think further research needs to be done and explained to all of us. Maybe interview a mod and how they came up w/ that number. Maybe the displayed number is the average per month if you ran a full year.

[@MrRabbiTricky]

Hmm, inspiration from the Spiffing Britt's "exploit"? ;)

[@hybrid9mm]

Great minds 👌😂 “I’m going to pollute my account with money” It’s not a new exploit though I did a field of solar just for a laugh a month or so after the game launched, I was genuinely surprised.

[@CavalierRoy]

We was playing on hard economy and found that issue with generators, at the end of the month we was left scratching our heads. We did the maths and soon realised game difficulty effected the amount you was meant to make so we was getting less than the displayed amount, would have been nice to have those prices change with difficulty for better planning and understanding.

[@DisTurbedSimulations]

Some solar panels in game work from day light hours, and take years to break even

[@jasonrowe268]

Thanks for doing this experiment. I’ve always thought that the generators paid less than was stated. False advertising by the suppliers I think.

[@haydenfarms2120]

The solar panels and wind energy are dependent on sunlight and wind on that day. That is a basegame feature

[@roadking5643]

Awesome! People now have other ways to play FS starting from scratch

[@OMG2020]

This is such a great idea. Awesome video and a great way to start FS differently then the usual.

[@tpeel6309]

Brilliant! That was a great way to become a retired millionaire! I love the farming role play but I appreciate what you've shown us here. Cheers!

[@maria-dt5ux]

Yeah but when I thinking about it, it is really realistic. You don't have sunshine all day, don't have wind all the time as different directions +++ But I agree, the income in terms of what it says it is supposed to be seem a bit of

[@ryanpauloneeyed9669]

This is hilarious, The Spiffing Brit just did a similar video recently.

[@greghilton7797]

I enjoyed that. Great idea. Keep 'em coming.

[@TD5_Badger]

Interesting concept. Going to try and build the rollercoaster on Silverrun. (Never actually built it) but without cutting down a single tree on pc. Am going to add a sell point for the iron ore and use that to start from scratch. Also I have to pay the mine 50% value of the ore sold each time.

[@SteveJ0966]

Interesting exercise, not sure about a Lets Play but certainly worth it as an experiment. What I'd have been interested to know is how much you ended up spending in total to achieve that final income, and how long it took to recoup that and go into profit.

[@Baerenpapa007]

I assume the fluctuation in generator income depends on sunshine hours a day (month) as well as wind speed.

[@SimAsylum]

This is a fun experiment but the fluctuation in payments is really confusing. Thanks for something a little different to get me thinking about how to make the game a little better!

[@delightedmammal1741]

The payments from wind and solar energy are affected by the weather and wind conditions in game. That’s why they fluctuate in profit so much. It’s been a base game feature since day one. Unfortunately though, you never really see the maximum income potential these generators can bring in but they do provide a nice cushion for income whilst running a farm.

[@randomlife718]

Haven't played or watch FS content in a while. Missed your voice man. Have fun!

[@glennconroy3087]

Great video I love all of your content thanks for doing this one It opened my eyes on some generators that I hadn't thought of using.

I started this video not knowing was "the one and only Mr.Sealyp?" And at 50 seconds I'm like "He has lost his mind!!!!" Game has done it! I'm going to watch this video... better be winning golden chocolate bar wrapper...

[@DeeQ-cy8xt]

This is great idea especially on this map where land is a fortune 👍👍

[@danielgordon6362]

Been playing fs for 8 years r so and never made 1 million always get board of a map and start a new 1 lol

[@pammy5260]

Oh i thought that was just me, literally every game doesnt last. I have this thing where once i know how the game plays i start again thinking i can do better. Then i do, but then there are new mods and i want to use those so i start again with them. I usually find out what vehicles work best with what and get them. Or i place a silo bunker and it makes the ground raise up so high i delete the game 😂

[@razzlebazzle420]

I turn every map I play into endless rolling grasslands. Usually use a TMR production to dump grass and hay in and get TMR out. Then max out my game with cows. PS4 lags quite badly if you put too many large cow enclosures together haha.

[@DeeDee.Ranged]

Depending on the map I always use sheds with solar panels when possible and put some windturbines in as it will give you a steady income and if possible use electric tractors/harvesters as it definetely cuts down on fuel bills drastically. Their is a mod called Pack_Electric that converts basegame vehicles to electric ones. Sadly that mod is only for PC afaik.

[@sternyourtube]

Hello. This was fun to watch :)

[@peterclarke3300]

Great video mr P as always and rather a odd result considering what is advertised with the generators 👏👏👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@IrishFoxHound]

The figure you see of income amount when planting it.. is gross.. the figure you receive in net.. taxes?

[@Qualjyn]

Supposedly the figure shown is the average amount, but apparently the game does actually calculate actual income based on weather conditions and the month.

[@stephenmurray9850]

Just wondering if the mods machines you put in are not engineered like the game ones and therefore don't pay what they say they will??? Might be an interesting idea to set 1 farm up with FS22 stuff and then do another one with just mods and see what the pay per day is??? anyway something to think about. Thanks for the video.

[@davidclaydon6907]

Loving this. Keep going👍👍

[@davehooper6481]

I’ve been playing this game for about four years, and I have never plowed ground or planted a single crop. I usually do the start from scratch and I allow myself one pick up and a chainsaw so I guess I’m starting off a little better than you did with a bicycle and zero dollars

[@pipedreamin]

Now that you have all this money generation, do the let’s play and don’t buy any equipment, just lease, don’t allow yourself to keep it more than X months so you have a constant variety of equipment

[@DisTurbedSimulations]

Slurry generator thing, and use distribute to pipe it to a miniBGA

[@BlackbeardKNAC]

Seems pretty realistic. The "clean energy" lie is almost exactly like this, HUGE investment, tiny return. Feels good upfront until you see the massive graveyards of rusting windmill parts and toxic dumps of solar panels and lithium batteries but HEY! it feels good on the front end doesn't it? Look! we're helping!

[@AdrianHarper-m3x]

Fantastic work mrsealyp 👍

[@morath2339]

Nice way to think outside the box

[@thelonewolf_nz7640]

I wonder if the incomes are based on 3 day months?

[@albaandroid3150]

Are you taking into account the mantainance costs which may account for the short fall ?

[@DancerOfClouds]

At 6 years you could have sold all of the generators and had a bunch more money. Now sell everything and see how much you spent getting there. Great concept though and I really enjoyed it.

[@lspears7285]

I’ve noticed this before and now I’m wondering if it is due to the month being 1 day; so prorated so to speak. I haven’t done a day for day run to see if then the amounts generate what they actually say.

[@janeknisely4383]

Very inspiring, thank you.

[@godlydevil1]

The thing is can the same thing be done if you are paying monthly/daily expenses everyone has? You know things like eating costs, rent/mortgage, car loans etc.

Eclectic philanthropist sounds better than apocalyptic pepper 😂😂

[@milesbrush4863]

Any chance you have the electronic variable price mod i think it is shows daily electronic price on screen at a point in day or is that a pc only thing

[@JoshuaCook-t3t]

pretty sure there's a debuff per generator placed, not even if it's different, IE gas, wind, solar. it counts them as 3 and you 'll lose an exponential amount more per generator placed. so, a few of the big ones and then sell off the others will yield a significant amount more.

[@BigJoeKasulischannel]

Thumbs up!

[@maria-dt5ux]

I don't think this ruines the game at all. It's just a extra bonus income etc.. Adds different things to the game, things that is a part of real life

[@andykemp4968]

This is brilliant Mr Sealey P going to be following this 👍

[@davidc2328]

try speeding up time in the menu instead of skipping by sleeping, i have a feeling (didn't actually test it) that productions don't produce as much as you skip time but do produce when i speed up time. perhaps the same goes for the generators.

[@dereksmith6126]

You cut down trees, you eat your lunch, you go to the lavatory.
