    [SP] Old MacDonalds Farm adventure.

    Old MacDonalds Farm adventure: A farmers Parody
    Location: Chernarus.
    Game version: ARMA2: Combined Operations.
    Game Mode: Singleplayer.
    Addons: ARMA2 and ARMA2:OA.
    Version: v1.03






    Description:
    Old Macdonald has woken up early and has some chores to do. Explore his farm, meet his friends and embark on a few adventures. Interact with the animals as you try to sort out the chaos that the day has brought.

    This mission is a parody of the kids song 'Old Macdonald had a farm and is intended to have a lighthearted and comical feel to it. Trouble seems to follow Old Macdonald where ever he goes, as does his sidekick 'Zeke Jimbob' who is always hanging around looking for a new adventure and a bit of fun. I originally made this mission for my kids because my wife didn't really like them picking up guns and blowing away any living thing that moved, but adults will get value out of this no doubt as it is a little different to your usual combat mission. This is more about doing other jobs around the farm [Many with the animals].

    SavedByGrace has kindly donated his time and voice to help me try achieve a deeper connection with the characters. He has done a great job with the voices and the mission wouldn't be the same without them.


    Features:
    * Voice Acting by SavedByGrace. [Huge shoutout here...so many voices. Thanks heaps]
    * Auto vehicle entry and exit, so kids do not have to use the "Action Menu". Just stand near the vehicle facing toward it. You will disembark if at zero speed for 3 seconds or more.
    * 14 tasks to complete.
    * Farm Racing.
    * Beat the farm jump record.
    * Solving riddles.
    * Restricted gun use.
    * Loads of songs.
    * Use radio [0,0,7] to playback hints of your active tasks [most of them].

    There is some strange stuff going on in this mission...
    Just started playing but so far I had a lot of fun. I'm a huge fan of anything "unusual", and this has a good chance to become one of my favorite unusual missions.
    Thanks for sharing.

    This is amazing - what you have done with a military simulator is both sadistic and fun at the same time. My kids are too young to play this, but they enjoyed the music and the noises!! Nice one, we will be playing again tomorrow!

    Anyway, here's a quick vid I did...

    This looks like great fun. What age are your kids and what ages would you say the game is aimed at?
    Documentation is not a dirty word.
