The new Farms are LOADS better than the old ones. They really do allow farming areas to look like farms. And while some people love or hate mods, this new expansion adds a ton of new mechanics for modders to play with. I imagine you'll get some things you want for farmland from modders down the road.

That being said, being able to create farms similar to how it worked in parklife would be pretty great.

However with the release of Industries, cities now can look much better out of the gate without having to mod it!

I don't think it is. Those sure look better, but if you look closely, all those farms are similar dimensions to what we have in game. And they're super tiny. The only thing that changed is that the orange blob has been replaced with real textures. They are all still perfectly rectangular, and small, nothing bigger than 4x2 squares, which is a ridiculous 32m x 16m. When have you ever seen a farm even 1/10 of that size? The ones that look bigger are just repetitions of the the same farm type. There are no circular farms, no different shapes, no large farms. Just teeny tiny blocks =/
But they do look great, so there's that at least!

And just look at how much traffic those farms are generating. There should be almost none from farmlands of that size, but in that screenshot there are hundreds of cars. The proportions are all just completely wrong.

1/10... you mean 10 times right? othervise it's 3,2m x 1,6m :)

Haha better farms, I remember this being the hottest topic every day for many months before the game even released... Here we go again!
Definitely agree that farms don't fit well into the current system, but it probably really isn't easy given the engine. Definitely better to have smaller farms that you can place next to each other to look fine than having huge 16x16 squares.
But you know what's worst for me? The FREAKING ANIMAL SOUNDS! It is literally one mooing loop repeating every two seconds if you zoom close. Please! I don't care, have some devs make the sounds themselves, just fix this thing :D
