I jus wanted to ask, maybe i missed something, but why there are Cyans (you have 50 for the start) and collections of riders you can have, when there is no Armada mode in PCM16? Or is there some multiplayer mod where you can use these cards? I was not browsing multiplayer section yet, but i wonder why we have an option to buy Cyans this year...

From what I can tell, I have been getting water from team mates who do that job. On some mountain stages I was without team mates in the main group and then I was running out of water and had to get it myself. |

I think this is working properly, just the different HUD changed the look of it.
From what i have seen, the phases of bidon are:
blue
half blue/half grey
grey
blinking bottle - you are in serious trouble soon
In Pro player, my teammates are supporting me with water on regular basis, no problem there...

Nice team. 
Last year i have seen some ridiculous squads being assembled, like Astana with seven 83+ climbers, but this is even better.

eyolfur was(don't know if still is) 2 hours ago on main chat multiplayer
he took suggestions from users
the others were for changing time at ladder,i was for montain stages in tournement mode
a fast solution from him was a montain pack
there will be at some point in the future a montain pack
i played cobble and hills(classic races),most of tours start with flat stages but to actually play a montain stage like right away,you can't.
i saw in workshop tag like racesmultiplayer(0),so even communities can add multiplayer races
forgot that isn't editor in pcm 2016

Play pro cyclist mode to learn what's going on in the game with training, schedule, managing the races, etc.
The career mode is sadly, pretty much, unplayable currently and online is struggling as far as I'm aware. |

Thank you! I aren't really sure what to be doing. I keep receiving information from the leader to do this and that. When I'm asked to protect someone, how do I do that? I tried to right click on the guy and give the protect command but it wasn't available to select?
Also that bar which I can move up and down using num. 8 & 5. What does this actually do? |

Is the WC bug fixed in Be a Pro?
I had a bug that I couldn't play the WC (ITT and RR) with my Pro. (happened in 2nd season once, and in 1st season another time iirc) |

Someone know if you can use the old stage variants packs from 2015 PCM to PCM 2016. So you don´t have to play the same Tour de France every season? |

I have the same with various riders on various races. You need press F4 every time when you select him. Bug
And another, minor but annoying: when you assign shortcut to rider and double tap assigned button then camera not moving to this rider like past years so you need clicking on the riders panel each time. Annoying for those who have grown accustomed to quickly move between groups or riders using the keyboard. |

The most important thing to know is the pause key. Press P to halt the game, this give you time to read the instructions from your team and then apply it to your rider.
The commands are from left to right:
Attack: A strong attack to get away from other riders in the group
Keep Position: Should be obvious. You have to set the max effort your rider should use to maintain the position. It is better to right click a certain rider to make your rider maintain that position.
Individual effort: Your rider will not try to maintain a certain position. You have to set the effort of your rider.
Relay: Your rider will lead the peloton or group doing turns with other relaying riders. You have to set the effort of your rider
Infinite relay: Your rider will lead until exhausted or overtaken. You have to set the effort of your rider.
Get water bottles: Your rider falls back to the end of the peloton or group to fetch water for all team mates
To protect a rider, you have to select your rider first, then right click the other rider and select the protect option. You should see a coloured shield at to the protected rider, and the same colour shield at your rider.
The effort bar defines how much effort your rider is willing to do. The higher the effort, the faster the heart beat. The faster the heart beat, the more energy your rider will consume, which is represented by the yellow bar.
It is not recommended to use all yellow before the end of the finish line, but your rider can gain back some yellow when riding at lower effort, for example during downhill.
The effort depends on the instruction you gave to the rider. Most of the time when maintaining position your rider can take it easy in the middle of the peloton, so the effort is used as a maximum your rider should do to keep his position.
When riding on individual effort or when relaying, the effort directly translates to the riding speed of your rider.
When your rider is close to a sprint, the attack icon will change to a sprint icon. Click it to make your rider sprint. Both attacking and sprinting uses the red bar, this bar will fill up quickly when riding at lower effort. |

The one time I've been at the two WC races, I've crashed without riding them. So guess it's still bugged. |

How long does the stages take to load for you guys?
I have to wait a lot of time, something like 4 / 5 min to load each stage. |
