Man-Game is basically a fantasy world that evolves around different paramtres than real life cycling does, I dont see how a lack of realism is a flaw in the concept?
Because I don't like it? As I said a few posts before, everyone has it's own opinion and I realise I'm very alone in this one. It doesn't take away my right to suggest changes.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I think one of those guys is even made up. Like van der Hugenhaben or Mehr-Wenige

I always thought Tenorio was based on the made up rider for SN DFL story |

Young Vietnamese sprinter who's pretty good over hilly terrain. Achieved some decent results in Asia during current and past season.
What do you guys think of Yevgeniy Gidich? Seems a promising young Kazakh but I can't put my finger on his specialty. Seems a good sprinter and a pretty decent puncheur, but almost won on the Cameron Highlands stage of Langkawi too? Any thoughts?

Somebody will surely know it better, but wasn't it that we started the ManGame with a savegame that was in its second season and thus had some new regens?

Honestly, if you want a realistic DB, there are tons of other story games you can play with one, or just play PCM yourself.
I see no reason why Man Game should strive to be like every other game and why a specific real life name needs to match up to a specific skill set in a management game 10 years old. If you really want realism, that's fine, but there are plenty of other places to get it without messing with the Man Game DB imo. After all, we completely adjust the calendar to fit with unrealistic, exotic teams. This is far more realistic than that.
Anyway, I've said my piece on that before. Regardless, more stat inflation is not something I think the games needs in any sense at this point, though I am also against hastening decline even further.
RIP Exxon Duke, David Veilleux, Double Feature, and Monster Energy |

I believe SN said Flügel was added from being a star in a story on PPDB.nl that SN loved

I don't know where you got that from. I'm not saying it not might be true, but it's the first time I hear about it.
As far as I remember from reading older posts, the game started with a draft of the best riders in the PT. What you are saying might have happened in the second season when the CT was introduced.
Also, I think Tenorio was added to the game in 2010.

Two Jelle Wallays were somehow added to the DB. When the mistake was pointed out, instead of deleting one of them, SN came up with this.

I just read the story once and saw a Justo Tenorio and knew he wasn't real so put two and two together there's a chance it was just a stock name from PCM but the guys stats are near enough to the guy from SN story I thought it couldn't be a coincidence |

Have done some research to asian talents, especially Taiwanese, but I find it difficult to set stats. I have put some just to show which type of rider they are, and the potential.
I have also found some free agents with stats which are quite far from the actual rider, f.ex Climber Yang which are 54MO in the DB. I don't expect them to be added like this, but I hope it could help a little.

For rider born in '97, Ti, Fung and Jung are too good to be added this year for sure. Plus no way would they develop like that. Tu could become a Cobbles beast with good HL and SP, one of the games best. Fung would be even worse, he'd be on a level with Bewley if not higher. Jung probably the games best Stage Racer of all time.

I don't think "Game Breaking Beast" is a rider type suggestion

I think its quite easy to make beasts when you suggest riders that haven't really been televised much and you are just going from results and moght not have the best understanding on how easy it it is to boost riders efficiently in MG. But I can deffo see your standpoint MM
