For the first time in the series, organize your team in a paceline at any time during the race to protect your riders and allow them to prepare ahead of key-areas. Your opponents not only weigh in the potential of your riders for each stage, but also evaluate them with a long-term perspective.
FINALLY! 3 years of PMs for that and now it is there

And does this mean the AI isn't looking ar your GC/points/etc position already? Because it really feels like it does. Or is it talking season long ranking, which is odd because not even real teams and riders care about that in any quantity.
That would probably be a good improvement if they did look at World Tour standings though, because it means already good riders and riders in great form are more targeted then young riders and riders who haven't shown good form recently, still wouldn't be worth a big announcement though, just saying it would be good for the game.
I found contract negotiations too difficult. I also found that the strongest riders would always win mountain stages. Fitness, tactics and luck only seemed to play a very small part.
PCM 2015 still works fine for me, just a shame that there is no good 2017DB for it.
PCM 2016 is not good because of the bad MO/HI stat calculation.
That and the new 3D interface really ruins the game. Additionally the +/- pace button is flawed and annoying like hell.
The talk about a new stat calculation for the 3D-race sounds good, hopefully the new game will be fun again.
Website updated, promising improvements to AI and at least it seems like we can now make individual training schedules again. But, as always, let's stay very skeptical. https://letour-gam...

Beta guys, do you know if you can hire riders in january in your first season? I skipped PCM16 but they removed this in PCM15 and I miss it.
I think they removed it in PCM 14, but they don't seem to have added it back for PCM 17.
I would ask all the people from the Balkan to contact me so that we can create our community.
List of Balkan countries:
- Albania
- Bosnia & Herzegovina
- Bulgaria
- Croatia
- Greece
- Kosovo
- Macedonia
- Montenegro
- Romania

Should I preorder and get the discount? I was so disappointed last year.
If you do it on Steam then you used to get 2 hours playtime in which you could still return it for a full refund. Not sure if they have gotten rid of that though
