I used to, but after rather disappointing results I'm tempted to change it. |

I'm currently playing my Pro cyclist career on extreme. It's not that difficult if you know how to plan the season and use team tactics you still will win a lot even at the beginning. |

Always play on extreme. I find it realistic to not win all the races, hence why I like losing 66% of the ones i ride.
I personally feel Extreme should be called Hard, and there should be some more difficult version of extreme instead. |

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the game harder than extreme difficulty? In that case, please tell me. |

Hm, yeah I guess. Played to the Giro as Dimension Data, so practically the worst World Tour team, and I lead the ranking by far. Went 1-2 in MSR with Cav-Renshaw, won most Cobbles classics, even RVV, with Hagen, top 5'ed all ardennes with Slagter, even podium in LBL. Cummings won Pais el Vasco, so we lead by a bit of a margin. It just seems so unrealistic. The problems mainly seems to be that the classics are too easy, as I struggle a bit more in the high mountains, however this is partly due to the weak Mountain team.
I prefer playing World Tour, so if it was possibly to up the difficulty value in the editor in would be nice. I just don't know how |

I play a custom continental Canadian team with low budget 10 rider. I play normal and I don’t pause. Forcing to make you choice on a split second.. give realistic results.

That was my solution too, dont pause and the game gets a lot more fun.

I’m curious, how do you manage the last 5km when you have 2 option , even more sometimes. Sprinter vs puncher on the northern classic in a +\- 30 rider bunch? Do you pick one and leave the other on automatic? How do you manage the keyboard? Do you go with the mouse?

The way I play is used in my story, so I am not allowed to use automated at any point in the race. (if it is an important WT race)
But I would not do that anyway, I would choose what rider I think could win, and from 15-10 km have him follow the next best of my riders.
If I want one to attack and the other to stay it is a huge risk of losing one of them, as my only option is to put the 2nd on hold position at like 90%+ before the attack, and just hope he survives until I can get back to him. But that is the good thing you won’t often get two in top 10 – just as in real cycling – unless you have an extremely overpowered team on that particular stage.
I primarily use mouse.
