To add on that, the limits for 6 & especially 5 potential guys, especially sprint, are too high.
I saw around 50 guys with 80SP or higher.
Yup, it's far too generous right now, in the saved game I tested with (the one I mentioned earlier) when I looked at the pre-existing riders after creating the game, there were 126 riders with a potential sprint score of 80 or above, a scary number. By the start of the 5th season there were 57 riders with a sprint of 80 or above.
It's a big problem!
For example, with the DB 2013 I finished Paris-Roubaix with a peloton of 24 riders during my third season.
I started a new career with the DB 2014 and looking at the potential I saw over 30 riders with a potential to more than 81 in sprint and this is the same in all statistics. |

But a very fixable one, a new set of YoungRiderCarac files would fix it. Though you would need to restart the career, otherwise too many riders already in the game have high potential stats |

Exactly.
Sorry for my english but the "new set of YoungRiderCarac files" already exists or will come out shortly? |

The races aren't in the right folder.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please read this through before asking a question.
The answer to by far most questions...
You have not installed the 2014 DB to the correct folder.
If you have the Steam version, you have to manually change the installation path. In most cases, the correct path is something like C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Pro Cycling Manager - Season 2013.
If you have the regular version, please check that your installation folder says 'Season 2013'. If it's e.g. 'Saison 2013' or 'Seizonen 2013' or similar, you may have to change the installation path too.

I have the regular version and I've tried to name it both Season and Seizoen but it didnt make any difference. All the jerseys and teams are 2014 so... |

It might be a bit stupid question, but are you sure you have the Expansion Pack installed? (most stages come with the Expansion Pack, while 2014 shirts come in the 2014 DB download - you need both of them).

No doubt that they are overpowered in the 2014 DB - they were unpowered in the Expansion Pack.
Hopefully, we'll be able to hit the right balance in the next version.
Until then, you can use the development files from the Expansion Pack if you like. |

Partly from the following year - but by then most "damage" has already been done. |

One big question I have, what do people have the evolution slider set to at the start of their careers? With the original game, most people turned this down since Cyanide's young riders were way too strong.

It will not hurt it. Any newly generated young rider will use those (so already made young riders will not change).

I'm searching for the tradtional easier route of Milano - San Remo because the UCI decided a few days ago to change the route again. So in the PCMdaily DB there is the still the more hilly variant of MSR. Can anyone help me? |
