Only looked at manager apart and plaued one stage so far and :
- The music is annoying ( already on mute )
- The stats are very hard to see, the light green doesn't work really.
- The sprints are far unpredicatble, which I love. The trains harder to control and set up, also very easily borken up on 90 degress turn

I know this might seem a bit like a conspiracy but does anyone else get the feeling that maybe focus/cyanide purposefully screwed up deliveries to amazon to try to get people to swap to paying the extra money for the download game? still waiting for amazon to dispatch mine, estimated delivery date is the 1st july...ffs.... |

Seems unlikely when Game have it in stock and are selling for the same price. Amazon's games partner, Indigo Starfish, probably underestimated the popularity of the game at £15 and are now struggling to fulfil their pre-order list. |

In the career mode of the game the sponsors often say that they aren't happy with the number of riders coming from a country X that they regard as important. When you create a custom team, it was possible to assign percentages to the amount of riders that you want from a certain country. My question is that is it not possible to see this number in the game itself if I take some team under my management? Seems a bit stupid that there is no "fact sheet" of each sponsor and what countries they see as important and what their expectations are. Of course one can see the countries from what it says in the sponsor tab but it would be a lot easier if there would be information about the expectations the sponsors have |

How do you get "B" sponsors? I am a small team with veranda and am "scouting" for some sponsors but don't get any offers so far. I am already in the half of february. |

That's normal, the sponsor search is for 2012 not like the old sponsor search you had in previous PCM.
They will come with offers around the tour |

Damn you all and your positive comments , Now I've bought the game ! What a shame
I am downloading it now and looking at some screenshots , and I saw that every rider have the same angry face , can we change them ? Can we make realistic faces ? that'd be a serious advance for the graphics

Don't worry You should get the game monday or tuesday. Amazon never updates the deliver estimates, you should ignore them |

i pre-ordered, and pre-installed.
got my email with activation key and installed and am playing fine.
i created a profile and when i went to play online it said i hadn't activiated online yet, however i havn't recieved an email with a password from when i created the account.
any ideas?
yes i did this, when you create a profile it asks for your email adress, a profile name, and the key.
i put the key in and it says i will be emailed a password, which never happens. |

grrr. Not really relevant to the most recent discussion on this thread, but probably not worth it's own either. I'm starting to find myself getting blocked by my own riders in sprint trains now. I had a guy pulling the peloton to catch the breakaway and a lead-out man and sprinter about 15 riders back with 5km to go. The pulling guy catches the breakaway and I order him to cease pulling as his job was done. So he pulls off and blocks my lead-out man and sprinter as they are moving up into position and they cannot find a way around him until about 2km to go and are about 50 riders deep. I do manage to make it back up to about 15th position when I start my sprint and I find that the lead-out guy is sprinting around human traffic cones on bikes as all the sprint trains had fallen apart and were now going about 30km/hr. I think the leadout man finished 4th and the sprinter finished around 10th because he got blocked by more of these train remnants. It's a little annoying that the AI does not make them get out of the way and instead form this semi-wall in the middle of the road making it very difficult for anyone to get past. I guess this is the advantage of being in the front when the sprint starts, but it would be nice if the AI had a little sprint etiquette and could kindly move off to the side of the road. |
