100% agree

What is totally puzzling to me is that how on earth can it be the case that it is AI vs you? I have experienced the same thing in previous versions as well but if I think about it from the perspective of building an AI for the game, it would seem intuitive to treat all the opponents (AI or human guided) similarly, not to mention that it would seem simpler to implement as now they apparently have a different AI that relates to human riders and another for AI riders.. Doesn't make sense at all |

Another frustrating thing in the game is the fact that you get often get caught in front of the peleton when the leaders are caught. if you sit on the wrong side of the peleton you will be "pulled" back with the riders that just got caught.. Really frustrating when your in a perfect position just before a climb and you get pulled back and have to start the climb a long way from other favorites.. |

+1 So many times it happend to me as well. Also the problem Alakagom and BouBBox said is most annoying as well. Ridiclous. PCM 10 was better for breakaways it looks. hope they fix it.

And I also miss a possibility to comfirm transfers.. I like to make offers to a lot of riders around the same time, so i would prefer to comfirm these transfers after i gave the offer. |

My order is on dispatching soon, and says on a corner, we are preparing your items for dispatching, you cannot cancel your order, but it´s been like this the whole day. I´m getting pissed with Amazon, they have the game in Stock, and i ordered the game 11 days ago, for god´s sake.
Anyway, what´s your verdict of the game, a lot better than last year´s?
EDIT: Game dispatched, getting it on 1st July, the day the game is also released here.

I have experienced this too, and it's really annoying.
In TdF, Chavanel attacked half-way in all the first 13 stages until he got a win and seized the jersey. Some others also attacked in almost every stage, seems like 80+ fighter = attack in every stage. This is unplayable over time.
Extreme level is just useless. It's 20 teams against yours, ridiculous! |

Did you even play extreme  your rider can't go into breaks, it is impossible to attack, becasue every time peleton will catch you. That's just unrealsitic. Mountains and spritns are ok. TT's are hard to do but I can see sense of hardness in them. But if you cant go into break the the diffilculty level is messed up simple as that, and have to be fixed. |

Maybe it has something to do with how far down you are on time.
If hard is to easy and extreme is too hard, go into the editor and lower the difficult of Extreme a little bit so that its still harder than Hard but easier than the previous Extreme level.

Funnily, it doesnt' at all. Read Alakagom's example and you will see. Other people on forums also complain about this.

Imo difficulty levels in a management game is a stupid idea to begin with, but if they want to have difficulty levels, it should just be that on harder difficulties the AI riders get a boost to their stats. I don't know who on earth can come up with an idea that let's change the AI to be totally unrealistic on harder difficulties.. |

I'm liking the game so far. A few things I'm having to adjust to/relearn as I didn't play pcm10 alot.
But earlier I did a sprint. My rider was "following" another rider, but yet riding off the front. It was fustrating as I thought the stage was in the bag.

Just about to order it, anyone in the UK order from the following link?
https://www.game.c...?s=cycling
Just a bit concerned if i order that anything might arrive as you would think a British company would have a picture of the British cover listed with the product |

The game was officially released in Scandinavia yesterday, so that's not all that surprising |

I have a bug report.
Whenever you win a race the next day there is this interview, which will always give your riders a morale boost. The problem is that you can answer, get the boost and leave the career. Then when you join the career again the interview is repeated but it still saved the positive effect from the last interview.
This means that you can get a riders morale from very poor to very good if you keep answering, leaving and joining again. |

Thats always happened, plus the "morale boost" is barely anything at all.
