Sounds good guys  And when you've studied web development for a while, we could use another guy, helping me with the web code! Goodluck with the studies! |

Wow, I can't believe it took so long for me to find this thread. This all really sounds awesome! I wish I could participate in brainstorming several months ago, now I think coming up with a bunch of random ideas from me makes no sense, because you certainly started developing some other ideas. I have a lot of ideas in my head in case you need them, though!
I look forward to this game, I would love to play a more realistic cycling manager than PCM, which I've got fed up with recently.
Good luck!

Hello!
Thanks for making it real! I'm really fed up of PCM and all of this buggy game!
I know I'm really late to the party but here are my thoughts on the game and suggestions. Please don't do like PCM did: launch a thread each year to have suggestions that we forgot. You should gathered all suggestions and see what you can make from it
I'd really like to help for stages and hope your stage editor will be great At least like PCM did! One feature I hope you could implement is what they did this year with the export/import of a road into another zcts that help a lot to make a lot of stage
As a PCM gamer from Cycling Manager 1 I will follow your work for sure
For suggestions:
- See above for the feature in stage editor
- Roundabout on both side that can increase the pack when it rides fast, maybe more things in the city: don't know the name but sometimes you have the road splitting in the middle and there are more falls
- For the fall: maybe an option to increase or decrease it and sometimes in CLM too  or even flat
- For the difficulty of the game: hope you won't be like PCM like a coef on the notation like the other rider are 1.03 better than you but more like the other teams will ride less with you, attack more, will try to close the gap more easily, maybe it could be like a FIFA or NHL like a 1-100 bar for some of this options. You can also have the difficulty to go in a breakaway for AI and another for your team. Imagine at 100 you have 70kms when its really hard to make a breakaway and at 20 the peloton let the first or 2nd breakaway going. As this player can have his own playability
- I'd really like to see some random stats for each year for example -5/+5 on every stats for some riders. For example an average rider could be in a top 10 of TDF one year but will become an average rider the other year, it can be the same things on some races. I'm fed up of having stats not really moving and having Contador or Froome winning every TDF without difficulties EDIT; I've just seen in a post so i'm pretty exciting about it!
- I come back from falling down: maybe there could be different falls: for example a rider falls hard and loose 3min or another rider just fall but is good and loose 30 sec, same when you got flat: if you engage good mecanician you don't loose a lot of time (10 sec) while having bad staff and you will start 30 sec later etc
- in the 3D mode, some people talk about it but having a cursor that is automatic most of the time and manual when you need it to go on the left or right of the road, it will help a lot on the collision of riders
- The capacity of hiding stats of riders and only see them when you ride with them, the more you ride, the more you can see how good they are or maybe like FIFA, hiring staff to make it! BUT, I know some people like it other not so it could be an option!
- For historical Db, the possibility of choosing the number max of riders in PT team, conti etc because for example in 95 you had max 20-22 riders I think: Read this in post: thanks it's a great idea of thinking about historical Db
- I don't know how to say it in english but it would be cool if there was a stat for the team like if some riders ride together on the same race, they will fight more for each other, but they can hate the other like Demare-Bouhanni (at least they don't hate each other but too much leader can cause problems) In the meantime, the manager should have a feeling with the riders if for example you change your team, if one rider think you are a great manager he wants to follow you
- For the translation part I've seen that you want only in english, but I hope once the game will be release you will do it in other languages, I assume I could help on it for french if needed
-Potential evolving Like in FIFA the more you scout him the more you know about him for ex mo between 75-82
- For the doping part i totally disagree, you won't have any license ever if one day PCM disappear and you are far better from Cyanide, in the meantime you said riders are doped which myself I don't think they are, or really a few of them, and it's enhance the fact that riders = doping and from a "little" rider point of view, I hate this things
- For the fitness part: some random between rider is really good! And having better fitness while you don't train/race is great too
- evolution of weather and wind: I don't know how to do it but for the wind sometimes it goes higher in certain parts: for example you are in the forest then you are on culture the wind should go higher, or on a bridge for example etc.
- Placement of the rider there should be a stat for it i think: Rodriguez is always at the back like Voeckler while Kittel will always be in the front
- Train-sprint Seeing 2-3 trains, I just played PCM 14 and every sprinters are wheel to wheel Cavendish in Kittel wheels and Sagan behind  some riders needs train, other not, would be a great carac
- Commentators don't know if it will be in the game, but feel free to contact me as I have a lot of ideas on it
I like the idea of having a lot of things optionnal! It's a good things that you work with the community they are the core of the game and if only every franchise (I didn't spoke about EA why? :lol listen to their community we could have far more better games

Just a question for the Isolated Object, do you think you will have the same format as PCM or not? Cause a year with another guy we create some objects

@andersPCM: things have been quiet i know, but thats intentional we dont have any news ready so we prefer to work and develop this little baby in the shadows. Meanwhile people have been busy watching Tour de France and play PCM14, sure most cycling fans have been pretty entertained.
Project is growing and evolving and once we are ready we will share our vision for the future of cycling games untill website is live i would not expect much news except for me answering questions.
@alex-sonic, aleris: never too late to show support, thanks for the kind words and feedback!

@T-Photon:
have you ever thought of trying something like a "kickstarter" campaign? this community has 100000(!) members...if everyone here would send you 1(!) dollar, you would have 100000(yes i like brackets) dollars. and even if just 500(!) guys would give you something, it would be a little bonus(!) at the beginning...
and even if the whole project would fail(lets not hope so)...1 dollar wouldn't be the biggest loss for a single person...

We will try to finance the project that way but people have to be involved and trust the project before being asked to finance the development costs. Too many bad cases where fake developers trick people into paying up for hoax games.
Untill people know and most importantly have seen what i am creating i would never ask anyone to back me
@NTTHRASH: I will get back to you when i am home from Australia with all limbs intact and yes i am alive. |

When there is something that the public will want to see.

Yeah the focus right now is to get the website launched so we can build a community of people wanting to be part of this
Support has been overwhelming and positive so far so i am sure we can build a great community behind the project. This can later bring the project to life creatively and financially

Great idea! If you need any help, just ask. I'm a developer and could help you.
Cyanide needs rivals to give us a better product, so I totally support your project. |
