Just played one online match, a mountain stage with my best riders being Geschke and Majka. One team has Hesjedal, Leipheimer, Nibali, Cobo... In other words, this is no fun unless you are a spoiled kid with way too much money.

Aren't they going to put you with others who have equal quality riders when there are more people playing it though? |

Yes 
If you want better team, faster. You pay
Basically a game for spoilt children, I can see people doing in FIFA where there are tournaments for big money in UT, but it's never going happen with PCM.
Look at the costs 
PACK JUNIOR - 50 CYANS
€4.99
PACK ELITE - 110 CYANS
Buy this pack and GET 9% OFF!
€9.99
PACK PRO - 175 CYANS
Buy this pack and GET 14.2% OFF!
€14.99

So you see the reason why they didn´t include the classic multiplayer mode.

I think Rabobank is underrated (Boom en Gesink and also Kittel is underrated of Team Argos) |

It's a tradition? 
Armada reminds me of Pokemon cards. |

Simulation has always been shitty in PCM but for some reason a guy with 53 hill can beat Gilbert (82 hill). It makes me sad |

Sure, theres complaints every year - but they dont usually seem to be this unaminous.

I think in part it's due to Cyanide adding something new simply to cash in, rather than for improving the game. |

Days, and actually the first one is already out
PATCH NOTES 1.1.0.1:
[3D RACE & AI / GAMEPLAY]
- Fix: slow down refresh of the display of the time-gap between two riders (the gap displayed at the request of the player plus gaps between groups). It was updating too often.
- Fix: removed a rare case of a crash during a sprint.
- Fix: eliminate the overlap between spectators and vehicles, barriers and other roadside objects by preventing vehicles from driving on the sides of the road.
- Fix: prevent one case of disruption of sprint train; some AI riders, charged with leading-out their sprinter in the final sprint, halted their effort far too early.
- Fix: moving through the peloton via the mouse wheel was too slow
- Adjustment: decreased risk of overlap between vehicles and riders.
- Adjustment: decreased the number of AI riders likely to adopt the Effort Cursor action on a cobblestone surface in order to harden the race. Only very good riders can now do so.
[CAREER]
- Major fix: Generation of team schedules from season 2
- Major fix: solved the problem of incomplete AI teams at world championships
- Fix: Eliminated possible crash when clicking on a news item for a pre-season training camp.
- Fix: removed the possibility of riders taking part in races when they are in training.
- Fix: When booking training camps, some riders were not greyed-out in the interface even if they were engaged in a race.
- Fix: Eliminated possible crash when a schedule is empty.
- Fix: fixed the problem of wrong riders being selected for the rider of the year award (Cyanide Trophy)
- Fix: In very advanced careers, sponsors return after a period of withdrawal.
- Enhancement: Sponsors may request category ".2" races in their objectives
- Addition: The interface now displays riders with an "at training camp" status.
[INTERFACE]
- Fix: equipment selected for track mode was not taken into account
- Fix: the interface for "pre-race" orders in detailed simulation mode was not available
- Fix: Alignments on the stage information page.
- Fixed: Results page in track modes
- Change: Change of the background image in Track mode.
- Change: Update background images during race loading + integration of the grand tours logos.
[MULTIPLAYER]
- Added: Opening of the Armada multiplayer mode
[graphic design]
- Improved: Better rendering of the faces of generic riders.
[STAGES]
- Major fix: The following races caused a crash in 3D and detailed simulation modes: USA championships., USA championships time-trial, Ronde van West-Vlaanderen, Tour Franco-Belge.
- Fix: fixed a road problem on stage 4 of the GP Méditerranéen.
[LOCALIZATIONS]
- Added: Updated some missing strings (Spanish, Italian, Dutch, German, Polish, Hungarian)
[DATABASE]
- Adjustment: numerous adjustments to attributes.
- Modified: BigMat - Auber93 is now called "Auber93" (+ update logos / mini jersey).
- Fix: some rider images were not displayed correctly.
- Fix: update to sponsor territories, solving some of the problems associated with incoherent objectives.
- Adjustment: updated race dates for Supergiro and Tour de France.
[MISCELLANEOUS]
- Fix: possible crash when launching a detailed simulation of a time-trial
- Fix: graphic auto configuration message on first launch.
- Fix: AltGr + V creating a Control-V for the Hungarian version (to allow use of @ sign)
- Update: GPU database for game auto configuration.

That are a lot of things fixed
How can you release a game that way, hasn't it been tested? |
