I mean he should have low descending. Haven't checked the db yet but he did crash in that race he rode away together with Howson. The one he get second in after Ewan
He went ballistic to drop everyone on the very same descent before and managed to get back into the leaders group afterwards.
Yeah, he had a nasty crash, but he was in the same group at the bottom as he was at the top despite that!
Plus he attacked and joined leaders several times in descents.

Just downloading game,and planning to try Armada for first time,somehow,i never used it in PCM12. So , can anyone explain how it works, i mean, can you use different databases,stage races, do you pick yourself a race and you're waiting for guys to join or it is by random? Also, how about players,how much players can parcipate, if there isn't enough players , AI plays? but on what level?
Track is a bit simplier.
I would also like to get some introduction about point system, points in armada (tokens or however it is called). Just downloading game throught steam, 60% passed already.
Thanks for help,might sound stupid and noobish,but ye.

Manx, if you want to rage on another (imo major) fault of the game: no more two sponsors allowed for teams. If you go to the sponsors tab with Omega Pharma - Quickstep, you'll only see "Omega Pharma". Or with Lotto, you'll see "Lotto Belisol" (as one sponsor only). So much less variability, not possible for main sponsor to quit and 2nd sponsor take over, or different region interests by sponsor in the same team, etc etc

What I don't really ever seem to understad lluuiiggii about things like that, is why purposely take something out of the game?

I'm still trying to get the fitness planner to do what i want... could be here for another 2-3hours...
And really? if that is the case, and i'll have a look soon, holy mother of god! That would be verging on game breakingly bad for me, and just a terrible step backwards from PCM12, again...

Sponsor negotiation was redone from scratch so either they didn't have time to implement negotiations with two sponsors at once or weren't able to get it working well enough to be released.
Expect if back in 2014....if they don't suddenly forget about it.

Just went and looked at Bardini-CSF, Rapha Condor-Sharp (not JLT?) and Garmin-Sharp again... I cannot believe that!!!!
Every step forward they take is countered by a bigger step backwards...

I apologize if this has been asked already(btw is it possible to search in a specific thread?)
There is a new button in the "right-click" menu at the far right. Looks like a magnifiying glass with a + in. I cant see it mentioned in the manual, but in the bottom of the "Keyboard shortcuts" screren there is something called "Request an analysis of the rider's behavior" which I guess could be the new feature.
However it it always greyed out and not possible to click. Does anyone know how to use it and what it does?

I just received the e-mail from the German version. They said I would get it at 00.01 20-6-2013, but they sent it to me on 00.01 21-6-2013. Might be just a silly mistake? |

You have been able to peek into riders's form since at least PCM11.

It's only available when there's a reason for the rider to be doing something differently (e.g. riders in breakaways not relaying because their team is working in the peloton).

I preordered it and that mail said 20-6-2013 as well, but I just got it now so it must have been a mistake, yes ... anyway, you should have it now, too.

I remember a similiar feature from PCM11, but it wasn't possible in PCM12
And thank you lluuiiggii, that makes sense I guess! |

Soo, I decided to share the .cdb I'm going to play with.
It's heavily edited.
I like the work. Most of it is good and not many instances where a rider is too good.
The only one that stood out to me so far was Quintana who for some reason went from 78<80 in Mountain. Personally I dont think he's 1 stat below Contador and 2 below Froome, I also think Valverde is still the stronger on the long climbs. In fact from his results he looks like he's a great puncheur (but still a good climber) and a better TT rider than he gets credit for. Pais Vasco is mainly a hilly tour as far as Im aware, and remember he only beat Porte who isn't exactly a dominant climber, but still a very good climber (until July when Sky become the best 9 climbers in the world ) Personally I would have left him at 78 or at most given him 79, until he (hopefully) proves otherwise in July
But yeah, thanks for this. I think you said minimal feedback was alright.

Thanks Valv. Hope it makes your game-experience better
I see Quintana as a great climber, but not so great stage-racer, Valverde is the better stage-racer, but not better climber IMO. I think I gave Quintana a bit less energy stats as well, so he won't win GTs. I could've left him on 79 though, yet I think he's better on a pure climb than some other 79's.
Well, at least thanks for the feedback
@Others Wow, that download speed sucks. Yay for hard-cover
