Hi there, new to the PCM games and to the forum and I need help!!
I play full custom teams in career mode, and I cannot seem to get an invite to the Giro d'Italia no matter what I do. I've tried it with four different teams (four different game saves) and all were denied. I also would get denied to at least one of the races that my sponsors oblige me to do, thus giving me no chance to satisfy them. Can anyone tell me how I can increase my chances of being invited to important races?
Also, how do I train for attributes for which there is no training camp? How do I increase STA, SPR, RES, REC, DH, FL and all that?
1. The two main things that matter are: your ranking and your nationality. If you've an Italian team and are placed in the top, you will most likely get a wildcard.
2. Training camps don't "train" stats. You get a temporary boost (like doping), and that's it. To get permanent boosts, the only possibility is to train your riders using one or more trainers.
When doing so, you can select several different training programs, e.g. Stage Racer, Sprinter, etc.
The Team ranking has never been a problem. I win most of the races I enter and are always ranked 1st on the Continental Pro Tour. I also top the Superprestige points and races won. That's why I can't understand how I keep getting denied to big races.
Now as for training, I know how to assign trainers and specify the type of training I want, but I have never seen the actual stat numbers increase. Is there something more that I'm suppose to do?
When you start a new career, you can select the speed of increase. Set it to 1. Then get the best trainers and wait. There is a graphical display of the evolution for every rider, check it after half a year.
nationality, remember, nationality, a spanish race will give priority to spanish team, giro will give wild card to italian team, vuelta to spanish team, and tdf to the best team.
