I've been away from PCM for a while. I've played every PCM since CM4, however. Imagine I install PCM with latest patch and PCMDaily's DB.
I want to do a very long term career, using PCMDaily's DB. So I need some advice:
- Is there a known career stopping bug(s) for long term careers at specific points?
- Do we run out of sponsors after some seasons? In case that happens, any easy available fix?
I won't buy PCM13 for a while, I think. It's never playable from the box. So help me on PCM12
No running out of sponsors with the Daily Db(2013 DB + stat update is best ofc. Link to stats update is at the front page, in the graphical improvement pack news feed) amazing amount of shirts!!!
Also, there was a career stopping bug in 2015, but there's an easy fix:
Delete all your messages once in a while.
Also, there's a small bug that's there at some careers, not being able to continue to the next year. Using a weekly save from the end of December fixes it though.
So nothing will stop you from doing a long career!

Wouldn't really say that PCM12 gameplay-wise is fun enough to keep a career going for a long period of time.
Why? What's wrong with it?
I've been thinking of buying it recently, since the only other one I have is 2009 (which is pretty outdated). 2013 will be rubbish on release, so I assumed it would be better to buy 2012, patch it to 1.4 and then use the PCM Daily 2013 DB.
There's quite some gameplay problems/bugs (riders barely drop in the mountains, peloton suddenly stops chasing out of nowhere with 5 kms to go, I don't really like the sprints [too much gain by sprinting in the slipstream and accelerating with only 0.5 kms to go]...) + PCM13 is looking great both in gameplay + new career features + graphics.
