Sponsor System
sobrano
In the last editions I alwyas started my carrers with a fair custom team.

During the first year the game is good and not so easy for financial problems.
But during the first year with my fair unknown custom team and without great results in the races, it was enough to use a very good scout to find a super world sponsor and sign a very good contract.

From the second year the game was very very easy becaue my low level custom team is rich with a good sponsor and I was able to take any expansive raider.

My question is:
What change in this edition? i always considered this easy sponsor system as a bug and I hope that in this new edition the level of the sponsor that can provide a contract depend by the results, so you are forced to do good result to improve the level of the sponsor step by step, year by year...

Sobrano, I guess you didn't play PCM 2013? Since last year the new sponsor issue was improved, in my opinion at least. Still not what you would expect but better then in 2012. Since 2013 you can increase your budget (off course) but not times 5 as in 2012. You also don't need to hire a sponsor scout but along the way you get possible new sponsor signings.

All in all I don't know yet how this will be in 2014.

the sponsor budget in the next year depends on results or what in PCM2013?
someone have infos about pcm2014?

In PCM2013 it worked like in PCM10 (or was it PCM11). The sponsor budget changed based on the sponsor happiness. I think they did not change it for PCM2014.

But they added equipment sponsors in PCM2014, which also seem to pay money.

If the sponsoring contract runs out, you will be contacted by other sponsors, so no need to send a scout.

In PCM13 they removed the prize money of the races. Prize money is back in PCM2014 but you define it in the options (a factor).

Furthermore they removed the budget cap in PCM2014.

hello,
some infos about this topic?

As I know of, there is salary budget limit by Team Director and the limit depends on the sponsor's monthly investment.

Am I wrong?
