Hi
As mentioned ages ago, PCMBenelux.com have been working on an interview with Clément Pinget about PCM08. Although it's been very silent lately it has now finally been published. It's currently only in Dutch, but we're working on a translation as fast as possible :)
You can read it in Dutch on PCMBenelux' website. For now, you can use Google's website translation system. It doesn't translate it "optimally", but it does give you an impression of what to expect. Read it in "look-a-like" English here. (Look below)
Update, 18:28 (GMT): Mrlol has been doing a really good job, and thanks to him, we can now present the full English translation of the interview by PCMBenelux. Go read it in English right here.
Update, 14:49 (GMT): After a quick read-through, here's what seems to be the most important "points": - PCM had some good sale figures in pretty much all countries except for Germany which were influenced by all the doping scandales - There will not be any major improvement to the media part of the game - Riders will now also have nationality as a factor when deciding to move to a new team - It will be possible to set your own team at the World Championships. However, some riders may refuse to participate. - All licenses for Pro Tour-teams (also Astana) - No major improvement to the calendar - No graphical differences between riders (such as height, weight, etc.) - There have been some rumours about being able to unlock legends in the next PCM, but Pinget has denied this rumour. - No official database editor, unless an "external" programmer is interested in doing the job for Cyanide. - There will be a lot more IsolatedBuildings for the stage editor. Also, they have been working a lot on improving the stability of the editor. - More rider animations - There'll be sixteen track riders in the database with three stats: stamina, acceleration and resistance - No major changes to the multiplayer mode. |
