Together with the teams, 88 more riders have been added to the DB, meaning that the total number on that is now up to 3262. This will the one of the most complete PCM.Daily' s DB in our history !
New teams, new races
More teams usually require more races - and that certainly is the case here. Compared to the first release, 21* new races have been added, giving you realistic lineups and gameplay experience - the full list can be seen here.
While still on races, more than 25 races will receive their correct stages/real profiles in the DB. For those who like single race mode, a big update to the teams lineup has been made, and more than 100 races now have correct lineups based on the 2012 startlist! The lovers of long careers have also got a lot to be excited about: more than the triple! of variants compared to the first release will be included, adding up to more than 50* variants, of which 20 are GT routes and 10 are World Championship routes - and that's without counting variants for the National Championships in some countries.
* numbers might be subject to change.. but only upwards ;)
Graphics
When it comes to graphics, there are also big things to be looking forward to. A new sponsorkit, mostly based on the ones released by Jacky Durand and LiquigasManager - and for that here's a big thank you to them - has been added, replacing the Cyanide banners with real logos. Together with it, the cars and motorbikes have also been replaced, as well as new velodromes, including the London 2012 one. Thanks to the "graphical maniac" Zecha, all the races in the DB have got brand new updated logos, and still on races, there are a lot of new race leader shirts.
Other features
And finally, the "miscellaneous": more scouting zones; more sound comments, both for races and for riders; updated young rider progressions; and of course, everything you know from the usual releases: updated stats, tons of rider pictures, lots of equipment, and more! The countdown to the PCM.Daily DB is closer and closer, so stay tuned ;) And if everything goes right, we'll enjoy the DB this weekend already ;) |
