Did you already played the game?
If yes, what is your first opinion about the new adjustments?
Great screens though! Finally some information

They were uploaded in the Open Bar in the official forum of Cyanide.
I didn't play the game. I'll have to wait as any other common human being until next Thursday!!! |

Meh , only the players can do route reconnaissance , it'll be cheating just as much as training camp.  |

Yeah, reconnaissance is another 'only human player' thing. How could AI could do reconnaissance though and how it would help them ? 
So I defo opt out of this option, as again it will feel a bit like cheating.

How does it help the human player? Will the riders get extra form on that specific stage?

Excellent screens rico!!! The 3D mode looks way more appealing, and i like that they actually put what catagory a mountain is on the stage profile and not just a M. But the mailbox doesn't look that good though. Can't wait to download this game!!!

Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime. Teach a man to cycle and he will realize fishing is stupid and boring.

No, but if you think about it. Especially on hilly stages, you will know the narrow roads, when the gradient rises and where splits can happen etc.
For me, I played LBL twice as Sky with Uran in classic mode. Once I got 7th, but made stupid mistakes of falling behind on section split happened. Played it 2nd time and I knew that there was likely to be a split there and I moved Uran to front then and the split happend with me in it. Got 2nd then. Just an example of something similar a bit.
Now, every race is different but reconnaissance will help you know the route and the aspects that will be key. AI can't do that and so I feel it's like cheating. Hope you get me

Well, actually the screen says exactly that: "...allows you to optimize the form of the day on these stages."

Now if that's true, than that's even more of 'cheating' than I thought it would be. If AI can't get that bonus and Humans can.

looks great, but i wonder if these are the final rider stats. albisini 66 in mountains? they can't be serious about that.
and kittel with only 79 in sprint, just as good as rojas and 2 points worser than petacchi -.- |

There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Thanks for these screens! Looking promising.
I think I'll do the rout recon for some stages, but I don't think I'll use it a lot. Doesn't feel like cheating as much as training camps.
New layout is great, especially in-game!

I like the new in-game interface a lot. Especially the new profile. 
Not a fan of the inbox and the other manager parts though. Don't think it looks good stretched out all across the screen.

Can Saxo Bank still use Contador? He is in the peloton as you can see in the picture 3D (2). That makes no sense imo. |

It'll take some time getting used to, but I think it's an improvement! |
