Don't know if this has already been posted but here are some graphical updates for PCM14. There are new landscapes especially made for the first stages of the Tour, which are in the United Kingdom

1:1, 1:5 & 1:10 you mean?
That's the scale of the game. At this moment, it's 1:10, which means that a race in PCM only takes 10% of a real race, but that also means unreal gaps(riders seeing each other with 50 secs differences). Which is fine for me.
But some other people prefer it 1:5, which would be 20%.
1:1 is real length. Which would be awful for me, spending multiple hours on a race.

Thanks for explanation
i would prefer 1:5. it doesnt make any sense in a hilly stage you sprint a 3km to go.
A better option would give each one of us a choice  |

The entire game revolves around that, so it would be hard for them to program two different ways. At this point it would be hard to change the whole scale of the game
But the console game is 1:5 iirc. Use to be 1:2.

Indeed, but when the console was 1:2 you could only play certain sections of the stages and there were only ~25 stages...

Indeed, Cyanide could just program 10 (or more) different scales and create stages for them all, that wouldn't be a trouble at all

Maybe "Scenarios" could be an idea.. You take control over 1 rider, 1:1 scale and rides the last km of an important race. A scenario could be Purito VS Gilbert at Mur the Huy, with 30sec to chasing group with other favourites.(This is just an example, I'm not watching cycling as much as many here)

Come to think of it, two stages on one day like yesterday in Sarthe and last week in De Panne. You'd have to save energy in the first stage if you want to win the TT/GC in the second stage. |

I recognise the places they're meant to be, I think. One of them might even be 5 minutes walk from me.
Any more news on the console version yet? |

Same, that's very cool, drove past one of these places yesterday I think.
Great work Cyanide  |

Make it easier to pull back breakaways (fix stamina stat).
That was better in PCM12 than in -13

About the scale stuff... does anyone really care about the first two thirds of a stage 'cuz I think they could be with a 1:10 scale and the rest to be in 1:1(if the stage is over 150km) and using the x2, x4 and x8 speed up the player could skip the annoying parts on the 1:1 scale.  |

There was a cycling game which had 1:1 scale. You could speed up the game so the stage duration was not a problem. I think the fastest was x256 or so. If the speed was 16x or higher, then the game switched to a mode similar to the detailed simulation of PCM11 (or was it PCM12). I really loved that part of the game.
BTW: You can download and play that game for free and the community is still releasing updates. I think it is called Eurotour cycling or so.

Well, detailed simulation really gave crappy results.

Yes, but instead of deleting it, they should have fixed it. |
