Pro Cycling Manager 2016

Accidentally misclicked and played Pro Cycling Manager 2006 for a whole day. Didn't notice the difference.

So, we are now four days after the release of the game, and I still can't play it, because it crashes when I want to play it. We know full well that Cyanide has a lot of bugs when releasing new games (and I should know it, I have played all the PCM and CM games before!), but this is at a whole new level. How can a game just randomly crash because you try to launch it? I really hope that I can write another evaluation later, after actually playing the game, but will I even get that chance?

Same old terrible commentary, in-race graphics, glitches upon increasing speed of game, etc. What's new is the menu system and the music. neither are for the better. I started two save games and lost them both after the game crashed. If you believe that football manager has a hard time improving and developing their product - you'll be shocked at how bad pro cycling manager do the same thing. This is basically the same game that's been issued for 7 consecutive years, with a few (wrong) names added and attributes updates. I feel scammed, and can't seem to get a refund.

Playing this game was infuriating. On first day I played an hour and had +15 crashes. Sometimes by just clicking a menu button like load. Then when sending the crash report their servers just didn't work. Then next day I played for another hour managing to play the 3 pro cyclist intro races and it was exactly like last year. For real, there is absolutely nothing new about this game. Career mode is exactly the same as PCM 2015. I did not even play a stage because while planning the season it crashed several time and as this game is BS it doesn't save changes until you advance a day or go to the menu, my god, who thought that would be a good idea when you have to cross your fingers every time you press a menu button on this game. Absolute garbage, I've been buying this game since 2007 and I can't stand it anymore, got a refund and will skip this version entirely. Don't recommend at all if you have any PCM that's 2011+

Great, great game. Pros: - Better AI (mountain, sprints, etc). - Better graphics - Better Multiplayer than previous PCMs. - New HUD in race. - Steam Workshop Cons: - Some bugs in sprints - Some crashes This game is improving every year. I like it :D

Since 2012 I have about 1000+ hours of gaming experience each year with Pro Cycling Manager. I play career mode, pro cyclist mode and multiplayer. This is the most exciting cycling game on the market. Despite the fact some of the features are not working yet or need some improvements. Pro's: - Multiplayer allows people to rejoin the game after a crash. This wasn't possible in earlier editions. - Multiplayer: No more teams with Pantani/Armstrong, Contador, Froome, Nibali and Quintana in one team versus 5 copies of that same team, but they use the actual teams. - Multiplayer: You will be rewarded with more ladder points when you have results with weaker teams. - Multiplayer: You can play pro cyclist multiplayer! - Multiplayer: The interface is generally easy to use. - Multiplayer: chat function works during load screen, and having a friends list showing who's online is nice to have. - Pro Cyclists: There are objectives per race based on your team role. - 3D: In earlier editions the mountain and hill stat were based on the type of race. In a mountain race only the mountain stat was used and for flat races only the hill stat. Now it is based on the parcours/route itself, instead of a predetermined number. - Career mode: more simplistic approach when setting objectives (this needs some improvements to work as intended), saves hours of manually make a plan for each rider. - Workshop makes it easier to download community made databases and expansion packs (this needs some improvements to work as intended). Cons: - We have to wait until every feature as promised and as intended will be ready. - In their attempt to make the game easier for the casual gamer, they get rid of the more complex management tasks. Why aren't they making it optional to use the old objectives system?

I don't normally do Reviews. But this one I thought i needed to as they are about to relaese a new version of this game. Firstly, I am a massive cycling fan and I ONLY recommend this for massive cycling fans and ONLY for the Be a Pro mode. Although i do play career mode, there just isnt enough content in it to recommend it. After being a lifelong player of game like Football Manager, this career mode isseriously bland and there is little depth too it. I realise it doesnt have the same budget as a game like FM, but small improvements could be made to make it more realistic, like the BIG stars not moving teams every year, and the teams chaning strip and sponsors EVERY year etc. On that, there is no license, thank ♥♥♥♥ for the guys who make real world names/jerseys/stats etc. Without the workshop content, i would not play this game. CRASHES CRASHES CRASHES.... and not the bike kind... this game crashes more than any game i have ever played before. Even the pop up to report the crash.... crashes. I ♥♥♥♥ you not. These crashes have literally happen on the same race/stage EVERY time you try to play it, it is completely unacceptable for them NOT to have fixed these. In saying that though, this is all we cycling fans have. I have over 200hrs in the game and will probably put in another 200 before i buy the next one. In itself, it is a reat game, and the Be A Pro mode makes you want to keep playing to better your rider so you can take on the big boys and the big races. I will buy the next version of the game when its out in the blind hope that they place more depth into the Be A Pro mode, as the career mode hasnt changed in 4 or 5 years. Heres hoping. If you are a cycling nerd then i recommend. If you are a fan of "manager" type games, then i DO NOT recommend this game as there are simply too many bugs and not enough depth.

This is no fun anymore. During sprint and setting up sprint trains the game crashes while switiching between riders. I feel so sorry buying this game. Hope something will change for the better because I do like the game. But it is frustrating that the game freezes (sometimes the entire computer) in the heat of a finish. I do not recommend the game until the problems are solved.

I Love this game, I really do but I can not recommend a game that crashes. Everything works fine except for when you want to develope your own rider in be a pro. Be a pro is a fantastic idea and i live the concept but when your getting somewhere and your rider is starting to be competative and then the game decides to just stop working and not load that save again its rather annoying. I have made several attempts at be a pro so its defintely not a one off. Having said that the rest of the game works great and i still enoy it immensly. Heres hoping they fix the glitches for the next addition of this series
