Pro Cycling Manager 26

Like FIFA Nothing really changed, right now im riding tour de france but even if I'm 2 in GC and the best rider etc. I'm a helper??? it's so dumb, if just one from the team ( I asked for 3 helpriders but got 0) was to help so the team was having 2 captains, then okay... but no. 2025 is better don't waste the money

I would not reccomend this game to anyyone who has PCM 2025 as the game barely changed, however if you have never played any PCM before, i reccomend giving it a shot.

TLDNR: Not worth upgrading from v2025 for this price. New feature have not much impact on the experience itself. Game is unstable and keep crashing. I bought so game because I wanted the updated riders list and because the new features looked interesting. Handling the hierarchy and objectives in a new way seemed a good thing. However, it does not bringing enough to justify paying over 30 euro for this version. In the end they do not have that much of an impact on the game compared to the 2025 version. Additionally thoqe feature are not even working well which is not helping. Race planification and training program for example are not automatically updated for all the impacted riders when validating a change in their objectives despite checking the option to do so. Also, supposedly fixed AI bug are still there like, groups of 20 riders taking 20min lead with not one taking charge in the peloton. Finally what is making me the less happy is how unstable this 2026 version is. When playing for long period the game will get slow with long loading time etc. Some other time, it will just randomly crash. I saw a patch for a memory leak fix but I guess they have more than one. I've been pl…

Sorry, but this is just not it. The opponent AI is seriously outdated, there are weird glitches, and without the WorldDB mod this game would be almost unplayable. As it is, this might be my last ever PCM, unless something changes drastically for PCM27

After all these years it looks like the AI has gotten worse instead of better: * In my first race the sprinters all just waited passively for me to start sprinting, even though I was only a one-* favorite, leading me to just win the stage. It wasn't a mass sprint but riders shouldn't be that stupid. * The second sprint I let the AI take over, but the top sprinter just decided to drop down the peloton with their domistique with 3 km to go, despite being unhindered. Why? * The third race saw me take bonification seconds unchallenged, just winning the tour. * Upon simulation it seems choosing the options to gain mountain/sprint points in the intermediaries seems to work backwards as they take points when I turn it off, and don't when I turn it on. I wouldn't be surprised that i, the way they screwed up the simulation leadout output for years (causing you to get a malus instead of a bonus). * Results of the 'detailed simulations' get laughable results of sprinters winning big hilly stages that - upon playing - you can impossibly achieve. What a joke. Of course there's still the same graphical clipping bugs, but I guess that's part of the charm now. I haven't gotten the chance to play…

only thing that bugs me is the sponsor bug I am losing sponsors like every 10 seasons, sometimes a sponsor offer message appears, more than usually not
