Finally, here's the Patch Notes for the modifications this update will bring to the game.

Patch Notes

  • AI improvements with the “too much agressivity by the leaders” (they kept attacking from bottom of the climbs, too-often with too high pacing after an attack, some teams defends too much and with higher pace than they should to cover attacks of riders that was not so dangerous).

  • AI roster improvements : better choices for sprinters and some northern classic riders, especially for races like Paris-Nice and other “1 week” stage races that are not for pure climbers, important riders are less interested by minor continental races. Also important riders from conti pro teams should participate much less to “.2” races.

  • Optimizations on race simulation times, especially mid/end seasons.

  • Optimizations on week and month turns.

  • Fix the visual bug with shirts on Pro Cyclist palmares, where a wrong shirt was highlighted when winning certain races.

  • Fix a crash on 720p resolutions when you open a cyclist’s pop-up.

  • New team equipments : Team DSM, Astana - Premier Tech, B&B Hotels p/b by KTM.

  • Fix a problem with Québec after race podium.

  • Fix a bug on Hall of Fame page where riders did not appears anymore when they were retired

The fixes and changes apply directly without re-starting a new career or season (if you're in a career, for AI roster improvements, most of the things will update on the next month).

As they are no structural modifications, it's possible to rollback to the normal branch (1.0.3.2) and continue your game if for any reason you do not want anymore to be on the "open-beta-test" branch.

Thank you for your continuous support!

Sincerely,
