Today I added some suggestions I have in my notepad and I uploaded to the server.
Most are minor updates, some internals to quit messages, supporters notifications, processes with less loading time ...
Now in team page you can see cyclists in training camp , free market now give 100 results, status order is changed.
2 new Road World Championship races have been added , Leeds-Harrogate a hills-sprint race and Ritchmond a fully cobbles plain race. Hamilton won't be more in WC calendar due two same races are in WC locations as Salzburg and Lisboa.
And I started in chat a discussion due I give some internal changes to change 2 important things in the game.
As always, these changes have players that agree and others than disagree and it's not easy for me, I will study these changes more time, reading all you.
1st change- talent will change at end of every season +1 or -1 .
2nd change Age where cyclists start to loss skills will be random 30 to 34 (or 31-34 or 29-35...) not fixed . Some cyclists can mantain his level some years .
Nice changes you made, Oska, including more variation in the WC road race.
About the 2 changes ( I made them
bold ) which are in discussion ;
I wonder what the arguments are that these are good changes for CFF ?
I have a vague idea why, but since this is discussed already and being discussed here, it is nice to know what the arguments are.
In my opinion ( for now ) ;
about the
1st change = What does this mean exactly ?
As I read it know, a 19yo has the first season talent rating 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 ;
and at their 20yo birthday they will have talent rating 1 or talent rating -1 for the rest of their career ?
So this could be +3% trainingspeed or -3% trainingspeed (
if talent rating 1 is 3% but I forgot what percentage talent rating 1 gets ).
Besides that I don't know exactly what this 1st change implies ;
I see one problem that is already mentioned by Rico ( and Sjiz ).
For example I have 3 very young training projects ( 1x 20yo and 2x 21yo, including a free cyclist that I cannot sell ),
and they look to me as promising talents right now, but when this change already happens after this season ;
they're much less promising because they cannot profit of the talent rating bonus, and all generations above them had that advantage.
I have just 3 young talents, but for teams that train a full team of very young talents for some months already ;
no doubt they have invested in their talents based on a high talent rating, but that base is gone with this change,
plus the fact that their talents then will have a big disadvantage compared to all generations above them.
So, I can imagine this change will be very dissapointing to teams full of young talents.
Maybe a good idea if this change will happen ;
that it will not happen after this season already, but after 3 seasons to avoid this big dissapointment.
About this 1st change ; I wonder what the arguments are ?
Perhaps also good to mention = I'm not complaining ; I like changes that are beneficial to the CFF game.
Even no problem if this creates a bad situation to my 3 young training projects, and also it would mean to me a waste of a free cyclist.
My situation is nothing compared to teams full of very young talents ; I assume they will not like this change at all, if it is applied soon.
about the
2nd change = No problem for me to adapt to this situation. I like variaty in the game, so probably I will like this change.
Also about the 2nd change ; I wonder what the arguments are ?
