Pro Cycling Manager: Tour de France 2011 PC

Experience an exceptional season at the head of one of the official teams in Pro Cycling Manager 2011. This game puts you at the heart of the greatest cycling challenges such as the Tour de France or La Vuelta. Intervene during races by guiding your leader and his teammates in the middle of intense and suspenseful stages. In addition to its impressive simulation component, Pro Cycling Manager lets you manage your team's organization and finances for a single race or a complete season.

From its new HD cyclist's models to its superb, rich and diverse race settings, Pro Cycling Manager offers a more realistic and beautiful game experience than ever! The game's management component has also been carefully designed. The user interface has been improved and is now more comfortable to handle, yet offers better interaction with the team and the sponsors. Sponsorship management is also richer this time around. The new AI demonstrates more accurate reactions and leads to an even more advanced simulation: pack behavior, breakaways, sprints…never has the race ever been so real! To learn all about the new features of the exceptional 2011 edition, we invite you to discover them in detail in the New Features section.

After last year's major overhaul of the game's 3D environments, Pro Cycling Manager - Season 2011 moves the focus onto the race protagonists themselves: the riders. The 3D rider models are now a true reflection of actual height and weight, giving  broad range of rider builds. Bike geometries have, in turn, been adapted to these new rider physiques, and now a wide variety of frames and wheels are displayed.

The more life-like appearance of riders is mirrored by more life-like behaviour, brought about by improvements to the game AI and race physics. Riders can no longer pass through opponents, meaning that they must seek a true avoidance path to get past those who are to the side or to the front.

Sprint AI has been totally reworked, making the final kilometres of a race so much more exciting! Races have therefore become more compelling, but they have also become more pleasing to the eye as the number of different 3D route files has been increased, providing a far greater variety of rich, detailed race settings.

The management part of Pro Cycling Manager - Season 2011 has also received an overhaul thanks to an updated interface. Inside this new management GUI the player will have greater interaction with his team's sponsors. This will enhance his role, but it will also bring greater pressure for results.

Finally, cherry on the cake, those who like to play online in multiplayer will be delighted to learn that the multiplayer client has been totally integrated in the game!
