Quick question, I'm interested in buying the game because private team mode looks pretty cool. How does it work though. I'm guessing you ride for that team but do you have teammates which you can sign?
After all the mods I released it is excellent fun. There are already an additional 16 real life sponsors in the DL section and even in the stock version there are 8 real life logos. 2 small logos on the bike is incorrect as well - depending on what sponsor you sign with (especially in my mod). You also have the tire manu DUNLOP, HONDA and other logos on that bike (stock).
You have to imagine the Private Team Mode as such an endeavor as Karel Abraham currently embarks on in MotoGP or Gino Rea used to in Moto2. You basically have some starting capital and then you go from there. The better sponsor you can sign with (depends on your results) the better your bike will be out the box as you will have more money for a better chassis, engine depending on what class you are in. Meaning if you finished 10th in Moto2 Championship, chances for a lot of money and a competitive bike in MotoGP are slim. Just like in real life. You might think twice about buying yourself into Aprilia just to ride in MotoGP, when that bike is anything but competitive.
You also have test sessions where u can improve brakes, suspension, chassis, engine (engine only in Moto3 and MotoGP) which will help improve the bike further.
Naturally, you do not have teammates nor should you be able to sign any, as this is not a MotoGP Manager. It is just like in real life, Abraham has no teammates, nor do any other privately owned team riders for one simple reason: MONEY. They are lucky enough to be a part of whatever class they made it in. This game gives you a chance to grow and also you sign with an officially owned team any time you like.
So, the private team option is currently my favorite, playing it with the brand new 2015 Physics Mod (about to be released) and with updated sponsors that can be found in the download section. I am also releasing two more Sponsor packages.
