Getting tonked

[douglas93]

Have no problems offline actually find it quite easy but online, boy am I taking a pasting, played last night and lost 11 out of 12. This version is so different (not saying thats a bad thing). In previous versions I hovered around division 2, probably about my level, yet on this version already down to 434 and sinking.

Anyone else struggling on this version, one thing that seems to happen is all my attacks tend to just breakdown, forwards just seem isolated with no one to pass to. sure its in the strategy bit somewhere.

any help would be appreciated, think of it as good karma.

i think u might need a different formation if you feel your attackers are getting isolated, try playing 1 up frong with a couple of support strikers near him.

Also try passing the ball more in MF as this will bring your players further up the pitch thus them making somekind of forward surge if they feel like it.

I normally play a few season on ML before i try online just so im used to the new control fully and know my teams in and outs. ie if im playing with arsenal i knw arshavin will be in a particular area.

Cheers, think your right mate, ive pretty much gone straight online and now regret it. So different, but despite my defeats I for one believe the actual gameplay is so much better, if its harder, so be it.

your probably getting "tonked" as you call it bacause ur just not used to the new pes, the players movement is much slower which is why its catching u out. you'l probably be fine after aroundd 20 games but by then your stats could be well and truely fuked up.

Check your formation and also check the player cards, some midfielders like cambiasso and mascherano will not go up to attack because they are defense minded, its scripted into them. Other players will not fall back to defend, it all depends on what type of player they are. Say Tevez, he is one of the only strikers that actually comes back to midfield and challenge people. But for the most part, check your formation. Online now is much much balanced, going on crazy runs like in 09 doesnt work anymore. I mean you can still dribble like 2 defenders but next move should be a pass, dont ever get greedy after you dribbled 1 or 2 guys.

They are well and truely fked up! however I did start really well, only lost about 4 in my first 20 games but just recently it seems Ive missed a trick, which lead me to believe other players have spent a bit of time learning offline the tactics and strategy etc and ive been deservedly left behind.

Could be im just sh*te of course.
