HELP I cant win anymore!

[id43wor]

I used to be so good, averaging at 650 ranking on pes 08 and 09 but this year I feel completely useless and after many hours of quick matching it im stuck at 450. even when Im not being completely molested by ronaldo and messi I still cant seem to score and my defending is a joke. in past games theres always been a braking in period but this is a joke I bought it on launch day I fucking hate it it makes me so angry but I can't stop trying, hoping that today it just might click.

Has this been the case for anyone else? any advice because I've got 2 weeks off work and if it hasnt let me play after that Im going to suck EA off. I love pes and I dont want 2 fight anymore.

Well I went back to PES2009, not necessarily because of the online, but because of other game issues.

 

[id43wor]

understandable but 2009 online is unplayable, I don't really want to give up, and 2010 is so enjoyable to play against the cpu but online you don't have time to pass nevermind dazzle your opponent. Am I doing something wrong or is this just how it is?

 

[sugarbear]

to be honest m8, am the same since the update the other day. am no longer in a league, am playin peeps are well above my rating n gettin tanked. My rating is now below 450 where my ratin was 478 before the update, but i havent won since the update and shock most peeps play as barca or madrid, or brazil or argentina.

if i was you, keep in there as ul finally get a game where ul win. Prob against me.. lol

One question: Why do you care so much about your ranking ? Trying to prove what exactly. Just play your friends and other cool people for a good football match and that satisfaction. Ratings are pointless IMO. I just beat some guy who is apparently one of the best rankers on PES 10 and he lost 3-1 using BARCELONA of course. Rankings mean shit.

Rankings are a joke in this game. All you have to do to get high rankings is to only play in matchrooms and cherrypick your opponents. Look at their stats and only play them if they're crap. That's what I used to do when I first started. I now play anybody accept the top 500 players because a lot of those guys are probably cheating.

This is a funny game though. I went on a 8 win streak, then I lost 5 out of 6 (3 were due to losing connection), then another 8 win streak, then I lose another 4 in a row. I've beaten guys above me, and I've lost to guys well below me. the highest I've ever been ranked is 571, because I'm so inconsistent. When I'm really on game I'm capable of giving anybody a run for their money

sniper is like me. losing and win streaks all the time

for the thread starter..

my advise is to do the following

practice your one - two 's , it has to be done at the right time..preferably to free your CM or AM.....for instance if you use your CM to do a one - two with the winger....when the Cm is darting forward..use the winger to get tthe ball to a player LOWER down from the forward charging CM..if the CM is set to attack minded and you do this,..for some reason they keep running..then try to play a throgh ball BEHIND the defender..this might work or it might not

practice you over the top through balls...make sure you do it from the DEEP positions lke CB or full back IF they dont have pass ratings and check the radar to see if you players are towing the line..it can get your guys free and the keepers can make some serious howlers

try lots of early crosses....and use the R2 button to get your guys to run forawrd and attack the header as they noramlly get the step on their defenders

practice your shooting with the R2 button.....if you are running diagonally downwards..just before you shoot press R2 and hold DOWN (NOT diagonal downwards as you are running....just plain DOWN as you are just about to shoot) that find the bottom corner....you can do the same if you are running down across the box too.

KEEP shooting cause yiou can score from crazy angles and keepers make hash of easy stuff

defending wise.....make sure you keep a line defense...across the board.....try not to panick and dont over hold the support button.........if you use the pressure tactic in the strategy area and implement it in the game...that tactic (usually tactic O) along with a high pressure setting in your style can acctually make the CPU try and get the ball off the opposition..or at least slide them through...and you can play support. the pressure thing is key so that you dont let the other guy have time on the ball.....the reason for this is because there is a large space between the midfield or defense that players exploit and run at you..if you think about it inreal life..you will always be screwed if you let ronaldo or messi have a head start running at you with space either side of them

also using your strikers and Attackin mids to cover the open spaces in the mioddle or to support your wide players defending, thereby alos leaving you other middle players to cover and press (dont forget you have the presssing thing on high , with the pressure tactic on) it can really clog up the midfield and stifle the other persons game

strength isnt as important now as it was in past pro games..if your man has speed then HIT the mother fucking gas...get the ball and run forward..kick it ahead of you and just run...and you side right past people...hold the R2 button and slide the shot where you want.

btw has anyone noticed that sometimes the opposing defenders literally ghost past super fast players at the speed of light? henry for instance CANNOT get away from sergio ramos...wierd

@ Dapluto thanks for the tips, it's funny you should mention the R2 shot because I actually instinctly abuse it and I'm at the stage where every shot is side footed no matter what the situation or distance I cant help it but nevermind that I'm working on it.

The emphasis was not on my ranking I was simply using it to underline my problem, which is I am undoubtably being raped online and this has never happened to me before. I don't care what anyone says you can't enjoy a game where 80% of the time you dominate, are the better team and lose. Not just by one I mean propper ham spanking.

managed to win a few today with a 4-2-3-1 formation, even when messi exploaded into my half leaving my midfield in disarray I had enough back up behind them to eventually poke it away but fuck me is it a full time job or what, I do actually get physically exhausted playing barca lol. The tactic sliders help insanely to creating more opportunities I love them more than my missus.

RANKING now at 490 which feels so much better. My mates are all high end 500's and its embarassing when they see mine. If caring about this makes me less of a man so be it

 

[DIECI]

use Barca for a few games and you'll start winning again LOL!

 

[sniper09]

I always use Chelsea against Barcelona and I almost always win. Using a 4-1-2-3 formation and positioning Essien (the DMF) slightly to the side where Messi is. I tight mark Messi with Ashley Cole and Essien. Terry and Carvalho loose mark Ibrahimovich and Bosingwa loose marks Henry. All five of my defensive players are on defensive mindset. Barca players trying to get through that is like trying to break through an iron wall.

 

[ThaReaper01]

I use Man U. Rooney as the lone striker, have 5 defenders, 4 in midfield.


.......................VDS....................

Brown (RB)................Vidic(CB).............Ferdinand.............O'Shea.............Evra



Valencia................Anderson..............Hargreaves..................Nani


................................................Rooney..............



Barcelona is really no problem because Messi is the only one that can hurt me, and I slide tackle him before he gets going. Nani and Valencia out pace Xavi and Iniesta, as does Rooney with Puyol and Pique.


Real Madrid is REAL easy. Stack the midfield. Put Rooney at LMF, move Valencia to CMF along with Anderson and Hargreaves, and have Nani on the right. Brown, Vidic, Ferdinand and Evra on the back 4.

yeah then I will pimp out my girlfriend and sell my soul
