Let's Get Over With This Whining!!!

I MADE THIS AS A NEW THREAD ON PURPOSE SO DON’T DELETE IT PLEASE, I WANT EVERYBODY TO READ IT FIRST!
THANKS! :)

I got REALLY pissed off after spending A LOT OF TIME reading people complaining about things that make PES3 realistic and same as real life football.

Since I have HUGE soccer gaming experience (since early 1980s) and since I played almost every soccer game ever made I have to say this:

I sat down, read ALL of the threads and comments and this is what I have come up with.
People are paradoxes and say things like, I LOVE PES3, ITS THE MOST REALISTIC SOCCER GAME EVER and then same people say how GK are too weak, refs are too strict, it's TOO HARD to score (since you can't just walk through defence and so on) etc ...
C'mon people, get real, first WATCH REAL FOOTBALL then compare it to PES3!!!
I played FIFA 2004 and have to say that I disagree with some people on this forum and other forums.

STOP MIXING TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF FOOTBALL GAMES.
THERE ARE SIMULATIONS AND ARCADE FOOTBALLS, (and managers)

What makes that HUGE difference is GAMEPLAY!
And to have good Gameplay, regarding other things, REALISM is essential, and that's what is missing in FIFA (and other soccer games except WE and PES).
Ball physics - FAR BEHIND PES!
Passing - far behind PES
AI - far behind PES!
Player animation - AGAIN, FAR BEHING PES!
Moves - you can count them with your fingers of both hands. (in FIFA of course)
FIFA is TOO simple, too arcade...
License and online support are the only good things in FIFA and that’s what PES REALLY MISS (good commentary also).
Of the ball control - mates, in WE and PES, Of the ball control exists since ISS PRO EVO, so what's new in that???
I agree that there is no power bar in penalties, but that is actually good thing in PES otherwise Penalties would be EASY AS!, this way they are more unpredictable and DEPEND ON PLAYER ABILITY (as in REAL LIFE) AND YOUR FEELING, WHICH IS WHAT MAKES PES REALISTIC, got that guys??? Same thing for the Free Kicks!

Somebody said that PES3 is TOO HARD; IT'S HARD TO SCORE, AND COMPUTER SEEMS TO CHEAT AND SCORES MUCH EASIER.
Well I have to admit that this is the FIRST football simulation where you have to LEARN HOW TO DEFEND and to master that as well, and not just to concentrate on HOW TO SCORE A GOAL.
PES3 is the first game that made me think, and made me not to focus on winning only, but how to save the result, how to get 0-0, 1-1, and so on. Like in real life, it's not always necessary to win the game, but to go through in the next round.
In PES3 referee is more stricken, AS IT IS IN REAL LIFE, so stop whining about that as well,
and again,
In PES3, you have to BUILD UP your play and attack, to defend yourselves, you have to THINK and master your skills and moves to be able to score. (Isn’t that the whole idea of soccer, or is it just me???) It's not TOO HARD to score once you are in front of the keeper or have good chance, or found a hole in opponents defence, LIKE IN REAL FOOTBALL.

And goalkeepers ARE NOT WEAK, they are realistic. When was the last time you saw GK in real life to catch the ball when somebody blast it??? NEVER! What they do? They box it; punch it, whatever you're going to call it. Also, good free kicks, accurate shots are HARD TO STOP in reality, and that's how it is in PES3 as well. While In PES2 and in ALL FIFA series, GK are jumping like panthers catching EVERYTHING, which is unrealistic.

Even though FIFA now has totally different feeling than before, it's still ARCADE football, and you can compare it only to PES ARCADE!
PES3 is Football simulation and don't forget that.

But, I'm not saying that we should not try new FIFA. Arcade football is FUN as well, and I played club football, virtua striker 3, this is football, PES ARCADE, and I enjoy playing it from time to time, but I still prefer football simulations, which is, ONE AND ONLY, PES3 (and WE7)!!!
That’s where I find passion and satisfaction.

PES ARCADE is best arcade football, FIFA is in second place, Virtua Striker 3rd, CLUB Football 4th, This is football 5th, etc…

In Football simulations, there are ISS PRO EVO (1,2) WE(1,2,3,4,5,5FE, 6, 6I, 6JL, 6FE,7) and of course PES (1,2,3).
And that's how it is guys...


HOPEFULLY THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT FIND THEMSELVES IN THIS TEXT AND AGREE WITH ME. I know that many will disagree, but sorry guys that’s reality!

Cheers MATES :)

P.S. of course and PES has some imperfect things but they are not worth of mentioning! :)

Stutter...

PES3 would be the best football game out there if it didn't have the stutter bug. As this has already been discussed, I'll just say that I agree with most of the points that you have brought up. :)

Brilliant post mate. You are totally correct. Defending is as much an art as attacking...this is real football...people need to know this. Winning is not always an option. If a team like wolves could get a draw against a team like arsenal I know they woul take it. Watch some football on TV and think about how it's played and I promise PES3 stacks up very close to the real thing. Games with closely matched teams are a roll of the dice but players still have to give thier best effort, same in PES3.

OMG, This "MUST" be a thread of the year. I agree with everything you said 100% , and I support your thoughts, everything you said is well put together, and if I was a teacher you would get an A+ (The best grade/score in USA)..I am also tired of some people like you mentioned complaining 24/7 about some corny stuff.. So far you and Jag87, probably Zyg are the most advanced PES/WE gurus, vets however you want to call it..so I assume you played WE7 and probably did PES3 final version..what is your opinion which game is better, and which game has better sides, up's and downs etc..

thanks in advance

Great post mate, I pretty much agree with you, when I was reading the forums before I got the game, the amount of complaints mentioned almost led me to thinking it was a bad game.

But I believe that the PES series is so perfect that the flaws just seem that much more apparent.

The goalkeepers do suck though, their inconsistencies are stupid. They save great plays and shots, yet they fumble simple corners and crosses and allow easy tap-ins. The fumbling seems more of a flaw then a realistic feature.

Nevertheless, this game's passing, dribbling, defending, tactics, features, presentation, commentation, master league, team editing options are twice as good as PES2. :D

Very nice man very nice

Maybe itll get some people thinking why theyre in a pes forum coating the game off

FIFA forums are just a click away lads

And look at it- the graphics are nice- but i bet its full of shit ;)

sorry about that.what I meant to say is that the Fifa games have dominated our local markets 4 the past few years and it is only over the past year that S Africans have learnt to enjoy real soccer i.e. PES

WOW.............................................................

i've got to agree with everything (actually all but one point)

but POST OF THE YEAR?????????????????? ....................
its got my nomination!!!!!!

but i disagree with point about penalties. like i said before, it just feels too predetermined, a power bar would make them 10 times better

I pretty much agree with all of your post except one little thing like another guy said before : STUTTER ! ==> that is a major bug in the game almost making it unplayable at times, especially once I edited some kits ...just too bad .

I'm playing the pc demo. I've edited some kits, balls, music,gamelenght etc.. and no stutter
So would this make the pc version of pes3 the ultimate football sim? :D

Keepers.. dont know, i've got an mixed feeling, sometimes it's very realistic but other times they don't punch the ball but just let it go and the ball drops down... result.. tap in, that's even with slow easy to get balls.

In a real football game, when a player gets a penalty do you see anywhere on your TV a power bar, so you can exacly know what speed the ball is going to get ??, NO. And this thread is turned out to be whining again..:<

Funny that some people who have been on the forums for hardly a month (forget about a year) are hailing this 'post of the year'. :rolleyes:

They're some definite flaws in the game, and if you've ever been on a PES/WE forum during or just after the release of a new game, you'll always see threads filled with complaints and you just have to learn to respect that. It's all opinion and instead of telling the thread starter and his supporters to shut up and only come to the forums if they love the game, it would be easier to help them out and, alternatively, find solutions to their problems so they can enjoy the game like most of us.

Let's face it, not everybody will love the game. Some might prefer a slightly less pacier game, one more suited to their style of play and their opinion may never change. Others, however, the majority I like to think, are just a bit bemused and hesitant to approach the game which is in fact a huge leap from PES2. Those people's first impressions can be changed. So let's change them.
