Master league experience points help?

[Tetsuo0410]

Hi all,
I can't really figure out how the experience point system works in ML. you can set points in training. But after a match only a few players have a yellow bar for exp.
Then again, some players do level without any yellow bar.
I have got the feeling no player really gets better.
I am in second season now.

I'm having the same problem. Can someone explain how the orange experienc bar works? This is my first pes 2010 ML with fiorentina. Montolivo's experience bar is completely full, he seems to be making the most improvement in stats from experience. But what exactly does this bar correspond to? Can it be improved? Decreased? How? Thanks in advance.

I'm no expert here but I've played through 7 seasons of ML now and here is what I believe to be true. On the Training screen, the experience points bar tells you roughly how much each player improves each half-week. The longer the bar the more the player improves. Players that do not improve or are regressing do not have a bar. Everytime you advance from 1 half-week to the next, a screen appears that tells you how much each player improved during that half-week. Again the longer the experience points bar, the more improvement occurred. If you highlight a player on that screeen, it will show you on the right how each of the player's stats improved or regressed that week. That is the only way to tell if a player is regressing as opposed to staying the same since there is no experience points in both cases.

I don't know if there is a difference in improvement for players that play and players that don't. I have seen players that just sit on my bench make great improvement strides so that may not be the case. Your players do improve more when you play important matches though because I have noticed that the experience points bars are much longer in week where I have played a Champions League match.

I hope this helps.

I think the length of the experience bar is based only upon each player's individual development curve. I don't think there is anything you can do to change it. In past years, winning made you players improve faster but I'm not sure if that is case anymore. I haven't noticed a difference.

I think its a combination of all of the above

It has something to do with the players themselves -
Like with your scout, if you are looking at a young player, your scout may tell you something like, 'he is developing at a steady pace' or 'a late bloomer, but should maintain level' So this will contribute. The same way in real life Wayne Rooney has gotten better, but Francis Jeffers has not... some players are just better than others.

This is combined with the more you actually play the guy, and it definately helps if you play him in a european game.
So if you get a really good player with a bright future, and dont play him, he may still develop more than if you buy a rubbish player, and play him a lot - it depends on the players capacity to develop, and how much he plays.

Montolivo is a prime example of a great player, he will develop no matter what, but i bought a young player recently, and his stats got worse, even when i played him the whole game.

main 2 things you need to know -
- Some players are just better and will develop more than others regardless
- The more you play someone, the more they can develop, especially if you play them in important games

You can normally tell - if a player is good and young (under 24) and is a regular in your team, he should increase his overall rating by around 3-4 per season. Maybe even more if he is under 20.
I often find if you promote a youth team player, and put him straight into your first team for a season, he can go from 60 up to 66 or something like that.

also, they will start to develop less and less the older they get, so once a player reaches 26, its only really teamwork that will improve. Again, your scout may say something like 'player is very much the finished article'
once they start to get even older, you will see stats like Pace starting to drop off...

capish?

Sorry, just thought as well, can you not see the skills next to the bar on the Development page?
maybe you have to use the right trigger button, but once you check a players individual stats, it should show you how much they have improved, you should (hopefully) be able to see a bit of light blue on the bar, and it'll show you how long to go until they improve that particular stat - Teamwork is normally improved much quicker than other things...

it also depends on if the paler is in specialist training . they receive less experience that way to balance out the skill acquired .
it also seems that if ur guy gets a good rating he gets more exp . this is cos sometimes the xp seems to vary for the same player even if u played him for the whole match
