I think the passing is poor.
I'm playing with no assistance on, yet quite a lot of the time they don't go where I aim. I find a lot of passes (especially so called "through balls") go behind the player I'm aiming at.
I also find I have little control over the power of the pass. Sometimes they whack it when I tap the button, sometimes they tap it when I whack the button.
No Assistance...Full Assistance...2 bars....
doesn't matter...i get the same hideous control over passing as well!
3/4/5/6 star difficulty...no difference...
Through Passes are a broken!... especially L1 Thru balls!
Gone are the days of the nice ping-ay and weighted passes from PES5/6 days!
the whole FEEL of the passing system in PES12 feels off...
broken...slow...heavy...feels like FIFA11 passing!
there is no zip to the ball at all now...
Hold the pass (x) button full...the pass goes under hit to the wrong player...
Tap the pass (x) button...and the pass decides its now going to be over hit...
1-2's...
again...same as above...its Russian roulette wither its going to come off!
all because the PES seems to disregard what action is ACTUALLY taken on the X button...
aye, there is a learning curve...
but helps if the "goal posts" don't keep constantly changing!
its as though with each pass you make...the rules change!?!
never had ANY issue with the passing system in any of the PES games...till now
I am not ranked in the top 10 BEST ranked players when it comes to PES....
but i know the difference between a game that is programmed properly!
To put it into context...
Its like BF3/MW3 having issues with how far the grenade gets thrown!
The CODING Voice!
"NOPE!...you are only going to chuck the grenade this far this time!..hahaha"
"Hold R1 for automatic fire are you?!...na!...
you need to tap it each time per bullet wanting fired!"
PES5/6...they are the mile stones!
Had them on PC...fully modded with kit and stadiums servers!
BEST PES games...and still the best tbh!
PES 2008 should of been PES6...with
HD Graphics...
2009 onwards should of seen the addition of..
new animations...360 control...AI improvements...
Stadium editor...ML/BAL etx....
Its 2011 and PES2012...
And we are still waiting for the improved version of PES6!
