Small introduction to legends online...

Righty, I have figured out how this legend thing works online now. After just one game! :) Which was fucking awesome BTW! We won 2-0, I setup both goals and we was down to 10 men! :D

Here goes... BTW, I'm explaining this for PC, not sure if console works differently.

Once you have your legend, and your ready to play online... DON'T press on legends in the main menu for your first go online. Instead, go back to Become a legend and you will have "legends" in the BAL menu, where you have everything else such as... Next match, save, options, etc... Now press on "Legends" then you should see "scout players". This is where improving your legend plays an important key! When you do a few seasons, your salary gets higher and higher. Now the salary points ain't for show as some of us thought.

You use the salary you earn in BAL offline, to bring AI players into your online legends team. You can select a maximum of 4 players, that's 1 goalkeeper, 1 defender, 1 midfielder and 1 striker. This is where your salary plays an important part. Say your salary is 1500pts, you can only get a striker who has also got a salary of up to 1500pts. Your salary ain't split between your 4 players so you can get 1 goalkeeper up to 1500pts, 1 defender up to 1500pts, 1 midfielder up to 1500pts and 1 striker up to 1500pts.

I know some of you are thinking WTF are you on about, and I'm sorry if this sounds a mess... But anyway...

You should now have 4 AI players... GK, DF, MID and ATT... Make sure you save as you would normally save your BAL and go online with your legend.

When ever you play legends online, you are one team and one team only. That's Legends FC, the host will pick the AI team and away you go... Now, depending on how many human players are playing, (will say 4 and we are hosting) the host will set the formation and pick the team. Now the host will have all the players at he's disposal... He will get the 4 human players, then he will get the 4 players he chose in BAL offline, remember that bit? Now, not only will he get those 4 players to choose from, but he will also get the 4 players from each human player so that's... 4 goalkeepers, 4 defenders, 4 midfielders and 4 strikers. Now, if one player hasn't chosen he's 4 players in BAL offline, they will be replace with the default players from the master league default team, the really shit players...

One more thing to add, if somehow all 4 human players manage to pick the same 4 players, your basically fucked. :) The rest of the team will be made up of default master league players :(

Anyway that's enough of me rambling on, and I hope it was clear enough to understand. :)

BTW, it seems legends online has a separate ranking system than playing online normal. Not sure if its ranked, but you do get stats towards your online profile and I can also confirm you don't get any points towards your legend as you do in BAL offline.

Haha. And here's me thinking it was just a bit odd that one day Kenwyne Jones was playing for Legends FC along with the four of us players. Never bothered looking into that Scout feature again as I looked at it once when I first started BAL mode and couldn't figure it out. Cheers for the heads up

Basically, when your playing BAL "offline", in the menu you have the option "legends" that will take you online. But once you press on "Legends" you get 2 options - "scout players" and "online".

Scout players is where you choose 4 players that you take with you to play online.

1 Goalkeeper
1 Defender
1 Midfielder
1 Striker

So I will choose the following players as example...

Goalkeeper - Reina
Defender - Carragher
Midfielder - Gerrard
Striker - Torres

However, when you first start off in BAL, your starting salary is something like 100pts which is fuck all... I'm in my 4-5th season, can't remember... But my salary is about 1400pts. You get higher contract offers as you progress throughout the seasons. Now with your salary points, you can get 4 players within the same salary bracket as yours. You can get players lower, but not higher than your salary.

So if you have 100pts as your salary, you won't be taking a player like Torres online with you. If your salary is 2000pts, you should be bringing some of the best players with you.

Once you have selected your 4 players, they will follow you to any online legend match you play. You can also change the players by going back to BAL offline.

So the main goal, improve your legend as much as possible, play well and get big moves with big salaries in BAL offline. Then use your salary to choose 4 players of your choice to take online. :)

Is that a bit clearer? :erm:

No problems :)

I will enjoy it much more knowing what I know now... I know the 4 players that I'm bringing with me. :)

Lol... Master league players? But if your at that stage, your best waiting to go online until your statistics grow a bit more :)

My first game, I didn't really understand what I was doing with picking the 4 players so I picked the highest players I could find. Then once I went online for a test run, I see all the players I chose, in the team. :)

Here's who I chose...

Goalkeeper - Buffon
Defender - Nesta
Midfielder - Inesta
Striker - Villa

I setup Villa twice. :D The guy I was playing with was a great team player so the game was fluent, also on top player :)

I chose England at first thinking that was our team, but when in the formation settings it was very clear on how it works ;)

This mode is interesting but I don't really see a challenge, or fun as you can't play against humans.

Can you say Gaffa, arguments that give us the will to play Legends online ?
Dunno : rankings system is fair ? AI is good ?

I've only had one game online... :)

For me the AI are just as good online as they are offline (in top player). Ranking system... Well, just like you get the ranking system for normal play, it shows in one window your favourite team and player, then in the next it shows your online statistics. Same goes for legends online. Although the statistics are different. It shows team work ability and some others, can't remember sorry. :)

But someone else posted a few days ago about legends online being fun. Even though you don't play against human players, its has so much fun to offer if you play with others that stick to their position and play as a team. Players than run off and do their own thing spoil it for others. Its just a matter of finding the right players, which is why I have made a post to try and organise some legend games online. :) (PC only)

If you own PES on console, maybe you should make a topic seeking players? This way you will find like minded people and have a great game. :)

But I have yet to play online, I don't have a player online name yet.

Gaffa, thank you! I have a question about expirience - do i get any match exp playing online? I guess for training exp the answer is no :) Will my offline stats rise while playing online and vice versa? Will my char age playng online? And what actually hitting "to legends" button does in BAL->Legens menu (next to scouts selection)?
Don't want to get online until i'm ready, on the other hand starting late can also be no good if player will age...
