That Meite is a DMF right? Perhaps Souahilo Meite?

I am on PS3 still bud, was hoping that an editor may have been done this year, but seems not.

Yep, that's the Meite I signed from Lille. Absolute beast of a player though he's a bit sluggish getting around.

Just lost my 2nd game 2-0 at Spurs, went defensive and they dominated. Finding the Prem quite hard but most my squad are still between 68-75 rated

Im trying Master League with Atletico de Madrid. Im playing on Top Player difficulty since I think it gives me the best and most balanced challenges (im not a very good player). I have already played like 15 games in Spain, 4 in Champions League. Got beaten by Real 1-4, because I didnt play smart and was running only forward. I liked that, while getting good results agains weaker teams. But... DID ANYONE EXPERIENCED BARCA ACTING STRANGE? Like [youtube]watch?v=YeimZdB3B3Y[/youtube]

As I mentioned I`ve played 15 games already and Barcelona has scored only 18 goals and conceded 3, including one from me. Messi is nowhere in the top scorers list. Ok, maybe a bad mood or something, but it was even more weird when I played against them. They didnt pressure me at all, I could pass the ball between my defenders whole game. Suarez, Messi, Neymar were only defending and doing nothing. They were running very slow as well, I could easily steal them and start my own attack. So they didnt have any intentions to score or to control the ball, they just would give it away to me and start defending pretty badly. I could easily have won by 3-0 or more, but for the sake of realism I kept it at 1-0 and just passed the ball forwards and backwards without any resistance. Until now it was a pleasant experience, but after these kind of tricks, I dont know if I want to continue, makes it kind of useless. Hmm.

I never played in La Liga, but I guess it's normal for that to happen to some top team, and differently from game to game.

From my own experience Arsenal scores an average of 1.1 goals per game in the entire season, which is ridiculous. They also suffer almost as few goals as me, which is quite rare (in EPL not so much, but it's still a really solid defence). Oh, and Everton is always trailing in the last places, escaping demotion in the finals weeks.

If you remember dysproz's ML (I think it was him) Everton and Aston Villa were the main contenders for the league title (huge difference compared to me) and Arsenal beahved pretty much the same (not many goals), but he did played 5 min games, so all teams had weak attacking numbers.

In summary, I'd be happy that Barcelona is not making your life difficult, and sad that we are still finding things in PES that are messed up.

Thanks for the reply. Afcorse, its nice when teams like Barca arent overpowered and there is a chance to beat them, but the thing is it was just too easy... I had two times more problems playing against Deportivo than them. Deportivo is like Hull City in PL. You have to be very careful or you will lose. I managed to draw with Depor only in the last few seconds. I might continue this journey, just to see how things go and if there will be more unbalanced things. I also had strange stuff going with transfers. I`ve got three straight offers from Bayern. They wanted Griezmann, Arda Turan and I think Koke. The most they offered was for Koke, like 15 million euros. Griezmann apparently was worth only 10m. So afcorse I refused everything. Tryed to get Nani for myself some time ago and Sporting asked for at least 30-40 million euros... But it doesnt beat Robin van Persie. When I approached him, Man United wanted at least 95 million. But this problem is already known.

Bal player

Okay, so i bought my BAL player(AMF) who is 18 and rated 82 OVR...it has been almost a season now and though he assists regularly and even scores sometimes..
But he hasnt risen even +1...so do i have to play my BAL game and save the data so dat my player gets updated..pr i keep pn going with his training in ML?

 

[rebelinho]

- Caskey is fucking amazing. Sign him, now.
- Finally Ibe is showing promise, after a few very poor weeks. Last season he was my best player stat wise. Go figure.
- Hendrick played less than usual in the last games due to NT fatigue, played in the last game for UCL, showing promise as well. I guess the 1st team place competition with Caskey is doing him well.
- Again, and always, Wisdom is the best player in the game when heading the ball.
- Stones is faster than Rooney, a better passer than half the United team, and is a CB. He's so good that Dier is my 3rd option (playing a 3 man backline), Helander is going out (can't play him alone). Dier is being used as a DMF lately, following Neves fatigue and RLC shit form.
- Ings is an okay player, never did much but plays consistently. If you need a stra for your attack I wouldn't recommend him.
- Stremer will be the best player in the game. He's amazing, 18 or 19 years old, and already a beast.
- Kane has been good, but never matched his first season again. Stremer all the way.

- Finally managed to win against Chelsea, 0x1 at The Bridge. They bought Benatia (monster, wins everyhting and he's fast), Eriksen (has the touch of a God) and Welbeck (fast and powerful, I hate the man).
- 10 games win, at least 5 points clear in 1st place (I don't recall the exact number of points)

 

[rebelinho]

Went crazy in Januray's transfer window. This the result:

- Moore in for 4m.
- Daehli in for 5.6m.
- Redmond in for 7.5m.
- Helander, Ings, Fabianski without contract renewals
- Zaha in a 4m/year contract, out of pure greed of seeling him for a shitload of money and finance The Signing aka Sterling. I could have done it already but then I'd have too many options; Liverpool's asking for ~40m.
- Stremer saw his wage go up 9x to 2.1m.
- RLC, Kane and Guedes saw their wages reduced (not even God (aka Caskey) knows how).

I decided to start an Asian ML last night, with Cerezo Osaka. Still easy as fuck, but it does help when you have a striker like Forlan who can bang them in from any angle. Managed to sign Isco and Kane on loan.... highly realistic!

Try to adjust your tactics, Barca that is, When out of possession push them high up so they press your defenders. Change 'Pressing' to agressive, push their defensive line high up the pitch. I think you get the idea, I used to have the same problem but after tweaking the tactics of every team (I know its time consuming) I am glad to say I am once again enjoying PES ML. Not perfect but better.

Who the fuck are Alpitano Bunan (or whatever they're called), and why do they have so many good young players?

Konami's laziness really comes to the forefront when playing in the PAS League - all the fake teams have the same kit design, albeit different colours. And the commentating has been irritating me so much that I've been muting the game in some matches, when I'm playing the fake teams, it's just the way he says the names, it's like he's learning to say them for the first time, just doesn't sound natural at all.
For some reason, a few of the fake teams have commentary for all their players, whereas I play with a real team (Cerezo Ozaka), with a real kit, majority seem to be real faces, yet there's hardly any commentary for them!

Probably licensing reasons. Brasileirão is the same, some teams are not licensed, but players in that team can be. And some unlicensed teams might have all their squad licensed.

Because yes.

I don't recall a game where this has been done differently. We need to get used to this kind of incompetence.

And the commentating has been irritating me so much...

Turn off that shit, best decision I've made regarding PES in many years.

I'm not sure it's licensing reasons. I'm gonna put it down to laziness again!

Because yes.

As good an answer as any, I suppose.

We shouldn't! This is next gen FFS. How much extra effort can it take to make the kit designs different.

But I'll miss their insightful comments. :erm:

As much as we shouldn't, we have to. They'll not change, the series will end before that. Pray I'm wrong.

But I'll miss their insightful comments. :erm:

Remember my master plan of giving 4m to Zaha to finance Sterling's signing? Well, I've played PES for the first time since then, and he was in the last 4 games (out of 5). 8 goals and 3 assists in those 4 games, including a hat-trick + 1 assist vs United (I love playing against them, my worst result was (afair) a 3-0 victory).

 

[flushje]

Can someone direct me to where I can get the real teams? I am a complete newb when it comes to installing stuff like this so any help and I would be greatful. I am playing on a PC.

good morning to you sirs ! it's been a while since i last tread these waters. Let me tell you where i'am now.....Well i still currently own a ps3 and fifa 15 but i am investing in a ps4 and after watching the pes16 trailer i am optimistic that konami can finally pull it out the bag this year! they were so close with 15 but unfortunately they still didn't get it as it should've been, well saying this has the game had many updates and/or improvements to gameplay or other things in the past 4/5 months ??? and for the better or worse ??? depending on your expert analysis, then i will buy a cheap copy to kill time until september cheers mate.

 

[Ali]

As far as I can tell, there's been no improvements to gameplay. You might as well just wait for the next one to come out. Plenty of other great games on the PS4 to kill your time.
