These are the extracts from the official game guide where PES5 produces revels WHY PEOPLE MAKE SO MANY FOULS AND THINK THE GAME IS TOO SLOW SOMETIMES (OR NOT RESPONSIVE ENOUGH!) AND UNREALISTIC!
"TACKLING
While we grudgingly acknowledge that it might still be useful for beginners during their first games, holding X Button to automatically pressure and tackle opponents is now very much a bad habit.
It's far less effective for a variety of reasons. Its principle weakness in PES5 is that it will lead you to concede far too many fouls. The dogged AI "homing" code that once reliably harried and harassed opposing players is now ill-suited to PES5's overhauled tackling system."
"SLIDE TACKLES
When you perform a slide tackle, you commit a player not just to the actual challenge, but the variable delay that follows as he returns to a standing position (and, therefore, active control). The higher a player's Defence ability is, the shorter this delay will be. An additional advantage conferred by a high Defence rating is that the actual tackle will be faster, which reduces the possibility of a player moving before your man connects with the ball.
The most profoundly beneficial attribute that a player can have while performing such challenges, though, is the Sliding Tackle special ability. With this star to his name, a player will be far more precise when sliding, hitting the ball on a higher number of occasions. This increased accuracy also reduces the likelihood of bookings and dismissals: although the referee may blow his whistle, the better technique of your player will often work in his favour, with the match official being less likely to reach for a card. A player with the Sliding Tackle ability will even be able to make precise sliding challenges from behind an opponent, which is something that most other players simply cannot do."
"PLAYER ABILITIES
To get the most out of your team, it's critical that you learn each player's strengths and weaknesses. If you only have a very cursory appreciation of each team member's attributes – say, that player X is fast, player Y is good in the air, and player Z can dribble the ball well – you put yourself at a huge disadvantage. Player abilities and the special ability stars play a massive part in every match – as the following explanation [one of dozens in the full guide] illustrates.
"If a normal player takes about ten animation phases, players with high Agility might only take eight or six in order to cover the same move," reveals Seabass. "It's a matter of what he can do in a smaller amount of time. If the Agility is higher, a player will be able to kick the ball faster than a normal player, who must take a step and then kick. The higher Agility player can just kick the ball immediately. If a player's Agility is very high but his Dribble Accuracy is very low, that player would not be good at dribbling, but he would be very good in performing quick kicks. So: when he dribbles, both abilities really matter.""
Now that's called attention to detail and realism ina computer game.
There you go, these were just SOME extracts from the guide.Now learn how to play.
