What a missed opportunity! This really could have been the year where Konami re-establishes itself as the preferred football game for sim fans. However, the game (or at least the demo) is bugged with some absurd programming, which ultimately ruins it. But first the positives. For large...

Thank you both

Why is it that if you select a sub their rating becomes lower once dragged on the pitch. Say I have a LB on the bench who is 70. I use him in place of the current LB and his rating becomes 60 despite his form arrow being better than the player I have just subbed! ANy idea?

Ali, I take your point regarding the creation of threads when similar one exists already. Thanks for moving and incorporating in this thread. My question was regarding the colour coding that you see at the Game Plan screen, i.e. you can see the player's name, then underneath you see two...

Players form I understand how the arrows affect players form. The question I have is this: is it worth substituting a star player who has a blue or purple arrow with a mediocre player who has a yellow/red arrow? In other words, is the form based purely on mathematical parameters, or does it...

Tried the double tap crossing + left stick back and it really works. Scored a couple of headers and a great volley. Thank you!

Rain is only visible in the pre-game stadium shot. If you look hard enough you will see it. It is subtle but realistic at the same time. During gameplay it just looks a bit "misty" and you can't see the actual drops (I play on the Pitch side camera). In my experience I can't see that rain has...

Gameplay tweaks with new data pack? Is it just me or the game plays a bit differently after the update? Not sure if it's jus an illusion but I find the control a bit more crisp and responsive. Any observations from the community?

Whilst on defense during a game last night, I could just "feel" one of those through ball moments coming, so I tried to prevent that by selecting my LB and starting a run towards my goal (ensuring I stayed in front of the CPU player). In doing so, the CPU striker was squeezed between the said LB...

Totally agree with above assessment. I'm glad it isn't just me... At the moment that's just killing the game for me. Typically I have possession at about 60 - 65 %, outshoot the CPU by at least 3-4 shots, but then the CPU will do one of these chips, coupled with the winger flying at what...

So your point is what - if it's in the real life, why not implement it in the game? There are so many reasons to disagree with this logic. If Konami are so passionate about realism, why do they not add some (much necessary) realism elements, such as player able to head the ball instead of...

Already a few times now I have had suspicions about the CPU scoring a goal from an offside position. The thing is I never have the patience to watch those replays, so I usually skip them, taking for granted that the AI in the game has made the right decision. Well, today the CPU scored a goal...

Setabasso, thanks for your insight and patience in analysing and answering players’ woes. I am having a love-hate relationship with this game. I can go through periods of pain and misery, leading me to switching off the PS3 mid-game, but when I experience a moment of unparalleled realism...

This is a great insight. Thanks What would be your recommendation for defending the CPU through ball success? That is the one thing that's killing me. They just manage perfect through balls - either to the wings, but more frequently through the middle, sending their striker in a one-on-one...

Drop down a level. No shame in that. You'll still have challenging games - against both weak and strong teams for different reasons (weak teams will park the bus and strong teams will play attacking football).

What's the reason for your envy, brother?

I turned all assists off (thus making it fully manual), dropped down level (to Regular) and I am enjoying this game a lot right now. I don't profess to be an expert in PES and I was finding the Professional level too much of a challenge. In another thread that I commented on, I mentioned that...

I tried it and it's strange. I can't see any difference between just pressing X and pressing X + R2. It's the same animation, same movement.

Just to make sure I understand. You mean R2 + X and not L2 + X, right. In other words, special control button and X?
