I've actually come to enjoy it! Primarily, lets me focus less on their potential for potential, and just play them. I've grown players with less than amazing curves* into world class over a few seasons, due solely to actually using them instead of opting to play the guys with better growth...

They must've upped the realism this year.

Fatigue affects Stamina. As it goes up, Stamina and eventually other stats in-match take a noticeable hit (well, unless your player's mentality/tenacity is very high). If your player gets subbed with more than 15 minutes to go, Fatigue tends to stay pretty low. However, I once had a player...

If it's at the lowest level, 80+ is extremely rare! Normally pumps out players in the 50s and 60s! Hard to say who'll turn out "better", both should hit at least ~95 overall by 25 or so since they both have steady development. Once again, for me, Tenorio would be the better option, because he...

I'd personally go for the striker. His set of high stats (stamina through agility, shooting, tenacity, form) should make him more useful right out of the gate. Really depends on what your squad looks like, though, as the first can play quite a few positions, so if you're short on all-around...

Injury time is infinite as long as the AI has the ball and needs a goal. However, it's non-existent if you're clean through on goal in search of a winner.

Duffy is a legend of the classic ML Youth that used to pop up at various times in older versions of the game in the "Newcomers" section of player search, along with the likes of Bos, Kaiser, Shaw and co. In 2010 ML, the "classic youth" were much more rarely encountered, if ever (with the...

Bnarck is Andreas Brehme! Dunno his stats off the top of my head, but aside from the usual suspects, the real PES Free Kick Legend is, naturally, Jaric! ;^)

Happened in '10, too. I made a 6'7", 200-lb DMF who developed 95 Body Balance after a couple seasons, but he could be pushed off the ball by Messi or any other CPU-controlled player whenever the game felt like it. The exact opposite of the Adriano Problem of older games.

PES has never genuinely implemented the backpass rule, afaik, but it's pretty rare to encounter an "intentional" violation in the game.

Very few of the legendary "ML Youth" were in 2010's Master League (though they were ALL still in BAL!?), really only came through the Youth Team in the first season or two if you started with ML Defaults. I was sorely disappointed when I couldn't find Bos, Jean, Rowland, and co. :^/

They did that in last year's game. Some sponsors would add on a clause that would pay a substantial bonus, such as Player X (usually one of your best performers) winning MVP, Top Scorer, et cetera. Once you got your team ranking high enough to get a big sponsor like Nike (they gave me £17m...

I did an ML in 2010 using nothing but youth after the first few seasons. Lots of fun! With coaches and Youth Team maxed out, I'd get one crazy good player every three seasons or so, but usually two excellent prospects and a couple more solid squad players almost every year, who I'd typically...

That one wouldn't bother me. In my BALs with 2010, I played for the biggest clubs in the world, but never got an offer from the club I support, which really frustrated me. I would've loved the chance to make my name and/or finish my career with Villa, trying to lead them to PES glory, and...

God, I hope so! I was a DMF last year, and by the age of the 26, was the game's all-time Goal and Assist Leader, but not by choice! I've been planning on starting out as a CB this year, so life will be rough if it's still like it used to be. 8^|

Sounds like they've upped the realism this year!

You mean the hidden/classic players that you unlock (or I guess buy from the Shop in '11) and certain national team players? The former used to pop up in the Free Agents section at the end of the first season, while the latter came through as youth team players. I hope they haven't screwed up...

Yeah, what?! You can't sign free agents?

If it plays great, this is a non-issue for me. Makes the game more interesting, if anything.
