I would probably play something like Netherlands' default formation but with an offensive twist: RB-----CB-----CB------LB ------CM-------CM------- -------RooneyAMF-------- CRonRWF--------GiggsLWF ----------V.N.CF--------- Put the CM's with forward and back arrows and the whole team on...

Here is a site that tracks and ranks the internationals based on ELO ranking, which is what they use in chess; it is weighted to the ELO ranking of your opponent, etc. I'm sure there are flaws, but it seems a much better system than Fifa's. http://www.eloratings.net/ Scroll down a bit for...

Oh my goodness; praise to the guy who started a thread about issues with PES5 without framing it by saying it's the worst game of all time! I agree about the fouling, it's a little over the top. Too many crappy fouls, which is a pain in the ass when you're through on goal. Even if you are able...

Ronaldo is over rated, I think Konami tend to put out a lot of respect in the stats for stars who were one day ridiculously good. Robben needs some touch-ups I agree... obviously many of the young players are underrated, like Messi and etc. Rooney actually seems pretty good as far as ratings...

PES4 is a lot more arcade like. PES5 is as flowing as you want to be and allows for styles of play other than the cynical 'do-the-move-and-score-the-goal' over and over. PES5 is more organic and emphasizes passing and formations more. Longballs are now useful. Defenders are back on par with...

There are no flaws unless you are bringing in unfounded expectations to the game. If you play it for what it is, there's nothing to worry about. As far as I can see, most of the issues described in the OP are very much player issues.

It doesn't help that these 'flaws' are presented in the context of 'PES being the WORST GAME EVER' and other such nonsense. If someone came here and posted a thread saying "Hey, I noticed such and such doesn't work very well" he wouldn't get flamed. People that come to whine about the game...

Tackling skill? There is a slide tackling ability star if that's what you mean. To my knowledge the Offense and Defense skills increase the speed of their relevant animations. A player with 99 defense would step and slide tackle very quickly.

If you think Ronaldinho is seen as good just because he is a 'fancy dribbler' and 'fun to watch' or whatever... I don't know what to say. Ronaldinho has more impact in a game than any other player I've watched in this decade. Rooney can be considered a more all around player if you are talking...

My copy (North American) doesn't have that, and it was released just this past month (Feb). Anyway the only thing that tees me off is the difference in dates. The new WE10 is set to come out in April currently; if that's true and they also release the American version at the scheduled time...

I think you'll have to make a copy of one of those players and then edit them to change them into yours.

He's evidently asking if you can make other players go on runs without passing the ball. To my knowledge, you can't. There is the hold L1 or R2 after passing, but that's about all I know, other than using L2+ a manual strategy to change the way players move. Manual strategies might accomplish...

Go into training mode to try this. WE9's is kickass now with the ability to basically replay the same couple of seconds over and over. Just take a shot, then replay it as many times as you like to see what different things do!

I think you made a mistake in your second explanation, saying that going right to left you'd have to shoot northwest or northeast when you probably mean northwest or southwest.

I am not so sure you can aim shots manually.

I think the defender momentum thing is fine; from playing with friends it seems to me that defense and offense are pretty fairly balanced in this version. When defending a guy who's trying to cross, for example, it's all about the guessing games: when to be conservative and shimmy with R2, when...

"On higher difficulties the computer ALWAYS has EVERY man covered so you cant make a clean pass... hence my argument for shitty AI. " The AI is fine (well it isn't outstanding but nothing to do with these reasons) ... but it isn't there to babysit you. You need to add some attacking arrows in...

Yeah, same here... I can actually see where frustration comes from, because even after playing the game for months I often accidently do the old R1 push or even the R1+R2 super push out in front when I receive a pass in the box, ruining the play. Holding R2 works wonders in the box though...

There is no such thing as a "playing style" in WE8, so I don't understand what you're talking about. Perfect passing and smaller body / ball physics means that formations don't matter, longballs don't matter, all that matters is the cynical 1-2 dribble dribble turn backward, turn forward, turn...

I think basically it makes stumbling less likely.
