Tbh, I have never found any of these 'tactical' options useful, with the exception of actual formation changes. For when your team begin to play badly i.e. when everything periodically becomes extremely inconsistent (which I put down to scripting) then nothing works - it's one of the biggest...

I only tested it briefly during PES 14 and as far as memory serves me I was only using R-stick but are probably right. I tested to see whether it would help a friend, who wanted to perform tricks but is a lazy shit, in the end he was even too lazy for that. But I do remember things being a...

16 looks good but has no soul, and a game needs soul. I'll stick with 15 for the time being.

Yea I loved when Brackley commented on PES, him and Brian Moore were my fav commentators.

That's the first thing I did, game still feels wishy-washy, like I'm skating a little, dare I say it feels a little like early FIFA (circa 2008, honestly go check the videos!). Shooting is just mundane. I press button, I score, doesn't matter where I am or what I'm eating, even got my dog to...

With auto-feint - You use R-stick and a trick happens - it would be nice to think it is in relation to your direction etc, but under testing (I don't care what the instructions say because half the time most of the stuff doesn't work - particularly the tactical commands) I've arrived at the...

It is a bit too fast and as Ratmonkey pointed out the shooting is actually boring - and the defensive side suffers horribly as a result of the This is Football animation style. Everything seems a little too frantic but it looks good and plays well, if this makes sense.

It's ridiculously easy to do tricks in 16, just get close to the defender (take your finger off sprint helps^^) but you can also have great success pre-empting tricks (or starting the combination process before the ball lands at your feet - this is great for getting you out of tight spots if the...

Lol - a bit like Chelseas ^^

Here are some examples of combination control with R2... I didn't have to go through all my replays, when I have more time I will pick out nice specifics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdDvgQ9tZow (fakey) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqhHlA5eKzU (Stick-in control @ 0:11+ this is...

I do agree there, the pace is certainly slower. Can I ask what your favourite PES was/is? Personally I have 4 (given the context they were in)...so the order looks like this... ISS Pro Evo I & II, then PES 2008, then 2013 and now 2015 but overall if I had to pick one then it would be 15...

Yes you're right Ratmonkey, it is slow and it seems rather clunky at first so it would appear to not seem that useful at the start but the important thing to know is that these elements of close-control are situational and understanding when you can use them only comes from experience (and...

Sorry you never mentioned which PES so I assumed you were referring to them on the whole. Also to Ethan have you combinations of R2 and the R-stick with pressing in the L-stick? I think this is really where close-control in 15 shines. Add to this a quickly lined up shot and you will see some...

I have to disagree a little about what Ratmonkey said about R2 being useless... I find it quite devastating when used properly. See below links for an example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGjtbv2vjtI (long view) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_EAetrv3mk (close view)...

Although this (opinion) is completely subjective, you realize I'm talking about the PC version right? On top of that, did you even read the review? Your blanket response would suggest otherwise for if you had indeed read it then you would note that the main point I made was that bits have...

Thanks for your kind words on my writing ability. Sticking with the game though, I'd like to mention that each and every PES game as far back as PES 2008 suffers from a bad case of split personality, as I'm confident most who have had experience playing all modes would have noticed. But...

Hi Parkinfed, The shooting has been redone, which makes you wonder do they (Konami) ever want to build on something? Seems they don't. There is pretty much no differences between Basic and Advanced shooting in 16, whereas in 15 if you changed to basic there was a noticeable difference in the...

I love PES, but up to a point. PES 16 isn't a new game, it should have been but it isn't. It feels like a stand alone patch for 15 because it would appear that all Konami have done is simply remove some of the good parts of 15 and add some of the missing things from 15 and voila you have PES...

Or maybe so few people play the PC version.

I've played both FIFA 16 and PES 16 (on the PC) and I have problems with both, but I do feel there are less restrictions in PES. I don't automatically dislike a game but I do have a memory so if a series doesn't impress me over time then I usually assume that won't change and that may create a...
