FIFA off the ball runs or PES through ball

[wr50l]

What's your favourite. I personally think that FIFA's off the ball runs are better than PES through pass because the through pass hardly ever works.

 

[gollan]

whadyya mean never works?
What do you try to do?
Does the opposition get the ball?

 

[wr50l]

My idots try it and it either goes towards the wrong player or straight to the defender. And it is definately not because of my players because I have Nedved, Pires and Zidane, all capable of putting through a good ball, well they should be.

Through passes in WE7-Int (Jap) are very very good.
Zidane-esque.

I agree. They are much better.

I hate fifas off the ball system, i find that the through balls in pes OR we r pretty gd.........actually i think they r excellent, as no matter how good zidane or pires is, they dont get it right everytime

 

[Harry-Kewell]

They’re both 2 different moves, so how can you even compare them?

What's your favourite.

He asked whats ur favourite, not the best 1, just whichever 1 you prefer I suppose

PS. Houllier to go!!!

If they don't work, it's 'cause you're doing it wrong. You've got to know when a :x: pass will be sufficient instead of a :triangle: through ball. Also, don't forget that there's the manual pass which can be deadly with a little practise. Does the :R1: + :triangle: different through ball still work?

 

[Waiting For Incoming]

Yep the through passes in WE7I Jap are good

 

[Giggsy11]

Through Pass is better and you musn't be any good, The thru pass works a treat for me, You just need to know how and when to use it and not to use it for every attack, The off the ball control works well but it is very hard to control 2 players at once without getting tackled.

I rented FIFA and hated the whole thing, especially the off the ball shit which was marketed as the best aspect of the game.

I found it too hard to use cos while you're trying to control someone else the player with the ball runs all over the place. The through ball over the top is really useful in pes3, especially if you use the radar to your advantage you can cut defences to pieces.

 

[Giggsy11]

Yeah The sheer amount of skill moves in pes3 is just amazing I think its one of the most impressive aspects of the game

 

[Foxhound]

i prefer through ball

 

[Jasper]

first look at the radar then if a defender is there use the chipped through ball

 

[AfroJoe]

The thing is, PES has been doing off the ball for years. Effectively. Without needing to use pointless trademarks or over-the-top advertisements.

 

[That_was_not_a_foul!]

anyone played FIFA2002? that had a great system, it made the players run instead of standing still watching you, if that was combined with the throughball in PES it could be deadly

 

[jackass]

Fifa OTB system is pants, u hav 2 press bout a 4 buttons to activate it, then u hav 2 b able 2 use 5 controls at once to avoid on coming players and to send the OTB player forward

 

[CtrlAltDel]

fifa2002 was perfect example of something i'd like to see in PES/WE

a button you press that sends the other members of your team on runs
something that you can only simulate with a give-and-go/one-two type pass with WE/PES.

pressing a button and having players run into space BEFORE you have to pass them the ball would be a great addition, as it would open up many things.

through balls can sometimes be unreliable especilly wen you've worked hard to get the ball 2 the attack and its wasted by pressin triangle
