It would be interesting to know what size transfer budget and more importantly, what size wage budget this was achieved with. Starting with the default PES players, I had a wage budget of £300k to play with. Ditto. It felt like an achievement not being relegated and I've never had that...

Yeah, it was the OfficialPES Twitter feed that stated that they had not altered gameplay. Very odd, as I had suddenly found finishing much harder than usual, despite my forwards not being out of form. Specifically, some very wayward headers leading to the following run of ML results on my first...

The question is though, are these changes all in our minds or are they real? Konami say that they have not tweaked the gameplay. :confsed:

I'm certainly not looking to have the Team Spirit raising roles in all positions, as that would mean I wouldn't have some of the other important roles. I like to have a Leader/General somewhere in the defence. I think I have Fighting Spirit and Team Player roles as well in the midfield. I...

Well 99 was the highest I saw last year, so it probably is the maximum this year. I like that you need players of a certain role to hit the highest possible.

No long range screamers yet (apart from one from about 22 yards, which Buffon tipped wide), but I have two midfielders set quite far back. One as a DM and the other as a CM. I found out early on that I needed this more in PES 2017 than I did in PES 2016, in order to stop the opposition having...

They're not scripted goals if you can learn how to avoid conceding them. :D Having just watched the real Crystal Palace throw caution to the wind in when chasing the game against Liverpool, it shows that those moments when a team clicks for a few distinct attacks do happen. Essentially, players...

That would be interesting and could explain why some people find Superstar to be easier than others. Not me though with my current squad I hasten to add. Aside from the Youth Prospects and Protege players, I have a couple of Leaders, a Team Player, a Rising Star and a Creator. I'm definitely...

You might want to be aware that when valencia5 says he was winning the ball easily with X even when his Team Spirit was in the 30s, he has stated earlier that he didn't start his ML game on Superstar. He began two notches down, then played matches on Top Player for a while before finally moving...

Your defenders are pretty much exactly the same OVR as mine. I've specifically chosen them based on their core Ball Winning and Defensive Prowess though, as well as their age. I have a selection of defenders who are all youngsters and most with good team roles. So if you have wingbacks like...

Yep. I went from Team Spirit in the 30s in August of my first season to 92 Team Spirit at the end of my first season. This second season had a small dip to 78 Team Spirit as I brought in a few more players and has taken most of a season again to rise to 92 again. In PES 2016, Team Spirit...

That sounds interesting. I haven't had any 'big' games yet, though I'm almost guaranteed play-off matches this year. Also, no rival team matches yet as I'm playing ML with Liverpool in the Championship. I've got to say that the opposition didn't ever seem to get a boost in PES 2016 from big cup...

Hi, what players are you playing with in ML? The default ones with Castledine and Arqas etc? If so, then yes, the defence is dire and I agree that you don't just win the ball by holding X or []. Getting the best quality defenders you can is a must. You gotta love super cancel. R1&R2 together...

I was quoting you, so there was no misunderstanding. :cool: Ah, now what you are saying works, as you are only suggesting that the younger players in the first half of their careers will have their transfer fees drastically rise. I think we both agree that the reason Konami allow us to...

How do you get on with the same match-ups in Exhibition mode? ML incorporates Team Spirit where Exhibition mode doesn't. You can either do as you have done and drop a level until games start to get too easy and then raise it again. Or battle through the dip like a real manager has to. Depending...

I was suggesting that you might be over exaggerating for effect and you did state that "all these guys sold for over double at least". Which clearly wasn't the case at all. :innocent: As for the game, there are plenty of holes and areas for it to improve. I'm not looking to defend the game...

Ummm, only Bale went for double those figures (Suarez was close) now that the dollar is as strong as it is. Also, young players with sell on value often go for inflated prices (I'm looking at you Sterling). At 27, Suarez value is only going to decrease from this point, however great a player he...

Clearly you were given a reasonable salary budget to achieve that squad in the first transfer window. To get a proper challenge, you might want to try the default PES team, where you start with about £300K of extra salary budget. That puts the handbreak on as far as assembling a 4.5* team for a...

I had this at first. If you are finding Exhibition to be fine but ML to be hard, then it is most likely to do with your "Team Spirit" stat. If that is below about 85, your players will not play to the best of their ability. I made way too many changes in the initial transfer window and Team...

The only time I find it unrealistic in PES is when you are clean through with a fast player and Huth or Mertesacker catches you up. :huh: However, in the dribbling around the edge of the box with a defender covering you, I think it's about right. If the attacker accelerates into a space, the...
