Mornin,
I've been playing Pro Evo now since ISS Pro 98. There are some things that have always annoyed me about the series and some that have just cropped up in the next gen versions. Heres a list of the ones I can think of right now, in no particular order.
Kick Off Goals! It's a tense nil-nil game. You patiently breakdown your oppenents defence and finally score in the 89th minute. Only for the other team to run down the other end from a kick off and equalise because for some inexplicable reason it is realy easy to score straight from a kick off. It just is. The defence can't cope. And it happens against both human and computer players. And it has happened for as long as I can remember.
Inconsistant rubbish naff ref's. Perfectly good tackles judged as red card offences, disgraceful fouls not seen. Now some may argue that this happens in rea life etc., but not as often as in Pro. It's really annoying. Also, 8 out of every 10 slide tackles now lead to a foul.
Offsides aren't right on the new on either. Offside...replay...no it wasn't.
Emphasis on Pace is something that really annoys me on the next gen versions. If your team is fast,you win.
Player A.I is really, really bad on the newer versions. For example, a team is breaking against you with a fast winger but your fullback is tracking him and your CB is in the centre of the park. Under control yes? Wrong, because your CB will run out to the wing after the ball leaving a huge gap for the opposing CF to run in to. Cross. Goal. Defeat. Crying. Shouting at CB. Throwing of control.
Defenders also can not defend against the really good players in the game. This might sound like a weird complaint but its true. I understand that in real life Ronaldo puts defences to the sword. But on the new Pro it is all too easy to score 3 or 4 goals every game with Ronaldo in exactly the same way. The only way to stop him is to foul him. The same can be said of messi, eto, ibra, drogba and others. The gulf between the attakcers and defenders on the game is too big. I understand that talented players exist in real life but all to often a game of Pro Evo 2009 becomes a contest to see who can get the ball to their star player the quickest. It's no longer Barca vs Man U. It's Ronaldo vs Messi. The gulf is also too big between poor teams and good teams.
Defenders doing things they are not told to do-THE MOST ANNOYING THING ON THE GAME EVER. Players sliding when they are not told to do it.(AND USUALLY GIVING AWAY PENALTIES AND EARNING THEMSELVES A RED CARD) STOP IT. Defenders hoofing the ball up the park for no reason. STOP IT. Stop the players doing things they are not told to do because the A.I is rubbish and it will probably lead to a foul or the team givng the ball away. I HATE IT.
Goalkeepers have a tendency to do really silly things as well. Like throw the ball out of play or instead of smacking the ball up filed doing a slide and presenting it to the oppostion forward.
There are more but I think I'd better go before I collapse into a seething ball of rage.
Feel free to agree, disagree or add your own annoyances.
Thanks for Pro Evo though Konami I do Love it I promise.
Bye.
