cpu skills

[wr50l]

Has anybody ever had the computer doing skills against you, like the sidestep, 360 turn etc.

 

[707junglist]

yep, all the time. mostly stepovers and sidesteps though. some overhead flicks too, but can't recall any cpu 360's.

I have yet to see a 360.

seen bothfoot feint, sidestep, backheel, Ronaldo's Elastico move, etc.

elastico move....whats that.flick over the head??

 

[earlybird]

The only "skill" they seem to do most of the time is to put 8 players in defence and hold out for a 0-0. That should be addressed in the next game. Fair enough, if you're playing against Italy, but Brazil & Man City (??) should be all out attack.

I apologize, see I have this vivid imagination and while playing WE7 I point out to myself, "see, that's basically such and such skill."

Let's say you are running from left to right -->

As the defender approaches you, at the last moment - a split second before he commits to a challenge/tackle - have you swung the analog stick either up+right or down+right?

It's subtle I know, but it does resemble the move Ronaldo made famous where he lulls the ball (and defender) one direction with the outside of his boot and suddenly snaps it back the other direction with the inside of his foot as he plants it.

I absolutely abuse this ability with Ronaldinho. I love it. I guess he's got his version now where he kicks it up in the air a foot or so when executing it. The Nike Ole commercial, for example.

Have you actually tried that move in real life? Beats the defender every single time.
Guaranteed to get booted next time you get the ball though!
Stepovers have never worked for me, but I had to mark a young lad earlier this season who was like a cross between C.Ronaldo & Denilson. Unbelievably quick feet.

Unfortunately no. I miss soccer. I left it like a fool for basketball and football. You couldn't find 2 people in my whole city who would want to get together for footie once a year, much less 2-3 times a week.

I would enjoy permanent residence in Europe greatly.

Can you send us a replay of you doing this move please? And is this only for WE7i or also PES3

I had to mark this fella who had all the tricks a couple of week ago, but straight after doing a stepover or anything else I'd manage to get a foot in and tackle him. He could do anything he liked, 360s, stepovers etc... but I'd always tackle him. But then whenever he just dropped a shoulder and went the other way he'd go past me every single time because I was anticipating some fancy stepover or something! Really annoying and made me look like a shit defender!

I bet that sucked! I once marked a pacey left winger who could dribble for England. He was a pain in the arse. Everytime you went for a tackle, he'd skip away from you!
