Directional Button or Left Analogue Stick?

[Slat3]

Triggle beef I think that you will come to like the game over time .

To give yourself more options play around with the tactics abit a set the controller support to manual for A/D levels .

You should see the players making all sort of runs if you get your tactics right. They will come short if you make them attack back .

As for the controller I use the left anlogue as it is less painful after 12 hours of playing .

You can set it on Fifa so you use the D-pad. I've done it, in fact i've set the controls to match Pro Evo's.

How? I set the control scheme to 'new' or whater it's called so thet the button config mached PES, but it still required stick input for direction...

Have a missed a further option on control settings?

It's pretty easy mate. In the controller config screen, you just swap the left analog stick with the d-pad, meaning you control your player with the d-pad and set tactics with the analog stick.

Back to Pro Evo. So Slat, you're saying that if i make the attack arrows point back they will come towards me to get the ball, rather than running for cover as if i'm kicking a live grenade? Do you do this for your forwards and entire midfield, or just your central midfielders? And i'm not sure what you mean by "set the controller support to manual for A/D levels". Do you mean giving yourself full control over the 5-position bar above the player name? I used to control this years ago but never have in recent times. If this is what you mean, is it good to switch it to defensive when you've got the ball in your own half, to bring players closer, and then bang it on attack when you're deep in your oppenents half?

Can't beat the sony pad for footy games. I'm so glad they didn't change it for the PS3 as was first feared.

Yep i agree...

ive used the D-pad for allll the pro evo games, the analogue just doesnt feel right.

When i use the analogue stick it feels as though I'll lose the ball everytime i get it

hold Y ( triangle for ps3) straight after the power bar goes up 4 a free kick or hold A (X for ps3) for closer freekicks

What I usally do is play my defensive very deep with two defensive midfielders I control the manual A/D depending on what team I am up against Bara / Man I might drop it one because of Ronaldo/Messi/Tevez/Eto all those players are very hard to win the ball off of .

Now for attack you could just use lmf/rmf and but them both attack arrows then have a ss or amf attacking back and forward with your striker have two attacking arrows one to the left one to the right .

This all might seem pointless but when playing online I have got great results against the best sides . Learn how not to press x and just follow a players movement when defending . When you have the ball you would see the players move into good positions for the pass.

Btw I have two defensive arrows on both Dmf and they give your defenders great support . I hope this helps .

D-Pad all the way. I also find it just as easy to perform a 360 on D-Pad and it's quicker to perform the other tricks. Never feels like I'm in complete control with the stick.

Cheers boss. i will give this a try. I'm gonna go for 4-3-3. 2 DM's with arrows pointing backa and an AM with Arrow's pointing side ways and back. We'll see how that works.

I use, and always will use, the D-pad for PES.

In Madden, for example I use the left analog stick...
