Frustrated?

I was quite confused by this as I think one of the best things about the Konami games is the very short game loading times.

What does anyone think?

8 hours a day? I think "play PES2 all the time" must be a literal meaning, then. I suppose if there's quite a few of them, and they do a lot of playtesting, then perhaps. But 8 hours seems excessive to me. Plus they probably count the PS2 loading screens as well, even though these are on all games.

I have played fifa (many years ago) and TIF which both have awfully long loading times. Just another great reason for preferring the PES/WE games.

Or another reason NOT to like FIFA

How long untill Konami can bid for FIFA license ?

that magazine is then crap when they say something like that. There are almost no loadings and when its load its very short in pes.

 

[Zygalski]

Exactly.
Maybe they have a duff PS2...

8 hours seems a bit over dramatic. I wonder what the the game is like or maybe the electricity is refusing to keep on working :/.

Who knows.

 

[Zygalski]

Hamster-driven generators?

 

[Gooner_Harmer]

No thats too smart for them.

What mag was this by the way?

 

[Zygalski]

I can't really remember.
I was in WHSmith checking them all out.
If I see it again, will let you know.
It may have been in the letters section but I am not sure.

Ok well I never buy mags anyway, way to expensive and i'm clean skint after buying my mates a chinese and tickets for the Matrix.

DO you ever buy the mags?

 

[Zygalski]

I used to but not in a while.
When there are reviews for PES3, I'll buy one then.

 

[Lisbon67Seville03]

and that wont be for a while...right??? and by the way, maybe they mean like, they had to wait 8 hours to get their own turn because so many people wanted to play that it is actually that degree of "in-demand"

 

[Zygalski]

No, it clearly said 'loading times'.

 

[Lisbon67Seville03]

thats so strange. loading times are what set PES apart from the other games! i dint think there were any loading times, are there?

 

[Zygalski]

I and others agree with you. The loading times are great.

Maybe they were talking about fifa instead...

 

[Lisbon67Seville03]

will the new PES have loading times perhaps? lets hope not...

lob ball problems

The problem I have is sometimes i want to pass a long ball forward (diagonal pass), and my player ends sending the ball to his own half.. its soo annoying.. then there are sometimes that you can pass the ball normally,,, it is just me, a gamepad problem, or a game setting that I have to correct?? please help.

hitting the post?!?! whys the post 5m thick???? i get more shots hitting the post than getting it wide.......

 

[cumbuckit]

also, i like the new handball rule, but it happens TOO often! like it averages 2-3 per game, its ridiculous!!! but then... i still haven't seen a handball which gave a penalty.... didn't konami test the game b4 releasing it?!?!
