PES 2009 Piggyback Guide

[MatTheCat]

Made the mistake of buying it yet again....

Tells u fuck all u didnt already know and also omits lots of things that u do know. Honestly, a whole raft of new moves and control functions are completely overlooked.

Save ur dosh kiddies.

i have always wondered what the point is with the piggyback guide, discovering the game for yourself is more enjoyable than reading how to play it.

Especially when the book dont even tell u how to play it.

For example, I haven't read about the fact that generally, a double tap of the shoot button ensures a lower more powerfully struck shot on goal. In the manual and even in the guide they are telling the kids press and hold for desired power, etc etc. But a quick glance thru any forum will ratify how many gamers are frustrated by the 'floaty' shooting. Their advice on crossing is just as bad/basic.....I wonder if they have even played the game prior to the guide being published. (probs not when u think about the time scales involved).

i haven't tried double tapping the shoot button that much but this is something i will use in future as like to use low shots(surprised they didn't mention this) especially with the precision shot as this could be effective. I personally find shooting much more of a challenge but i wouldn't describe it as floaty

Dont double tap with the R2 or RT 'precision shot'. Always double tap when u are wanting extra power and lower trajectory on basic shot.

you changed youre mind on manual passing yet

I don't get how shooting is "floaty."
Since when do real players hit the net every single time they shoot?

I think people that have difficulty playing this game and have spent little time on a real pitch will find FIFA a more enjoyable experience, as I find it to be extremely easy to get the hang of (as with most EA games).

i have never heard of double shooting tap i only new u could do it on crosses but when u do the double tap does the player acually get there hole body behind the ball and smash it or do they do that stupid shot when they side foot it and it floats and goes nowhere this type of shooting has only been invented in the ps3 versions it was on pes 2008 last year and it really annoying

I normally buy the guide but i was in two minds whether to buy it or the fallout 3 guide. Thanks for the up and also for making my mind up. Its going to be fallout 3 all the way.

I didn't know about the double tap shoot :fplm:

Just scored a hat-trick for Napoli in BAL thanks to that. Cheers.

You can pratice at the practice menu too. I learned quite a few things there.

 

[tatters13]

that double tap shoot sounds quality, migth have to give that a shot! (see what i did there...)

 

[arnold08]

err if I remember correctly doubletapping the shot button used to chip the ball over the goalie in the previous PES / WE games. not sure about this one as I haven't tried it

 

[willmo]

no thats shoot then just before he connects tap the run fast button and he will dink it over the on rushing keepers legs. quality!
