Take over the CPUs tactics/formation

[socrates]

I was wondering if anyone found it useful that you can change teams mid-game in PES3 via 'player settings', and alter the CPU teams formation, make substitutions etc, than switch back to your own team. Very useful if CPU gets a player sent off - you can make the CPU behave in a more tactically 'realistic' manner.

And for those of you who want to get quick PES, just switch to CPU team, bang in a few own goals in a 5min game and go make yourself a cuppa. I've never resorted to this myself but it's nice that in PES3 we get the ability to switch sides, you can also check out opposition stamina levels, get their defenders to man-mark your strikers, or generally adjust CPU tactics to make the game more challenging.

I tend to set CPU to 'auto-attack' while they're playing at home, and normal or auto-defend when they're playing away.

I think this is a great new feature of PES3 - anyone else think so?

I believe it is now possible to switch teams during friendlies. I'd never do that though....of course.

You should do.

I don't use this to play as the other side either..more just 'pause game, switch teams, make adjustment to CPU formation, switch back to my own team, unpause game', so I'm just altering their tactics/formation . It's really just to make up for some of the deficiencies in the CPUs tactical AI sometimes.

i agree... this feature is very important so that we can make the game more challenging by adjusting the CPU's tactics and make it more realistic....instead of tottenham putting on a player called KERR while kanoute and postiga are on the bench!!

but u cant do it in every competition
