aenaos Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Oh..I was so good player at pes 6 pc..Used to take easy wins in online and made exciting games with tough opoennts..alwasy was so sure and comfortable with my defence..it was so solid..so strong..Opoents couldnt score more than 1 goals usually and the most times they didnt even score.ut now..Now my secondd online game was a disaster..lost 0-4 from a player whoo even scored with a foul.. i am so disapointed from my defending behavior!!I must to rethink some parts of my game..Starting with a new formation..These players who will ll catch konamis philososphy about defence will dominate the online!!!But also attach isnt the easiest even now i fell much more comfortable..i have big problem to score when play in 4/5 dificulty mode..
LeeWii Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 I must say I'm impressed with the new attacking mechanics, but, like others on here, I'm still a bit iffy defensively. I just tend to man mark everyone and pray. Finally grasped the offside trap too. Started Champs Road with Ajax, and am 2 games into my second tournament (English and Western European clubs or something). Haven't got that many good players from it: -Sulejmani -Oper -Loohuis -Mears -Kah And a few others who I can't remember.

darksnowman Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 The commentary, provided by Peter Brackley and Mark Lawrenson, is as dire as ever. Lol, so I take it they played the game without listening to it...?

BeerMonkey Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 yea ill hang on for that i think then so can read your thoughts etc on it
IMJ Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I've played this game for the first time this weekend. I was quite excited to see how it played and controlled. I knew I was in for a tough learning curve. You really have to switch off the button between your ears of how to control the players on the field. It's quite different how to pass, walk and play overall. Having spent a few matches with a friend, I can say I really see the potential this system has. If you get the hang of it, the attacking game becomes a work of art. It's really beautiful. So far, I have to think to often and too long, messing everything up. Defending really is this game's weak point. I feel out of control when defending. I just keep in clicking and pointing, hoping one of the players goes towards the attacking player. I'm really thinking of purchasing this title and sink my teeth into it. Learn it. Enjoy it.
dazzybee Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 This game is incredible and gets better and better the more you play. I'm even beginning to really appreciate the defensive controls! I NEVER thought I'd say that. Absolutely love it. I have a few niggles though they may be eradicated after more play; I'll air my negative thoughts in a few days if they're still there. It's one of those games that is so different, you have to give plenty of time to time to let everything sink in.

K-project Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Well, in spite of saying I wouldn't buy it, I caved in yesterday. So far....really impressed, but it's going to take time. There's no two ways about it, you're going to have to tune yourself into it after years of dual analogue fun. There's very little that you could honestly call "intuitive". Only time and commitment will improve your skills I reckon. It's real strength is the passing game. It's so flexible and is the most simple thing to do in the game. Thank heavens for being able to finally pass into space properly and have players make their runs onto the ball. It just works so well. Less straightforward is defending, which I'm having some problems with, but I'm finding that once I target an attacker with the A button and send in my swarms, as long as I keep tapping the Z trigger they will try to get the ball. The difficulty is doing all that while keeping a close eye on everything else! Bit disappointed with the shooting. They could still have kept the power bar for the nunchuck swing. Then again, it is still as snappy as it's always been. Overall though I'm really glad I got it, and look forward to sinking my teeth into it. There'll definitely be things for the PES team to address for the next version, but the nice thing about starting with this kind of radical gameplay is that it just seems so flexible. They'll find no end of things to tweak in the years to come.
Cookyman Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Where is the Mii mode in this game I've unlocked it apparently but cant find the damn thing!
ThePigMarcher Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Never been a fan of the sport but the mostly positive feedback on here makes me think I may have to give this a rent/look.
dazzybee Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 ANyone up for some online tonight? PS Yeah flame I thought I had the much better chances for goals, just didn't put them away. And you scored in the 87th minute!!! Devastated I didn't know how to slide tackle or Z defending then though, now would be a different story
MF Luder Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 There's a couple of tutorial videos for defence and attack on youtube. I haven't got the game yet but they look pretty useful!
