PES 2017 PlayStation & Xbox Discussion Thread

who else select both CBs as players to join attack? both CBs irl are always in the box for corners/near fks. i got the feeling im the only one who does this lol
No way I miss the chance to send the big guys up. I have all 2m of Van dijk from Southampton in my Myclub team up at corners and he is a menace for the opposition.

I couldn't be happier with the player individuality this year. You really feel those players that suit your style of play.

thing is i see youtubers/streamers they dont bother with this at all which is puzzling cos your CBs have the height and good header attributes. what i like to see next version (or even better patched) is if your CB(s) are selected to join attack they will also do so in a fk situation in the opposition's final third, not only for corners. atm they dont, unless you crank up your attack mentality to max (i think)
 
Can i use the 1 & 3 to give feedback to officialpes on twitter? You wrote it better than i could :).

Of course mate!
Be my guest :)
Number 2 might be due to my defensive line probably, have to check on that further.
But 1 and 3 are definite issues.

Semi Final of the Champions League 0-0...


WTF?? That's great, dude!
Knuckle shot?

i dont like the keeper doing nothing. sure its slomo but even i would have made a step to the right side. sorry, but the keeper looks kinda silly in this one...
 
Now that I see it, you're right.
It looks awkward.

Man this game is so good that it's painful not having enough time to play it.
My regular day schedule keeps me so busy with wife and kids that it really itches me to play a few games but I can't.

A whole week?
Man, I envy you.
I guess I gotta bring the macho out of me :p.

Btw,
I joined the evo web community on PS4.
How does it work? Can you play against someone who's online there?

yeah. pretty much the last days of vacation this year! another week in october and thats it.
looking forward to play PES and AC next week. i'll buy some nice food and drinks, clean my flat and then its play time!

i'm still waiting on Glen's OF to be finished. have the EPL from him but want the other leagues to be perfect to, especially the bundesliga! is he doing second german league too?

I am finding a few of my CBs are wondering upfield with serious intent pique style. Not sure if there is a player card attribute that's causing this. It could be that extra front man one. I wish i had more time to edit and finally play.
 
Also a few pages back someone was moaning about the crossing... i rarely score from them. He was using Banes and Lukaku so thats a valid tactic... he would score from crosses... i use teams that rarely cross.. i try too but im just not set up for it. Its tactics man!!

I've been scoring from a lot of crosses on Master League but I've got 2 tall players up front and I've got advanced instructions set to attacking fullbacks and centre target so...............................
 
I'm really haing some great games in Master League>15 min games>Top Player>PA1
If you just take the time to slow attacks down you see some brilliant off the ball movement and variety in play.
There's plenty of basic improvements in this years game to make matches play the way I want them to and I can't remember many, if any instances, where my players have been "locked" into a certain run that I haven't been able to super cancel out of. Even things as basic as blocking shots just feel right.

Unfortunately, Konami being Konami, there are also plenty of aspects which have needed fixed for a number of years now (imo) which haven't been touched.

1. Slide tackling is a big issue for me, specifically the distance the players slide. I generally don't use the slide tackle button very much but when I do, I always seem to give away free kicks for late challenges because my player continues to slide, long after the opposing layer has played the ball. There shoud be some sort of A.I intelligence where the defender pulls out of a challenge or the attacking player skips over the tackle instead of falling to the groud in a heap.

2. Custom camera angles. WTF is going on here!? The options were pretty poor last year but there's even more camera angles options locked this year. I hate the default cameras and playing online is even more restricted in this area.

3. Horrible turfs. I know some people have mentioned last years were perfect but, personally I thought 90% of them were awful too. I was hoping for a big improvement this year but the pitches have taken a couple of steps backward.

4. The issues with online matches have been well documented, but why isn't there the option to quit a a game early in the match if the connection is unstable and laggy or you're fed up playing against Real Madrd for instance?

5. Shielding the ball when in possession is really quite poor. I've lost count of the amount of times I've had a player dispossessed from behind, regardless of how strong they are. My player then locks into that horrible stumbling animation which has been in the game for years. In the odd occassion that my player does shield the ball, he is locked into this animation for a second or 2 which then allows an opposing player to rob me of the ball from in front.

6. When defending corners I'v noticed that often my tall defenders are marking players outside of my penalty area and I have to manually move them into the box.

7. First time 180 degree lofted throughballs just shouldn't be possible.

8. Edited stadiums don't work for CPU controlled teams in Master League

9. I've yet to see a shot from the A.I hit, or go over, the bar

10. Although I'm really liking the crossing and heading this year, it's perhaps becoming a method to score which is a little too succesful. I think defenders should be winning SLIGHTLY more of these than they currently do.

11. I've conceded more than a few rebound goals in my Master League so far which is a little concerning.

Overall, outwith the online side of the game, PES2017 is a very enjoyable game (so far) but with just a few minor improvements could be so much better.
 
i agree on points 5 10 and 11

I play on superstar and have been really enjoying the ML I have seen the AI blast a few over the bar its usually from first time shots outside the box it goes wide mostly but a couple over the top and seen then hit the top corner post but like you no shots off the cross bar except from headers

when I mess around in friendly games or free training you can see the CPU stadium edits and it makes me gutted you dont have them in ML it adds a good bit of immersion in my opinion. As far as im concerned they have removed the feature to save memory space because they are refusing to answer it on twitter thats what really gets me how they brush things under the carpet hopeing it goes away terrible attitude

every year they take a feature away when will they ever learn
 
I'm waiting for an OF with a complete Bundesliga either.
Would love one with the 2nd Bundesliga in it.
According to PESGALAXY it might take until November.
I'm looking forward
 
I feel like a total idiot for complaining this game is too easy on Top Player. So far in my Premier League campaign as Arsenal I have won 2, drawn 2, lost 8.

I just wish I had more time to play. With a wife and child that demand constant attention, I'm knackered by the time I get to play for only around 30 mins each night. I have 8 unopened games that I'll probably never get around to (The Last of Us, Uncharted 4 etc).
 
I play at superstar, I cross quite a bit and I don't see all this heading goals to be honest. Maybe at top player the CPU defends a little more loosely?

Which Leagues are you interested in doing Goalgerd?


South/North America, Bundesliga, Europa League and Champions League, Celtic League and Classic Teams, basically want a file you can play tournaments with your mates with like we used to 10 years ago, will also work on the gameplay if an editor is made

It was 20 years ago for me . . .getting on a bit .. .where's me slippers?
 
My main frustration is the CPU A/D Levels. Get the ball, ATTACK! Lose the ball, DEFEND!

If only they had listened to me about the CPU A/D levels transitioning properly. Because right now, long ball tactics for example, the CPU gets it, sends a long ball immediately to their forward/midfielder. The thing is, the ball isn't into space, it's directly to the head, whether it's a 6'2 forward or a 5'7 midfielder, the ball is sent up.

Oh well, other than that, the game is great. But I can see why there are comments about the game against the CPU being predictable and repetitive. Wish we could figure out what the triggers of the A/D Level are, and how can it get an in-between (green) level.

They could patch it yet Matt . .. they've done it before.
