I'm a fairly conservative player as is, but I do like to mix it up as well. I get annoyed by the counter attack though, which basically contributes to the increase in poor "attack" and "retreat" animations.
Glad to hear. Make changes to the User and CPU? Or just User?
How are you getting on, man? Would love to hear how it's going in competition.
Yeah, the position role changes would be pretty essential imho. That reduces the chances of the instant attack/retreat by the midfielders, thus leaving gaping holes in the midfield.
I agree with you about PES of old being about stats. The issue that has plagued PES, even in the glory days, was positioning was never a priority. People must forget, but the PES of old was just as wide open, especially in the midfield, as it is now. The beauty of it was "on the ball", which is what PES 17 has given us a bit of a taste now. If only PES 17 focus was on player's attitude towards the ball, and the logic of being a footballer, they'd really recapture the PES players of old, and new.
Hey, bud. I knew you'd go back to PES 2013! It is indeed your favorite, and I don't blame you. I struggled returning to it because of the player models in general. They just started to get to me at some point. Who knows, maybe nostalgia will kick in and I will go on a tirade of Klash tactics, and gameplay edits
Agree with you on the off-the-pitch remarks, it is what it is, you know? I think they need to relaunch the entire concept of Football Life as well. It's just too much like a Japanese comic book still, and I feel we've all kind of grown up from that now. Give us statistics, give us presentation and give us realistic gameplay. The PES player is a hard user to please because we don't take any fluff whatsoever, I think this community brings that to the forefront even more as the KONAMI marketing starts to pull at those strings of nostalgia. They just failed at the fundamentals of the sport itself again, not by much, but enough that it's noticeable - and that's when it goes a tad downhill. Thankfully we can make some adjustments, tactically, to get things moving in the right direction, then living with the sacrifices to get a playable PES game this year.
I am glad to hear you are playing a lot more James! Yes, you're right, essentially the long ball is still a strong tactic, but it can be frustrating as the CPU creates nothing out of it. Even if a team has long ball as their tactic IRL, they still have shades/layers of "possession" as well. In PES, it's so automatic that there is literally no hiding what the tactic is. Even at the manager's instructions, players do not make it that obvious of what their gameplan is, from start to finish. That's what I had talked about earlier on in PES 17 release, and I begged Adam and Asim to take a look at the tactical adherence being at 100% (along with transition attack/defense), I can only imagine what an amazing game we would have on our hands if they had listened.
About Viudez, it was a mistake of "conversion", from the tools used to make stats to the in-game data probably, which gives on many players the same attributes (80 for most of them) in Ball Winning/Swerve/Finishing, it has been corrected in pes 2017;
shot? Is "Kicking power" related to "Lofted passes" while a defender clearing?
