Replication of Barcelona under Guardiola from 2010 - 12.

Note that I change Neymar from SS to LWF. This is very important as otherwise the players seem to be all over the place. Not too sure what is causing that. Either way, use his wide positioning to create lots of one vs one dribbling opportunities and he'll still score a bunch (trust me).

Figured I'd post it here as I'll more than likely be using this for ML save once I get round to playing tomorrow.

@ianni figured I'd tag you.

Same here mate,watching cooking shows instead:)
Default teams could be very very tough,even a my Milan is a struggle,think TP is a good level.
Superstar is a nightmare,not at first,but after a while...

Thank you so much. Maybe you can open a thread about tactics from other teams. Sacchi, Ancelotti at Madrid...

Only if you like the idea, of course. Thanks again for your work :D

I like that idea, I'll have to see if I can open a thread and start stockpiling people's suggestions etc. I can definitely tackle Sacchi and Ancelotti at Madrid.

No need for thanks, the game is a blast so I had loads of fun with the trial and error games.
 
I am seriously struggling with the defaults. Losing pretty badly most games. won 1, drawn 1, lost 4 and i'm playing on professional :CONFUSE:

Tried all sorts with tactics but nothing's giving. Players are SO slow and their touches are horrific. Gonna be a long season.

I feel you mate,had exactly the same trouble,but team spirit and strenght goes up,find a solution to your problems
1 not Creating enough? See how many you attack with? Their position? your tactics?
Try to analyse your problem and you'll find a solution.

Check out Matts fix in the Ps4 and Xbox thread,that's very good advice.
And yeah,I go between prof and top player,so I know how it feels.
Think of it this way,if the game is this tough,it'll last;)
Hang in there
 
I ran out of spaces for team kits . . .why are they putting in a 3rd kit for some teams? . . .. it's taking up space.

Top player, advanced shooting, PA1. I know it's not full manual and the other team is not that strong, but... Wtf this is magic. Oh, 0-7 in 45 mins, not full match...

And I'm not on a ML but on a Premier League only. It includes cups and Europa League (wth City in EL...) :D

Well, that's impressive! 45 mins to be proud of.

Was testing in LaLiga with Barcelona to create it, the best result I managed was a 9-0 drubbing of Deportivo. Top Player, 15 mins match. Hopefully you can beat my result!

Nah I couldn't, got defensive so players won't get too tired.

I'm not that sure... Had a bad exp when I set Superstar and PSG got me like 3-0 and I was Madrid in Champions League... Maybe in a few weeks :D

EDIT: Maybe this year we can get the 'Bridge system' that Ancelotti created at Madrid and the 22 victories in a row. I know is spanish and maybe complex, but that gameplan... I loved it: http://www.ecosdelbalon.com/2014/10...juego-real-madrid-carlo-ancelotti-como-juega/

EDIT2: Arsenal vs City. 0-4 first half. 93 % pass, 66 % possession, since min 34 I'm playing with 10 because Fernando got booked off (finally a red card in PES... so proud. Really). This gameplan is DOPE. I hope you can do some Guardiola's Bayern :_)

I'm so gonna get fucking fired soon.
Can't buy a win,it's unbelievable

1-1 vs Sampdoria at home.
Went 1-0 up on a corner,Antonelli.
Then late first half,Cassano curled it from the left edge of the box,just a few cm above the grass post in.
Applied pressure for the rest of the game,ended 1-1.

Pescara away.
First day game btw (think Milan plays a lot of night games irl)
Got 1-0 down on a sloppy cleared ball in my own box,easy tap in,bad mistake by my CB.
Then kept playing very hard and fast,and equalised on a strange goal,shot,GK got a hand to it,went out to my fw who headed it over the GK.
Scored 2-1 in the second half reminded me of the goal they scored.
In the last 10 m they pushed up and pressured me hard,couldn't set up any passing at all.
Made an error and fumbled the ball out for a corner.
And on the corner they picked up a loose ball in the box,and made it 2-2!
In the 95th fucking minute!
The last kick of the game!
Seriously,don't know how may wins I've lost in extra time.
So god damn frustrated right now.

And for you who doesn't play ML yet,good luck...you gonna need it,especially on manual!
Think I have around 60-65% in passing,probably had around 70-75 on 16,so...good luck!
Next up Napoli.
Not looking fw to that one
In the 95th fucking minute!!!

What minute did they score that equaliser? ... .I'm playing as Virtus in Serie B default players top player manual 15 mins -1 speed .. . .only had 2 games drew the first 0-0 not a bad game . . .. second game narrowly lost 2-0 . . .changed my tactics to the way I usually play 3-5-2 and switch to 4-3-3 .. it was a very enjoyable game . .my ideas were nearly working .. but it's hard to get the staff these days . . made a few cheap signings young promising players for around 300,000. . .it's gonna be a tough long season but I can see the potential in the tactics .. .opened them up a few times but the players were too weak to threaten them .. .got the old feeling of playing last years Ml back so that's encouraging. Gonna give it a good shot tomorrow and hopefully get a couple of wins.

Nice to see on board mate.
Tough as nails right,same settings as me then.
Isn't luvly,this game is so promising,a modern day classic I hope
Going default,that's some balls on you,I can barely manage with a top 6 team.
Tactics are so rewarding,so much to get your brain around.
Think I'm going 4-3-3 as my main tactic as well,took a look at my team and it's pretty much built for it.
Tough loss mate,you'll bounce back,looking fw to some reports tmw mate.
IN THE 95TH FUCKING MINUTE!!!:)
 
The bad run continues
AC Milan 0-3 SSC Napoli
Two corners that I concede on,I'm shit at that apparently

Hibernian 0-0 AC Milan (EL)
Couldn't score for life,plus got two sending offs,bit of a frustration for the lads.

Then my 4-3-3 started to pay off
FC Crotone 1-3 AC Milan
First game that I score more than twice,two screamers from 20-30 yards out,left and right top corner,one being an outside kick of the boot.
And also a through ball and tap in.
Finally,I started to think Konami was messing with my head,pretty much everything I throw at goal,goes wide.

Next up an EL fixture
 
Unsure whether to start the ML that I'd spent multiple seasons with, or to have sort of a starter ML to get a feel for it. This is my first PES game so I'm unsure whether a better OF will come along and mean I have to restart etc. What do you guys think?
 
Give it a shot Kenpachi . ..as regards the option files I've taken bits from different ones to suit what I need but there isn't enough slots. . . .I had seven la liga 2 teams in and ran out of space. I have the Premiership. . the Championship. . La liga. . SerieA and Serie B and a bit of liga 2 and that's without manager faces and stadium photos and that's all that fits in.
 
Yeah, I think I might join you all in Italy and get a Serie B save going with whoever has that most attractive jerseys.

My option file has the BPL, Championship, LaLiga, LaLiga 2, Serie A, Serie B, Liga NOS, Bundesliga in full. Do I need to do anything before I start in terms of setting up UCL and Europa League participants?

EDIT: Also, what game settings i.e full manual or not, difficulty and game speed are you guys using. The base game is fantastic, but I want to experiment a little and see what else it offers.
