I've been playing with shooting on "basic" (i.e. assisted) and I've had one-on-ones in the box that the striker has put straight at the keeper, or wide - and bear in mind that, as you say, I've had to work to get literally one decent chance per game... I've nearly thrown the controller across the room.Scoring with them adds another layer... At the keeper, wide, over, you name it. Too much power (height) in 80% of the cases. I simply haven't learned to equate power with height, it's so unintuitive.
In the last game I played, I scored three goals - the most I've scored in one game all season - and they were all manual goals (held down R1 before I shot). So I feel a bit like I'm being cheated. Fair enough, don't let me score wondergoals on assisted - in-fact, I really don't want you to - but I want my striker with 80 for finishing to score the easiest one-on-one he'll ever have in his life, after two hours of solid PES-playing trying to win a #@$%ing game. I want "basic" to mean "if the guy would score in this situation in real life, he'll score". Not "you're on superstar? LOOK OUT, SPECTATORS!"
The trouble is, with my controls set to manual shooting, I can't get close to scoring, and I give up after hours of practicing. Using R1 to shoot manually, I get the little guide-line, which I love (I think it's a brilliant idea) - except, on Superstar, you don't get enough time to press that, see the line and shoot. A defender will just come and deflect your shot away...
