Bagged 6 goals so far at the quarter final stage! Only had substitute appearances! Scored 4 coming on as a sub against Portugal! Pedobear is ACE!

What level you playing on?
 
A really crap one. Whatever 2 star is I think. I was fed up of my ratings barely getting any better on top player and playing for a side where you were immediately worse than the opposition because of the difficulty setting. So decided to make Pedobear. A 7ft tall black man with blonde hair, grey beard, and a massively messed up face. Just wanted to be able to pick the game up and have fun rather than struggle. If I ever fancy a struggle I still have that top player game.
 
The tackling is even worse online, it is hard enough to tackle with A but add some online LAG and players just skip past even when running in a straight line :/

Red cards for perfectly good tackles about 50% of the time :(

Played a few games of this last night and discovered that you do better if you don't actually try to tackle as much.

I started using players to stand between the player with the ball and his possible passing options as the computer automatically sticks out a leg and grabs the ball if they try to pass past you. While doing this I use the computer controlled players to apply pressure while being careful not to drag them out of position.

In fact I hardly press the tackle buttons at all now. If a player is next to me more often than not I'll just nudge them off the ball while running.

I'm winning the ball back a lot more now.:)

I've moved down to regular. Its not that much easier, just your players aren't useless anymore and their players do make some mistakes meaning you can pick up a loose ball.

On Top player I could sit there for 2 mins watching them pass the ball about and not even get a chance of a touch.
 
Ive gotten more into this game since PES 2008. Champions league mmmmm.
Anyone who wants a game sometime, im normally on daily (PSN = CptDale). though im prob really bad compaired to the rest of you guy's, would be a good laugh.
 
anyone noticed the news on the login screen that replay uploads will be available with the next patch :)

Not noticed it but know about the announcement, will be good to see some other peoples goals.

Finished my 2011-2012 season last night and won the league with Ajax, joined them in the January window and scored 11 goals playing just behind the stikers, scored my first hat-trick as well. :)
Decided to stay there in the summer even though an offer came through from Valencia, I love Ajax style of play as its so attacking meaning I get a lot of goal scoring opportunities. They play a 4-3-3 with all 3 midfielders playing VERY attacking.
 
I moved to ac Milan in the summer of my 2nd season after winng the league with Verona, then signed for lazio for half a season, it's coming back to haunt me as all the games we one at lazio means they are pretty far in front, I also don't get on with ac milan style of play with basically me up front alone, to top it off kaka got signed by man u so I'm stuffed for support :p may move but ac are 4th overall in points for all leagues and I want to go to England. I'm an ss or cf but prefer ss left field. Good fun tho, like legend mode, shame you can't spend your money on things
 
Do you always get subbed at about the 70 minute mark regardless of your stamina? I think I've only ever completed 1 full game for west Ham in 4 seasons.

This season i think i might get the Triple :D although in some matches we win inspite of my crazy running rather then because of it :p
 
Yes usually around then, got subbed 5 mind before the end of winning the league which really annoyed me as I wanted to be in the winning vid :( :p
I'm trying to build up stamina but it doesn't really seem to matter even if you get man of the match
 
I am REALLY getting hacked off with the become a legend mode - I simply cannot get 90 minutes in!!!!
It doesnt matter if I've got loads of energy left and scored a couple of goals - I get subbed 100% of the time!

Its got to the point where I'm surprised to see the end of the game even if I've come on as a sub!!!

Anyone know what the new update does? (PS3)
Is it just updated rosters?

Really? Is this in the downloads section? I've seen it lurking there, but haven't bothered with it as it doesn't tell you that it will update the rosters!

Or is it the one which downloaded automatically a couple of days ago? If it's this one it hasn't been a very good update-Berba still isn't at Man U, Riera's not at Liverpool and Robinho isn't at Man City!!!

Incidentally, I've now played 6 games online and still haven't played against somebody who wasn't Barca...ridiculous!

I'm not sure if you've quoted it before but what is your Stamina? When i played my first Legend character i was on stamina 68ish and got him to 75 which let me play about 60 minutes of the game before i'd be off. After checking some other peoples starting stats i noticed mine were a mile lower! :( So i made another char and now his Stamina is up to 90 after 2 seasons and i'm on until the 80th minute but a lot of times by the time the 80th minute comes up, my team has made it's 3 subs so i get to play the full game :D

Does anyone have a specific order in which to raise stats? I usually go Stamina, then either speed or technique.
