I haven't been playing PES3 much lately, but with the wonderful Euro matches I thought I give it a fresh try and did a quick 5 star tournament...
Honestly, I can't believe how people did claim a while ago that the ball physics in PES3 are "perfect". It seems impossible to play the sort of quick, fast paced, hard-passing football that we've seen in many games of the tournament, and which has become the current style.
The reason is IMO that the ball (especially on the ground) behaves to cumbersome..
I've patched up the short and long passing strength of all players by 30 (!), but the ball on the ground still moves like a bag filled with wet sand, in the air it takes ages to come back down. Crosses tend to be way too floaty and headers are awful... seldomly a header where your player smashes the ball home like Charisteas vs France
A shot like Rui Costa's 2-1 vs England (a dry smasher without visible build up) seems not possible at all. I've yet to have a strong shot from outside the box that stays somewhat low.. yes, i can keep the ball low, but it then moves like it has arthritis...
Or try to smash the ball over the cross-bar like Beckham... granted, I've had penalties going over the goal, but again, they floated like a sissy...
Don't want to speak bad about the game, since it has given me a lot of pleasure, and maybe it's because I haven't played in a while, but I think the whole passing could use some speed and strength.... i mean, i am playing with world class players on level 5..
what do you think?
