Agreed 100% You really have to be in a good position now to get off a good shot. It also helps to be on the players stronger foot. I was playing with Bayern and hit a shot with Robben with his right foot from far out and it was awful I couldn't help but laugh. I was like I should have got it on his left foot first

Looking forward to putting some more time in with it. I'd feel a lot more comfortable if I could get sprint & jockey on the same buttons they're on in FIFA. Also the auto-switch is killing me. I tried to change both of these without success, but perhaps I overlooked something. Anyone?

U can switch the sprint button if you press start and go to button settings (Im pretty sure thats it, not playing the game rite now) and select custom controls and set it up how u want. I pretty much set mine up like Fifa's set up and it feels more natural for me since im used to Fifa.

Lol. Yea Im starting to get the hang of the crossing as well. I made a nice header with Muller. Also had a nice cross that got through to Messi but I couldnt finish and I was literally right in front of the goal lol but that was my fault. I still need to get a hang of the shooting as Im rocketing some shots way over the bar. Once I get that down, Ill be set. This game takes some learning and getting used to but its a great game. Thnx for all the tips man.

These are two different games that cannot be compared. Please tell me how is PES 2011 a next gen game? Let's compare it to Madden, NBA 2K, MLB 10. Those are next gen games. You can tell right from the start so how is this game a next gen game? PES is a phenominal game but it's not next gen so how is it a PES year in the next gen arena?

i just downloaded the demo of this for the PC...why did they block out the option for me to change settings? i.e. resolution and AA? i hate seeing jaggies...i want to play this game to the highest settings...

EDIT: nvm found it

Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out tonight. Since I sat out 2010 and barely played 2009, the menus are somewhat foreign to me.

I was able to change the face buttons, but not the shoulder buttons. Although I also change FIFA to alternate controls (ie, the old WE shooting/lob pass setup). So, yeah... I'm having trouble changing the PES controls to the FIFA controls that I changed to the WE controls.

Like I said above, I saw the ability to re-map the face buttons -- which I don't want/need to do -- but not the shoulder buttons. I'd like to get sprint on R2 and jockey/strafe on L2 if possible. IIRC, we can't put player switch on L1 since that's for strategy settings. But I'll give it another look tonight...

Your welcome. Semi-assisted works the best IMO.

What are you on about? What determines a next gen game? You call Madden, NBA 2K, and MLB 10 next gen, but then don't say why.
