Add me to list of disappointed with refs and lack of fouls. Pretty much cancels out the physicality. Otherwise the update covered some much needed things to tighten things up a bit. Still miss the demo.

I see several fouls a game, it's far easier to draw fouls on PES than FIFA in my opinion.  I've also not really had too much frustration during the time I've experimented with the assisted switching.  I still prefer semi assisted, even if the excessive button clicking can get a bit tedious, just because I feel more in control.  The auto switch usually gets it right though, much to the relief of my poor left index finger.

Is anyone else finding the skill moves to be far less effective against the CPU this year?  I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on the skill controls,  but it's like the AI reads my mind every time I go for a Ronaldo chop or a drag back move of any variety.  I also have a harder time pulling off step overs this year, not sure if it's the added button press or what but I've been frustrated by that so far.  Do you guys play with auto feint off or on?

I have been playing with auto feint off and I am able to get the CPU to fall for certain moves uses the shot stick and left stick dribbling is where it is at.

It’s my number 1 complaint. They touted the finesse dribbling (Iniesta approved!). It’s completely useless because the movements aren’t drastic enough to open any space.

I too am growing into the skill moves but on Top Player the AI reads the move 99/100 times. The only move that’s effective is the simple left stick “shoulder drop”.

I can’t put the game down still, love the overall gameplays. Dribbling and the continued lack of whistles are frustrating though. There is a LOT of physical play, but blow the dang whistle!

Get my stick cause there’s a dead horse I need to be beating!!!

i really like the changes made and honestly the game plays as good as it ever has. I have been getting a decent amount of fouls called since the DP2 drop and honestly enough that I’m not that upset but.......

3 years of PES for me and not 1 penalty. Not 1. I know this might sound dumb, but that’s a big enough deal to make me not want to play.

The right stick moves DO work, but are much harder to execute, which I really like. It is much more realistic, but if you use the right moves at the right time they buy you space To do something.

This game is strange. I had one day since the update where it played great but then the next day it went back to feeling sluggish and nerfed. For that one day everything was super responsive - skill moves worked, and the game registered small stick movements so you could finesse in small spaces without the over exagerated momentum you normally get making small movements with close dribbling almost impossible. Player control was unreal.

It was really smooth and I was able to pull off small but quick side steps to get off some really nice looking shots that looked fantastic. I have to believe this is how the game is supposed to play, but for some reason it hasn't happened since. Makes me think that they have technical issues on the backend that are really hurting the game.

Curious, are you on PC? I am and have noticed the same issue. There are several on YouTube that have mentioned the same also. It is easily noticed when it happens. Like the players are stuck in quicksand while the ball moves normally.

Someone online was saying that it happens when you're connected/not connected to the server.

No idea
