4-2-3-1 I think.

Drogba is my striker with Goetze Ozil and Gammara behind him. Lahm is on my back line. I had to much team spirit (good players) so I had to sign a better manager.

Is there a way to tell how high the team spirit will go for a particular manager?

Not that I know of. If you find out let me know. I basically just rolled the dice with the new manager since his managerial skill was higher than my current one.

Not sure if I really want to know the answer to this but.. in which ways does it feel half finished compared to the PS4 version? I haven't played either console version so all I have to compare is PES 2014 PC, FIFA 14 PC and FIFA 15 Demo PC.

Graphically I'm honestly more than fine with what I have with PES 2015 after my SweetFX. Gameplay wise, for me, there's nothing that's totally frustrating(ie gamebreaking), IMO it's a few fine tunes away from being a virtually perfect gameplay experience.

I honestly don't think I could give up image importing even if I had a console to go to. But I'm definitely interested in hearing your opinion on it.

Let's see.... yes, the lack of stadiums, but that's across all platforms. What makes it worse is that they're taking out more each year. And why take out the stadium builder? There's no reason why a pc game can't fit that or a bunch of generic stadiums.

The graphics. It's like they purposely dumbed it down from last year. The textures are severely lacking in detail and kinda blurry even on high settings. The colors are very bland, but sweetfx has really helped.

Lack of cutscenes. Again no reason why a pc game can't fit that.

The game was poorly optimized for pc. I had to do alot of tweaking to my system to get it running smooth. My pc is pretty good too.

A minor thing, but why doesn't alt+enter to switch between full screen and windowed work??

All that being said, I've gotten into it more and really liking it. The kit editing is a thing of beauty.

I did the same thing but was just curious. Thank you.

Yeah Textures, especially grass textures seemed a bit funky. SweetFX fixed colors, helped with the grass and got rid of a sort of haze that blurred things up a bit. That was a day one fix for me. Lack of cut-scenes is definitely a head scratcher but I hear they're still in Champions League right? I guess I could let my imagination run with the idea that cut-scenes are reserved for special occasions. Are the cut-scenes in all competitions on the next gen consoles?

I was definitely disappointed that the stadium editor they hyped as making a big return "better than ever" was a flop. Like you said, that's an across the board issue so it's out of the scope of my question but that could have been huge, too bad.

I guess I've been lucky with optimization related stuff because it ran perfectly smooth for me from day one, and my system is a few years old. I wounder if my older card (Radeon 6850) has actually kept me away from certain driver related issues on newer cards.

Anyways, thanks for answering some of the questions, add me on steam if you want and we'll get a game in sometime.

Taken from the in-game help menu...

VS COM

Play against clubs created by other online users that are controlled by the COM. You will play a series of six matches, and if you earn more than ten points, your level increases. The higher your level, the stronger the teams you will face. The six matches will be comprised of 3 home games and 3 away games.

IMO, this feature isn't working right because I won a lot more than I have lost and I am still on the same difficulty. I hope we get more GP compensation.

Man the graphics on PC are absolutely hideous...but to be fair, I don't care in this game. First time I've had legit low scoring matches on 25-30min matches with a CPU that actually builds up to score and doesn't enable the cheat engine to go on unstoppable runs. I'm impressed.

I honestly don't understand this. IMO, the lighting in PES is far superior to FIFA, it's not close. The color palette as well is much more realistic and lifelike, as are the player animations. For me, all of this contributes to a much more pleasant viewing experience. When I play PES I feel for much of the time as if I'm participating in a real game, whereas FIFA always, always feels like I'm playing some cartoon version of football.

This is not a knock on FIFA, I have both games, and play and enjoy them equally.

Never mentioned FIFA, but the graphics on PES 2015 PC version are worse than PES 2014 as it stands right now because most of the high level effects do not seem to be functioning (such as Anti-Aliasing). Also, some of the faces are downright offensive, although it might be different in the PS4/Xbone versions.

See again, I was switching between PES 2014 and the PES 2015 demo for two days, trying to decide if I should buy PES 2015 full game. I finally did because it was just too jarring going back to playing 2014, the jittery animations made the game visually difficult to stomach after the life-like player animation smoothness of 2015. So I suppose for me it's not graphic "effects," it's about what I find pleasant to look at. For me, PES 2015 (PC) is about the most beautiful sports game I've ever played, other than the two minutes I played The Show a couple years back.

So last night I set up a Milan derby and destroy AC Milan 5-2 on Superstar. Just when I think about switching to Top Player I play Belgium vs Holland and draw 1-1 on a goal I scored in the last minute. Then get demolished by Portugal 5-1 where Ronaldo just ran all over me. Game was interesting because first 20 minutes I DOMINATED the game. 8-10 shots, over 80% possession but no goals. Then they score, then a penalty and from there the game went just totally downhill and I really had no chance. So gonna stick with Superstar for now.

Really enjoying the game thus far.

I understand its your opinion and fair enough, but the game is just down right ugly all the way from the presentation, to the crowd, the player faces, and the "effects" as you call them. The Show and NBA 2k are probably the best looking games sports games out there right now and this is not even close to that, at least on PC.

The animations are really nice though, so for me the graphics are secondary and do not hinder the enjoyment of the game in any way, but I'm not going to sit here and pretend that it looks pretty when it clearly does not as it stands.

I can't seem to get SweetFX to work at all on this game, trying to read up on different scenarios so hopefully it works out eventually.

This is the one I used and then just tweaked to my liking. Works great.

On another note, I just realized that this year in edit mode they gave us the option to add logos/images to the backs of kits. I don't see that in last year's version. So we can basically get about 99% accuracy for most kits.

Does the game have a tournament mode like fifa where you can play a season with your fave team? Thx.
