Goalkeepers
 

What the hell is wrong with the goalkeepers in PES 2016?!

I've played a lot of PES 1-6 and then after PES 2008 and 2009 I switched over to FIFA because of the obvious lacks in gameplay and especially because the goalkeepers were a joke.

Now I played my first 4-5 matches of PES 2016 (PC) and I'm satisfied with the gameplay so far but what is wrong with the goalies?!?! Out of the first 10 goals I've seen 7-8 were shots/headers in the middle of the goal and should've been saved 100% but somehow the keepers just stand there and watch or they react when the ball has already passed them.

Is it because I'm playing on Professional and have to increase difficulty or are is this a general problem of PES?

I thought they've had cleared this issue over the past 4-5 years... :confused:

These are just the first two games I played. It didnt get any better after playing 20 matches...

Yeah, it's probably mostly the difficulty level. Keepers below Top Player difficulty are pretty bad. But I've seen some horrid goalkeeping even on that difficulty, so it's something that may need to be sorta out via a patch.

Re: Goalkeepers
 

I've noticed the same thing. The most glaring problem I've encountered is the keepers will pull off diving world class saves when they shouldn't and miss saves which literally require them to stick their hand out. The response time seems reversed.

Tried a few matches on the 2nd highest difficulty and it's still a huge problem.

I cant believe they didnt sort out this problem over the last few years, it really kills all the fun in scoring goals if keepers are that bad.

Going to upload a video on YT later but I'm pretty sure it won't change anything....

Maybe it's because I'm playing the PC Version? But if I'm remember correctly it should be the same gameplay-wise as the PS4/Xbox1 Version...

Maybe a PC problem?

Re: Goalkeepers
 

Nope, it's not a pc problem. Goalkeepers are inconsistent to put it politely. Months before the release I posted about this (and other members too). There's a major issue with goalkeepers especially inside the box. Needless to say that almost 90% of shots inside the box are goals. This is beyond ridiculous.

Re: Goalkeepers
 

Yeah, I have been playing around on Top Player and once you get inside the box I'd say that you have a 95% chance of scoring. (The other 5% simply being a bad first touch and the goalie diving on it before you can get it.)

Brilliant goalkeeping...

These were the first 2 games I played and after playing 15-20 matches I must say goals like this are definitely not an exception. :y6:
