Seems it\'s gotten harder to defend properly, more often than in PES, the defence gives the opposition heeps of space to play through-balls in.
Speed is improved though, no slowdown, and ball physics has been improved. Turning with the ball also seems faster.
When someone steals the ball from you it doesn\'t take as long to regain control over the player. Sometimes in PES1 your player would stumble forward for 3-4 seconds where you could do absolutely nothing, which was very frustrating and unrealistic.
This time around you recover quickly and are able to chase him down again.
One thing that I don\'t like is that it\'s become a lot easier to do raids, meaning running past like 5-6 players with one player and scoring. Seems too easy and unrealistic, more like FIFA (ugh). If you\'re playing with Michael Owen you can basically do whatever you want because he\'s too quick. Can pretty much run from your own goal to the opposition\'s and score.
Another negative side is that players still almost never seem to want to come and meet the ball, they just stand there looking stupid waiting for it to come to them and of course the opposition intercepts it. I was really hoping they would improve on this from PES but they haven\'t.
I really don\'t know what I think of this, on some levels it\'s gotten better and in some others worse.
Edit - btw, I hope you were talking about PES and not the ISS-series. Otherwise, forget everything I said coz I don\'t like the more arcadey ISS or FIFA series.
