PES 2018

Drumpot

Havent played PES much in many years. .

I don't play online (only career), so am I correct in saying the cheap as chips disc is usually the way to go ? (ie no need to pay extra for different versions because its mainly online goodies you are getting ?!)

Yep, I think most on here are PS4. I've seen a couple of PC guys commenting, too.

Anyone know if the official update patch is out on ps4? Mbappe and Neymar are with PSG on mine. Does that mean I've got the update patch or just a small transfer update?

It says I have:

Version 1.01.00
Data Pack Unimplemented
APPLY LIVE UPDATE 201709141

Looks like you've got it! So......what are the 5 star teams then?

Played the demo. I like pes.

I think it's a better game than Fifa now.

One thing they could improve is the display and menus. Trying to make changes to your team is a pain and not easy on the eye. Same with tactics. I haven't a clue how to change them.

You can't change the tactics in the demo, only the advanced instructions such as playing with Wing Backs or Gegenpress, etc.
You can change your formations and everything else you can think of in the full version of the game, and it's a much better implementation than FIFA's in that regard also.

Played a 3v3 game there and the players were turning like lorries.

It still takes ages to match make online as well

Once you get used to the tactics you won't look back. It's a much more in depth system than Fifa.

There would probably be a couple of YouTube videos out there but mainly just stick with it and you'll eventually figure it out through messing around.

loving the gameplay so far, went online earlier with my club and got a couple of hammerings, still do not know how to get the best out of the scouts and that.

Fuzzy Logic

No sign of the pc servers running. Konami getting a lot of flack for it

Waiting on an email link from Pesuniverse, they're sending them out now. Paid a tenner for it. Having done tons of editing myself in the past I think it's worth it to pay the guys for the immense amount of work that goes in to it. It will be available for free, but probably not for another 10 days or so.

I thought it would be available for free for all at some stage today? Must have misread it somewhere so. Might stump up for it, don't have the patience to wait around and I won't play offline unless its Master league. Need to get some practice in ahead of this league because i'm fairly useless

ziggyman17

anybody recommend me a usb stick to get so I can put an option file on ?

It will be available for free for all. Probably after about 10 days, maybe a week.

Site won't even load for me anyway

D_turbo

I entered the code I got with the game as day one bonus.

I got to use a gold ball and got sneijder?
Is that my one free player got?

Or am I missing something

Bozo Skeleton

There could be free option files around. Pesgaming might be worth a look.
I've gone for the Pesuniverse one because it was superb last year. The Bundesliga and missing CL and Europa League teams will eventually be in it.
There is some very good other ones though that might be up on Pesgaming.

Downloaded the Xbox 360 version, hoping gameplay improvements were enough.
Just checked the stadium lists, and there's only 5 listed!!!
Wtf?

Says way more on the site, but an asterisks does mention 'varies by console'.

I thought last year's had way more than 5!!!
Or maybe I downloaded them all on the Viper patch?

Koolhanger

Just about finished installing the PES Universe option file!!!

Also, freaked out earlier as I thought my ps4 was damaged - some weird **** going on with that 4.74 system software update. Still didn't download it. Says error.

PS4 wouldn't start up for me for about 30mins and was freezing when starting up at different stages.

First time anything like that's ever happened. Hoping it's the last time.

Cienciano

I just played 2 games offline, but this is a great version of pes.

tigger123

Don't suuposse there's a stadium editor/creator as part of the game? They included one a few versions ago.

brianregan09

What's everyone playing on ? I started a world cup with Italy on Professional which is what I usually play 4-0 after 30 mins......I need to up it , and I was playing Chile not exactly Mugs

Where and how did you get the option file ? I am a gold member on there and ive gotten no email or anything yet and sites down all day.

I remember this happening last year with all the demand it took a while for everyone to get things.

Professional too easy with a decent team. Top player is much more competitive

Cienciano

Currently on top player
