    Anyone notice that Matchmaking is so much quicker over the last couple of days? It used to take 2/3 minutes now it seems to only be under 10 seconds most of the time!

    They're really making an effort to improve upon their online performance now, which is great to see and much needed.
    This beta appears to have been a success all round!

    First few days was horrible for lag on 3v3 and 1v1s were perfect. Only started playing it again the other day and 3v3 was lag free. I agree, they're really making a conscious effort to fix the servers. That's 1 main reason one of the lads I know plays fifa over PES, online connection quality. I never experienced lag in PES 2017 but I believe a lot of other people did.

    I hope they don't change too much with gameplay because it's so good. Apparently this is just an early build though

    An annoying thing I find (same as last year), when a player on your team is on a yellow card, there's nothing (bar at the bottom of the screen s tiny yellow card) to make it obvious he's booked. The symbol above their head being yellow would be preferable. I've made a few challenges that I wouldn't have done if I knew I was on a booking.

    Also, a signal on the screen for advantage play would be nice other than just the ref signalling.

    Noticed that too but funny that your mentioned it there because I was playing 3v3 just there and pogba had been booked and there was a yellow card over his indicator. Never saw that before!

    It's horrible to play 17 now.

    Thankfully Just Cause 3 is free on plus next month, so that should take up much of my gaming time over the next few weeks while I wait patiently for 18.

    loving the 3x3 online.. had some great games with team mates that wanted to play properly... which means passing to players in a better position and playing as a team, scored some lovely team goals... hopefully the full version can have 3x3 online which is just not one off games, love the team play.....

    You can set up a clan with your friends in the full game but I don't know if there's divisions or just one off games.

    would be great if there is divisions, we could set up a few Boards clans...

    I'd definitely be up for a boards clan

  • Registered Users Posts: 14,657 ✭✭✭✭callaway92

    Online co-op in footie is good fun when done properly


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    Count me in also!

    I'm refusing to play PES 2017 anymore now, it was a fantastic sports game and it gave me hours upon hours of joy; I don't want to ruin that memory by playing it after experiencing the PES 2018 beta. :o

    Beta is over now. You'll have to wait 3/4 weeks for the demo.

    A few years away from Pro evo but does Pro Evo has its own version/form of Ultimate team?

    Just anything where you build a team to play online?

    Anyone else preordered yet? Got it from the game collection, €45! Smyths and GameStop looking for €65+!

    Can the legendary edition only be got in game in the UK? I can't see it here at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,752 ✭✭✭johnpatrick81


    No idea, went with the cheapest I found, which was the premium edition. No interest in any extras.

    Just wait until FIFA comes out... guarantee that will be €75, as it was last year!

    How they have the audacity to charge €75 every year for iterative sports title with only minor incremental changes and an updated roster from the year before is truly astonishing.


    Edit: PES is €70... holy fuck!!

    I also just saw the cover of it on The Game Collection. I presume that will be changing fairly quickly!! :pac: :pac:


    I'll also probably be going with the game collection too though. €45 for that game seems like a bargain nowadays, plus they'll apparently refund the difference should they drop the price (not that it will drop! :pac:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,110 ✭✭✭Colemania


    I got the barca edition on the PS store for 70 euro, purely because I could buy it using buygamecredit.com to convert unused phone credit to PS credit. Haven't bought a game in years because of it. Well I only buy about 3 games a year and one of them is PES :)

    Worth keeping an eye out for their random 10% off preorder codes as well too which pop. Up every couple of months. Nice few quid off the game.

    Where is cheapest digital copy?

    Yeah, went looking for them and all but couldn't find any current ones for August. I'm assuming that's probably deliberate though as with FIFA and PES, August/September are probably their most profitable months.

    Hmmmm....I did not know you could do this. This could be my new preferred way of paying for games. With the topup offers and such I rarely actually spend credit despite having to top up every month.

    Ah bollox to that anyway. It seems to be just Xbox games for the moment! Ah well!


    I'll have to keep an eye on that in future though. :):)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,541 ✭✭✭IncognitoMan


    Hmv game credit lets you buy psn cards and Xbox for phone credit. I'm not sure which phone carriers offer it but I'm with 3 and have been using it for a couple of years now
