PES5 network madness!

November 8th, 2005 Posted in other games

Ok I got PES5 last week. I was very excited about the possibility to play against human adversaries with network.
Now I can say that I’m not excited anymore. I just played 10 matches. Can you believe it? 9 out of 10 adversaries chose the team: BRAZIL.
This sucks. I always try to pick different teams, like Juventus, Milan, Italy, etc. The adversaries: BRAZIL.
Seems like to play against robots, not humans. I wonder what’s the purpose of choosing always the same team. Surely they don’t want to lose, but WTF is just a game!
There should be rules, like you can’t use same team for 2 consecutive matches. Or you’re penalized if you pick a much stronger team.
Anyway, I’m playing only the classic Master League for now. I’ll leave network play to those exhaltated guys and their super-ultra-unbeatable teams.

    I noticed same. That’s why I choose Finland as my team! Suprice, I won once Brazil!!

    When somebody wins Brazil playing with Finland, should he get 10 times more points as vice versa.
