Paul, I spend an hour globally editing ratings, and after that I'm good for the year. FIFA plays a very good game after edits, varies its attack, takes plenty of long shots, plenty of cards and fouls, etc. That's without even talking about how line slider settings can dramatically alter CPU attack/defense AI to make teams play differently.paulv2k4;3832464 said:You can't be serious?
AI.
The AI is a joke.
The same is not possible with PES. Basically, many of the player ratings in PES are simply for show, and have zero affect on actual gameplay. PES GKs with ratings boosted to 99, play as poorly as the worst rated GKs in FIFA. And there is simply no way to increase cards and fouls, the programming does not allow for it even with editing. Foul AI is non-existent. And of course no sliders so stuck with Konami's anemic default gameplay.
I am not saying that editing ratings is ideal, but at least with FIFA it is possible to edit the game and create a very pleasant, very fun football simulation.
