WE6I Newbs - How's your Master League going?

[Auriaprottu]

Just started out my ML on easy. I'm totally new to this game (never had ISS/PES), so easy's where I'll play my first complete ML. If I can win D1, then I'll move up to Normal. I edited Lazio into a custom team. So far I've played three matches in D3, beating Ajax 3-0, losing to Villa 3-2 and beating Marseille 4-1. Now it's time to buy some talent.

Since I didn't have any experience with the WE series before, I didn't know that you start out with garbage for players when I picked a team. Otherwise, I guess I would have picked a lesser known team. But I don't want Nazio in any game I own, so they were my first choice for editing.

 

[rascricket]

Yes, the players you start out with aren't too good...I kept Cellini...somethin' about him.....When you guys go to buy that talent, just a reminder, cheack their TEAMWORK rating.....Very crucial

 

[FuriousGeorge]

I started ML on Normal last night with Florentia Viola.

I played 3 games and went 1-1-1.

Then I got tired and turned off the PS2 with out saving D'oh!

I'll start over tonight.

 

[shyne09]

i thought it was almost impossible to get bergkamp, ronaldo. ect
when ur in div 3. am i misreading or does anyone have superstars on their div 3team?

 

[monkee]

Don't despair guys. I've had PES2 for 5 months now and only 3 weeks ago bumped it up to Extreme level after Hard level became a less challenging after I'd built a team of established players.

I finished 5th in ML div3 with Man Utd (I refuse to buy any Man Utd, until I've played at least 5 seasons) and managed to get runner-up in the cup the Tiny Cup (Amsterdam). Had I not had a good cup run I'd have been in trouble. Got Sheringham and Joel Reyes in my first season. Off-Season I got Quanquina from Columbia and Zamorano and managed to get into the playoffs (div3 winners) in the penultimate game of the season. Got runner-up in the Tiny Cup again, this time losing to La Plata who I'd beaten 4-0 twice in the season. ( )

Snook through to div2 in the playoffs with 2 draws and a win. Then went on a spending spree in the off-season to add some pace up-front (Mpenza) and get a decent midfielder (Doni) and another defender (Sesar (Parma)). Don't know how I'm going to fair in div2 yet though. It's really, really challenging on Extreme.

 

[danger zone]

Randomly chose Arsenal and in my first season finisihed dead last, winning one game, drawing four and losing eight. Hardly impressive, but normal mode is harder than I thought. I created myself with the highest attributes and bought myself in the off season. Now playing pre season friendlies and hopefully will enjoy a better season. Tempting to switch to easy, but I can't do it. Still I don't want to go under in points.

It's things like that, that keep the game fresh and exciting! I mean, yah, after the game you are like at the screen and at the game, BUT it happens in real life! I think that is so awesome though, best of luck with your Div. 2 though, I am in my third season right now with Man. U. as well, in Div. 3. Extreme. Just started Extreme like a week ago! (WE6FE)

Don't do it ever. It seems as if you are able to atleast win a few games and tie a few. Unless you are getting outclassed every game, there really is no reason to go down a lower level. So just keep at it for now, if it gets TOO stressful, then reconsider.
Also, though going under points sucks, it's a learning experience.

I started on Normal and went 0-4-2 in my first six matches, but then bought a couple players (Donovan and Armanio), attackers, and won out, winning the league. Then I lost to AV in the first round of the Tiny Cup. In the Promotion/Relegation Playoffs, I beat River Plate 4-0, then beat Boca 2-0, to clinch promotion, just for fun played as hard as I could against Olymp and beat them 3-0.

Just started my first season in Division II with a 2-1 win at Arsenal, 3-2 win vs Dinamo Kiev, and a 2-1 win at Bayern Munich in the Cup.

Can't believe how hard it is on just Normal, I bought a lot of players in the offseason, Ronaldinho, Cris, Edmilson, Jorge Costa, van der Vaart, Denilson, Beasley, Torricelli, Daoi, and Chivu. I have a class squad now,

how do u people buy ronaldinho and stuff... the most money ive ever had is 4500, and u people that keep saying ur losing a lot... how are u guys getting money if ur not winning? i think im missing something here

 

[kinghenry14]

You get a lot of money for winning promotion.

You can change the deal too, I got Ronaldinho for about half of the listed price, just offered a 3 year contract instead of 5, reduced the price to pay, reduced the amount the contract paid.

Good.... so far!

Well, having been the only wuss who has started the Master League on 'Easy' level I'm doing pretty good so far. I've bought a team of stars and I've got promotion to the 1st division with 6 games left. I'm using the whole thing as a training opportunity before I start my Master League on 'Normal' level.

I managed to unlock the real team commentary names last night after winning the Konami Cup on 3 stars. It took me four attempts but I finally managed it. Talk about hard fought games, man!

This game rocks. I've been a virtual hermit since I've had it but even my wife thinks the game is way cool and she's really not into video games.

Cool. So you can unlock the real team names.

The Konami Cup...that isn't Master League, right?

About Master League...it doesn't matter what team you chose, right? You wind up with the same players. Are real players used in Master League (didn't recognize any of the players on my team)?

thanks

No, the ML is not the Konami Cup. Look in the cups selection and you will find it, you must win the konami cup with a CLUB team to unlock this option when editing the teams.

To be honost it does matter. Yes, you start off with the same default players, but lets say you play as Arsenal, you will have the whole Arsenal squad available for you to buy without having to pay a transfer fee. This is of course assuming you will do well enough to start buying players. Usually though, you start off buying players that will do just enough to make money, you may be stuck in D3 for a few season, but by the third season, if you have been makin' money, most of the star players that are available to buy will still be free and essentially you won't have to pay a transfer fee still! Hence, you will be able to play with the real Arsenal players.

 

[rascricket]

Thats' difficult for me....the whole time till you buy them they're like non-exsistent players....I know, personal pref.!
It's cool to see people have picked up similar players.......right now, ZION UNITED is just getting bumped to Div 2...My sqaud is
pretty fat..some of my guys are

Defense--Song--Nadal--Hendry

Mid--Guardiola--Ulises-Acuna-Capouche-
& Denilson

Attack--DIOUF--Sheringham--Magallennes(sp)
--Doni

Keepers-- Chalivert--Song'O--Ivanov

------ZION UNITED IS ROCK SOLID!!-----------

I highly reccomend Doni, Douif, Guardiola, DEnilson, and even Ulises---I only gave up like 8 goals, so the keepers are solid----Duoif and Doni are great finishers!!

What settings do you have to have in the Konami Cup to unlock the call names? I won the cup in 5 min games, against 2 other teams, and on 1 star just to unlock the call names, but it didn't seem to work.

Another question. Can you choose which uniforms the teans where in Master League? The computer keeps picking kits that are too similar, making it too hard to quickly differentiate the players (esp. on Wide or Normal Long camera angles). Any way to fix that?

Thanks

 

[SatanJones]

GKs: Keller, Hedman

Defenders: Onopko, Hendry, Valgao, Ferdinand, Alpay, Vorlander

Mids: KARPIN, Babangida, Rui Costa, Aimar, Nakata

Forwards: Asprilla, Pauleta, Shevchenko, Mpenza

Karpin is my rock in midfield, great player for absolutely everything. Try him out, his teamwork is good and he is very visible in every game.

 

[rascricket]

I really wish they put a cap on how many players you can get in a season...I end up pickin' guys that aren't TOO goo cuz its too EZ

 

[TristanAbbott7]

3 Stars and above

You need to win the Konami Cup in the round robin setting on 3 stars or above to unlock the real commentary for club teams.

 

[Auriaprottu]

Okay...a few questions.

1. I'm in second place with four matches left. How many teams get promoted from D3?

2. I only won the Konami Cup on the easiest level, but I do occasionally hear my ML team's name called out when I play (like when I miss a shot). What more will I hear in the commentary if I go ahead and win it on 3-star level?

3. I'm on ML easy level, and it's not very difficult to win matches. I'm basically using it to get used to the controls and strategies. But when this first season is over, I'll have a good bit of money left, because I don't need to buy more players to win. Do I get to keep the money, or do I start again at 3000 points?

4. I unlocked the Euro Elite by winning the International Cup on 2-star. What does winning the America's Cup earn me? The European Cup?

Thanks in advance.
