Scripted Game!!!
I am no superstar with this game... it used to be my stress reliever when I am not working, but they have decided that their fans for the last two decades didn't matter anymore, so they got rid of all offline modes.
I play in Top Player. Problems I have noticed...

1. Most opponents are faster than my guys despite rankings... (I had to watch a guy from Como catch Mbappe for a tackle.)

2. Their passes are almost always accurate, faultless (whether they're 89 or 54 on passing). Never a bad pass, never a mistake.

3. No matter the position of the players, they are ALWAYS in from for an aerial battle.

4. All opponent player have Neymar level feet; dribbling/feints on flick.

5. Directional is way off with passes going to wrong players. (a soft pass to a lateral player with a slight bar of green on the power will get shot off down the flank to possibly the winger, or 80% a steal from opponent.

6. Power is irrational and broken; I have done full bar passes across the field, and it never made it to the wing (a full f'ing bar of power), and 60% of the time gets stolen because again, they are in front of you on 80% of aerial duels. Likewise, a soft, quarter power pass from your GK to your CB can end up all the way to the CAM, which again has a likelihood of being stolen because you weren't trying to do that.

7. On a runs, I have noticed my player suddenly stop... that 1 millisecond cost me a free ball, a pass or allowed the defender to have an advantage on the run.

8. A player losses the ball, but makes zero attempts to try to win it... he immediately runs away, back into position and a lot of the time at the cost of a free ball.

9. In obvious runs, players are not trying to make intelligent runs (Possession, Counter,Long Ball... doesn't matter).

10. Rebounds, I never get the advantage. It seems the ball always finds a way/bounces back to the opponent.

11. You tackle a player, he is flat on the ground but gets up in time to get the free ball before you're able to move.

12. Penalties are BROKEN!!! I have had a penalty call against me in every match I've played, for the slightest of taps in the box; taps that in the normal run of play the ref would give the advantage and would never give a card, but they always call the penalty for those on me at least.

13. The ball has no weight to it; I feel like I am passing a slightly heavier balloon.

Unfortunately, the STUPID Konami keep the same track and don't want to change gameplay. When you play against lower and mid level players gameplay is pretty ok, but HORROR begins when you play against better ranked players. I'm playing PES almost 25 YEARS and i know this game much better then many that created this ♥♥♥♥ in the past a couple of years. I'm not top player, but i'm very good player and when i play against players on my level or above, SCRIPT is turning ON and then starts BATTLE against other player and script.

Konami formula: Higher level = more and more scripting

I REALLY LOVE THIS FANCHISE, BUT THIS GAME JUST MAKE YOU CRAZY!

You can un-script number 6 by picking passing level 4.

This is not football it is a scripted system which looks like football

3. No matter the position of the players, they are ALWAYS in from for an aerial battle.

Yes my cross field passes rarely make it to the other side of the field because for some random reasons, the full bar pass didn't have enough power. You can't give long overhead forward passes for forwards like real life because they rarely make such runs. They just stand there and like you said always in for an aerial battles. They always hide behind the defenders.

Change the level of passing.

That’s the way it is. This game has become for cheaters and cheaters. The odds are parallel to this. Cheaters will donate to them and get everything they want. There is nothing for honest players here.

In a programm everything is scripted. If there are no lines of code, nothing happens. A click on the menu triggers a script, a pass, an animation, a movement as well... The question is, is there any difficulty adjustment (based on a series of losses, skills differences of opponent, players buyed on the pitch, or coin purchases)? We might think so, but we could also consider that it's the slowness of their servers, lag due to people with poor connections, code quality, etc...

Right, everything is scripted in programing. Otherwise, people with skills can easily use 1 star players to beat everyone. That's why they make the game kind of like a RPG game. When 1 star team play against 5 stars team, they make the 5 stars players so much superior. I still remember the day I used the master league default team to beat someone with a god squad online in the previous pes edition.

Yes. Basic players even if leveled above 90 can't do ♥♥♥♥ against players who were bought.

This Game is total rubbish - Konami has decided the winner of each match before kick-off, or maybe they adjusted the probability and accuracy of each kick we made, no matter how good you are or what total strength points you got you can be easily lose against anyone from any level,

You can feel it when the game has already decided the winner, your team will be much more ruined, they will suddenly be out of position, make a silly blunder, or miss intercept

I noticed all this for a long time, and I wrote it, I completely agree, this was all done by KONAMI on purpose, I don’t know why?! This is KONAMI's scenario, but I don't understand why they don't want us to win? if I have a good team and I play well, then why destroy my team?? There is only one way out here; No matter how much we write here for KONAMI it is pointless, but if the majority of people vote against this deception on Steam, then the game can be removed or KONAMI can finally correct this nonsense the way it should be, and not deceive people and spoil their nerves.
It is all just a plan to market microtransactions.
