Does the slowdown affect genuine version or downloaded version ?

[Marmite]

From what ive read, its both

[John Beaulieu]

it affects the genuine version (or i wouldn't have bothered posting about it)

Are goalies now able to save from headers? They didn't seem to know what to do in WE7, the ball bounded slowly along the ground only for the keeper to throw himself across the goal-mouth after the ball has already passed him.

[Nuttey]

The waiting is unbearable, and after only learning of the release dat last week, I've agreed to buy it off a mate who's getting it this friday for 60 pounds.

How the WE and PES teams, I hope they've disappeared this time..

I've probably seen goals scored like that, but very infrequently. Not enough to mention it as a specific bug. You'll probably find there's always going to be shots that should have been saved, and shots that never should have.

Chad- I found the keepers vastly improved in WE7i over the keepers in pes3. They were truly awful but in we7i they were improved . So unless kcet have had a mess about id imagine theyd be as good as they were.
Still waiting for we8

got an option file on cd now which turns about 70% (not checked fully but from the few games since i used it thats about the going rate)

very easy to use as long as you have a chipped ps2 - anyone interested can pm me

*should be 100% later this afternoon - not as good as a patch (options and in-game menu's are still in japanese) but for those who like to know what players are where its a good start - so thats 100% names in english plus the majority of transfers

ps - the option file saves to your memory card, no need to learn how to patch or anything strenous like that .... very easy to use (takes about 60 seconds to suss it out)

Maybe it was a bit of an extreme example, but I honestly can't remember seeing a keeper save a headed shot - corners are normally a guaranteed goal, the only time they ever fail is if you head it off-target.

cheers for the translation bud, will come in handy when i get my god damn copy!

[John Beaulieu]

not quite sure how to get the pre-game screen up for exhibition matches - just not appearing at all now

slowdown is getting more and more obvious - its very off-putting indeed

[revisedgenocide]

Not enjoying this slowdown buisness one bit.
Whats the chances of a recall or a quick release updated version in japan?
Doubt it would do those of us whove imported any good though.

[John Beaulieu]

we7 had slowdown in the same places - iirc it was just as bad as this one .... we7i (jpn version) had the slowdown extracted

its liveable - but its annoying at the same time ..... whats even more annoying is that it seems to come and go, some matches have none whilst some have tons (think it depends on just how you and your opponent defends, get lots of men back into the box and it does slowdown) .... worst instance is in corners, talking bullet time stylee at times
