The Pro Evolution Soccer 5 walkthrough guides you through issues concerning attributes, the formation and the control. Every of mentioned subject matter was described in the entirely comprehensive method. Everything is supported with the large part of the text. It was checked and tested paying special attention to as much as possible.

The form of the guide is aimed at players who possess basic information about football. If somebody has problems with understanding of basic issues then he (or she) may need to use tips placed on the training menu of the game.

I am greeting entire Polish ISS/PES/WE scene.

There are two groups of attributes in general: basic and special. Basic attributes are reflected through values in the range 1-99. And special ones are awarded in the form of stars. Possessing the big quantity of the special attributes usually means the world reputation player.

Three attributes have the range 1-8. These are Consistency, Condition, and Weak foot accuracy.

Basic attributes increase/fall off in the Master League mode. Values change too in relation with the current player form.

Increase in basic attributes in the Master League mode. The attribute increases of +1 if the competitor played a few decent matches and he is suitably young. The Exp belt suggests it. - Attributes - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and WalkthroughIncrease in basic attributes in the Master League mode. The attribute increases of +1 if the competitor played a few decent matches and he is suitably young. The Exp belt suggests it.

Basic

Height - the player's height, influences head play. The height is also important for goalkeepers. The height has no influence on other attributes.

Dominant foot - the leg preferred by the player, R - right, L- left. If e.g. Weak foot frequency has the value at least 8, than dominants foot will be shaping on the level 9. It means that the preferred leg will have the bigger priority this way.

Favoured Side/Foot - favorite pitch side/leg.

Stamina - stamina, it decreases fast if the player is in the weak form, player who runs on e.g. the entire length of the wing loses it fast, when stamina is less than the half of the maximum value also the Speed top falls down, if the attribute is small the player will be tired more often during the match and the part of technical attributes will fall down the value.

Top speed - the player's maximum speed.

Acceleration - the time, which is necessary to reach the maximum speed, the bigger value the faster he gets it.

Response - the reflex, the time in which the player reacts on passes, extra attribute for the goalkeeper, the attacker is reacts faster on e.g. perpendicular passing and attains the ball, but also more often happens caught on offside.

Agility - the agility, the maneuverability, it shows how the player is changes the direction of the run, reacts to feints etc.

Dribble accuracy - accuracy and the better technique in the dribble.

Mentality - the mentality, the player with the high attribute will be losing condition more slowly and when team is losing he is playing better.

Kepper skills - goalkeeper's abilities, we choose the goalkeeper according to this key, player with the attribute on the level 90 may be a good goalkeeper.

Team work - cooperation with team in general, the player will be more prone to pass more relevantly at the high attribute, to predict actions and will be faster adjusted to the style of the game and to the line-up, extremely important if we want to play faultless/on the high (although not necessarily!).

Consistency - stability, important at the game in season, the player will be maintaining high physical efficiency with the high attribute.

Condition - general shape, the player wins shape back faster in the season game, bound with Stamina and Consistency.

Injury tolerance - resistance to minor injuries, A - big, B -average, C - small.

Hidden

Described in a test manner, available only in the view of team of Japan. They serve in no case for describing the player's quality. They are probably attributes, which will be added, in the next versions of the game.

GK ability - the goalkeeper's general abilities.

GK jump - the quality and the distance of goalkeeper's take-off.

Penalty save - ability for the penalty defense.

GK coach - review of the situation.

Sliding tackle - the bigger value the better slides.

Intercept - ability to intercept the ball.

DF marking ability - ability to cover up players.

Ability to clear - accuracy of knocking the ball out to the front from the defense.

The formation isn't the most important thing necessary for luck (i.e. to achieve success). Of course it is capable to decide of the success of the game but also can be insistent, no through bad arrangements, but through opponent being pain in the ass who delights working out your formation and stops the game over and over in order to arrange next, comical strategy. And therefore I appeal to you: if you think that you will be favorites in the game arrange some offensive strategy and try to play with it through the whole match. The culture of playing requires it from us a little bit. I tested all formations and strategies - really, each of them is capable to manage with the opponent without any problem. Experience and the review of the field is the key here. We will obtain interesting effects even playing with the 3-2-5 system.

Team work

Let's back to Team work attribute. It is so important that it isn't possible to skip it and in order to understand every aspects of the formation it is necessary to take advantage of it skillfully. I will base the example on the 4-4-2 formation. If I choose the other one it will be marked. Team work is often mistaken with Positioning and Playmaking although they are based on similar principles.

  • We play with the positional attack. We play ball between: CMF, CF, RB (side defenders go out often in 4-4-2 to help), RMF. If RMF has the ball and he isn't able to center from the wing because the opponent is locking him, then RB/CMF/CF if it has high Team work than it will run for the position behind RMF, good to center. RMF is passing to the nearest player then, the one who left for the position.
  • Counter-attack: OMF/CMF is running for the goal, he is in the vicinity 40 of meter in front of the goal; attackers are trying hard to go for the position to giving the shot. The attacker with the high attribute will be looking for places where defenders are absent; either will run to the wing in order for centering the ball.
  • Players with the high attribute are filling in positions well: if they are attacking your goal and the one defender stayed somewhere in the front that CMF will fill in the line of defense.
  • Positional: central halfbacks are playing the ball between themselves; if attackers and wingers have the high attribute they are able to exchange positions.
  • Players with the high attribute are running more on the pitch, it can be checked after the full time in score properties of the player.

Team work is causing some confusion on the PITCH but it is bringing measurable effects in case of good mastery of the situation by the player. And one more: notice that it doesn't have to be quite necessary to gain success. It is worth too check which team have the average value of the attribute, and if they are playing well.

Zones

They're five of fields under the surname of the player. One of them is always marked. It means the shifting zone in the formation. The more red it is the further formation is moved. If we are playing it for the right goal the most red zone will mean: players are moved to offensive. It is being operated with: L1 + R1 (offensively) / R2 (defensively). It is possible to check it in the time of performing the throw-in. More about this option is in the further part.

Starting the match you probably noticed on the radar, that players, which don't possess the ball at a given moment, are more concentrated (contrary to players which possess the ball) on the pitchs width to the center or moved to the ball direction - Formation - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Formation's behavior

Starting the match you probably noticed on the radar, that players, which don't possess the ball at a given moment, are more concentrated (contrary to players which possess the ball) on the pitch's width to the center or moved to the ball direction. It is obvious thing. Let us do math: the pitch has an average of 70 meters of the width, with 4 defenders we have zone of 18 meters for every defender. If the defense is located on the width of the penalty field it will result in 10 meters for the player. You don't have to be anxious about centers then, since there are yet wing halfback. After all we are defending the goal rather than wings, thickening the field only will help us.

As you can see, red team is concentrated on width of the line of the penalty field, i.e. 40 meters. - Formation - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and WalkthroughAs you can see, "red" team is concentrated on width of the line of the penalty field, i.e. 40 meters.

If our player gets the red card his place won't be replaced with somebody else in the formation. We have to do it manually.

Players' form

Word about the form. It is presented in the form of arrows. The more upwards the better. If they are pointed up, some attributes grew (although it can't be seen in the window) and the weaker player with such a form can be really good. It's contrary with arrows down. The horizontal arrow is pointing the normal value of attributes (that is the player is such what his attributes point to). It is worth testing it in Match Mode -> Exhibition where we are able to choose the suitable form. The player with the weak form is shooting poorly penalties and is losing fast his stamina.

For the red arrow values are changing from 6 to 12 units of the attribute - Formation - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

For the red arrow values are changing from 6 to 12 units of the attribute. For gray from 6 to 12. Near the yellow cross (light minor injury) the value will fall down from 18 for 32.

Dealing with pitch's pictogram

In every submenu of the formation we are able to view players' (L1/R1, on the right-hand side from surnames):

  • the position and the number,
  • stamina and form (extremely important thing), if we marked the Cumulated Fatigue option it is the belt under stamina which marks fatigue with many matches,
  • cards,
  • executors of constant fragments of the game.
Brown bar, i.e. Cumulated Fatigue. - Formation - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and WalkthroughBrown bar, i.e. Cumulated Fatigue.

Additionally (L2/R2, pitch's pictogram):

  • player's position
  • player's number and position
  • level of the involvement in the offensive game
  • level of the involvement in the defensive game (the bigger arrow the better)
Players movement in the moment when team possesses the ball. - Formation - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and WalkthroughPlayers' movement in the moment when team possesses the ball.

Substitutions

We are making substitutions here. This strange hexagon is able to help us within comparisons. ATT - the attack, TEC - the technique, STA - stamina, DEF - the defense, POW - strength of the shot, SPD - speed. We can see the dissimilarities also on the attributes screen. We are making substitutions with X. If we have made the substitution already but it wasn't yet performed we are able to cancel it proceeding same way we did the substitution.

On this screen we are able also to see cooperation of players with the Team Work attribute. Pressing once we will see attribute values referring to players of the same team. Pressing the second time we will see lines with colors corresponding to values of cooperation. Shifting after players' surnames with we will notice dark field appearing on the pitch's pictogram - it is pointing the best positions (Position in the review of attributes L2/R2) for players. It is possible to see players also from the substitute's bench.

Saving or loading the formation.

Direction of played ball is perpendicular to the grass. The quality of executed throws depends on attributes - they are characterized below.

It is possible to support itself with the radar. :-) - Constant fragments of the game - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and WalkthroughIt is possible to support itself with the radar. :-)

Corner kicks

O

Center, additionally immediately after releasing hold on the direction left or right - spin, strength of the passing.

O ~ R2

Center, additionally immediately after releasing hold on the direction left or right - spin, strength of the passing - higher than previous.

up + O

Centre, more flat than first, in the English style, it is not different from the first type considering the force, spin, strength of the passing.

down + O

Centering on the ground, strength of the passing.

X

Passing to the nearest player.

MENU Select a kicker: Free kick accuracy - the most important thing, only refers to accuracy, Curling - ability to spin, L- pass accuracy - doesn't matter, Shot power - doesn't matter, Shot Accuracy - doesn't matter, Dominant foot - in dependence on the player's preference (certainly e.g. it is more goodly to center right-foot being on the left side).

It's good to choose as executors players with good Free kick accuracy, Curling, Long pass speed. Additionally it is good to consider star at Outside. To center on good one with Heading and Jump and on high player of course. Stars at attributes Positioning, Post player and Scoring Ability also count.

It is very good to spin the ball in the goal area line i.e. on sixth yard and additionally nearby to short bar. Goals look showily from the center to the line of the penalty field; it is very rarely a success. It is possible to spin into the goal directly.

Free kicks

Executed single

[]

Shot, additionally immediately after releasing direction left or right - spin, strength of the shot, 24-32,33 meters.

up + []

The very light shot, strength of the shot, spin, about 24 meters.

down + []

Shot, the bomb for the goal, strength of the shot, spin, from about 33 meters.

(any kind of the center)

Obvious.

X

Passing to the nearest player.

/

Perpendicular passing to the nearest attacker.

O

Centering to the selected direction.

It is possible to use centers described in the corner kicks without any problem too.

Executed double

In order to include the second player in the action it is necessary to hold on to L2 through the half second. We will be able every next holding of the button to choose the side on which the assisting player will be stand or to exclude him from the action.

Apart from combinations described with single executing we have the possibility for execution of extra movements here.

L1 + X

Pulling out the ball by the assisting player with simultaneous shooter running - chance to perform the shot with [].

L1 + /

Passing executed by the supporting player to the nearest player.

L1 + O

Centering in the selected place, executed by the supporting player.

Change of the direction of the strike

(any of shots) ~ L1/R1

Change of the direction of the kicked ball. L1 - to the left side, R2 - to the right side.

(any of centers) ~ L1/R1

Change of the direction of the kicked ball. L1 - to the left side, R2 - to the right side.

I am recommending testing this trick on the training because of the considerable difference in the send/changed direction.

Behaving of wall at the defense

[]

Everyone in the wall is jumping.

X

Everyone in the wall is standing still.

O

Some players are running toward the ball during the shot.

It is possible to combine above-mentioned keys: O + X and O + [].

MENU Select a kicker: The explanation refers only to direct shots: Free kick accuracy - the most important thing, refers to accuracy only, Curling - ability to spin, Long Pass Accuracy - doesn't matter, Shot power - it is deciding of strength of the shot, if the player is shooting from over 35 meters it is playing the significant role, Shot accuracy - only at indirect throws, Dominant foot - if you have only one player who well executes free kicks than this parameter isn't important, when you have Beckham and Giggs it is obvious that dominant foot may be a key.

You should choose as executors players with the good attribute Free kick accuracy. It will be also helpful additionally when spinning Curling and star by Outside, for strong shot Shot power. There is no absolute importance at this fragment of the game Shot accuracy.

There is no such thing like e.g. R1 + down ~ /. It's no need to add X and /. Shots with these keys are the same as without them. This is an error of Konami (the same is in Training Menu/Controls). Old method from PES 2 for shooting free kick exists but it is more difficult to perform because of the modified system of shots. How to do that? Striking from the margin of the line of the penalty field press as short as possible center (you may use even R2). The ball will fall into the goal at big luck. It is possible to shoot from this position under the wall also: down + O (strength in relationship on the liking: more power=quicker). It is possible to try in this way also to shoot for the long bar, where the goalkeeper is standing. It is sometimes possible to mislead him.

If you are shooting with spinning add somewhat bigger strength (about 1/10 bar). In my judgment players with good Curling slightly spinning the ball kicking without putting pressure of spinning. The ball is flying to the direction in the same way as shooting with inner part of the foot. The difference is able to be half meter with twenty meters distance to goal. Remember, that the quality of spinning doesn't depend only on attribute, but also on the part of the foot, which we are spinning. With inner we will spin considerably more than outward. This second style is actually without importance - the change of direction is minimal. Roberto Carlos' style (determined on the menu of the edition with number 3) lets double-sided spinning the ball at the kick. If we are executing the free kick from the right side of the goal we are taking right-foot with good Curling and we are arranging the direction of the ball by the wall from the right side. Similarly from left. With free kicks executed from wings of the penalty field it is possible to try to center, but best is low: up + O, the indicator of strength should not exceed the 1/4 of bar.

Throw-ins

(cursors) - arranging of the direction of the throw-in.

X - short throw-in.

O - long throw-in, additionally we are using strength of the throw, Long throw is counting.

/ - throw of the ball played perpendicularly to the nearer player.

Penalties

There are six points on the goal: the left/bottom, the left/top, the right/bottom, the right/top, the center, and the center/bottom. The success depends on Shot Accuracy, Shot Power, the important attribute is star at Penalties. The advantage of shooter will be the arrow upwards (down just the opposite). For goalkeeper it will be: Response, height and additionally star at Penalty stopper. Looking at the foot of the player it is possible to sense his intentions.

(direction: the left, right, the left/bottom, the right/bottom, the bottom) + []

Shot for the goal in the selected direction.

[]

Shot at the center of the goal.

(direction: the left, right, the left/bottom, the right/bottom)

Parade with goalkeeper, without the direction defense of the center of the goal, hold before shooting, it isn't necessary to additionally push as it is in other games.

If we will press nothing with shooter, the player will shoot after a while to the center. In the time of running to the ball, we will obtain the flight of the ball to the suitable side holding the suitable direction.

Preface to control

Winning is the target but in order to do it is necessary to know basic issues of the control. How many? Best all. I know it isn't possible to know everything but all kinds of passing and partly shots are real basics. It is necessary to learn differences between types of pressing - especially knowledge about speed of the run of players in particular modes is a must. Certainly knowledge of the basic range of feints will be useful. Learning to control doesn't come easily, the time and intentions are here the key. Option of the training with the possibility of repeating actions is the outstanding form for mastery of almost all passes.

Playing PES5 with the keyboard isn't the quite bad idea. It is possible to perform almost all combinations. Certainly we won't perform passes with the analog. The keyboard can sometimes the block up the cache. Unfortunately there is no remedy for that.

However we will perform everything what is being found below with the suitable pad with two analogue buttons.

Symbols

All symbols are described for the form arranged towards the attacked goal. The player is facing the right side and he is attacking the goal on the right-hand side also. Some combinations are described differently but it is marked in the given place suitably.

These are particular buttons and schemas of pushing them:

X, /, O, [] - buttons on the pad.

L3, R3 - buttons of knobs of the analogue control.

LEFT ANALOG, RIGHT ANALOG - knobs of the analogue control, also the direction is usually given (in parentheses).

+ - performing of the combination of buttons, simultaneous pushing in two or more buttons.

~ - releasing of button pushed earlier, after the sign the next button given in the example is pushed usually.

~ + - holding the button pushed earlier and pushing the next one, given in the example, sometimes this symbol is occurring after oneself, then it is necessary to push and to hold buttons.

2x, 3x - number of pushing the given button.

Basic

Regardless of the state of the ball

Every of assumptions presented below don't have to be met at the given moment of the action. There are no guidelines determined completely, they are only probable. Dependence is resulting from:

  • attributes - there are no players without attributes, there are only players without high values,
  • players' form - the player with high form able to win the match, it is necessity (!) to play on this player particularly if he is quick (Pace), a he is good dribbler too (Dribble Speed),
  • current result of the match - it was tested. Attributes are increasing at a given moment for player of winning team; losing players' attributes are falling. And therefore it is so difficult "to return to the game". Values of attributes are increasing too (exclusively) at ends of parts of the game - only, when team is losing. Attention: if attribute Mentality is high (above 90), it can happen just the other way.

There are four basic movements of players: the passing, the catching, the shot, taking back the ball. Mastery of every element in the basic mark doesn't guarantee high victories - it is helping only at playing the ball. The rest is lying in the player's competence, especially taking advantage of the attribute Teamwork and knowledge of the own and the enemy's formation.

Passing

We are able to pass to every of eight available directions - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

We are able to pass to every of eight available directions. Certainly not every will be so accurate as the attributes are pointing for it. There is principle that five directions are most accurate. The rest will depend on the high attribute Passing acc. Passing of the first ball (and in the run or the sprint) are usually less accurate, about the 1/4 value of the attribute. Let us not forget about the long passing - is very easy to intercept, but extremely effective.

Centring

It is possible to pass to any place in the penalty field provided that the player is located in the given zone - the ball will always be directed at his direction - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

It is possible to pass to any place in the penalty field provided that the player is located in the given zone - the ball will always be directed at his direction. If nobody is in zone the computer will take the nearest player in other, adjacent zone. If nobody is in the penalty field, the ball will usually be played to the center of the pitch.

Shooting

Three positions of the player are most accurate - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Three positions of the player are most accurate. The rest depends on the attribute Shot technique. Every shot performed at the posture of the player changed of 90 degrees in the attitude to the goal, will be marked by the weak kick of the ball (small speed). It will usually be wide too, and not infrequently high. In this position we can take good shot only with [] ~ R2.

The technique of the shot is describing the moment of the kick and the height of the sent ball. You also should know that the moment depends on player too, who pushing the key of the shot is sending the height indirectly - especially at shots from the first ball. For example, when the ball being centered for the attacker is pointing the chance to kick (not head!) from the first ball, we will notice then that the player will try to execute the shot in dependence on the ball height. Almost same situation we find when heading.

There are two speeds of the shot bar existing. The first is essential and is occurring in all situations apart from of the ones mentioned in second. This one however is showing up when: shooting from first ball, as well as when the player can't perform any movement, because he is in the first phase of the catching the ball. It lasts about 1/5 second.

It is necessary to mention "Driven Shot". It is specific kind, possible only to perform when giving the shot from the first ball. In order to perform it, it is necessary to push [] at the moment when the ball is falling. Intention realized well, will be resulting in the very strong shot, kind of the lob.

If we stop the ball with R1 or R2 and we perform the shot from this position, it will have features as performing [] ~ R2 - controlled shot.

1-2

Very effective move, although initially hard to learn - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Very effective move, although initially hard to learn. There are two variations of this combination. One of them relies on the passing and running away, other on passing, running away and giving back the ball with one of methods. The most simple is X ~ R2. It can serve not only to exchange passing, but also to creating "chaos" and immediate attacking - a few passes performed in this way will be enough to create combinative attack. X ~ R2 and L1 + X are identical moves.

Nuances of the formation and the strategy

Two hypothetical formations, completely not suiting to oneself. It is possible in theory to bet bigger chances on "blues", however we don't stay behind rivals thanks to few tricks in the strategy. It is the demonstration of course of one match when using the following formations along with the discussing on more interesting pitch behaviors.

"Reds":

Simple 3-5-2 formation. Advantage: tightening of the central field of the game, usually effective locking the rival on the own half. Disadvantage: three defenders are not giving full covering of the line.

Line up Team strategy: Back Line A, Zone Press A, Offside Trap A, Counter Attack A.

"Blues":

Offensive 4-5-1 formation. Support of wingers for the attacker, giving the opportunity of the full maneuver in the counter-attack. Advantage: immediate transition to the attack, outstanding possibilities in the positional attack - even play with eight players. Disadvantage: too small tightening of the center of the field sometimes.

Line up Team strategy: Back Line B, Zone Press B, Offside Trap C, Counter Attack A.

Initial set up of players - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Initial set up of players. Let us take note on two defensive helpers at "reds" - they will be accompanying us during the meeting nearly through the whole time. Let us look at the line of defense both of team. On 40 meters of the width at "blues" are four players; at "reds" only three defenders have to fulfill their tasks.

On time of executing of the corner kick the shift to the attack of four reds players is occurring - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

On time of executing of the corner kick the shift to the attack of four "reds" players is occurring. One of wingers is executing the throw. Three players are waiting for the counter-attack in the center of the field: CF, LWF and RWF. Their only chance of the escape will be disperse to wings and the individual sprint to the direction of the goal and possible subsequent center. Two "reds" DMF will try to underwrite opponent's actions supporting own defenders usually on wings.

Theoretical advantage reds in the middle of the field isnt giving the certainty for lack of the place to blues for playing the ball - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Theoretical advantage "reds" in the middle of the field isn't giving the certainty for lack of the place to "blues" for playing the ball. Tightening the formation in the width is the effect of the arrangement Back Line A. The problem is, that at the given moment three attacking "blues" are ready for immediate run to the ball. It will be sufficient to run them with the high perpendicular passing. But because we arranged for team "reds" Zone Press A, thanks to pressing we are inclining enemies to retreat the ball into the range of their defense.

Two interesting facts: reds defenders are individually covering blues attackers; reds LMF is being kept an eye by blues RB - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Two interesting facts: "reds" defenders are individually covering "blues" attackers; "reds" LMF is being kept an eye by "blues" RB.

Line of reds defense arranged dangerously high is theoretically guaranteeing the ball return to the blues half - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Line of "reds" defense arranged dangerously high is theoretically guaranteeing the ball return to the "blues" half. But don't forget about three attackers, one error of the defense and the attack will be taken in the very big area.

Situation almost similar to previous, but on the other side of the pitch - Nuances of the control - World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Situation almost similar to previous, but on the other side of the pitch. With moving the formation "blues" are presenting "reds" in the way: positional attack.

What manual, s-auto, fix mean?

Manual - the player's exchange will be executed manually, especially at lack of possession of the ball. S-Auto - the player's exchange will be executed automatically; the tolerance depends on the quantity of arranged lines. Fix - explained below.
