The more I play, the more frame rate issues seem to appear (PS3). I've just played a friendly with England against the Czech Republic and for large parts of the game it was near impossible because it was like watching in what I can only describe as "Jelly-Vision". It was as though the cameraman never knew where the ball was and was either playing catch up or just had a very bad case of the shakes.

Anyone else have this problem? It seems to appear mainly in rainy weather for me

Totally agree with the officials being on the pitch, one thing PES has right. Also that means you don't have to always go to a cut scene for a caution (booking) and it gives the option to put quick free kicks into the game.

There also seems to be a large element of cpu predetermination in the game. I just played as England at home to Estonia. I could almost ignore that they were faster, sharper, stronger and as part-timers, had more stamina. What I found harder to take was the fact that, as a game I was clearly supposed to lose drew towards the end still at 0-0, 9 of my players decided that they would not move out of my area, under any circumstances. If one player broke with the ball no-one would move upfield with him so that the opponents (getting faster and slicker by the minute) just kept coming back. Even when my keeper caught the ball 9 of my players just stood still in the area and wouldn't move. I thought the game had crashed but it hadn't. It had just decided that I was not going to be able to attack.
