It looks as if the one major gripe gamers had with Pro Evo on Xbox Live is set to be sorted out!

During the last few months gamers have found playing PES on Xbox Live more of a chore than been fun. Until now gamer who were going to lose a game would quit mid match to keep there stats for suffering a hit. Anyone that has experienced one of these "premature quitters" will know how madding it can be.

Gladly it looks as if Konami have been listening to the PES fans cries of anger and have released an auto update for anyone that plays the game online. Any player who now wants to quit mid game will no longer get to keep there stats in pristine order, infact if they quit mid game they will be dealt a 3-0 loss and a hit to their stats which they so preciously tried to protect before.

As well as this important correction to the online game Konami has also addressed the lag for players taking on the role of client.

Is this just for the 'quit' option or disconnects in general? because people can easily unplug their Xboxes from the wall.

Problem with that is it doesnt take much for someone to inflate their stats with free wins.

2 XBL tags... one keeps dropping and the other benefits.

it still surprises me that games have to be "fixed" in order to deal with quitters. any game that is made for online play and has a ranking system should have things in place to punish quitters. thats like the first thing I would be working on.

Untill they let me play online without the stupid stupid auto change player (which you can turn off in offline play) I won't be playing. The game annoys me enough with it turned off, turned on and I may end up with a snapped disk.

[Edit - Oh yeah another thing, why the hell do I have to have the gamertags above the players! its 1 v 1 I know which team I am, I don't need to be reminded!]

There are several fairly significant problems with the online system, this just being one among them.
