Goals and comps and stuff. Get yer rank up and it'll tell you via your phone.

Or just look at your phone in case you already got the message.


Ive had 2 messages saying theres a competetion in there and i should go.

THen be off!

The theme park is ridiculous.... however standing in front of the logflume is quit amusing

I've got a guy on my friends list who has 1000/1000 on the game and confirmed you do need 95% of the goals on Sick to get to rank 1, therefore I would assume that 80% on Sick would surely give you Rank 2? Must be close me thinks.

I think Spence is goood, he's won 100+ matches.

Online matches I mean
Serapth
The scoring part im fine with, tackling/intercepting passes i really suck at, any help is appreciated smile.gif
Rob.
Rang up about the Wireless today for my 360, should be here before the weekend, allthough ill put money on it NOT coming. Or if it it does come, it wont work.
JJBDude
For PES6 I tend to hold down X quite a lot to bring a 2nd defender to go and tackle the opponent, it's possible to gang up on a player 2 v 1 and it's quite easy to win the ball however if your opponent likes to pass alot this technique won't work very well.

Also just did every Chalk Challenge on Tony Hawk's Project 8 so I'm quite happy, done 85% on Sick now and have done research to find out you become Rank 2 at 95% and unlock the last goal, once you complete that goal you get to Rank 1.
Spence
When tackling someone, say there running at me, I never usually run to them until i definately have to. I'll just keep running back to keep my men back and they don't go around him. Then say egde of box, i'll just dive in with a tackle then.
Rob.
How do i get the free month of Live with Hotmail? And what game should i get this weekend if i go out?

Yeah this is a key tip which I forgot to think of. Too many people rush in with their players, always bringing them forward to attack the ball where a good opponent would take advantage and keep passing around so that all your players are in midfield leaving you vunerable in defense.
Serapth
Haha, you've basicly outlined everything i do wrong, cheers for the tips smile.gif
The_Champ
It's about timing and judging a situation mainly, practice is always a good one, but never dive in, Jockey the player and he'll tend to make a mistake.
Spence
Yeah, unless the player is either quite strong in which case he just gets past you, or has a bag full of pace when you might just decide to bring him down outside the area, and try not to be last man. rolleyes.gif
The_Champ
Honest mate just practice go in training mode.
Spence
I was disapointed with the training mode.

I was hoping to be able to practice corners/free kicks/penaltys etc etc but there not available on the 360 version. sad.gif Also, can't save replays and no international challenge annoyed me.
Rob.
Wireless has come wub.gif will try and set it up when my dad get's back. Is it easy to set up? and do you think it will work, my wireless will be on the obttom floor, and my 360 is 2 floors up. Will it work through the floors? Allso, are thye easy to set up?
Spence
It should do. I can access my wireless from like two doors down.
Rob.
Goood.

EDIT: YES! We can't even get it set up! Going to plug it in to the PC tomorow and a guys coming out on Wednesday to sort it out. Im pissed off to the max.

Yeah. Make sure to restart the modem and only have the ethernet leading from 360 to modem plugged in it and of course the power lead.

Yep, assuming you have already made a xbox live account, you just log in, put in a trail/subscription code and away you go
Rob.
I havent made one, where can i?. Where do i get the free month thing from hotmail? and on the front of Gears, i have a sticker for 2 day trial..
Meliv
When your 360 has a connection to the internet look on the Xbox Live blade on the dashboard for something along the lines of "Join Xbox Live"

Run through the instructions there and when it asks you for membership ask for a silver membership, assuming you entered a hotmail e-mail address that hasn't been used on Xbox Live before it'll then give you your free month of Gold membership

If you want to scam Microsoft then when your free month runs out make a new profile on your Xbox and do the same procedure except use a different email address for the gamertag. Hotmail addresses take about 5 minutes to create

Got my 12 month subscrription biggrin.gif
Rob.
im getting annoyed now. Ok, help needed. Just connected my ethernet cable into the back of the 360, and the other end in to what apears to be, the ethernet port, in the back on the computer. The first thing, Network Adapter, was ok, it said it was wired. it gets down to IP Adress and fails. What does this mean, the IP adress. Do i nee to register something? so far i have done nothing but plugged it in. Do i need to register or something, help needed as soon as possible.

Rob.
For christ sake.. I have no clue what to do.

There was no port for the Ethernet cable on the Modem, but we found something on the back of the computer with the same logo and plugged it in there. is this ok? Could anyone actually provide me with a site, or explain in simple terms what the hell to do..?
Spence
What internet provider are you with?
No.Fuschia
I'm guessing AOL. If so, youre gonna have to upgrade to gold on AOL and pay an extra fiver a month.

No, I'm on AOL Silver and it runs perfectly.

Patrick
Dunno, I got rid of the shite modem it came with and now use a Netgear ADSL wireless router.
I bought a Wireless Network Adapter for the 360 and picked it up perfectly.

I did some other IP shit when I was running through my computer, but I can't be arsed explaining that yet.

Are you hooked up like this

Xbox > PC > Modem

If so go into 'My Network Places' then 'View Network Connections' on the lefthand panel. Find the connection that is connection to the modem and right click on it. Click properties in the menu then click on the Advanced tab. You should have a checkbox that says 'Allow other network users to connect through this computers internet connection'. Make sure it's checked then click OK. Your xbox should connect now.

If you need anymore help give me a shout on MSN
No.Fuschia
Right when my brother gets his 360 i'll ask you then. If i get one i assume telefonica will work.

First time i plugged mine in it did that, i unplugged the modem and switched the 360 off, plugged it back in and switched it back on and it was fine.

Rob.
I will try again tomorow with all your help. No, im not on AOL. Im pretty sure it's Wannadoo but im not sure because i use Firefox and all of that Jazz. Meliv, thank's for the help. Hopefully when i try it, youll be on MSN so i can tel lyou whats going on glare.gif

EDIT: Meliv, what's your MSN?

EDIT-EDIT: Patrick, i have bought the wireless. it's currently on the floor next to me because we cannot set that up either. we have some technical doo-funkwa coming on Wednesday to sort out the wireless and XBOX.
