Im on PES 2016 (R2) and for me personally, 1 on 1 matches are fine (Online Division, MyClub, etc) but its the team play lobby that i experience lag. Sumtime its bearable but past few days the lag is quite bad...

would like to know hows the R3 online experience, can someone share?

sorry for being noob too. some people play football for gameplay experience and PES provide more authentic experience to them. it's up to you what you want in your game. to me, i dont mind incorrect names etc, as long as i dont get repetitive gameplay for most of the game.
just my opinion..
on a separate topic:
The referee this year is very strict, which is waaaay better than last year. but sometimes i feel like the "advantage system" is broken. e.g: my player just got lightly tackled but my team still hold the possession, but the ref still stop the game -.-".
The keeper is definitely better!
