Gameplay:
Improved player's off the ball characteristics (attack, defence,
teamwork), balanced quality of the teams - reduced the big difference in
quality between 'big' and 'small' teams, also balanced physicall stats
of 'star' and 'normal' players (body balance, stamina, speed, response,
mentality) and as a result of that eliminated so called "robot effect"
(situation where phisically much stronger players literally go through
weaker players); goalkeepers stats aro also much improved so now their
reactions resemble more to reality, also "BALANCE" improved for all
goalies so now they don't rebound stronger shots - as a result of that
rebound goals that irritate every serious PES player are almost
eliminated.

Improved Master league and other Cup/League competitions:
This is mostly as a result of balanced teams qualities so now every COM
opponent is harder to beat, and scores of other COM teams in the league
are now various so you can't have a situation as we had before when for
example after 10 rounds Man. Utd and Chelsea have 9 or 10 league wins,
this contributes to a very interesting competition that is closer to
reality where big and expensive teams can often loose or play draw
against weaker opponents.

AI:
Improved AI, especially player movements in defense because of improved
teamwork stats players (especially side backs) come back more often and
fill the empty gaps on the sides or cover opponents - as a result of
this it is very difficult to score asy goals from 5 yard box or one of
those goals when you give a return ball to your player standing 20 m
from the goal and then he fires almost a certain goal, these are well
known PES 6 goals and believe me with this patch they are very hard to
score because of improved goalkeepers and reduced weaker foot accuracy.
This is the reason why many people noticed that the game is changed
after they played this patch for the first time, especially if you use
Shollym gameplay option file which is even more harder and closer to
real football experience.

Visual improvements:
New stadiums with improved graphics and HD turf, real referees, real
trophies, TV scoreboards, new looks for menus and team emblems, high
quality kits, faces..

Atmosphere during matches:
Many consider this to be the best element of Shollym Patch, all teams
have their original chants and stadiums so in the beginning of every
match there is a feeling as if you were on the stadium! Also ball sounds
and referee whistle are changed so everything is closer to reality.

Other improvements:
Constant adding of new players and transfers, actualized player stats, new music background in the game...
