Now watch the fucking space, gentlemen..
All the clips shown on twitter, players clashing, getting all tangled, stuck together... you know whats coming, right?? You know how they will fix this?? They will dumb everything right down, make the ball magnetic and on rails again and remove physicality.

The one thing thats at least interesting is the new dribbling mechanic, there seems to be some burst finally

Passing is even slower than last year, so boring

Graphics i dont really care, but grass should be doable at least
 
Maybe they should have just made the fox engine game cross gen and then ftp like LITE was and call it a day. Because this just sounds like a mess...

Like with pes 14. Although that game still survived in it's original form in some way.

But yeah, expect it to become pes 16 before long.

I honestly implore everyone NOT to watch this space. It's dead. The ones who enjoy it, sure, enjoy it and talk about it all you like.

The rest of us... Get it out of your head. This has been coming since June 2020 and some of us STILL had to play it to believe it.

Pretend it doesn't exist. Stop looking at it and hoping it looks different the next time. It's not going to get back to PES-levels of football recreation ever again. It's not called PES any more for a reason...

...IT IS A MOBILE GAME. A fruit machine that barely functions. It's not for us. Let the people it's for have it. Move on.

If you need PES in your life... There's a back-catalogue that contains some of the greatest eras of football that ever existed. Get an Xbox Series S, switch dev mode on and download all your favourites. Rediscover your youth.
 
Boy oh boy. I am going to completely have to re-write the script I kinda prepared to make my video come out a little faster. Wow. What a miserable turd, and it has nothing to do with any of the new stuff by the way. The feel -which is what made PES great, is completely gone here. Words fail me to describe what happened here. This game has absolutely nothing to do with everything that made PES great. They completely scrapped the gameplay and rebuilt it from scratch, and everything feels wrong. Nothing feels right. Nothing feel proportional to my input or to the player momentum. I feel that my player run isn't contributing anything to the final outcome of any kicks. Player movement on the ball is a mess. Off the ball? Extremely programmed and mechanical, with zero context to the opposition. They just mechanically move to their predesignated spots. While I'm on the ball, off-ball player movement is nowhere as nuanced or complex as it used to be in PES.

At this point, I suggest they take the rest of the year off, and work to bring back PES's feel on unreal.

The additions are in the right direction, but god what a turd of an execution. Don't get me started on player responsiveness. Too many negative points to cover. Sigh.
sorry mate, don't know what you expected when you saw that they reduced tactics to 5 preset roles. just shows the game is a shell and completely scripted to even be as playable as it is now
 
Proper respect to my Bros from Konami, NEVER thought they can outbid the disaster from PES20214...

and they really deliver and make the ultimate Shitshow... don't know many Companies who can fail like this and treat loyal fans and community over and over the last couple of years and finally, they got their masterpiece...

RESPECT !!!

 
Downloaded it last night. Haven't play it yet as it was too late. But I'm sure it'll be good, since SpankMe PleaseMom said it was great and proved it with an Excel sheet with lots of goody scores, so there's that and I'm not worried at all.
 
So they said only 9 teams?
Yet i can select all of the English Teams Serie A Serie B and so on..
Playing with Napoli right now..

Do they even know what they released here?
 
Barebones game with few good ideas, like the new dribbling and pace system, that absolutely doesn't excuse the sad state the game released. Could be a nice game in a few years. Until then, either play FIFA or older PES games. There's a reason they made it F2P, asking money for this would be a crime in some countries. Just move on is what i would say, It literally has exibition mode only.

Just a total lack of investment or r&d in new technology.It’s the base of earlier build of pes(probably 14 with a unreal skin).

Demonstrates that just don’t want to do anything new,just recycle the same predetermined gameplay.There just in a endless cycle now of remixing the same tired ideas and gameplay.

There biggest guilt is milking a tired IP.Milking there fans and using past glories and glossing up the same tired technology.

There’s little doubt this is about making as much money as possible with minimal investment in gameplay.I genuinely believe they think they can market and sell content for this purely off the back of player likenesses and because it’s football.

Even a casual gamer will see this as just hollow and something that belongs in another era.
 
What an absolute fucking joke. It took them an extra year to make THIS?
You need time to take something that used to be good and praised, and properly undermine/ruin/break it enough to be sure that there's no turning back.
It's not something you do in a week.
 
Having spent a substantial amount of time with FIFA and then Efootball, I would like to note some things.

FIFA is still FIFA for better or worse, it is slightly slower than last year but still does not come near to recreating the 'feel' of football like Pro Evo has done in the past few years. It exhibits strange glitches and AI behaviour, shooting is overpowered from distance and angles. I can list so many problems here but there is no point because no matter its faults, this time around FIFA when compared to eFootball, it is like a masterpiece.

eFootball immediately offends by offering only a 5 minute match for local exhibition matches, this solidifies my thoughts that this 'release' should be considered nothing more than a demo with a larger selection of teams and some online functionality and modes. The game is not done, it lacks fundamental mechanics all Pro Evo players have utilised over the years.

Teammate pressure is non existent, the tactical options are ripped out, the menu colour scheme offends, the team management screen is archaic, menus in general are horrible and slow. Gameplay suffers from poor AI positioning and coverage, weak passing power boggles the mind, shooting feels off as well, it hurts to play this game. You are struggling to wrestle control away from the AI decision making within the code.

Through balls are so overpowered and nearly impossible to intercept unless you pack the midfield.
Players constantly fail to track runners, the ball or generally cover areas of potential danger. There is a noticible delay from when you take control of a player and when they start sprinting in the right direction and speed, especially when defending space. Flicking the right stick to change player feel very unreliable now as well.

Graphically it is underwhelming to a high degree. Nothing much to add here, just watch some footage of it.

Playing online, the connection is quite good, barely any lag but the gameplay issues are just so in your face you can not be left anything but stunned at the incomptence on display.

This release feels like a Demo/Alpha they released to combat the release of FIFA, with more substantial updates planned in the coming months it seems like the only likely scenario considering how bad it plays when compared to PES2021 (which is a wonderful game in my estimation).

There are some positives here in terms of gameplay but there is no point in listing them when they are covered in a sea of mud.
 
Ok let me write down my impressions
First of all I download pes 22 in both version pc and PS4.
I play about a dozen games in my laptop ( HP omen 16 gb rtx 2060 ).
First sock …..the game is in 720p only 1600x900 ?!?!?!? ?!
Second sock ,.,…..????? Only 5 mins games and in two levels medium and veteran .
No rain no snow nothing . Come again !?!?!?! Only 5 mins games .
Now on the field .
Ok two years preparation for what ? The animation in 90% is the same .
the faces ? Ok let’s go on .
The game speed ? Even in -2 was not much off difference.
The worst here is that I do not know why is a player attitude called speed in that game .
It seems that all the players run with the same velocity .
A small difference in acceleration is present.
Players response ? Well yes is good is nice but for me it was hard to steal easy to loose .
The keepers ? Ohhh the keepers . Is so difficult to ask even from an amateur gaol keeper to create some good potitioning and animation all this years ? I believe is in the same level as pes 21at the best case .
the best thing was the ball physics . Yes is nice to pass nice to shoot and better to cross . For me . Perhaps not for everyone. The crowd ? In deluxe level good sound but graphics terrible at least .
at the and I believe that it is a very poor effort from Konami . The main target for me is the mobile phone players .
Every one has a smart phone . Few own ps4 even fewer ps5 etc etc.
sow I believe that is a downgraded game in compared with last year’s game who was actually the last year before game .
Konami say to as to give a change in this new effort. Ok . But were is the cheese to bite ?
I believe that Konami open the field for fifa new customers . Is this a year to try FIFA ?!? Let’s blame konami for that . Their choice.
