Christ get this guy a razor blade or some rope :lol: If you compare it to PES4, which is what you should do as it was the last pes game, it's a massive improvement!! Some of the stuff you say I just don't see personally lol. Also I hardly think the development team are lazy :shock:
I call them lazy because they don't iron the obvious mistakes they could easily do. They have a better game than FIFA so they don't try hard to make it better. They just realease a bunch of BETAS along the year to milk more money.
What was I expecting? (not really, I knew it wouldn't happended, but I would liked it to): For instance, non-scripted deflections. Haven't you noticed that deflections are always driven to the boots of someone, normally the CPU player? That's crap! In real football the ball is free. In this game neither the ball nor your players are free. Players still run in RAILS. It's absurd having to do a special movement to get out of the path!
You don't see the cheats? All CPU players act like robots, it just doesn't matter the stats of any player. Beckham can follow the ball through the entire pitch in sprint mode. In replays you can clearly see the CPU players doing 2 steps for every step your player do. You can (I tried it in WE9) put all your opponents stats to 1, put a absurd tactic to them and nothing changes. The game would play exactly the same, because there's a kind of superscript trying to balance the game and keep the scores tight. That's why a lot of shoots go to the post (you don't find it strange to have 2 posts per game?), they try to have an epic drama in every game. So if you are far better than the CPU and scores one or two, they turn into semi-heroes. That's unnecessary.
Haven't you ever noticed that on 1 vs 1 against goalkeeper, a lot of shoots tend to go straight to the keeper although you were aiming somewhere else? Look replays and you'll see. Also, I dribled the goalkeeper outside the area, continued running and... heavens above! the goalkeeper CHASED Henry! Ha ha ha.
All this things are seen by a LOT of people in the forums, installment after installment of the series. I think it's time they redo the gameplay engine, because, being BETTER than PES4, it's in the same path to scripted experience. Actually, I feel I had more movement freedom before, for instance, and now I feel all the things terribly constrained.
I'm talking about 5 or 6* difficulty levels, of course.
Of course, you can't disagree, as the vast majority will do. But after the WOW, when you try to play a master legaue, you discover all this things to make the single player irritating.
