PES series - "The Return of the King"

It looks like OF's on Xbox One will be possible, but not on PS4 as it stands. It's all in Sony's hands now.
Nothing remotely possible is going to be possible before holiday 2014, that's when a sony employee supposedly said the update for media files and other stuff drops and even then it seems like a stretch.
 
PES6 on PS2 is one of the all time greatest sports and video games. It boggles my mind just how good a game it was and how mediocre most of PES games afterwards were.

PES6 was so crazy good and influential, I don't think I played a sports game remotely as good ever since. 10/10 game if I ever saw one and easily one of the best games on an already ridiculously high quality PS2 library.

I guessed as much. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
 
Has everyone completely given up on edit mode? Jesus Christ if you want to put club emblems on the game just do it yourself lol I can't tell you how addictive doing that stuff was on pes 14
Who the hell wants to add shirts, emblems, stadiums etc manually on the console versions!?

Back then it was fun. Not anymore. At least for me when one got a job or school to attend.

And you seem to really have something against FIFA. Relax, both games are good games.
 
So last year PS3 OFs were a doddle but X360's were a faff on

this year XBone OFs will be possible but PS4s wont?

Why did I buy a fucking PS4. This is not progress.
 
Got mildly hyped last year and even that proved excessive, didn't enjoy FIFA 14 either. Hope at least one of em grabs me this time, that OF bullshit would be a deal breaker though.

PES5 still GOAT
 
I'm actually on the brink not picking up PES this year. I just can't deal with no custom OFs.

But maybe the demo can change my mind.

PES6*
 
Licenses don't matter.

In the old days PES was more popular, everyone played it, all my friends etc

Then it went to shit and FIFA improved, now my friends play that and won't even touch PES, and tbh who can blame them?
I wouldn't be surprised if FIFA sold more than PES even in its heyday.
 
I still don't understand what kind of bullshit Mumbo jumbo legal voodoo EA pulled to say that PES can't have a fake German league...... How the hell is that possible when one of the most notable leagues on PES is a fake Barclays league?

PES has the FIFPro ("world players' union") license which allows them to use the real names and likenesses of players in "all" local member associations. The English member association is fine with it, the German one (through the legal case fought by Oliver Kahn years ago) isn't. The Bundesliga completely sold out to EA (with their site regularly featuring their crap match result "simulations"), licensing single clubs is still possible but even those mostly (except for Bayern) sold out to EA for some match day in stadium EA FIFA game areas.
 
I think this game looks like Arcade crap.
FIFA has taken the throne in 2009 and the gap is wider
then ever.
Who wants to play Spain vs Brasil @Allianz?
If Konami does not spend money on licenses why would you pay them full price to play Westfalen vs. North London?

This post makes no sense.
 
Anybody who knows football will understand just fine.

FIFA is getting boring year after year, players model look like sh#t, the pace/flow in game is nothing near to a real football match up, yeah game modes are cool, yeah licences but EA is just making money without improving this game, oh corner + head = goal, oh L1+Triangle = fucking unreal pass no matter if your player don't look where is the one receiving the ball... Core gameplay is in PES favour.
 
PES15 was going to be a deciding factor on if I get the PS4, but if they can't have modifiable files, then I'll just stick with a PC. This same type of thing happened with All Pro Football 2k8, with the PS3 having non-modifiable files. Every non licensed game needs as many options as possible.

For all the reasons to get a PS4, PES2015 is not one of them.

There are countless great exclusives. PES is always superior on PC in my experience.

Just so you know, most goals IRL come from set pieces and counter attacks.
The L1+Y has not been really powerful ever since fifa 10.
PES is simply an arcade game, shots from outside the box are 60% of all goals, those players look like robots and there is NO physical contacts.

I am not saying PES should fold, because competition is good for anybody. I wish PES would find its niche, like a story mode they had in 2K14 or sth.

Well, I was trying to decide if I wanted a PS4 and have a small list of games that would put me over. MGSV is now on PC, so that's gone, but PES on PC was supposed to not have the same amount of animations or something, so I was going to wait and see the reviews, to see the difference between PC and PS4. But if you can't modify files, it's a nonstarter, and PES is no longer a reason to get a PS4. Now all I have left is Tomorrow Children, really.
 
But PES won't get the next gen treatment on PC this year.

I'm still interested to see what "hybrid version" will mean for the PC port. If PES2015 gets the gameplay right and its intact for the PC version then I would still favour that due to the modding possibilities.

They're both arcade games...
 
Pes 6 was the greatest football game ever

I disagree, still prefer PES2013. I hope PES2015 is good because i hated 2014 gameplay...

I am really woried about the lack of news about the edition modes, it seems that the game was probably delayed until November so they had more time to find a solution about file sharing on PS4/XBO. I really hope they can manage to make it possible before the game is released.


PS: Are you jaygrim, from evoweb???? :D

Come on now.

If they weren't half as broken as they are in 14 then it would be an infinitely better game to play.

Getting back to Pro Evo, I'll hold judgment until I've played the demo. Been burned way too many times hyping up recent games just to ultimately be let down upon release.

The OF situation is a bummer but in no way is it a dealbreaker for me. Gameplay always comes first.

Really? I thought PES2014 was the best PES since the PS2 era

Who's going to do the OT then?

The bolded is true..but it is something that can you can actually defend against with a little practice.

1) L1+Triangle is overused, and work weeeeeell, don't know if you have luck but on PS3 or PC it's a no brainer move, it's the kind of think that make me angry.
2) GKs are fucking dumb, d u m b
3) If players looks like robot in PES, you shouldn't be able to talk, animations in FIFA are awful, not saying every of them but c'mon just look at the celebrations, C3PO do a better job.
4) Goal come from passes, controlling the pace, rush from the sides, counter attack, personal exploit, steal, and modern football change a bit I most people don't try to shoot outside the box but back in the day that was pretty common.
5) PES physics is very so-so, but interactions between players in FIFA are not fair, sometimes biased. It's hard to find a good physic model.

PES core gameplay looks better, FIFA looks better overall

Konami is not very supporting PES, EA is aware of that.

No mate. Same username there too.

im concerned about the lack of info as well. Hopefullly master league is engaging.

Will retry 2013 and see what i think lol
 
Yeah, dunno what FIFA's he's been playing

Been playing FIFA since 09, the High Through Ball was the worst in 10, then EA Sports made it harder and harder to hit that "Hail Mary Pass" to Drogba/Zlatan etc.

Players in Seasons (mostly rookies, cheesers) simply hit those balls more often than they happen IRL, and they tend to play "Attacking" Preset, which leaves them exposed to those balls + they take teams and players (CR7; Robben; Alexis) that are really good at fielding those passes.
So you see alot of kick n rush games Barca-Real in the lower leagues 10 to 6.
Sucks but any MP game has "those kind of" players.
If you play agoinst CPU or skilled players who know tactics and defense, you will not see them often.

So you have to distinguish between Bug and exploit tactics by players.
L1+Y/Triangle is like the noob tube of FIFA not an issue with the game.
