It may just be me but I can't see how the latest PES is ever so different or worse than previous Pro Evo games, barring goalkeepers, shooting and passing......okay I see your point now lol.
So they obviously need to sort out the afformentioned broken stuff in any future sequel, aswell as adding stuff they previously took out even the little things such as player kit changing before a master league match aswell as player match performance bio at full time....also should the master league be overhauled they should have the league formatted how they used to do it, with Rugby Super League rules whereby if you were the league leader at the end of the season you wouldn't be crowned champions unless you won a mini tournament at the end of the season with the top 4 - similar setup with relegation also.....not the most realistic but in terms of playability it made things interesting and more fun....also they should bring back the ability to poach a player on a bosman at any time although he cannot become a player for you until the transfer period....this is realistic and I have no clue why they took this option out. It adds to the strategy of being a manager in Master League, if you keep ur eyes open and manage to land Fabregas, Ronaldo and Torres all for nothing but player wages all in one season, quality stuff. Yet Konami in their wisdom decide to take options away from the player ??
I think so long as Konami fix the broken stuff and re-impliment these things or at the very least give us the option like we currently have in the starting ML 11 initially....then PES 9 could well be something more like PES we know and love and more importantly more like PES we know they are capable of. Something we frankly havn't seen yet since the advancement into Next Gen for the series. Unfortunately....Konami now need to stop trying to refine at this point and just stick to what they know and rebuild that way. Otherwise it's a downward spiral and FIFA will be taking over sooner rather than later.
