Would that be the same Twitter account (no names mention) to whom I replied "You're putting lipstick on a pig here"?
Yeah, I think everyone is at the point where they're now pushing the boundaries of "we're pissed off but can't say it, so this is the closest we can get". Credit where credit's due - and again, absolutely truthfully, everyone I've spoken to from every PES community (even the YouTubers, from classic PES to modern PES) have been the nicest people to chat to. We all love PES. That's the bottom line, and we should all love each other for still being here after (in cases like ours) twenty years.
Do you have a link to that? I'm intrigued.
Hey mate, can you link me to this? I'm very confused what you're referring to! I've checked both the Spanish and English PESUniverse sites and can't see any such interview (other than a copy and paste of the IGN interview, which doesn't state the things you are talking about here).
I imagine the “Ps5 Things” would be the dualsense. It could als be the loading time but online affects that anyway.
KONAMI never realised the huge following of their game in Europe and especially South Europe (South America also). There were people within the community of PES who were capable to take the game into another level regarding realism and game modes/features. Their poor communication and questionable choices of the company's reps in Europe held the game back and people abandoning it to play a 3D version of Microprose Soccer.
You're spamming the forum with this question today. Please just ask your questions in the retro thread or you'll end up banned.
Sorry, of course. I won't do it anymore. But I would like to collect as many answers as possible. I really want to play. To do this, I need to understand which game is the best and go and buy it.))
If push comes to shove, I'd say the best game over that period was New Football Game Online Performance Test.
Oh, if that's the interview, we've all read it haha. It doesn't back up what vialli is saying
I think there are still sites and individuals I (possibly unfairly) think of in that way, but I don't think they're paid or anything like that - they just know how you have to act in order to keep your Konami contact(s). As I know too, after we lost ours years ago.
Without naming names (and please don't, because everyone I've spoken to from other community sites have honestly been such nice people, and are entitled to operate as they see fit, as are we) - within 24 hours of the announcement, certain people/collectives on Twitter went into overdrive with their tweets about the "big news". Whereas most of us tweeted / reacted in horror, certain places just said things like "big changes for PES", and it came across (to me and others I've spoken to privately) as really blatantly trying to gloss over the bad news. (Compare that with @Tom's RIP banner.
But those sites/individuals are simply "remaining professional", cos behind the scenes, you don't know what their conversations look like. And, again... The choice is, do that (communicate positive reactions, or neutral at worst), or you lose your contact, and your contact is your one shot for your feedback to be heard.
Now, of course, our feedback has never been heard. That's why, after years of maintaining a cordial relationship with the contact I had, I ended up letting my frustration get the better of me (in a manner that I truly regret) and severed ties with them, so that I could be "more honest" in an official capacity. But I made that decision despite knowing that attempts were made to pass on that feedback. Ultimately, once it hit Japan, it never made it out of the inbox.
Why? Because it was made very clear to the guy that only feedback that could be demonstrably tied to financial loss would be reviewed. Stuff like, "there's a bug on old versions of Android that means you can't buy coins". Anything else, they said, would mean dev time for no financial benefit.
...and that's exactly why we are here, where we are today. And it's why I'm sad that people are struggling to let go, and keep hoping for any good to come of this.
But my frustration was aimed at our contact point, which wasn't fair, because they were demonstrably passing on the feedback that we had.
Well this is utterly unhinged.
Not all PES gamers have the luxury of being able to use mods.
100%.
If they do, will you take pictures of your trainers for us? Someone needs to keep up this tradition.
Point proven indeed.
I mean, my shock at your initial post... I'd say unhinged is the word. I'm flabbergasted at how much hate's in it, and that kind of post is exactly why it was years before we could get Evo-Web to be taken seriously by anyone in any official capacity. They'd take one look at the forum and go "you're not interested in a two-way discussion, half the posts on your website are insults from people with no perspective".Maybe it was a bit of a rant, but certainly wasn't 'unhinged' as you call it, i've been around on this earth for long enough, paid enough taxes, and worked hard enough to be entitled to an opinion.
And you've pretty much consolidated my original point, you didnt share my opinion, so you went off on a personal insult fest calling me unhinged and saying i need a Psychiatrist!!!! LMAO
And I wasn't saying Chris SHOULD name names, I was genuinely asking him why he didn't, given that the common decency and sensibility he was showing was not reciprocated by any of the lying, scheming Konami employees.
Anyway, the thread is about PES, and despite your attempts to derail it and twist it into something more, I'd prefer to stay on topic. So consider this a mutually respectful disagreement and leave it there.
Well I'm glad you've been paying your taxes; that's certainly relevant to having a stance on these matters.
Yes, unassailable logic there.And you've pretty much consolidated my original point, you didnt share my opinion, so you went off on a personal insult fest calling me unhinged and saying i need a Psychiatrist!!!! LMAO
I think Chuny and Chris already put the point really well – the public-facing people at Konami, past and present, aren't really the enemy, and they get a lot of toxic shit from those who can't distinguish between the bloke at the customer service desk and the store manager. The fact you're still talking about them as "scheming" just demonstrates this really.
Oh, it was me who derailed the topic and not you who went off on one about "snowflakes" and "pussybitch little kids" – got it!
