FFS, there’s people that are still thinking they did an update to the gameplay. It’s the same f&@&€ng shite.
This is what I dont understand. Why are you so angry about someone mistakenly thinking a patch is out?
He wrongly thought free kick tactics didnt work before, someone corrected him, the world moved on.
What he's probably experiencing is session variance, or the fact the game plays better in some stadiums than others. Or that it's so unstable it can barely hold its arse in place.
But so what? He made an error. Why is he worthy of vitriol?
First I wasn’t directing my post to anyone in particular, but to everyone that I am seeing on social networks, websites like that Italian one.
second I’m not angry, at anyone, so sorry if the “FFS” offended someone, I simply can’t understand, why people still give the benefit of doubt to Konami after all this, and still state that something was done when it clearly wasn’t . It’s been like this for years and look at where we are now. At every minimal sign of movement, be it from Konami or some influencer Pro PES, people immediately jump to the hype train, like neither of Konami lies, false hopes, non deliver, non communication on the last at least 10 years, matters. I refuse to believe that someone that watches, and plays football thinks that slow motion passing, dull and slow shooting, overpowered automatic defending with L2, and tank driving (player movement) looks like football. Just like FIFA super speed, and cuted animations , and tricks does not look like football. The only thing I can give that it looks like football it’s the pace of the game, and the manual defending without L2, and the good implementation of right trigger dash bursts/running (but this last is then outplayed by the shambolic movement and excess of momentum and inertia).
Everyone here wanted Konami to have made a good game of football, I guess no single person would lose their time here if they didn’t have a rest of hope for the game, but they simply did not delivered. They could have failed presentation wise or modes wise but at least if gameplay was something good as a base most people would still play it regardless. But if we look at it without rose tinted glasses, what did they get right:
Presentation - awfull, they even downgraded on this, didn’t think it was possible to be honest but they managed to accomplish that.
Modes - once again downgraded
Gameplay - downgraded, simplified, whatever you want to call it. Good pace, bad response times, exagerated momentum/inertia. Good seamless start without black screens.
Netcode - a little better but I guess it’s due to little to no people playing it, which shows on the time it takes to find a player. And if they have servers, why do I need to know if my opponent have 2, 3 or 4 bars on the connection? (Strange)
Tactics - downgraded
Controls - downgraded in order to simplify it once again (good addition on manual defence system except L2 execution) removing second man defense instead of just removing the ability of CPU to steal the ball, and removing of trigger runs.
Now this do not imply that some people might like it, millions played FIFA on past years…
