Is anyone actually enjoying efootball (2025) in its current state with most recent update?
For me it's still the best football sim in terms of gameplay. For me it plays so well (responsive, AI, on the ball controls) and feels so good (dribbling passing and shooting), and its ultra smooth (playing at 120hz on my 135" projector - obviously the steam version) with animations looks natural and better than any football game to date. Yeah turf and lighting could be improved to look more next gen, but animation wise, its pretty damn good.
I had a break from all forms of PES (pes2021 and efootball) for the last month, as I have been hooked on 'Art of Rally' (brilliant isometric/top view rally game) recently. So I just got back to efootball a few days ago, and its as good, if not better than the version i last remembered playing. Not sure if its placebo, but what ive noticed most is the extra variety with shots.... seem a heap more variations including low/ground shots performed by me P1, and by Cpu. I play on legend (sometimes superstar), in exhibition mode with 12min games, and full manual controls. Also, noticed the cpu AI seems to attack with greater variety than I last remembered, including certain players dribbling more and actually taking one or more of my players on. This was, and is still one of my major gripes with pes2021. One other major improvement I noticed, are the headers... With the right striker up front and in a good position, they now feel so much more powerful and dangerous when a decent whipped cross comes in. Keepers seem easier to beat with a well aimed (and timed) header on goal.
Anyways, I couldn't care less about even trying the new modes, just exhibition, so I was wondering who was actually enjoying the game atm?
