eFootball (All Platforms)

The only way to beat Konami is the creation of servers for PES 2013 or 2021, like PES6 has it now.

I read somewhere that Konami stopped the project for new server for PES 2013, surely they will defend their interest in case a server for PES 2021 would appear.
 
What a pathetic even that was... the 30th anniversary of Winning Eleven, it's a big deal, and what do we get? A bunch of cards that'll become irrelevant in a year when the next update to eFootball comes around and that content is lost completely. How do we still not have Master League or other offline modes in this? Not even an editor for the badges and kits? It started with eFootball 2022 and we're going to eFootball 2026 soon, this makes no sense to me still.

Do we have any information on Konami's profits?

Is this model genuinely better than what we used to have? I don't buy it, the PES name, the Winning Eleven name, were a big deal, and eFootball started out in a genuinely pathetic manner back in 2021, it still looks poor graphically, most kits and badges are fake with no way to fix them, and it's still a title that most people seem to mock when it's brought up... was it actually a success for them in the long run? If not, why do they insist on it after all this time?
 
Hard capitalism isn't enough anymore. It requires a quality product to sell to the consumer.
Their new method is to make the lowest effort possible in the actual product,
& instead focus on marketing & manipulation of a new young generation of gamers.

For us, the loyal WE/PES enjoyer, they have lowkey told us for 5 years, "we don't want or need you here anymore."
The win/loss calculations have all been done.

The AI will replace 9-5 workers, making pretty picture cards & stat changes. It can simultaneously be the support platform,
AND send out bots in social media to gaslight any ciritism.

"wElCoME tO tHe nEw wOrLd oRdEr" - some greasy suit.

Enjoy it while you can suits. Because in reality, every action has an equal & opposite reaction.

We're getting scarily close to 5 years without Master League, imagine telling someone that back in 2021

With all respect, how can anyone be surprised about this? I am saying the same thing for the last 4 years: Konami LIED to us the fans, when they released PES 21 for 30€ (which was in fact just a patched PES 2020) because they were focusing on the next gen PES. But in reality their plan was always to release this sorry excuse for a football game and they just wanted to take money out of our pockets one last time.

Nothing Konami does since then should be a suprise to anyone.
 
There’s a video about the event on the main menu of the game that you watch to claim 1000 efootball points that shows the Twitter comments about no master league, that is a strange thing to show.
 
If the level of effort that went into this big grandiose 30th Anniversary they were promoting isn't indication enough, then just give up hoping now. They're like an ex wife, you loved them so much at one point in your life but they've changed & not the same person anymore.

We've just got to accept Konami doesnt take offline gaming seriously & it's not a priority of there's.

…and this about sums them up for me. It is blatantly obvious by now that ML is never returning, certainly not any time soon.

However, the utter contempt in the way in which they treat fans really irks me. They have pretty much disregarded the loyal fan base who have built the franchise up over the last 30 years.

At least have the decency to be transparent and communicate that you have no intention of delivering a game for offline players.
