1) Set the Automatic Download to On and pick the time period.
2) Shut down the PS3 THROUGH the menu, it will then come up with an automatic download display, wait 30 seconds-1 minute, so the download begins.
3) Press the PS button, press the O button, go to the Network menu and click Download Management, and if you did the Automatic Download time period correctly it should be downloading the PES2011 Demo.

Done that, and still no joy. I get to the black screen with the white text saying something about auto download, press the PS button, o for back. Then the machine just knocks off.
 
OK I have literally just started my first game, made about 3 passes and had to come say that PES IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:BOP::WORSHIP::SMUG:

Im off to finish the game.
 
FINAL CODE :LMAO:

by the sounds of it you dont watch football on tv, keepers do make errors in real life too buddy, actually real life goalkeepers r capable of making even bigger errors, but as is said u wouldnt know that cause u dont watch real life football
 
I really don't feel this is as recent as the code I played, its very very close but the keepers seem to parry a bit more on this, in my games they held onto almost everything I threw at them.
 
Looks like FIFAs autopingpongpassing plus defenders who dont try to intercept a pass and goalkeeper who doesnt attempt to make a save and runs away. Jesus. The same old story as in PES 2008/2009/2010...
 
So you have only conceaded 1 goal on sixth difficulty? have you won all games on this mode?

I was reacting to the fact that the AI doesn't need attack exclusively from the wings anymore. I believe Top Player is still the highest level in the demo, apologies for the confusion.
 
the passing does look annoyingly precise and as if it doesn't bobble so players don't struggle with their first touch still



it's not the lack of first touch that fifa has but it's definitely not like pes5

Word. I'm actually asking myself whether he watched the game Argentina vs. Spain and the big mistake of Reina
 
It's a demo >.> there were errors with the demo of pes2010 that were ironed out, so give it a rest already.

Not sure why you are giving me that attitude, I do realise it is a demo. I'd hate to see that sort of goalkeeping in the release.
 
PES 2011 INITIAL DEMO IMPRESSIONS

I have just finished playing 3 games of the PES 2011 demo. All of my matches were against the CPU on Professional difficulty.

The first match I was Barcelona against Bayern Munich and I lost 4-3. The second match I was SC Internacional against Chivas and I lost 1-0 and finally the third match I was Bayern Munich and I won 2-1 against Barcelona.

I have played the MLO Beta extensively and this demo is a clear step up from the MLO Beta code. I was impressed to see that many of the bugs we had addressed have gone but not all of them. Player runs are more intelligent when off the ball. Player response feels sharper and the shooting is much better but I think thats due to me playing with better teams now. However L1 change player is still a bit annoying.

I really love the shooting. It just feels great. I managed to score a beauty with Sergio Busquets from outside of the box with the outside of his foot and it curled and dipped into the bottom corner.

Player individuality is more pronounced in the demo. Messi is extremely dangerous and has fantastic close control but he isnt unstoppable. A well timed tackle will dispossess him. Robben as you would expect is a great dribbler.

Stamina can be seen without having to go into the options. It did seem to have an adverse effect in my Copa Libertadores match. My tired players were pushed off the ball easily and shots and passes were misplaced and hit.

Referees are much more strict than in the beta or PES 2010. Had many yellow cards in my first match due to late challenges.

Computer AI is quite impressive. They play really well by building up play and counter attacking at the right times.

Goalkeepers are definitely better than the MLO beta but they still make some silly mistakes. Victor Valdes rushed out off his line and let in a soft goal into his near post.

I havent had time to try out the new defensive system too much or the tricks so I will look into it a bit later.

The graphics seem better than in the MLO code and the replay function is fantastic. My complaint about the camera not keeping up with the action is now gone. The camera moves quicker than in the beta. All my matches were in wide cam.

The audio is improved also. There is no commentary in the demo obviously but the crowd are far more vocal. You can hear new chants and they boo really loudly when certain challenges are made or when the away team score.

Whats really annoying is that once the match is finished and you want to go back to the menu, the Gamescom trailer is played each and every time. Its so long and you cant skip it! I have to quit the game and start it again. Also team rosters arent up to date but its just a demo and they will be fixed for retail release.

Overall im very impressed. Its a clear step up from the MLO Beta and I keep getting that one more game feeling. For me its already the best PES this gen and a definite buy for any football fan. :)

the same old lies, "THE FINAL GAME WILL BE DIFFERENT...BLA BLA BLA"

but OMG, this is the final build !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Everyone judging this game based on a few ten seconds videos, just don't, it's your loss. You need to experience this game before judging it, it really is a huge difference compared to recent years. I swapped PES for FIFA in 2007 but this year things are looking very different. I haven't been this excited about a new football game since the early days of PES 6.
 
Well we have only seen 4 videos so far.

And people are already judging everything, oh dear.

But the videos are showing the same things that have plagued Pro Evo for years. It hardly inspires confidence. A certain someone will probably be along in a minute to say its only 99.999999999998% code though and all will be well in the world

Thank you for that fair write up. This what we need, opinions from people that have played the demo. Not pseudo-opinions from people that watched 30 seconds of footage. That should be on the impressions thread btw.

LOL, so you mean that is a GK error and is programmed intentionally for GK to make general errors?

I say Its a BUG
And You say its a part of the game (PES 2011).
 
Demo is final code, there may be still some polish put upon PES 2011 for retail-code but not in gameplay-department, gameplay-wise this is what we will see in the retail-version.

That video above shows clearly that the AI was totally disinterested in the game suggestin it was set on a low difficulty-level, maybe regular or less.

I can't imagine that that was Top-player.
