Thanks Konami for this Demo.
This helps saving money...
First year I will not buy a soccer game. This demo is a huge disappointment for me. A lot of things are very good and improved to last versions:
- passing works fine
- teammate AI is much better
- graphics and animations
so far so good, but:
Response and reactiontime is so damn bad - what were they thinking about?
It feels like a torture for me to play it, dribbling feels not right to me, but the worst is shooting. if you are not sprinting it takes ages after pressing the button if the shooting will be executed. WTF?!?!
Once you running with speed it's ok - than the shots are quite good. At all this is so annoying to me. I hated this all the 15 games I played so far.
Other negative points:
advantage rule?!?! does not exist!
tackling is great, but still clear tacklings are whistled as comitted fouls, too often - still bad.
set piece system: WTF?!?! Why changing a well implemented mode to replace it with such a stupid one?
Chipped through balls are still way to easy and effectiv.
Too many things that piss me off, right from the first seconds of playing the demo - not a good sign to me...
I have the feeling they were concentrated in implementing shiny and fancey feints and tricks during the gameplay, too much. For me this is useless crap as long as I stuggle with this unacceptable response and reactiontime. I don't know if this is an issue that comes with slower pace of the game itself. In general the gamespeed is quite ok, but response needs to be improved. Unless this will be corrected, no PES for me. Using SPEED +1 or +2 in final game is no option for me, as online it will be 0 - and I usually play with my mades online due to the face they all moved to different towns...
I really hoped this would bring back the feeling of good old ps2 era, but it doesn't. At this point Konami lost the first of two last chances to give
us back a propper PES. I will wait for next years PS4 version. If this is not improving at all, I will quit with PES and all soccer games, because right now FIFA is much more worse...
This breaks my heart a little bit, because I am / was really addicted to PES...

Luckily this year GTA V comes and will dry my tears very quickly...
