Just for the record, Muller does have the First-Time Shot Player Card.

This is an argument I can see both sides of, still not sure where I lie with it though. In once sense any player should he so wish, attempt a first time strike. But, in real-life, technique wise and confidence wise, a lot will always look to take a touch.

It's fucking miles better mate, on the pitch, where it should be. Soooooooo much more responsive, how it wasn't released like this is beyond me. But, better late than never.

Keepers are much better at the near post, at least from what I seen so far. And shooting just feels 'right'.

We can argue about the keeper positioning being too good, but lets be honest, last year they were a joke. And 35 yarders with Ledesma and his magic boots were ten-a-penny.

Playing a Europe League game now, 2-1 to the Boro, and every goal felt right and rewarding.
 
They haven't fixed the issue where player form is green for everyone when playing league/cup mode with 2 players. I'm back to PES 2013 :BYE:
 
Data Pack is still only at 83% after an hour of downloading. Why are PES updates so slow? I can download a 7GB game from XBL in about ten minutes.

That's hardly a priority is it? can see it being fixed in future patches, surely the responsiveness etc was more important to be fixed?

NO! it should have been fixed in the first place. this patch should have been about rain or snow, not about goalkeepers not standing right or the color being wrong.

same issue here on 28% after 2 hours!

Jeez man, fuck the Data Pack for now, you need to see what's going down on the park.

I certainly wasn't waiting for balls, faces and transfers that I've already done.

Onto my 4th game in a row, it's so much better. It's actually very enjoyable now, and the goals feel great. Instinctive. It's about the responsiveness. It always has been, it's the nature of the sport.

I'm very happy. :)

I think you may have to wait till an updated one is released to stop the conflict.

Actually I found an only slightly painful way of doing it.

Edit a player, eg start to build a face so that he becomes a bald guy with a generic mug, or change his shirt name or something.

Then go back to where you select Create / Edit a Player. A third option should appear - List Altered Players, or something. Now you've got a list of all the players who have got these buggered up faces. You can now just press triangle (or Xbox equivalent) to reset that player to default. You just have to do this for each of the 80 or so players - all in all it probably takes 3 or 4 minutes. Not ideal but it's barely the length of a song and you end up with all your kits and a Tiote who isn't in whiteface.
 
Much more acceptable and enjoyable but still a ton of issues and bugs remain. Let's hope there is more to come because they are on the right track...

Anyone dare to test the ML regen issue. In won't be starting one until I know it's fixed!
 
Loved the game before the patch but it feels much more fluid now. Shooting is better, running with the ball is better, player switching is better. Not sure about the keepers yet though and latching onto loose balls inside the box still doesn't seem responsive/quick enough.

Thanks for that bud, I will give that a whirl. ;)

6th game in a row, great sign.

played a few games on 360, not sure what to think yet. Need to keep playing, honestly not seeing too much different, will report back later.
Click to expand...

Yeah me too, my 360 version was fluid and responsive to start with so I'm not noticing any difference where that's concerned.

I'm not sure what to think so far. Main points are:

POSITITVES

- I scored a long range goal! That said, I hit a 35-yard shot that looped and lobbed the keeper rather than a proper drive.

- team mate AI feels slightly better, players making better runs.

- the game feels more enjoyable due to being more competitive in midfield. The AI seems to close you down a lot more.

NEGATIVES

- WILL THE AI STOP PASSING THE BALL TO THE NEAR POST!!! It doesn't work and the AI keeps trying to do it.

- shooting feels identical to me so far.

- I can still seemingly score with ease by shooting then tapping R2 immediately after. The ball lifts up a few feet over the on rushing keeper, and worked every time pre-patch. I'll try it some more, but it's a game breaker for me.

- I've already scored a goal where their keeper pretty much ran too far over one side of the goal and left a near open net.

- keepers are still seemingly absolutely woeful at saving downward headers.

- if you initiate a team mate run off the ball, he STILL sprints for roughlyhalf the length of the pitch.

I dunno. It's more enjoyable but there are far too many issues not fixed for me. The game is still far too focused on playing lofted through passes for example.

First match after patch and obvious instant improvements are responsiveness, shooting and lower defensive lines. Still got a very minor freezing issue when taking a shot that goes off target though.. But not as much as before. Also noticed a strange thing which is even more faces are gone after the latest patch(without DLC yet). Ibras and Busquets face were gone for example. I just hope konami are not deleting faces and re-implementing them and then say +800 faces:BOP:
