Why did Celtic beat Barca 2-1?
Do you think it's worse or better than the first download that you played? I said that it was a hybrid and I think it is, you just have to look at the dribbling and shooting. This was done to try please all the Pes 13 cheerleaders and now that they have it they'll probably moan about something else.
To me the dribbling is more angular in turning as it was in PES 2013 and the shooting slightly overpowered and accurate but I still think the patch is brilliant. I don't take part in the "I'm always right" gang or I have to win matches the way I used to win them years ago.
The refs have an annoying habit of pulling back play for a trivial foul and the goalies are diving a split second too late sometimes but it doesn't stop me enjoying the positives in the game. I really don't know what people expect from this game anymore, it can't be tailor made to everybody's individual tastes.

Agree with everything you say here I haven't had w penalty as yet though but enough free kicks due to silly animations rather than foul play (if that makes any sense)
Before I buy any pes in future.
They must fix !
Scripting online and offline it's a joke.
The inept player switching
The stupid Ai of players on your team especially defenders that don't appear to recognize the friggin ball! either stand still or run away from it . It's just plain stupid.
Also fix the gks.
Having said that I don't expect to being the game anytime soon cus they have not got a clue in fixing the above.

I don't understand why they programmed the refs to give a free kick after a player shoots and a defenders momentum when trying to block or tackle carries him through the player long after the shots gone into the stands.
It's not even a foul in most cases, a strange one to put in. I'm not going to let a couple of small inconsistencies ruin the experience for me. I think it's a great effort from Konami, superstar is very challenging and that's the way it should be!
I haven't bothered with this year's game because performance was really bad in my system - gt630, dualcore 2.8 ghz, 4 gigs of ram. Thus I'm stuck with PES13. New patch seems intriguing from the feedback, I'm curious has performance got any better? Any optimizations for older systems perhaps?
Well, on consoles no one has that problem now does it? Maybe you should post that in PC section, but don´t mind doing it right now, as the PC patch hasn´t been released yet.

Don't know which version you referring to but on ps3 keepers are much improved and the defenders are great, both ai and your players.
Are you preempting the direction of the pass and moving into position or doubletap X to lunge out and either intercept or tackle?
Also player switching is hold L1 and flick right analogue and I seldom have issues in this regard.
At least Celtic were under sustained pressure that day and Barça ended the game with 89% possession. I, on the other hand, was able to get a possession rate of 62% playing with Heerenveen against Barça, whilst playing my second game in weeks. That's just b***s**. I don't want to have the upper hand against them, I want them to destroy me.

Are you playing on superstar? That's the difficulty I'm playing on and really struggling. Lost all my games so far.

Can someone post a link of the option file they're using
Until now I can´t seem to remeber any video game that simulated soccer to that perfection, so maybe you´re expecting too much?
Tactically PES never came perfect out of the box, but with some tweaks on team tactics, you can achieve a closer thing and also harder. Try to tweak Barça´s tactics has they should be. Also, don´t judge PES dificulty playing friendlies, if that´s the case

Tried replicating your match twice. My effort in the first game to get anywhere near your alleged 62+% resulted in a miserable game of keep-away. An urealistic experience dominated by me trying to ping the ball around in my own half for most of the game so that Barca weren't able to get possession of the ball. Even then I was only able to keep the ball for 49% of the game. Going forward and playing a "proper" and more realistic game of football in the second match resulted in me chasing the ball for much of the game in a 2-0 loss while having about 40% possession.

Sth, sth ... dark side
IMO PES 2011 wasn't a good football simulation. Had an amazing passing system, tons of freedom, but defense was just terrible, anyone could just burst into to the middle. Plus the lack of animations, and very easy shooting.
To be true, in PES 2014 is much more harder to distinguished between an possession team and a quick counter or long ball has it as in the previous entries, but the gameplay is far superior.
Yeah you might be right about that, I cant remember it though. Think I didn´t enjoy pes 2011 as much as 2013, despite its flaws.

I'm beginning to like this more and more. It's really growing on me. I play on full manual.

A bit late, but that's pretty much my experience, though I can't say I enjoyed PES2012/2013 but it was tolarable/playable. And yeah, in retrospect, PES 2011 was sublime compared to everything else this gen (but was still a very flawed game).
@Ipswich69(I think): Maybe clunky is not the right word, but there's something really wrong with it imo.

I really can't believe the leap of the difficulty between pre patch and now.

Indeed. I'm glad shooting has been improved because you really need to take your opportunities when you get them. The old ineffectual shooting model with the increase in difficulty would have been incredibly frustrating.

Defo. I am playing on manual aswell, so it is even more challenging.

MAAS is shit or not even in the game. Never gonna forget when we played 2vs2 with my mates and once we ran into each other on the midfield and the players were constantly just running at each other for 1 second before they bounced from eachother and continued to run in their basic direction, no collision, nothing. Laughed our asses off it was that sad.

Ipswich69 is like his team irl.
1.10. patch impressions(thankfully got mates to try the "so called improvements.").
It is better, it made the game better in many areas, but it DOES feel like PES 2013 + 2014 hybrid.
The animations took step back or the transitions were just removed. Feels like PES 2013 on rails now.
MASS didn't really work right due to lack of animations supporting it.
The biggest change? The shooting power and accuracy is ridiculous now. No wonder people have games vs AI ending in goals rout. GKs are still positioning terribly at times leading to lots of goals conceded.
Och yeah and no matter what kind of player you get, you can score from 25 yards out now. Every player can shoot the ball with C. Ronaldo/Z. Ibrahimovic power. Way off... :/
I mean, can't PES Production do things right for God sake? Where is all those people supporting them hope coming from? O_O
The patch did change the average game into good one, but that's about it. Best PES ever? Hardly so. It's still off the mark for me. PES 5/6 is doing some stuff still better.

"PES 2013 on rails".
That's hilarious.
"Lots of goals conceded"
I'm conceding less goals now than I was before. At the worst, I'll concede 3 in one game against a top side. I've had a lot of 0-0s and 1-0s.
"You can score from 25 yards out with any player"
Yes, you can also expect to see the same rules apply to actual football being played at Sunday league level. Every professional player should have the capacity to score from 25 yards out. You seem to be insinuating that it's easy though which, like nearly everything else you've said, runs contrary to my own experiences. I've tried a lot of long range shots. I've score very, very few.
