PES 2017 PlayStation & Xbox Discussion Thread

I undersand what you saying. But if played on manual that Lukaku shot wouldn’t of hit the post like it did. May have gone in or missed completely, so what makes something scripted or unscripted?

Surely if the game is going on stats, it’s conpletely scripted, using player stats as a path to follow. Very difficult for a company to find balance there when programming.

PES2014’s balance system was down to user input only, not stats and it was a complete mess, same like the features in FIFA 16, precision pass, no touch dribbling, etc: they are not stats based, but user input based and it doesn’t feel right.

As much as I like PES14 R-stick control for balance (my favorite feature), that's a good point. It's too clean, based on user input, not enough stat-based errors...yet another flattened thing. Good point about stats = a form of scripting....it's pretty hard to find the balance.
 
same here.
@aussiefan, hey mate, iv purchased the game via the US store and in 24 hrs time will be playing it.
U lucky son of a gun jimi...I did same last year...US version, then later AU physical copy as I couldn't play a few of my Aussie mates on line(they all got Au ver). So this year I've gone the physical AU version from eBay supplier city_of_games...bought it only few hours ago, n the seller reckons he'll have it in stock ready to express post either tomorrow 13 Tues, or 14 We'd...so hoping to get it we'd Thurs or please god no later than Friday...JB n EB..both updated their release date to 22nd sept...stuff them...

Does the AU version share servers with the EU version? Or are they on their own independent servers?

Also, does anyone know if the American version in 17 will be on American servers, like the years before?

disappointing they still have the game region locked.
 
In the Brasileirao Serie A are some teams who have missing player names.
You have to edit them.

For the following teams some player names are wrong:
- Sao Paulo
- Corinthians
- Internacional
- Flamengo
- Fluminense
- Santos
- Chapecoense
- Coritiba
- Vitoria
- Ponte Preta
- Botafogo
- Paranaense
- Figueirense
- Santa Cruz
- Mineiro
- Recife
When someone makes a patch that fixes all this, not just the correct kits etc... I'll pay for it. (I tried to fix all this myself last year and it was a nightmare, especially when you have 15/16 and 16/17 versions of some of the South American teams, i.e. loads of dupes.)

Any app. that we can use to open .bin files?
Nothing yet.

If someone cracks the encryption, I'm really excited. The files don't appear to be encrypted Sony save files that you can't break down because of the security measures they have to prevent trophy cheats etc., they seem to be Konami's own files (still encrypted but with no Sony stuff over the top) - and if someone cracks the encryption, then there are plenty of talented people who might put together a PC-based editor for everything within the file, which would make every patcher's life a lot easier (especially gameplay-editors who could make global attribute changes a lot more easily).

it's probably gonna take a month to get it all right, hopefully the import team function will make it quicker

It's not that much work if you're using pesmaster. ;)

The PESGalaxy OF for PS4 will include this and it's for free. Don't pay money for Option files!
 
... I know this has been asked previously (and I apologise for not being assed to find an answer and asking it again instead), but if I do get and option file (thinking of buying pesuniverse's which comes out on release date), does this affect the day one official update that komani are supposedly releasing day one??? I mean, when I get the game, should I first dload the day one update from konami, and then import the pesuniverse option file... or first import the pesunivers option file and then the konami update.. or does one just use option files (meaning its not necessary to dload konami's official DL's apart from patch updates??). Again im sure someone has already asked this, so I apologise in advance ... :)

btw, when I say pesuniverse, im also referring to any other option file on offer... as im still undecided which one I will go for. I have nothing against buying a product that people have put hard work into, and that increase the joy of my gaming ..

I didn't know that, that's great.

I just love the PESUniverse kits, but I've not looked into PESGalaxy. Does that come with kits too? Isn't that the one that Klashmann's working on realistic tactics for?
 
Desperate to get it early (but not so desperate that I'll buy it from the US store and have multiplayer issues) so I've pre-ordered with ShopTo. Should arrive on Thursday, but there's a slim chance of it arriving on Wednesday.

Can't wait any longer.
 
They work against you.........Ball wasn't even hit hard. See how the AI was right there to tap it in.........so scripted.....

Yup this is what I'm talking about, so convenient for the striker lol

Notice the boring near post pass the AI always did in previous games.
 
Im not being stupid in thinking that its in the UK stores on Thursday 15th?

Id go digital or even order online, but im going to flip in a few games I dont use.. so might as well go to a store and get that done.
 
Placed my digital pre order after another awesome session on the demo. Some nigglely little things they meet to look into

BTW I tested that pass around the back on superstar and it didn't work the AI hunted me down.

Felt like an idiot even trying it tbh.

Different teams will yield different results. It will be based on Frontline Pressure vs All Out Defence, and/or the aggressiveness of pressing settings.

What it generally means is that, if you're playing online, you'll probably want to have an alternative formation which is press-intensive, so you can switch to it if somebody tries to exploit the game.

I'm very jealous! The UK store version unlocks at midnight on Thursday, but ShopTo (they're a UK retailer) usually send the game out early (in-fact, I've just spoken to their support team and they've told me they're sending out orders today and tomorrow, so HOPEFULLY it should arrive between tomorrow and Wednesday).

This desperation for a game takes me back to being a kid...

You're a bigger man than me Deco, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the demo about five times now. Couldn't even stop myself doing the webchat thing with ShopTo and asking when they'll post it (I noticed that the release date is Thursday rather than Friday). :EMB:

I don't like that. If Joe Hart was in goal I could see it, but that's an easy grab for most keepers. Still, after many hours with the demo I'm quite happy with the keepers this year.

Yeah not great, but like you I'm pretty happy with the keepers this year. The above is fine if it happens rarely enough, players make mistakes... imagine if Lucas' pass to Vardy on Saturday was done by the AI!
