Just because you aren't talented enough to use the manual passing on PES 2009 doesn't mean it was crappy, once you master it then it's pretty impressive what you can do. It wasn't quite 360 in 2010 but it was 16-direction which was a big improvement on the 8 way passing from 2009.
I always heard it was useful, but it took a lot of practice. But PES did rush this out after FIFA announced late that they had 360.
Just because it was
supposed to be in last year when they implement it this year as the default passing system it doesn't mean it's not a
new feature.
It may not have been "360" but it was their attempt at countering fifa. I remember reading on PESgaming about it (back when I thought the forum was worth a ****) It's certainly not a new feature, they are simply expanding on the passing system that is already in the game.
It's different because of the power bar, it's more like FIFA's throw ins now where you have more freedom of who you pass it to. Instead of two players near or just throwing it long.
I hate throw ins for this reason, completely useless. Have you received a throw in on BAL? If you move, the throw in taker still throws it to where you WERE.
I'm not saying they are
good. All I'm saying is that there are
new because you said that there was nothing
new at all in the video.
And I said that last year was supposed to have all sorts of new animations, and we didn't receive that many. I didn't really notice that many new animations other than the new tricks (couldn't tell if they changed dribbling animations which was one of the biggest gripes people have). I'm not going to bet the farm on 90% new animations, because in videos the developers can show you what they want to show.
Yup, which is still a
new feature. Might not be good, but it's
new.
Again, I've said PES has promised this before. I guess since it wasn't in last year, I guess you can consider it "new" but it's still an "old" promise.
You can use the right stick for tricks. Haven't you read the first couple of posts?
Right stick for PES2011? I was talking about 2010, and I see no place on the PC version to change any of the dribbling options. As of now you have to use bumper and trigger buttons mixed with left stick.
Then what video were you watching? Seriously? The last half of the video is all Cope Libertadores!
Guess I lost interest by then.
Yeah, but it's the actual kit model that's changed. Not just the texture. I'd find you a comparison picture but I can't be bothered going through the trouble for you to just ignore it like the video.
Really have no desire to see kits in the game that show off ripply man muscle...just another eye candy feature that has ZERO purpose.
It's true though, you clearly didn't watch the video at all and just thought you'd say your pre-determined thoughts.
Listen, I've played PES for years, the past few have been awful. Every year we hear new promises about this and that, and every year the game is fundamentally broken. This year is the same ****. They show you a trailer produced in order to increase excitement about the game. The promised "new" stuff has been promised for last year. Last year they didn't come through on those promises, but this year I'm supposed to throw away my money blindly believing they will follow their word?
They sacrificed PES2009, in order to work on their new graphics engine and features for PES2010 (or that's how konami put it) and PES2010 was lackluster. They admitted to spending most of 2 years preparing PES2010, with all the promises I already mentioned, and they failed. Now we are seeing the same promises for 2011 that they had 2 years to implement in 2010.
Let me sum it up for you. PES was so focused on their new graphics and eye candy (which is wonderful really) that they never got around to fulfilling game play issues and promises. A video in which they show 3 cuts of one animation that fulfills the same function as letting the pass go through you to the next person is not impressive IMO.
The AI (both ref and player) in the game is bad (not as bad as 2009), the physics are largely poor, and the player hit boxes are absolutely horrendous.
You can have all the promises of better graphics, tight man shirts, and a fancy power bar that you want. But if it makes no improvement on the quality of game play (which is something PES used to pride itself on) it's not worth the cd it's put on.
I'll concede that the fancy power bar could improve responsiveness. Edit: Also I like what they did with ML, it just needs a few more features.
