AF “Whigs” (NE) –

  

= Fun: 

I’ve had this mettlesome for most a hebdomad now, and after swing in whatever hours of endeavor I intellection I’d place a hurried “first impressions” analyse up, and then update it after on. Just a taste of background: my terminal edition of PES was 2009 for Wii and I’ve played it nearly continuously for the individual eld I’ve had it. The curb that Wii programme gives you is pretty awful and addictive and it’s easily the prizewinning sports mettlesome I’ve ever played.

Other than assorted menus, the prototypal abstract I’ve detected is that the physics of contestant shitting and strength hit been updated to be more graphic – I haven’t played whatever more time versions, so this haw be the aforementioned from terminal year. It’s subtle, but it’s unmistakeable and a bounteous improvement, IMO. You crapper today separate after a ball way toward the line and kibosh & curb it, kinda than meet streaming discover of extent as in PES 2009. Not always, but these world-class athletes today behave more aforementioned world-class athletes. Another bounteous modify is that when retentive Z to push the contestant with the ball, your belligerent module today sometimes belt the another man over. Mostly this meet results in a liberated kick, though I’ve gotten a pair of chromatic mettlesome and digit rattling preventative penalisation squawk in the 89th time to retrograde a game. I surmisal the warning is that you can’t meet stop Z forever – at whatever saucer the push is likewise such and your belligerent steamrolls the contestant he’s pressuring.

I primarily endeavor Master League and that’s the exclusive conception of PES 2013 I’ve touched, another than to modify the EPL teams to their comely names. Champions League is today desegrated into Master League (finally!) and you crapper rename the FA Cup to the FA Cup (which you could in 2009, but for whatever conceive it didn’t attain the modify within Master League).

Now, here’s my bounteous disappointment: there is no more ordinal division. You move in the Premier League, and there is no relegation. WHY, Konami, WHY? Ideally I would’ve idolized them to place in MORE modify divisions, not vanish them altogether. Why not provide us 50-60 teams from apiece country, then we crapper modify them as we aforementioned and ordered up whatever verify of promotion/relegation we want? It seems that this wouldn’t be that arduous since it was already there to digit verify in time versions.

So, what this effectuation is that when I move with a aggroup of unknowns (which is how I aforementioned to do it) you today hit a 1.5 grapheme aggroup activity against EPL squads! In the time my low-quality aggroup would’ve been in the modify sectionalization activity against better-but-still-middling competition. Makes it pretty thickened to intend whatever advancement going. I revilement as such of the departed vegetation from my aggroup (it seems you move with a clump of guys with rattling slummy endurance so whatever of them are useless) at the Jan designate window, traded an old mover (with slummy stamina) for a such meliorate goalkeeper, and was healthy to intend a pair of beatific midfielders, but no reinforced strikers. With restricted assets to impact with, this has place me in exclusive a slightly reinforced function for the residual of the season. But that’s ok. Progress is existence prefabricated and it shouldn’t be likewise easy. But I had bids for 6-8 assorted strikers rejected. Oh, and there are farther less “bargains” to be found. No more teen strikers inactivity to develop for exclusive 250 points, etc. Overall the players seem more pricey – which makes sense, I guess, if we’re exclusive handling with crowning sectionalization teams. So farther with my slightly upgraded aggroup – but with ease farther likewise whatever slummy calibre players – goals are hornlike to become by, so I’ve got a aggregation of 1-0, 0-1, 0-0 & 1-1 results.

One newborn feature (to me, anyway, it haw hit been there in the past) is that you crapper today verify liberated kicks from a “behind the kicker” perspecive and opt the arc/curve of the ball – supported on the kicker’s abilities, of course. Kind of cool, and it’s pleasant to hit a taste more curb on liberated kicks.

So, overall, I conceive this is a bounteous improvement. I don’t undergo if it’s a bounteous modify from 2012, but that’s conception of ground I don’t acquire the update every assemblage for sports games – commonly the diminutive changes don’t reassert the price. But this is exclusive $20, so kudos to Konami for that. I’m rattling bright with PES 2013 so far. The gameplay execution are unchanged, for the most part, but the wager of the gameplay has reinforced for the better. I can’t move to intend whatever meliorate players up face to wager how that helps.

A pair more hurried notes: the in-game graphics are pretty such the same, maybe slightly better, but there’s exclusive so such the Wii crapper do. (I’m hunting nervy to a Wii U version) The cut-scene graphics are improved, mostly in the fact that the contestant models are more varied, and they’ve finished a meliorate employ of making famous players more recognizable, though whatever players today countenance vaguely cro-magnon.

Lastly – I conceive the AI is such improved. AI is digit of those effemeral things that mettlesome companies aforementioned to advertizer and provide flamboyant obloquy to, but I conceive Konami hit actually…
