From podcast above
Notes of what they discussed. Its unreadable
Impressed with the graphics, they reckon it looks better than PES 2013
Game feels very different. Different level of freedom and timing to the passes, and the flow of the game.
much more realistic pace than PES 2013. Slower more methodical game.
They were stunned, everything feels new, completely different game way bigger difference between 14 and 13, compared to 12 and 13.
feels like a 2K game- complement
They cant wait for people to play
Gameplay Looks faster on youtube, than it really is.
Videos don't do game justice
THEY ARE EXCITED blown away by the game- stunned
Game is what they've been asking for. Hardcore game, you'll have to relearn.
They went back to PES 2013, cant play it any more now looks like a PS2 game.
TruBallTEC- The BALL IS ABSOLUTELY FREE (best news IMO)
Ball never felt stuck to the feet.
Players sometimes even run past the ball and leave it behind.
Crosses are not automatically won any more defenders and attackers fight for the ball and stretch for it but can miss it
First touch controls, very impressive, animation is cool, extremely important you get the ball under control before deciding what to do with it
Ball physics- Spin on the ball is great, the players sometimes find it difficult to control, especially the balls from the air, they use use different parts of body to control.
Realistic ball movement through the air
2-3 players fighting for the ball, doesn't look they are in complete control, midfield battles because of loose ball
2 footed control they can shift the ball from one leg to another real quickly to get away from tackles.
Animations are smooth and realistic, like watching a real match the way everything flows
FULL 360 DEGREE CONTROL-
You can move the ball in any direction etc.
Players fight for possession using their arms and body weight
Players move their arms to keep to keep defenders away
Foot more planted, more sense of weight, ie. changing direction affects the way you control the ball etc.
sliding animations is awesome. THEY ACTUALLY Slide, once they worked out out how it works they used it a lot.
Weight shifting with right stick you shift into defenders to protect possession
tonnes of new features
Massive learning curve- IT doesn't play like PREVIOUS PES.
No relearn like all the previous pES. ITS A BRAND NEW GAME. Anything that worked before will most likely not work now
Reference yourself to the real game, and use that sense in PES 14 (sounds Amazing, just how I want it)
Players sometimes jump into each other to win ball, even in the air.
PES ID
Animation wise being taken up a notch, including keepers, i,e keeper yelling at defenders
Team play They didn't mess around with the team tactics. You can now send two players on runs
Combination play- types of runs are much different from one team to another
Gameplay
KEEPERS
too slow to react to free kicks. lack of awareness? keepers get hands to the ball but it still goes in at least happened twice.
Everyone complained about this.
In general gameplay they are very good, only 2 goals in open play.
Keeper stretches out with one arm and made a stunning save, but then later weak shot spilt, and a little slow to react.
Other times reaction really well. Animation shot was too hard but got on his knees and pushed it to the side and not spill it in front of him
Solid enough, confident about the keepers. I know the keepers in PES 2013 was a problem for me, tehy were awful at times
DEFENDERS/ DEFENDING
Slide tackle is so rewarding- Defender completely stretches out if its required.
Quite a few animations for slide tackles
Intelligence of the defenders was pretty good. but in the box they were not great, slow to react.
Defensive awareness needs to be brought up, ie on rebounds etc. (aaaaaarghhhhhh)
Awareness in general play is a bit lacking including keepers strikers.
Double x tackle, they go for the ball wherever it is, and not lunge for the player. Always go for the ball. They like it.
They react well to passes and try and intercept. They were disappointed with this in PES 13
Jockey for the ball bit slow, but the whole game is slower, They dont move as fast when jockeying.
defending overall a step forward. Able to intercept better, pretty solid, but wants general awareness of players to be improved.
sometimes defenders try to get the ball even when they have no chance of reaching it
PASSING
very solid, very free, theres air on passes, can still ping pong but more
difficult to PP alway to the penalty area, easier for defenders to defend against.
Everything flowed well and not frustrating
Through passes are great, lot more freedom than before. You can pass the ball where you couldn't before, because of 360 degree controls
They tried 0 on passing assist, feels really free. 4 bar is not assisted as before.
through ball has separate assist levels. Didnt feel cheap.
Can play different styles, doesnt feel restrictive., i,e long balls, or midfield play, etc, flows very realistically, Ball is its own entity really opens up the game
crosses felt great, weight to it, felt control over crosses, but didnt experience that crosses that much.
Over hitting and under hitting through balls a lot, difficult.
Passing not on rails
didnt try 1-2 with lob return
SHOOTING
All the animations on shooting improved.
Difficult to shoot, felt free, maybe not on assisted
lot of shots just wide,long shots are difficult.
Easier to hit lower shots, to hit higher shots you have to fill the bar a bit more.
Headers feels less auotmated than previous PES- lots of defensive headers, different animations, solid contact with headers.
DRIBBLING
felt amazing,
Sprint dribbling can be difficult.
Have to think about dribbling movements, cant freely go where you want, you have to create space, very impressed with dribbling system
When you open space for yourself, its very rewarding, you have to plan what to do next not just use sprint button and go.
some of the right stick moves wasnt working properly
if you move the left stick lightly, theyll take little touches on the ball
, keeping it under control, big learning curve.
good balance between defence and attack, maybe easier to defend
REFEREES.
penalty for perfect tackle
some bad calls.
Quick throw ins
Keeper can tell defenders to move up or back
keepers can do fake throws, no more * balloon style throws, Direct.
Freekick
Right stick to pan the camera, left stick too add curl to the ball, guide where the ball to go . 1st try on free kick goal- TOO EASY
player switching could be a bit more responsive
Responsiveness needs to be tightened up (everyone complained)
TOTAL Play time about about an hour and a half
Genauso wie damals alle PCs zu schwach waren für FIFA 08-FIFA 11 für Konsolen, und als der PC dann die neue Engine bekommen hat, sind die Anforderungen genau gleich geblieben.
