1.0 Review
Whilst Efootball updated after such a long time, the game is far from being in a fully stable place.
Allthough that is the case, the fantasy team gamemode has started in its most very basic fashion and all the controls and mechanics have been improved to now all be ''playable''.

- Improved all the basic elements and they work, now its a real 0.1 version early access beta (not a 1.0 tbh lol)
- Freedom of the stunning modifier making you able to do wind up shots/passes on your own terms
- Manual player selection option menu from ball or from player
- Big Serotonine shot during the Dreamteam Animation when packing a player. looks well designed
- Graphics up close, Face styles improved and are the only times stuff looks next-gen
- Little details like legends having their year on the type (Ofcourse for more content exploration (or exploitation?)
- Nice new league licenes like the J-League and North America (or Fake leagues with real life players)

- Still unoptimised
- Colour coded menu is still blinding
- UI in general is so simple, it only seems like the technical side of it works
- Crazy amount of Ice Skating on the players to make the animations work and link up to the ball
- Feels extremely on rails because of the point above, not in terms of controller to ingame actions freedom. But in terms of game offering freedom
- Even though its on rails player awareness can decline greatly (It feels very predetermined when a player knows where the ball is)
- More to the Arcade side (personal preference), It does not simulate the depths of football in terms of ball physics, foot planting, momentum or power, everything is simpler
- Can do everything in Stunning variant, which is good and bad looking at realism, only finesse shots cant be
done in stunning style because that becomes a canceled shot. LOL
- Breaks all type of logic and momentum and physics override for more video gamey player freedom
- Abysmally basic Dream team menu's
- Dream team ultra basic, Seems like they just want to start up the coin buying machine
- Freedom of choosing what to train on your dream team players. It can be a good thing but at the moment I feel like
it undermines the hunt for amazing players and inviduality.
- No 3D grass during freekicks
- Net physics feel like they perform at a way lower fps, they are also not detailed
- Scoring goals feel very lifeless to me because of this point above, but also because theres just no weight to it, no excellent ball physics
- Lack of obviously a lot of modes still, Not even the basic ones are in there, co-op or offline play and all that.

- Controller pickup extremely weird, doesnt pick up my Dualshock 4 in Settings.exe anymore. Steam override works but has some added
delay
- 60fps cap
- Making it also have no Vsync solutions
- No fullscreen resolution selection either

[h4]-- Still not sure about -- [/h4]
- The proficiency or player skill training styles choice you have to make forever on a certain player
- Durability of this multi year Dream team Fantasy game mode


Original Review:
____________________________________________________________
I can't recommend it at this state
PES turns into Efootball and joins the style of a Live service game, where updates can happen more frequently over seasons & years.

A quick pro's and con list after 4 hours of play.

PRO's
- The idea of the new dribbling
- The concept of the new defending mechanics
- Instant play from ball boys without cutting away
- Some Quality of life changes (Like Condition arrow stat updates shown in game plan)
- Some ''immersive'' clean extra (pre match) cutscenes
- Manual shielding

Negatives
- Menu's and UI + Colours
- Manual shielding (its a con and a pro because its implemented wonky once again)
- Graphics & Lightning, 3D grass, Crowd detail, everything ♥♥♥♥♥♥
- Animations & Sliding of animations
- Removal of a mega chunk of Player ID (all players walk the same and shoot the same except on fks & pens)
- Removal of player momentum simulations
- Removal of foot planting on animations
- Players forgetting where the ball is or running in a bended way around the ball
- Responsiveness of controls at times where the player has the ball 1mm infront of him but just takes a lot of time to respond or it just glides off and away
- The Physicality being the most glitchy thing on the new L2 physical bodying move
- Dumbed down Tactics, Extremely basic options
- R1 to fake an action like a shot, HOLD r1 for Finesse but Shoot + R1 after is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it, So you cant time when to transition into a finesse anymore which gives a lot less options shooting wise
- Ball physics, Shooting trajectories feel dull, extremely low ''wow'' feel when scoring, Ball physics also feel extremely dumbed down
- There is a weird balance between the X pass power and Triangle pass power where the triangle passes power is so high power that you actually almost always overhit it unless certain angles.
- Face emotions are different then PES2021 but not necesarilly better
- Lots of random glitches occur at this moment in time
- Doesn't feel premium in any way, feels very cheap and mobile
- Sound effects in menu's sound as if theyre from the early 2000s, searching for a game sounds like a nuke incoming constantly and finding a match sounds like your dinner is ready
-The L2 Physical defending is also way too overpowered, you can physically overpower quite a lot of folks even when they shield the ball, because said physics go wonky


- PC ONLY: 60fps Cap is vile, 30fps replay cap viler especially as this seems to be an easy to run game, 144hz+ squad where you at?
- PC ONLY: No vsync options & Fullscreen/resolution picker

Might improve over the Weeks/Months/Years even as they can keep tweaking this, but at this point in time and probably a long while its a not recommended for me.

At least the uninstall button works

since the game is garbage here is a good recipe for greek souvlaki for you to make instead of playing this trash

Ingredients

¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-sized pieces
Sauce:
1 (6 ounce) container plain Greek-style yogurt
½ cucumber - peeled, seeded, and grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pinch salt
6 wooden skewers, or as needed



Step 1
Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, 2 cloves minced garlic, oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large resealable bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

Step 2
Mix yogurt, cucumber, 1 tablespoon olive oil, vinegar, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 pinch salt together in a bowl. Refrigerate tzatziki sauce for flavors to blend, 1 to 2 hours.

Step 3
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Soak wooden skewers in a bowl of water for about 15 minutes.

Step 4
Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Discard unused marinade.

Step 5
Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side. Serve with tzatziki sauce.

Put pes 2013 back on steam and make it free

Daca vreti sa se joace cat de cat jocul...bagati-l gratis tot...e cel mai slab pes din lume...zici ca e facut pentru mobil...

PES 2021 il intrece colosal. Un rahat de joc.

2 years for this ♥♥♥♥ ? :)))) wtf, don t waste your time guys

End of an era, huh? I've been with PES since we got the Original for Christmas on PS2. I've been with PES no matter the licenses and wonky player names. I've been through the decline and the new coming. I've seen EA lose it's ambition while PES still tried to make the game better. And I genuinely thought that we surpassed EA already. Until.

During all these years i mainly played master league. I've patiently waited Konami to deliver. To fix the annoying things in the game. The AI, animations, repetition. etc. PES 2018 has been tasting just a little old and i was looking forward to upgrading. Until.

In the end PES was different than FIFA. And that's why we chose it over licenses, arcade, flash (and addiction). FIFA's novelties were street football and similar half finished arcade articles. In PES we could (usually) wait a better game than before. PES had history. Until.

Until... Until this. THis straight up downgrade. Clunky, ugly, unimpressive. An insult. Konami gave EA the title for free and launched a cheap FTP title to flirt with the player base that wants to play a football game but not necessarily pay for it. And it shows. "Game's not polished" is a lie. "It's not finished" is stretching it. Middle of a wilderness road in pitch black darkness. There you'll find eFootball 2022. You've all seen the pictures. No words, no excuses. The gameplay, the most important part, feels heavy and tired. Some of the new controls are pointless, some just straight up quality of life downgrades. Goals feel hollow. 2 difficulties available. No game modes. Game play feels worse than in an decade. There's no soul. I guess they thought that we'd stick along, silent and loyal?

And until this review has become more a rant than anything. i guess this is my goodbye letter. There's no more football games for me. Maybe someday... But i don't believe it or hope for it no longer. Is this... how you become an adult?



P.S. FIFA? Never say never, but it'll be a cold day in hell.

PES 2013 > eFootball 2022

Words cant describe how great this game is. But numbers can. 1/10
