WENB PES2013 June Playtest : Questions wanted!

[Alan]

**This is not a discussion thread**

This thread should be used to post your questions in advance of the playtest on 13th June. Please read that quoted below for info on what should and should not be asked.

With this being a great opportunity to not only see how the game is progressing, it can also serve as an opportunity to keep our community informed beyond our own take, so with this in mind we would like any gameplay related questions you may have.

What we will not be able to obtain any specifics on at this playtest is information pertaining to game modes, licences, online functionality/performance or individual player stats, so don’t go wasting your opportunity to get some answers on the game by asking something that simply cannot be answered at this stage. So remember, anything relating to gameplay exclusively can and should be asked about!

*If the version of the game we get our hands on at the event is the same as the one shown at E3, then it will consist of 4 Spanish teams and 4 Copa Libertadores teams, with what believe to be no more than 4 stadiums to choose from.

After the event, we will look to get any answers to you via a post or podcast.

My Question:

In the pre-match cutscenes where you come out the tunnel etc, your formation is shown and is basically wrong every time, showing a 4-4-2 as a diamond and people appearing in generally the wrong position. Is this still present in PES2013?

Thankyou.

Is the "God Mode" still in the game?


Peace

Is there a preset option to skip automatic replays (most of which are of insignificant events and are unnecessary) instead of having to press start every single time?

[Harvey_psv]

My Questions:

1. During every corner, when you clear the ball. The ball always go to a player from the opposite team (9 out of 10 times). This happens in every pes game. Can you check if it's still in? Can they sort this out? It really irritates me alot.

2. Since the next gen, when you are sometimes in possesion (example, when you put pressure and steal the ball of a defender), all of your team mates run away from the (attacking) situation. This also happens during a corner. Is this finally sorted out?

3. In the 3rd E3 vid (When C. Ronaldo tricks Abidal), it still shows that players run and stops all of a sudden, ice skates and run further (robotic move). Is this sorted out in the latest games?

Thanks!

Have the skill paramaters been improved? More skills you can do with different buttons? How you activate it?
Or anything at all related to dribbling skills?

Thanks

1st question, to check this again...

Could you redirect passes after you pressed X? In all previous games you could redirect pass after pressing X if you saw the ball was going in a "wrong" direction. But in PES2012 once you press X the ball goes to a player where you pointed the stick before passing, and even if that players gets blocked, or starts running in opposite direction your player will still try to pass to him no matter where you point the stick after passing.

2st question is about PES old good feeling!
How does it feel when you controlling/running with the ball and when you pass and shot?
I am talking about feeling(old PES feeling if you know what I mean), not about freedom. Does everything is kinda weightless and soft like in PES 2012 or is drastically better?

Someone was describe that on this way, "It's like to drive a race game with a wheel without force feedback"

Hi,

1. Is it more free to move cross receiver inside the box. In 2012, they are usually locked-on that auto receive with too long cycle relative to the ball speed. Are the attacker is mostly ahead of the defender at crossing ? In 2012, the defender kinda intentionally stop

2. Do CB's still often go higher to mark an attacker even if the ball is not close to them. I would love to see the defender hold the defensive line much better as in 2011 at least.

3. What about the variety of CPU ai attacking besides too much "direct forward play" and "quick pass pass pass then shoot" we can easily encounter in 2012. Do they passing around in the middle, back etc in pressured or unpressured situation. Can the CPU ai really play slow build up ?

Thx

[Power_25]

1- Can the CPU A.I keep possiossion like pass the ball back if needed, even to GK.

2- is there any difference btw the teams. in pes 2012 all the teams play the same, pass forward,pass forward,pass forward,pass forward. is there variations in how each team attack, defend?

3- the catch up bug, was somehow there and not there in pes 2012, how is it in pes2013, after seeing the E3 3rd trailer, CRonaldo was sprinting, but somehow i see puyol catching up ?

Thanks Alot!

I know Adam is very tired of hearing about keeper animation questions, actually I am tired of asking too.

So what I am asking is, Adam, can you please try to get a deffinitive answer about keeper improvements, so we can stop requesting same things again and again:

a) Will Konami remove the complained animations remove and change?
b) If not, will they just add new onnes above existing ones?
c) If not, will they just adjusting keeper ai?
d) And finally, will specific keepers be benefiting Player ID improvements and animations?

Thank you very much!

[Thommohawk]

Is the shooting still random in assisted mode (non manual) in the updated code, whereby you aim top right corner and the ball goes top left ?

Does the passing still feel a bit loose or is it nice and tight in the update ?

Crossing was a major pet hate of mine in PES 2012 - has the crossing feel been updated in latest code ? ie most players can whip a good ball in with good curl, with some able to put the ball on a six pence with uber curl and others unable to muster any whip who have no end product in real life (walcott, lennon etc) ?

[ShadyKnight]

+ 1 for the questions regarding God-mode and skippable replays.

Also...

1. Are rails gone; or at least not noticeably hindering movement, i.e. The feeling of being 'locked-on' to a particular path or direction

[RaptorInMotion]

Cant edit my post but I just remembered an actual gameplay question:

During corners and set plays, you can bring up some defenders to go in the box. However, say using Real Madrid, you bring up your CB's Ramos and Pepe for example, and instead of being ADDED, they REPLACE people in the box and you find that Ronaldo and someone else are actually way back in defence during a corner and will continue to fill-in for the CB's until the ball goes out of play. This is probably still in?

Very important for me cause last years Stamina System is very poor. You can run as much as you want without losing skills. This made a lot of people exploiting the running. Its not realistic!

So my question is: How is the Stamina System this year? Can you run as much as you want?

[moeom]

Anything new added into the team tactics from PES2012 or are they still the same? And if there are any additions or changes, what are they? I have a feeling they have been changed, tweaked or added some things because seeing how they are moving more into player individuality and team individuality, i think there will be some tweaks on that part of the game as well. Thanks.

[benc84]

See if the keepers can freely move around the area when they have the ball in there hands and how quickly they release the ball

[SickDL]

1- are the powerbars consistend

2- is the game speed faster or slower then pes2012

3- does the game still resets you player when the cpu has a trowing close to there own goal

4- can you still score an easy one on one goal by just dribbling past the keeper

Thanks for the Q&A WENB its much appreciated

[george56]

1)Are the rails gone?Eventhough they had been reduced in PES 2012,they are still there.

2)Does turning while having the ball still take AGES if you dont use a world-class player?Are the non world-class players responsive enough in general?

3)I dont care about goalkeepers catches,all I care for is their reaction when they actually come out to stop the attacker.Do they still do that stupid thing where they go around the attacking player,exposing the goal open,and start following him from behind,without doing anything to stop him?

4)Has the powerbar changed at all,in terms of both appearance and way of working?It was pretty problematic in PES 2012,because most of the times it just didnt matter,even in 0 bars it would send the ball to the other end of the pitch eventhough you put like no power in it and the opposite.

There's probably a lot more important things I want to ask but can't remember right no, so for now:

- Do the players and tactics still "reset" after a match, when you want to just rematch with the same changes you did when picking the teams?

- Are there more stats, and are the old stats (agility and so on) back?

- Are team tactics actually respected by both our own team and CPU? In PES 2012, things like pressure and defensive line tactics were often ignored...

- How are cameras, and is there any customizing options.

- Is there more depth to acceleration? In PES 2012 every player accelerates to full speed almost immediately, without any effort in between. Online, that unbalances attack and defense quite a bit.

- How do players react to loose balls and unexpected "bumps"? PES 2011/12 is really annoying on this aspect, players struggle to deal with balls that don't follow it's intended trajectory, and either let it get away, don't react to it at all, sometimes cursor changes to another player and no mater what you do, you can't change back to that player that's much closer to the ball...

Most of the questions here were answered in the impressions or the podcast

Here's mine:
1-Is there any changes in players positioning (Attack & Defense) during set pieces ?
2-Also,are there more dynamic movements while taking them ?
3-Any improvement in the defense's response to low crosses (Ox3) [online abused]?
4-about default crossing ,still the same like PES2012 or pressure sensitive (while not using manual) ?
5-If they can put manual shooting as preset option ,can they do another one for crossing ?

that's it for now
