    Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 - The Best Football Game Ever Made?


    My copy arrived this morning. Currently going for the task of editing it. For the first time in years you can import stuff, so I'll be editing names, then importing badges and kits. A painful task, but worth the effort.

    I want to put off buying this as long as possible. Played a bit of 2015 again yesterday. I still like it enough to skip 2016 but man, Drury's commentary sounds decent. The stat tracking on this sounds amazing, though. Finding out you're shitting goals from set-pieces give you something more specific to work on. And dynamic weather. Yikes.

    I wonder if this will come under the Konami guillotine? Best enjoy it while it's here.

    Not a clue. They're hiring new staff for a new Metal Gear but what scale that takes is unclear. I'd imagine PES and it's small team are sustainable, providing the sales are there to keep them viable.

    I've been seriously considering buying is because there's no way I'm buying FIFA again but the only thing holding me back is Master League. Is it really as good as people are saying?

    And how does youth intake work on it? Do they have proper academies / youth teams or are they still doing that awful setup where older players retire and then immediately respawn as 16 year olds?

    I'd imagine it's still the same. It wouldn't take much just to have a regen text file like FM. Not that it's a huge issue as there's plenty of talent in these games. And I maintain that a regenerated James Beattie was the best striker I've ever had in a game. Started streaming some of my 2015 Master League before. Began brilliantly with 4 straight wins and then it settled into mediocrity. That's still the deciding factor for me. 2016 could do a lot of things right but if I can't get some form going on Superstar (and Top Player continues to be beneath my level), then it's the same old rut.

    At least they ditched the 'cheat prevention' which allow you to rage quit single player stuff. There's always that one game too many that shafts you.

    That first four. The rest

    Editing doesnt seem to be as bad as I thought it was going to be. May have to look at PES this year.

    Don't know what's going on around here but Best Buy are not even advertising the game and Walmart are saying nothing in store and another 10 days or so if I get it delivered.

    EDIT: and GameStop are only saying it's available in Baltimore. What the hell is going on.

    Yeah, people have made them along with guides on what to do. You basically edit the kit so it's just one colour then import an image that does everything.

    Just kicked off Master League with my beloved 'West Midlands City' and they do indeed have youth teams! Although it is a bit strange considering most of the names look as if somebody has had a seizure when typing on the keyboard and a lot if them are already rated higher than my first team.

    I played a quick exhibition game earlier and while it does seem like an improvement over FIFA I'm not really sure why people are wanking over this so much. I'll have a better idea once I get online for a few games, I reckon.

    I'm waiting on the Konami roster update before I start a Master League, as apparently if you do the transfers yourself it'll just change them back anyway.

    With the kit templates, I'm going to give it a try to see how easy it is to make old Cov kits, and then maybe Eclipse and Spliffy t-shirts while I'm going back to our glory days.

    Yeah, you'll sometimes get proper ringers in previous PES'. Eduardo Morillo in PES 2013, for example. Turns out that was a To Madeira situation of some kid getting put in the game because he won a competition or something. Xavi and Iniesta rolled into one.

    And the PC version is graphically inferior, phonics. Naturally, some people are pissed off given how MGS V was handled.

    I've got the Premier League and MLS kits from Pesworld, although not sure if I can be arsed with the MLS. Are there any sites or forums where people are doing more unique teams?

    It looks decent. I've already got FIFA pre-ordered, but might have a bash at this soon.

    You'll have to see if you can edit the boots to have a Grolsch bottletop through the laces.

    Just been playing this again and I'm still yet to see the evidence why this is the best football game ever made. Admittedly I've been playing the AI on Superstar (which so absolutely fucking ridiculous) but nothing is standing out thus far.

    Newcastle's default kit is red and white stripes. You will be ashamed of your words and deeds.

    I've done alright on Superstar so far. Takes a while to adjust to the way the game moves. There's a lot more inertia going on. Couple that with having to actually play the conditions (players slip and if a game takes place in rainy conditions, the pitch gets heavier) and I don't actually think the physical aspect of the game is too bad. It felt worse in the demo. It plays a little more relaxed on Superstar than it did last season. I'm not keeping the concentration up as much as I needed to in 2015.

    Love the Master League revamp. It's still cluttered but that game throws stats at you like nobody's business so you can target where you're going wrong if you're an Opta retard like Taz. The coach seemed to chime in with some advice saying Cisse's getting tackled too often by the opposition. He was right.

    Commentary is observant although Drury's SHOUTING might eventually make me turn it off. They reference new players, your form and even the fact you're a new manager. Hopefully that goes deeper as you win titles and gain a reputation. Also, keepers are definitely suspicious. I had a keeper go to ground way too early when all he had to do was give chase and boot it. In the Arsenal match Tim Krul let two shots squirm underneath him which implies he should've got down quicker. Yet, I've not been pressured nearly as much in this game. Even the Arsenal game we had a decent first half showing.

    I dunno. Initially it feels like a better product than last year but its lacking a bit of last year's challenge. I'll dig a little deeper and get something up on www.playstationcountry.com on Thursday / Friday and I need to get these kits edited. I'm not waiting til the review's over to start. Red and white? Fuck that noise!

    I was surprised how easy it was. Import, copy and paste. Didn't do the colour edits though so the crowds look like they've wandered in from another game but whatever. I could tweak that. 330 kit slots, though. I'll need to pick and choose. Maybe.

    Mild shitter, the squad and transfer update isn't coming out until the end of October in a big data pack along with new teams, boots, etc.

    Can't they just roll out a quick transfer update on its own? Madden throws one at you every ten minutes.

    That's probably when their Live Update stuff gets switched on as well. They must've had the squads on lockdown super early, too. Practically none of the summer transfers are on.

    Here's a public service announcement, fellas. Serie B is a bit inaccurate. Now, I understand its not licensed by they also didn't take into account that:

    a) Brescia went down from Serie A and
    b) Teramo were stripped of their Serie C title for being super match-fixy. Catania retain their spot in PES despite Teramo being replaced by Ascoli as runners up to Teramo.

    Wonder if that's forthcoming in the October patch?

    Played a load of this against my mate today and it's fantastic! We had some close matches too.
    The difference between a team of top top players and an average side feels so good too.
