Pro Evolution Soccer has wasted a generation of consoles, perhaps the most notorious of his encounters being that of PES 2013, but of course it is unquestionable that the saga of Konami has been losing integers in a very drastic way in Playstation 3, Xbox 360 y PC during these years.
The PES 2014 released in a hurry and in which it was still seen that the development team needed to dig better into the handling and performance of the FOX Engine de Kojima Productions, maybe this next PES 2015 may be the one who makes the difference and breaks the scoring streak that his main rival has marked for years with a more careful and refined game.
Those of us who know the origins of ISS o PES discipline We know that it has been a football franchise that has never been characterized by having the huge number of licenses that it could afford EA with their titles, protected as an official product of the FIFAHowever, its playability, halfway between the most direct fun and realism, was a formula that made the difference and characterized this franchise, and beware, the taste of PES discipline classic seems to return with this year's installment, at a crucial moment, just one year after the premiere of PlayStation 4 y Xbox One.
At a technical level, FOX Engine looks surprising in general lines, moreover, in some details it even shows above FIFA 15 coins: the models of the players are more realistic, their bodies have more suitable proportions -in the game of EA what of some footballers is somewhat exaggerated, with those shoulders of fighters of Mortal Kombat-, their physical appearance is more faithful to the real player, better worked faces and finally a Player ID more elaborate that can allow some footballers to be recognized by the way they move on the pitch. And speaking of stadiums, it also has a very high and detailed graphic representation, with a very successful atmosphere, although in lighting it seems to be a step behind FIFA 15 coins.
One of the most important aspects of PES discipline it has always been the physics of the spherical. For this year's edition, and starting from the previous one PES 2014, there have been a series of very positive changes, aimed at a more realistic fluidity of the ball, leaving behind that unnatural awkward feeling that the ball left when moving on the grass. Players also move in a more natural and fluid way -although the animations still need to be further refined with better transitions between them-, the control is more immediate and direct and certain animations that left us sold out by not responding have even been eliminated until those did not end. So far, we can say that Konami He has been able to correct errors -and very big- of the previous edition of PES and that in themselves can make us have very good vibes with what we will see in the month of November.
But not all that glitters is gold, and how could it be otherwise, I have also found negative aspects in the demo that I am going to tell you about. The control, in certain sets, stops responding with a certain lag, something inadmissible when in this type of games a reliable control over our player is required. The response time of the special dribbles performed with the two sticks will require skill to get the hang of it, but the response of the pad should be more forgiving. As for the goalkeepers, they have an erratic, strange behavior and are not reliable: we can score real goals in long shots, while in medium-short distances they move very slowly, and beware, it is a problem of artificial intelligence, Well, whatever team you play for, goalkeepers behave identically. It is a problem that Konami should solve in these weeks that remain for the launch of PES 2015. Another of the big buts that affect the gameplay is the impact engine on the players' bodies: the tackles, frictions and charges are represented in an unrealistic way, with players losing a lot of time after these plays, giving the opposing team an advantage. in a cheeky way.
In short, PES 2015 It improves, and much, what was seen in the previous installment of the franchise: we have a faster game, with more animations, more fluid movements, improved ball physics and a FOX Engine that recreates the players in an extraordinary way and shows a spectacular staging of the beautiful game. It is true that Konami must work against the clock to solve the two obstacles mentioned - goalkeepers and impact system - but of course this PES 2015 promises, and quite a lot, after so many years in the shadow of FIFA: Who will win the next match EA - Konami? Remember that PES 2015 will be on sale on November 13th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 3 y Xbox 360.
