Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 Features and Screenshots, Not Coming to Xbox One or PS4


Check out the new features for Pro Evolution Soccer 2014, including a few new screenshots. The game will only be released for PS3, 360, PC and PSP. There are no plans to bring Pro Evolution 2014 to Xbox One or PS4, according to PES European Community Manager, Adam Bhatti.

Quote:
Based on six founding standards, the new system has allowed every aspect of PES 2014 to be totally reworked, throwing off the shackles of previous limitations and allowing the PES Productions team to produce a game much closer to their vision of recreating the excitement and variety of a top-level match. The central theme of fluidity is based on the constant moving of players and switching positions which characterises the modern approach to football. PES Productions have looked at how matches ebb and flow, with player individuality key to a team's success, and well-drilled tactics helping underdogs produce giant-killing feats.

In all honesty, those screenshots look awful. Players' skin and faces look like mannequins and their body proportions are all off -- necks and arms are too long, heads are too small. At this point with this next-generation of video games we should be seeing something close to photo-realism. Konami has so far to go to catch up to EA at this point, you would think at the very least they would have done everything possible to blow football gamers away with PES 2014's graphics.

Updated OP. The game isn't coming to Next-Gen consoles.

TrueBall Tech: For the first time in a football simulation, PES 2014 centres everything on the ball: how it moves, and how players use it.

Not true at all. PES has long been playing catchup to FIFA in that regard. PES for years has had limp, floaty and unrealistic ball physics. If they can even just copy what EA has been able to do, they'll have accomplished something.

Thus, the player has total control in determining how their body is angled to receive a pass, whereas previous football titles present the user with scant options. Instead, TrueBall Tech means that it can be chested or nodded past an opponent, flicked into space or to a team mate, while closer dribbling control is a much more personal attribute in the new game.

This sounds revolutionary, definitely.

The PES series has long since treated the ball as an individual entity.

Again, so not true. PES' magnet-footed players is one of the biggest programming issues with the series. They've never really fixed or advanced it in two generations now -- in fact it was less of an issue two gens ago. Really hope all this is more than just a bunch of Konami marketing spin. But given their last few releases and how disingenuous they're being here, I don't have a lot of faith.

Heart: Defining what makes football so engrossing is difficult. It isn't a technical thing, but more an emotional hook. Matches can be imposing for visiting teams, as home support barracks the opposition, and acts as the infamous "twelfth man" by cheering their side on. PES 2014's "Heart" aims to recreate the effects of team support, both on an individual player basis and across the entire team.

Each player in the game now employs mental attributes in addition to playing styles and skills, and can be adversely affected when having a poor game. However, if an individual is not playing well, his team mates can rally round and will work to support him.


In other words, the evolution and next-generation of AI cheat technology, ugh. Why does every sports game dev these days put this nonsense in their games? At the very least, include the option to shut it off.

Motion Animation Stability System (M.A.S.S.): M.A.S.S. acts instantly to any situation, with the reaction of a fouled player entirely dependent on the direction and force with which they are tackled.

They design and develop "M.A.S.S." when all they had to do was spend an hour tweaking a few player ratings. Half the issues with both this game and FIFA is that every player is rated 70+ in most rating categories. So ratings like strength and balance mean nothing and have no in-game effect.
