    Re: PES 2012 Demo 2 Impressions/Discussion

    First goal Spurs scored on me. What a beauty. Second was the goal I scored with Rangers. Nothing too special, but still rewarding. Recorded from my phone, hence the quality.

      I have been going with two bars now, and I need to step and try none just to see, because I do get annoyed when the ball doesn't go where I want it to.

      Stevee, I think the biggest thing for me is that playing the computer is fun and challenging for a long time, I don't ever feel like I got it figured out and get bored. Since I am not an online player that is one of the reasons this is probably my favorite game.

        No bars is really, really fun. You definitely have great control and it's really rewarding. Especially to hit long lob passes.

          Noticed something pretty cool just now with custom tactics (which are awesome btw). If your on the 360 and you hit Select+B you can scroll through your created tactics and you will get a little screen of your manager barking out instructions.

            What?! I have to turn it back on now just to try this.

            Very, very cool.

                been using this also (ps3). I do wish though that as you cycle through your tactics, that it would show the name of it (standard, all out attack, etc...), instead of just preset 1,2,3,4. During the heat of the game I forget which ones I had set at which preset. I'm sure if I just use the same presets all the time though, I would memorize it.

                Also, just played a few more games on -2 speed. Great games. Lost one game using Tottenham vs Rangers, 2-0 and tied another game using America vs Internacional, 2-2. I then decided to try the other demo on slow speed.........my goodness. It literally felt like I was playing in fast fwd. Immediately turned it off.

                  I myself have played all the demos and I will keep it simple on how I see it

                  FIFA 12 Demo
                  -better visually I think with the eye candy
                  -the control is much smoother this year for FIFA.. and some new controls are good on defense
                  -the sound and presentation will most likely will be top notch in this game like usual for those that love all that stuff.. including all the licences and leagues
                  -better online play.. meaning more options and well clubs FIFA will have and has built an online community already.. a lot people buy FIFA alone for the online play.. I know many from the EASHL clubs on my friends list that quit NHL 11 clubs to move to FIFA because it was better they said

                  PES 2012 Demos
                  -this game also has better controls and much smoother than previous years on PS3.. I would say best yet by far on PS3
                  -the computer AI is better in this game and this game has better buildup play and closer to the real thing.
                  -I also believe the gameplay is more exciting in this game when playing against the computer.. at least for me. I dunno what it is but when I score or even come close to scoring I get excited a lot more when I play this game saying now that is football
                  -in the PES 2012 Demo 2 they made passing even tougher as I was playing on 1 bar assistance and now it seems 1 bar from the first demo = 3 bars from the 2nd demo to me. ALso shooting is better and harder. I think it's about right. Keepers are better as well..
                  -the off the ball movement in this game is a lot better I think so far going by the demos... and even though I'm not good at controlling my own runs yet but it is great to use that option. but even if you don't create your own off the ball runs.. the computer AI moves off the ball a lot better in this game than FIFA to me. Konami has really done great in this aspect with the computer AI better than any footie game.
                  -This game will be the better game as far as gameplay goes and offline play against the computer AI imo


                  I'm going to get one game because I don't have time for buying multiple footie games and I didn't buy NHL this year as well because I just want to focus on one of these footie games. My original plan was to get FIFA 12 for sure and play online clubs a bunch with a lot of people I know from the NHL online community but after playing the PES demos I am pretty sure I'm getting PES 2012 instead now. I will be honest I'm more of an online sports gamer but if there is one game I can have fun playing offline against the computer a bunch.. I think it's PES. The computer AI in this sports game is not the same thing over and over and doesn't get as boring quickly like most other sports games to me. I am the type that can't stand to play the Computer AI usually. PES will have online play too and great offline multiplayer... but I doubt it will be as good FIFA online overall... as far as options go considering they got Clubs and better servers. It's really hard for me to choose considering I love online play but honestly I don't think most can't go wrong with either game to be honest... BUT for me though I think I gotta go with PES because to me the football is better and closer to the real thing that gets me excited playing the game and keep coming back. my hope is that PES online plays like it does offline and is lag free. Also, this is another minor complaint that I hope is fixed for PES online this year. Last year you could not control the keeper online but you could offline. I know many might not even use this option or know of it but when playing multiplayer this is good thing to use to position the keeper.... especially on free kicks. Konami only had this control enabled for offline play though last year.
                  This is why I'm still a bit torn, though I'm loving PES much more than FIFA. I'm more of an online gamer, though I do play my bro on multiplayer in person from time to time. But that said, I definitely won't get bored of playing the CPU repeatedly as it's fun and not repetitive. That said, being able to play ONLINE in a COMPETENT manner is a MUST.

                    Hey guys quick question... im new to the PES series and fútbol games in general (first one being fifa 11 which i played A LOT) i loved that game but the tackles were craaazy and its too fast paced, PES is more like what i see on GolTV and foxdeportes... how do i set manual passing? i put the bars to none and i felt like i could pinpoint the passes not like fifa where i had to be careful with the passes (not lobs). Am I doing something wrong? it feels like assisted or something :/ Thanks for the help!

                        That was a cool little animation.

                        I just found out if you hit select during the game plan screen it will bring a help menu that explains everything in regards to tactics. Maybe it was there last year, but I never knew about it.

                          The same can be accomplished by using the D-pad and pushing right as this toggles through your 4 preset tactics. This work so long as you edit your controller so that the right stick is used primarily for controller. The default is both, which needs to be changed. For me, toggling through the D-pad is more efficient during matches that hitting select and buttons.

                            No bars, is as close as we get to manual on PES. I spray a few passes off target through out the game but still can feel a little bit of assistance at times. Hopefully they will patch it and have it be more manual.
