Accompanied by the usual proclamations that not even the most diehard fans seemed to believe , Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 was quietly welcomed by the press. A few weeks after the onset of the Xbox and PlayStation 4 One , it was honestly hard to think that we are faced with a title revolutionized and able to give a real turning point in the recent past shaky . Pad in hand, however, came the surprise.
It took years and several internal upheavals but Konami has finally found the magic formula to reinvigorate its most famous brand , about Naoya Hatsumi , the new project lead of PES , the natural heir of the good old Seabass ( past the top floors of Japanese company ) . A change than ever preparatory , whose benefits had already glimpsed in the improvements shown from the episode last year.
Deeply dissecting the demo is easy to see how the new engine Fox Engine has been an introduction devastating, positive of course, to the gameplay. Many of the chronic defects of the series have been wiped out or at least limited to: wood and contrasts very credible animations are a distant memory and the famous tracks, although not entirely removed, and now rarely appear in an almost harmless. To earn was also the management of the sphere, credible and able to give shots and fantastic total shares more rational . It follows gaming experience but yes experimental fluid, enjoyable and above all, fun.
Here is the real spell : it was time that we felt so much joy playing with a PES , perhaps even from the epic challenges shoulder to shoulder with the masterpieces for PS2. If these emotions are born again means that Konami has not forgotten how it develops a football simulation quality , it means that we can look to the future with great enthusiasm .
EA 's response was not as impressive because , honestly, there was no need . FIFA 14 has solid foundations so that he would not have made any sense to claim restoration ; rather , we expected small interventions on some troubles unearthed after hundreds of hours of play on FIFA 13. Our pretensions , fortunately, have been met.
What immediately strikes the eye is the difference in the pace of the game slowed down by the inability of the players to perform to stop Superman and changes of direction to the Flash . The players are " human " , even simple touches make mistakes and do not seem Martians in front of the unfortunate defenders. Skip the direct opponent has become a practice for the chosen few to ponder well and with a high risk of failure.
Some may turn up their noses , no accounting for taste , but this news brings with it a major advantage in the economy of the whole experience : the midfield and become an important area in which to build the action , just like in reality. You can no longer cut it like butter with long throws or filtering by the defense , in favor of realism and tactical depth . The revamped physics of the ball then took a certain heaviness in football, whether it be a pass or shot . By setting the controls in full- manual ( returned a true full -manual , not that seeds " masked " since last year ) , it becomes all the more clear: FIFA 14 not care what little need for touching new heights with the simulative ' objective of strengthening its leadership, exactly what the true sports fan most beautiful of the world expects .
