Multiplat Pes 2012

[RoosterLad]

I didn't use FedEx, didn't want to go too crazy on postage as FIFA is out this week anyway so not fussed if it doesn't arrive this week. I got an email today saying it has shipped though.

 

[Cruyff14]

Yeah got an email saying minehas shipped! Can't wait! Will have it by the end of the week considering I chose express postage.

 

[RU_]

Could have it tomorrow, isn't expressed next day delivery?

 

[Cruyff14]

Says 1-4 days estimated delivery time.

Tomorrow would be epic though. Nobody is going to be home all day though

 

[RU_]

Just sleep in by "accident".

 

[Cruyff14]

Haha. I wish, just got offered this job by mate today. I'll be out of the house by 7 unfortunately! I might ask the retired neighbour across the street to get it on Wednesday if I am working again if it comes!

 

[RU_]

Ah yep.

I read that Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are the only two English teams licensed. Does this mean the rest aren't in the game, or that they're called different names, like 'Mercyside Red' for Liverpool and 'London' for Chelsea?

Yep, that is right. Easily fixed manually though, or if you want to go the whole hog then you can install an option file to update crests, jerseys and all that jazz in one hit.

 

[Barnzy]

Install option files. It is very annoying though.

The presentation of PES combined with this probably have put a lot of people past games. Maybe even this year.

 

[Cruyff14]

Hmmm, never installed option files before. Could somebody explain how it's annyoing please.

It's pretty ****ing fiddly, and it can be hard finding a really good one and getting it to work. So many times I've spent hours doing it, and then loading the game up and having the 'could not load edit files' thing pop up.

But the feeling when it works, and you scroll through the beautiful kits and emblems...... man is it worth it.

 

[Cruyff14]

Def gotta be sharing them when you find them!

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Yeah, that's why I normally don't get the game for a few weeks after release, that way there are some really good and detailed option files out.

 

[Cruyff14]

I love making tops, first thing I do when I get the game will be jumping into edit mode lol.

 

[Covvy]

Isn't downloading Option Files easier this year?

 

[kwanga]

So i woke up this morning and magically obtained a copy on my comp today. I felt that last year's version on pc was a bit clunky in terms of gameplay (compared to the ps3, not sure if it's just me) but I've played a few games and it feels identical to the ps3 version however, it looks better and the loading times are almost non existent.

Given that I've just pre-ordered a copy from shopto for the pc version rather than the ps3 version because it is cheaper (36 AUD compared to 56-60 for ps3 version) and the ease of modding option files/patches on pc.

I used cheat engine to give me a whole bunch of GP and unlocked the owner mode. Had about a half hour play time on it and to be honest it feels quite hollow, you can't really do much in terms of managing. You merely provide funds and sign chosen players. There's not much control over actual strategy and starting lineups.

I had a quick muck around with the challenge training mode and I think it is a good mode to hone your skills. You use your created avatar to participate and i'm assuming you're on max stats.

On a side note, my version of the game is in english but the commentary is in french and it is quite refreshing/ hilarious at times, only time will tell if this novelty wears off

 

[bok_party]

this will be in my hands tomorrow!

 

[Big Delut]

I bought a copy of PES 2012 on PS3 yesterday from Dungeon Crawl on Elizabeth St for anyone interested. $74 so reasonably priced too.

 

[Cruyff14]

Got it yesterday.

****ing wow. Best futebol game I have played. Much better than the demo.

Only drawbacks are lack of licenses and transfers not up to date. Apart from that, it's amazing.

 

[Cruyff14]

Commentary is also crap and the soundtrack is woeful. Can't got past the gameplay though!!

 

[RickSanchez]

I have very strong feeling that this will be better than Fifa 12. I don't mind Fifa 12, but the AI is way too skillful. I can understand intelligence with ball movement and passing, but when you got the likes of Carragher dribbling past people and launching 50 yard through balls its a bit odd. Dribbling is nowhere near as awesome as it is in Pro Evo as well.

Can't wait to get Pro Evo, I seriously think I'll be playing it a lot more than Fifa.

 

[Toshowyouwhy]

Great to hear the positive reactions, certain this will be the pick of the games this year!

 

[Cruyff14]

When do you reckon OF's will be available? I want to start making my own teams already haha

 

[Covvy]

Won't be getting this until OF's are released. Is it the UK version that you pretty much need for the OF's?
