    Now my favorite game became a massive dissapointment. A lot of things been copied from fifa series games. At most game scripts and ai gameplay been copied from there. The game become much difficult than before - playing demo i thought it was better goalkipper and more manual passing and shooting BUT NO. First of all ai is cheater - it does things that real player cant do and plus it doesNow my favorite game became a massive dissapointment. A lot of things been copied from fifa series games. At most game scripts and ai gameplay been copied from there. The game become much difficult than before - playing demo i thought it was better goalkipper and more manual passing and shooting BUT NO. First of all ai is cheater - it does things that real player cant do and plus it does that things simultaneously with a lot of his players. Then scripts that when you play this game a lot and you learn all of them this game becomes miserable agression provoking joke that destroys your nerves. I dont want to play against cheater, i want the same abilities.
    Also economy in my club has become a casino where you alway loosing or just cant earn gp because the cost of contracts for good players equals your gp which you earn only by winning. Also 2% chance to get black ball(best player) which costs 10000 gp is for fools who want to donate real money for their favorite game and still get silver ball player. Uninstalled that brain damage.    … Expand

    The PES 2017 MyClub was ruined with the scripting/handicap Konami, specially the one based on Team Strenghts (above level 5 specially)... KONAMI is silent about it, but older players are not stupid. Like me, there's players in our clan that plays PES since it's first version, also we have played PES 2016 everyday, specially MyClub, which I have won 21 open club tournaments...

    But in 2017 many already gave up from playing due the clearly matches "manipulation", balancing, or whatever you want to name it... It will be my case as well, already trying to sell the game or playing outside MyClub only, which I couldn't notice such problems...    … Expand

    Это скучное дерьмо на 2а часа игры. Она просто ни какая, даже фифа лучше этого дерьма

    This is my fifth title in the Pro Evo series. I like how PES connects you to the game of football through its unique presentation, music and gameplay. I will briefly mention the things I like before going on about how crap this is. So the positives are that It is an alternative to FIFA, has a nice selection of songs and includes UEFA Champions league License. I also like how they'veThis is my fifth title in the Pro Evo series. I like how PES connects you to the game of football through its unique presentation, music and gameplay. I will briefly mention the things I like before going on about how crap this is. So the positives are that It is an alternative to FIFA, has a nice selection of songs and includes UEFA Champions league License. I also like how they've release FTP version for 2016 and 2017. However, despite that, I don't think one should invest their time or money into this crap.

    Here are the bad things,

    Limited Licenses, Repetitive commentary, Lack of new game modes or changes. Lag cheaters, High level of scripting. 90% of goals scored through crosses or rebounds. No rewards for dribbling/skills or possession. Tackles are so easy you don't need to do anything, just hold a button and you'll win the ball.

    People who say that PES has a better gameplay are either die-hard fans who can't accept the flaws in the game nor have they ever played another football game, or newcomers or those who don't play a lot or the ones who casually play offline. The game feels smooth but it doesn't mean that the gameplay is superior. Some people also say that in PES you can control the midfield and play how you'd play in real life. But that's not true either, It takes one shot for the ball to go from one end to another. Crosses are so OP. Last year, it was the R2 shot. This game continues to have so many flaws, it is better to stay away from it.

    Now, the only way I could enjoy this is by playing offline or friendlies but it is quite boring unlike FIFA which you have to agree has better offline game modes especially the new journey mode.

    Lastly, I hate the general perception that many people in the community have that PES is for pros and FIFA is for kids or noobs. Or, how they'd quickly point at you after a defeat and say "Go play FIFA" These people are just delusional and actually are the real noobs. I hate it because I once was a part of it. I have mentioned FIFA a lot of times here and I will say that it is also a frustrating game at times but it is miles better than this piece of sh*t (pos) known as PES. I have given this game many chances in the last few years but I can't take anymore. So Goodbye forever!    … Expand

    Feels Extremely unrealistic, yo can score pretty much from everywhere in any situation, i scored every shot with Luis Suarez, even scoring with my back to the goal and being outside the box.

The game has improved in the graphics department nonetheless, i had friends that told me that PES 2016 looked amazing, no it didn't it looked amazing, it looked really bad, period, but this PES looks way better graphically than last years. One last thing, online modes are really bad, connection wise i think, i cant point my finger at what it is, but the game feels totally different while playing online, when doing a pass, shooting, lobbing it takes a little bit more than usual and this can be really frustrating, you have to adjust your timing when playing online. If something gets changed, but i don't think so, ill update my score, for now im not that happy with my purchase.… Expand

    This game is rubbish. The interface, player movement and AI is just awful. They seem to be running on ice. Plus, faces and personalities on each player are unrealistic.
    The gameplay looks more simplistic and the ball physics may be good, but this does not compensate anything.
    Needless to say about the lack of licences which feels totally unacceptable in 2016.
    FIFA is much much better. Period.

    Simply horrible, the game is always decided before you even start, my players do not run and the opponents are always excited, every back ball results in an opponent's attack and everything kicked away from my area turns rebound, I want to please Konami Stop making these games and accept that it will never be like FIFA is

    The worst ever. Konami is just playing god to control whether you win or lose. Totally nonsense. I have played more than 10 versions from winning eleven to pes. I would never spend a penny on pes again.

    I've never seen such a bad football game, it's a thief and my players are always slow, no matter what team I'm using or what I'm up against, it was a waste of money

    Outside the football field, things may not be quite ideal in PES 2017 however, going back inside, we guarantee you a football experience of utmost brilliance.

    If you can look past the usual scarcity of licenses (e.g. just two English clubs are licensed), you’ll see a great game – unpredictable, spectacular, deep, satisfying and engaging. It just needs time to show its advantages, because they might not be instantly obvious when you pick up a controller for a moment at a party. [12/2016, p.66]

    Strange refereeing aside, none of those issues are more than oddities and PES 2017 is a wonderful football game that just begs to be played. Give me another 200 hours and I'll tell you definitively how PES 2017 ranks against the series' best, but right now I'm enjoying it an awful lot. Fun yet unfair, thrilling yet at times borderline broken, but it just wouldn't be PES if it was perfect.
