John Murphy is back with a new blog post on the official KONAMIÂ blogs. He's talking about Gamescom event and the impressions he got from the fans who played this version. He also mentions that time is not long until the demo will be released!
"Me again.
A couple of big things to report. First off we've now announced all the fan improvements. I've been dying to tell everyone about all the
improvements so it's a relief everything is out in the open!
I've been checking feedback through forums and I think for the first
time in a couple of years we've gone beyond expectations. Once again, thanks to everyone who gave the team feedback which influenced development. Long may this process continue.
Code shown at Gamescom seemed to go down well with those who got a game or two. I've seen some discussions since (and a few videos) and certain points have caused concern, particularly keepers. As Seabass said the code was a month old and improvements are still being made. I have to say that
from my experience of recent code keepers are much, much more competent. Cheap rebound goals are gone and most handle the ball well. Occasional mistakes are still made, but that's as it should
be - it happens in real life.
For me the other big news is we've finished player photo and video
shoots. It's great to see the finish line!
Not long to go now until we release a demo for everyone to test. You'll get a chance to see the new PES for yourselves and make up your minds about how we've reflected what the what fans want.
Cheers,
Jon"
