Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 Data Pack 2 Details, Arrives in November

[Steve_OS]

Konami has officially announced Data Pack 1 has been fixed for PES 2014. Many users were able to download it earlier this week, which fixes all of the issues surrounding online play since the game launched.

Data Pack 2 will be released in November, which includes updates to team rosters, user-suggested improvements and more.

Read the full press release below.

Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. has announced that a new update is now available that remedies all online issues affecting the Xbox 360 version of PES 2014, restoring full online functionality to the game.

The update can be automatically installed from within PES 2014, and delivers an online mode and Master League Online service, and also rectifies previous issues with updating the game via KONAMI data-packs.

A full 11-Vs-11 Online mode is currently in beta and will be available in the coming weeks. Additionally, users can expect to see another Data Pack update in November that will include over 800 player face updates, updated rosters and improvements based on user feedback.

Lol. After struggling to download the first Data Pack a few times when the game first came out, I never tried again. Hopefully this one will come with less issues.

Sadly (well, not really since Konami shot themselves in the foot) I think it will be too late for PES. They missed a golden opportunity and with FIFA releasing on Next-Gen I think people will put this game by the wayside. Hardcore PES fans (including myself) will scream "GAMEPLAY" to the high-heavens but the #'s don't lie. We're damn near 3-4 months into the season and the summer transfers still aren't up to date???? This game should have been building steam as we move onto NG but as is, the gap is simply widening.

I'm glad they are at least working on fixing issues and making improvements to a decent game, on the pitch. Does anyone know specifics on what is being fixed based off of "user feedback"?

They've been kind of quiet on saying the details but most of the feedback submitted to their community manager, Adam Bhatti has revolved around: Input Lag Slow/Unresponsive turns Catch-up bug Manual shooting (headers inside the box, etc...) Keepers AI issues (players running away from the ball to name one) etc... I'm hoping for: Tuning the ref logic (more foul calls) change of tactics (defensive lines playing deeper) removal/fine-tuning of heart vs form

Totally agree.

What I don't understand is why develop for this generation, and then be sooooooo late with the player faces, lineups, etc.

Might as well have just waited and released a game for next gen either in January 2014 or waited till next year.

Bad decisions all around.
