PES 2016 Available Today, Post Your Impressions

Hello. First time poster here. Just one quick observation re league/master league/cup settings: It seems we are unable to choose day or night matches which actually is beginning to bother me somewhat. First, it doesn't seem realistic that all such games are played at night and second, I personally prefer to play with day-time settings as the graphics seem more fluid and realistic to me.

Does anyone know whether this was an issue in PES 2015 and/or whether this is gonna change in a later patch?

Typical PES thing.. last year we could easily save the game and reload it and the time or weather will change. But last year we had a preview of the stadium before the match so we know if its day or night. Not this year though

I actually prefer the night games because the shadows in certain stadiums drive me crazy

It was the same way in 15. It actually makes it difficult to keep up with the ball as it is very, very distracting. Konami has to be aware of this.

Last year I had FIFA and it has stadiums that are the same way. A simple toggle option would be nice. Might not be 'realisitc', but i'd never have the stupid shadows there if I had a choice.

Is it me or the rosters are still horrible. I play with Lazio and Matri is still in ac milan lorik caña is still on lazio and should be on Nantes. I also saw chicharito still on Man united. I didn't keep looking for other players but I'm sure is a disaster. Can someone confirm

[billmatic]

yes - none of the deadline day deals are included. apparently 2 months isn't enough time to get that done.

After playing many, many games, I sadly have to say I believe PES has a long way to go. I love the series, and wanted to give it another go after 15, but its been tough.

So many issues that need addressing - the ball looks unrealistic, keepers floating jumps, low foul count, shooting from certain angles is a guarantee goal .. and yet others, like ball reception, is one that is driving me nuts. These guys are professional soccer players, any pass thats a tad harder than avg sends these guys with a huge bouncing ball they have to trap. Unless theres an expert way to trap I'm not in the know of.

So many animations look stupid, or there arent enough animations for a certain action. Ive read some ppl on these forums saying PES is so much smoother, but it feels so bulky and clunky to me. I love PES, and dont get me wrong, will keep playing, and hope to see improvements over the years, but my god, the animations are brutal.

Things like two players come in contact and it looks like one player loses interest or is unsure of what to do, and just stands there Defence that look very good, but then make such a bad move that its not due to ratings, its just poor coding and looks like they dont wish to play any more.

Sometimes this game looks amazing, but so many other times it looks years old.
