Will there be an option to turn ref strictness up in the final version?

Itd be gravy if there was

I wish, but I'm pretty sure I heard it was going to be in PES 14, along with snow and a 3rd kit. Hope I'm wrong.

I'd like them to add those and also things that were in previous games like a 2nd goalkeeper kit and the ability to mix uniforms, I enjoyed making combinations to avoid matching colors with the other team.

Or the referee, heh. I know I've passed to the ref a few times at midfield.

Retail officially out in stores in Europe (Eastern Europe).Maybe it's time for a full game impressions thread?I think It will help fellow gamers and future buyers of the game in UK,Western Europe and North/South America.

2nd goalkeeper kits are in. The only problem is that, like in recent versions, it is the same as the 1st.

Really? I know that in 2012 there was only one, at least in edit mode while editing kits.

The file structures of team who have licensed kits have sets for home and away, both with player and keeper kits.

I like PES' demo better than FIFA's, but I hate how the AI in it appears to be as attack minded as it was in PES 12. PES' gameplay would be perfect if only the CPU wasn't so aggressive all the time, which is frustrating, because it's one thing that FIFA does get right with the correct sliders. It's the only thing that kept me from loving PES 12, and I'm afraid this year will be no different.

Still, I'll end up picking up PES before I do FIFA, like always.

Hey guys can I get any tips on neutralizing all the lob through balls to the opposing striker and defending corner kicks? It seems like in EVERY game I play I allow goals on the same plays... also from crosses. I could be playing as Barcelona or Real Madrid against Bilbao and the cpu always finds Llorente with a lob through ball and he beats with speed and power the CDM (Busquets or Alonso) Why is it that the CB's are always out of position? It's not like I'm losing the ball at midfield or anything...it happens with a counter but also when the cpu is "building" the attack. I've become very frustrated and this is only on Pro! Thanks

I really like the way the demo plays, but one thing always bothers me with PES. On corners and crosses into the box it seems like some plays are just impossible to defend. Your defender just is on the wrong side of the striker and by the time you try to move the ball is in the back of the net.

amazing and realistic

yeah well, that�s what bothered me in real life, too

Not every play can be defended, some times you just draw the short straw so to speak

MLO gameplay is a experience this year, that's for sure. Played about 10-15 games tonight. Finished only 1 win, and bunch of draws. Yeah, not so good. Granted, quite a few of those teams were really stacked. One guy had Neymar, Lampard, Joe Hart and a couple of other stars. If anything, it's good practice for getting better vs the CPU. Default MLO gameplay is at normal speed, so when I went back to playing the CPU at -1 speed and Top Player I played extremely well. Shame we can't customize the online gameplay more. I'd imagine playing an all-manual ,-1 speed, and 15-20 minute half game vs a good player online would be a treat.

Hello all, first post in along time for me (since 2007)... anyways, just got the game yesterday and played a few matches, here are some rough impressions:

- controls are deeeeep
- the AI opponent doesn't just boot the ball upfield anymore
- the AI opponent is clinical with its finishing, but their chance usually came from a mistake I made
- ML cutscenes and general layout are basically unchanged
- the ML training system from last year is gone, thankfully. It has been replaced by a system in which you allot a set amount of points to different areas like strength, dribbling, etc.
- the game looks pretty similar overall to last year's, my wife even said "this looks the same, is it even different?"
- shooting is more fun so far

Gut reaction:
There are some improvements. I didn't like 2012, but played a decent amount of it. 2013 is probably better, but too early to tell. Overall, I feel like I've been playing the same game for a few years now, but I'm going to give this some more time definitely as I feel like there are some subtle changes under the hood that are going to make it worth playing.
