Another frustrating aspect of both previous iterations of the competing soccer series was that players did not make intelligent runs and strayed offside far too often. You'll also appreciate sharper player AI. Now the ball won't just go straight to your opponent once again or out of play you'll get it. That above point regarding defense knits well with PES's so-called 'Perfect Defense', which allows timed and effective tackles. PES 2016 has claimed to change that, allowing you to take those chances and make split second defensive decisions. I'd execute a tackle but there was always a delay - an automatic red. And it's not just the attacking player it's the defender too. You can move better in tight positions and better harness feint/skill moves (which I abuse). A football game lives and dies on the responsiveness. Dribbling around players, making that incisive pass at just the right moment is invaluable. The 1v1 control has been improved - one of the most crucial features in a football game. In PES 2016, you can now use the left stick to put the player off or jostle for the better position making you feel like you actually have a chance. But sometimes you just need to boot it to safety. True, this made me a better player by playing the ball low and being conservative. Whenever I booted it out from the keeper or cleared the ball, my opponent always seemed to win the header. Headers were often very frustrating for me in football games. It's players being jostled around the pitch, struggling when being tugged by defenders, that hopes to bring a sense of real physicality to the (not always) beautiful game.Īnother feature I was impressed with, and which reminded me of EA's recent addition to its Madden series, was 'Aerial strength'.

What this means is scrappier, more realistic interactions between players while they shuffle and push for space within the box and navigate the rest of the pitch.

PES 2016 now has a more advanced collision system. I say bring back Pierluigi Collina the mad-eyed ref, or have one of those polygonal, slightly Japanese character models who graced the early covers. The star on the packaging never had much of an effect on me. The cover of PES 2016 features the Brazilian Boy Wonder Neymar Jr., the third member of Barcelona's deadly triple-threat attack force. This promises a huge boost in responsiveness and enhancement to every facet of the game from player appearance, online play and, everyone's favorite, Master League. Players can experience an enhanced Fox Engine, which the developers admit was going through a teething process in last year's game. PES 2016's new motto is 'Love The Past, Play the Future', meant to highlight the series' heritage and core values while looking forward to major improvements.
