Poll Results: PES 2012 Improvments

The results of our latest poll are in and are as follows..

PES 2012 Improvements:

Animations - 30%

Graphics - 14%

AI - 13%

Game Modes - 4%

Licences - 29%

Edit Mode - 1%

The improvement that received the most votes was Animations. Animations were worked on heavily for PES 2011 and I am sure most will agree they were a step in the right direction after PES 2010? The main problem with Animations in PES 2011 was the linking together which had a big impact in the overall flow of the Gameplay. With PES 2012 being in development for some time now and being announced very soon you can count on Animations being top of there to do list.

A new PESKings poll will be up soon after the announcement of PES 2012 so stay tuned and have your say on the announcement here at PESKings.

PES 2012 Hotting Up?

With many expecting PES 2012 to be announced as early as next week the forums, rumours and hints regarding PES 2012 are starting to hot up.

A couple of months ago we did a post to summarise the latest hints and rumours regarding PES 2012 Which can be found here. Sins then we have had a few hints dropped by WENB's main man Adam.

First of all a very nice post on WENB letting the PES fans know what to expect from PES 2012, Below are some quotes from the article. Click the following link to read the full article PES 2012 – What To Expect.

"Jon said one thing very important to me, and that’s the feedback collated would be key in shaping the future."

"Recently I posted on the boards how amazed I was how much feedback was already implemented into PES 2012. Elements that caused most frustrations had been either improved or completely redone, with further focus on getting everything that the fans wanted into the game."

A day later there was also a new post on WeLovePES titled "Calm Before The..." again you can read the full article with the following link Calm Before The... The main part of the article to take note of was at the end, it read

"We're talking impressions, videos, full reveals etc. Well, maybe not full, Konami are saving some goodies for E3 after all."

Just to reiterate that it is not yet official that PES 2012 will be announced next week but as soon as we know more we will let you know.

PESKings has already been informed about many things that are going on with PES 2012 and yes it does sound amazing what they already have in the game with such a long time to go. Any true PES fan should be very excited. Not long guys......

Become A Ref

I have seen on many forums people mention Become A Ref mode for future PES games. This has never been anything that interested me until some one commented on our PES 2012 What We Know! post.

This guy did not leave a name so I am unable to credit him by name apart from "Anonymous" but below are his thoughts on what Become A Ref mode should feature and how it could work.

"Your goal would be to become the best ref! Controls would be:

R1(sprint)
L1(blow whistle for foul)
L2(red card)
R2(yellow card)

If you wait more than five seconds after blowing for foul without pressing L2/R2 you would give a warning, you can also cancel out offside decisions given by linesmen

Their would be a world referee ranking system and you get points for being fair(the best ref would be selected for the ucl final , world cup etc)

You would be fined from football organisations if you dont play fair(if you run out of money it would be game over) Also add the option for being the referee in normal multi-player matches (it would be fun be to the ref for matches being played between friends)."

So would you welcome BAF (Become A Ref) mode in PES 2012? Or is it something you have little interest in?

Messi Photoshoot

Yesterday Mess took part in a photo shoot with Konami in Barcelona. Adam from WENB was informed that the photo shoot is to do with a Ad Campaign for the recently released PES2011 3D.

Its very unlikely that there was any Mo-Cap sessions which many people were hoping for with Messi, due to there studio being in Japan also from photos shown on Facebook its just a regular photoshoot.

More details and photos can be seen on the Pro Evolution Soccer Official Facebook page. PES Facebook
