(1) Handball is back!
Before you groan this is actually good news because I only had 4 or 5 handballs happen in all the games I played. I didn't know why a foul was called when it first happened but then the commentator says "and the referee has spotted a handball". It happens pretty rarely, less than once per game from what I played and adds to the realism I think because it's a definite part of the real game.
(2) Much smoother gameplay.
Although I have a decent enough graphics card (FX5700 Ultra) and PES4 PC runs pretty smoothly on a good resolution, it still stuttered a little for me (even without any patches) and wasn't always very smooth if I had anything at all running in the background. I actually compared the demo from PES4 too to see if it may just have been a problem with the full game. WE8:I runs super smooth on my machine even at the highest resolution which used to lag for me.
(3) Tripping over easily.
This too seems to have changed. I played 4 games of the PES4 demo and 4 games with the WE8:I demo with identical teams and tried to count the number of times players seemed to trip and fall with minimal contact too easily. After 4 games, PES4 totalled 27 while WE8:I totalled 5. This may just be coincidence but the balance of the players seems to have been affected within the core programming rather than the stats which haven't changed. |
