![]() ![]() ![]() Quite simply, if the game is bad, there’s no incentive to keep playing it unless you gave Konami money in the form a pre-order bonus or some other in-game microtransaction. This is the risky side of offering a game for free. Local matches using nine renowned teamsīeing where we are now in the game’s cycle, most of us have long since given up on eFootball 2022.Looking back at that roadmap, only two significant milestones were met: Unfortunately for Konami, the poor initial reception combined with the lofty promise of cross-generation gameplay was too much for Konami to bite off. It’s not uncommon for developers to run afoul of project timelines, especially in this day and age of shortages both in the labor and parts departments. What seems like ages ago, Konami released this developer roadmap to show what was to come in late 2021/early 2022. Nevertheless, companies are sticking by Konami, so if the developers ever get their gameplay back to being decent, there could be some folks in North America that would love a go at a possible legit CONCACAF Champions League. That time off would have seemed like the more logical time to contract out visuals considering the studio was switching to a new engine on new hardware, but perhaps there were other factors in play behind the scenes - thinking contractually here. ![]() The timing is pretty odd considering Konami made the 2021 game a slightly improved but mainly glorified roster update. I’ve always preferred PES‘ body scans and faces to FIFA, but even those two areas were downgraded from the last time we saw PES. Inked in the last couple weeks, NeXR specializes in photorealism through avatar creation and full body scans. If you’re not familiar with NeXR Tech, don’t worry, neither was I until a few days ago. In addition to acquiring Liga MX, Konami has also selected NeXR Technologies for a two-year deal. From the sounds of it, not only do we get the teams fully equipped with players and kits, but we also get the stadiums and that is something that Konami has been missing out on the last couple years. That’s a nice get and wraps up the brace of North America’s top two divisions, with the MLS already signing a partnership last year. The implementation process will begin starting Summer of 2022. The agreement will allow Konami to have access to players and stadiums of Liga BBVA MX to take images, including 3-D scanning and movement capture, as well as true recreations of the official uniforms of each club. Regardless, since the last update Konami has added a partnership with Mexico’s top league, Liga BBVA MX. Version 1.0.0 is supposed to be the important game saver that brings such amenities like “Sharp Kick” but it’s long overdue and worthy of its own section here.įor the life of me, I can’t understand why teams - let alone leagues - are deciding to partner up with Konami at this point. ![]() The once proud ball physics have regressed, and the brilliant individuality that made PES what it was over the years is gone. Player switching and awareness are still awful. Dribbling is a bit different than the last time we saw PES, but it’s probably one of the only bright spots in a game full of missteps. Either way, the adjustment is one of muscle memory and of no actual change on Konami’s part. New button inputs, such as having sprint tied to the right trigger, took some time to get used to. Any improvements can be attributed more to gaining familiarity with a game that differs from eFootball PES 2021 Season Update. Sadly, the gameplay hasn’t changed drastically since the last update, which for the most part concentrated on bugs and visual oddities. Thanks for kill my fav game #efootball2022 here is a Video with Ansu Fati running like naruto /JQ2KRr2RwC Even after a fairly large patch (v.091) on November 5, the game still remained largely unplayable for all besides the most loyal of PES enthusiasts. The bugs were so prevalent and bad that Konami offered refunds to anyone who purchased the By then, the game had released in such a poor state that it was temporarily the #1 game sitting atop Steam’s Top 250 Hall of Shame (It has since fallen to #2). The last time we talked eFootball 2022 was way back in early November. Instead, let’s check in with the folks over at Konami to see what has transpired by giving an eFootball 2022 update. We’ve covered the tumultuous release and the fallout from it, so we’re not going to be kicking that dead horse again. Believe it or not, eFootball 2022 has been out for nearly five months now. ![]()
