Question1: What did you mean with ‘no loading screens’?
“Unlike PES 2009, there’s no visible ‘stalling’ screen between the tactics menu and kick off. We’ve heard Konami reps rumour playing as one man, or similar, like FIFA as the game ‘loads’, but this wasn’t in code we played.”
Q2: What about the goalkeepers?
“They definitely spill the ball less, so less jammy rebound goals. BUT they are capable of insane reaction stops.”
Q3: Do you know when the demo will hit?
“No idea, sorry. Almost definitely post-Cologne (which is August 19th), but PES 2009 date was 2nd October.”
Q4: Will Bundesliga be in PES 2010?
“Konami told us it would be in PES 2010, but we haven’t seen it, and it’s not been confirmed by Konami Japan. More soon.”
Q5: Are the player names in block capitals (e.g. MESSI)?
“Er, we didn’t notice. And we DON’T CARE.”
Q6: Are the volleys different?
“Not played enough to tell, but chest control takes longer for less skilled players.”
Q7: Has running changed?
“Noticeable difference from walking to running in terms of response depending on player ability. As a result, a lot of your best work is done at walking pace using quick passes and subtle feints - it took us hours to adjust”
Q8: What effect do the tactical sliders have?
“Make a clear, visible difference to team attitude, off-the-ball support and AI pressing. Impressive, all told”
Q9: What about the commentary?
“Sounded same as PES 2009 to us, since it’s not been updated yet. No need to worry yet.”
Q10: Does the keeper still does auto-shots?
“Sorry, didn’t notice. It wasn’t annoying, let’s just say that.”
Q11: Is there a power bar for passing?
“Once again, didn’t notice, but passes were pressure-dependent, and player dependent.”
Q12: Can you change tactics sliders on the fly?
“Not in the code we played, but this may still be work in progress.”
Q13: Is the second defender (square button) more effective?
“I didn’t test, sorry - but it was definitely harder to score, and much harder to find space without being closed down.
Q14: Is there a full 3d crowd?
“Yes. But there’s a a lot of identical looking men, sat in oddly symmetrical patterns - but it’s definitely better”
Q15: Do you know if 2v2 online (guest mode like it was in PS2’s PES 6) is back?
“PES 2010 uses ‘an enhanced version’ of the PES6 system, claim Konami Japan. Our hope? Yes.”
Q16: Do players still run like they ate a fork?
A tiny bit, but new mo-cap animations are being implemented as we speak. Judgement: withheld.”
Q17: Do you know anything about weather settings? e.g. snow weather, dynamicly changing weather?
“We played in rain on super early code, and it made the screen very dark and grey - it must be placeholder.”
Q18: Does it have 360° dribbling?
“PES 2010 not 360 dribbling, but twisting/feinting at walking pace very responsive.”
Q19: Will there be only lobby hosting?
“It’s not confirmed, but we were told Sony will host, i.e. like most other PS3 games.”
Q20: Did they finally get online right?
“Konami must be confident about online, since they were talking about a ‘closed’ pre-release code trial. They can’t mess it up again.”
Q21: Will Old Trafford be in?
“Man U should be licenced, and Anfield is in PES 2010, so we hope: yes.”
Q22: Do players still freeze after freekicks?
“Post free-kick freezing has gone. Good.”
Q23: The ‘top line stats’ seem to be wrong (e.g. Torres only 80), what do you think?
“See our recent blog for more. It could be that condition affects the ‘top line’ stat, too - Konami to confirm.”
Q24: Do players still feel like they are ‘on trails’?
“Not especially, there was less of that ‘train rail’ dragging thing defenders get near the line.”
Q25: Why is there the ability to turn player cards off?
“Since it may clash with your tactics sliders – but we need to play more to test their finer impact.”
Q26: Some news about the editor?
“Konami: ‘more items such as boots which may alter gameplay. Also, imported audio files can be used for more areas.’ ”
Q27: Did they tell you when they started to do motion capture sessions?
“Don’t know officially - in terms of initial mo-cap tests - but there was the Barca/Messi event on the official PES 2010 blog.”
Q28: Should we worry about PES 2010?
“No. 50% code suggests more refinement/consolidation than revolution, but there’s LOADS left to show.”
Q29: How is the new penalty system?
“Like the old one, but less digital, so shot directions need to be ‘held’ more precisely.”
Q30: What about shooting?
“Long-range ’screamer’ shots back for PES 2010.”
Q31: Are the nets still hold down by sandbags in PES 2010?
“No, they have normal bars around it now.”
Q32: If you have played FIfa 10, which do you prefer?
“That’s the killer question. And it’s too early to call, either way. Sorry. We’ve always been pro-Pro Evo, but are open minded.”
Q33: Did chants improve?
“Chants being reworked, with bespoke importing options said to be improved.”
