Product Details
PES 2012 continues Konami's determination to listen to its fanbase and make key improvements to the aspects the audience demands. Thus, the focus for PES 2012 is to ensure the highest level of playability, challenge and realism for the game, whilst also improving the level of control offered to users. Fundamental changes to all areas of its AI have been made following user feedback. Similarly, teamwork is central to how the game moves and feels, enabling fans to replicate anything they would see in a real match.Features
Active AI: PES 2012 strives to recreate the movement and team ethic of
real football, and Active AI plays a vital role in this. Players will no longer
flock to a ball, but will make intelligent runs to create space and draw
markers, while others will make themselves available, instigate runs, and
visibly call for the ball. In the box, support players will make diagonal decoy
runs, full backs will overlap on the wings and midfielders will provide support
from behind the ball. The new Active AI routines ensure the flow of a match is
more natural, with specific routines for both attack and defence. Hold-up play
implemented last year has been improved for easier control with more
effectiveness. Defending as a unit plays a key role, and players now hold a
tight line, check on the distance between each other, track back as a unit, and
fill in for each other. As individuals they also make better decisions to close
space, block and tackle
Jostling: Physicality is a key component in PES 2012, with player
strength one of their key individual attributes, and having a vital effect on
how they can use their strength to win the ball in a one-on-one situation.
Players now fall depending on how they are challenged, with more realistic
animations used to show the challenges between two jostling players
Off the ball control: Equally key to opening up PES 2012 is the ability to
highlight any player at any time. A new system has been implemented, allowing
users to switch players with ease. In defence, the right stick is now used to
select any outfield player, while set pieces are also enhanced through its use.
Goal kicks, corners, free kicks and throw-ins now let the user quickly take
control of any player off the ball, enabling clever runs which create space for
an attack
Referee AI: Referees are also crucial to general game flow and their AI
has been greatly enhanced to ensure fewer interruptions to play. Decisions are
improved, and advantage is played much more regularly in offside and free kick
scenarios. As such, refs will only intervene when truly necessary, but they will
show cards if necessary once play has broken down
Pass support: Accessed through the new personal player settings, Pass
Support allows users to determine the level of AI assistance when passing the
ball. Players can opt for one of five settings from full support, right up to
full veteran setting which switches off all assistance so that the direction,
weight and speed of every pass is at their disposal.eir AI has been greatly
