PES 2019
PES 2019 E3 Trailer
Konami has released their PES 2019 trailer from E3, introducing 11 new skill traits that will help enhance player uniqueness, including cross over turn, no-look pass, controlled chip, dipping shot, and rising shot. These new skills increase the total in-game number to 39.
Player individuality has also been taken to the next level, where skills and strengths are more prominent in impact and motion during gameplay.
11 new skill traits
- Cross Over Turn
- Double Touch
- Step On Skill control
- No Look Pass
- Interception
- Penalty Specialist
- GK Penalty Saver
- GK High Punt
- Rising Shots
- Chip shot control
- Dipping Shots
Dribbling animation and fluidity is now based on a variety of factors, such as player and ball positioning along the defensive line, precise feint movements to make a break around the sides, and awareness of the close proximity of the opposition while turning.
New shooting mechanics with unique varied animations have been introduced, including the motion of the ball slipping past the goalkeeper’s outstretched hands, reactions of the attacker who just slightly missed, and more intense/joyful reactions around the goal area.
A significant introduction is Visible Fatigue, which is a reworked, rebalanced stamina system. Players will give clear visual indications when they are tired, with their stamina level impacting how they play. How you manage players during a match and when you make substitutions could be the difference between winning or losing.
Quick substitutions will be available when the ball goes out of play. A simple button press will give you recommended changes based on stamina and position. No need to interrupt the gameplay during a tense match!
Improvements have been made to make the movement of the ball more natural and varied. The trajectory of the ball is now based on posture and how the ball was kicked. Also, situations like the ball bouncing off the goalkeeper’s body or hitting a defender during a block have more realistic outcomes.
Full body touch introduced last year has been further enhanced. How the ball is controlled depends more on the surrounding situation, allowing for smoother and contextual trapping of the ball.

My first reaction too Royce.

I just played out an entire season as PSG in Ligue 1 and it was the most fun I've had with a footy title since we had Creation Centre on last-gen. Yes, PSG can basically trample the rest of the league underfoot, but the gameplay is so rewarding that I really don't mind. With the proper difficulty settings (Professional works just fine for me) I usually win, but the threat of losing is there with every match. I ended up winning Ligue 1, but I was also knocked out of the CL by AC Milan and out of the Coupe de France by a relegation candidate. And I loved it.
I tried replicating the same experience in FIFA 18 and it was hit-and-miss. Yes, the presentation is amazing and the Parc de Princes looks absolutely stunning, but after spending two weeks straight with PES, the gameplay just wasn't there for me. I haven't felt that way about a FIFA game in a very long time.
So maybe I'll switch it up this year; preorder PES 2019 and play out another season with PSG while I'm waiting for option files. FIFA will go on sale, eventually.

This was the first year in 10 years I didn’t buy FIFA. I got pes. I used to be a big pes guy back in ps2 days. But stopped playing around 2008. Now, after playing pes 2018 all year I can’t play FIFA. I find FIFA 18 so boring. I’m hoping they just build on pes 2018. Graphics look better, hopefully more editing for us

Gameplay *should* be the deciding factor, but bells and whistles make it easier to get lost.

Game mechanics seem to be better than last year. On the other hand AI looks pretty much the same it has been the last couple years.
Hopefully we get a higher quality stream at 1080p, but if not, I'll settle for some P1 v CPU matches!
I will say konami has came a long way in this department. their PES trailers never did the game justice in the past usually. usually fan videos were better than their trailers. this one is actually one of the best sports video game trailers I have seen. got me excited actually!
I am really interested in the visual fatigue and new shooting physics. I hope they tone down the lob thru ball. if these are done right along with a couple of other things it will make it the best footie game of all time for me.

i'm with you on most of this
I have also played both FIFA and PES this year like the last couple of years and at the moment i have played both in the last couple of weeks. I prefer PES offline but FIFA with friends. I only basically play fifa with friends (because the majority I have play fifa online). the fifa game is to boring after awhile offline no matter what you do to it with sliders. it's gets boring quick and doesn't hold my attention for long periods.. I always have to hand it to those that actually play multiple seasons offline every year in fifa. I don't get how they do that to be honest. I don't really do to much of that in PES either to be fair... but i'm actually completing seasons.. it's in PES not fifa. fifa clubs and co op and playing against friends online will probably always keep me buying fifa. So I'm sure I will buy both again this year. but for sure getting pes at launch this year.
They're also saying the shooting isn't as automatic and arcadey. That's good.
have you played the game lately? I dunno if it's just patched or what but I don't see a lack of fouls. The only thing I see a lack of is more red cards and penalties. I see plenty of fouls and yellow cards. some of these yellow cards I have thought should be red though and that's what i'm seeing a big lack of. . FIFA red cards are better. but yeah certainly a lot of fouls i have noticed though when play world cup PES lately. The defensive AI needs improvement? that's odd considering one of my biggest complaints in my online PES league compared to my online FIFA league is that PES computer AI helps the user to much and is too good when compared to fifa which is really bad and easier to beat so therefore the user has to control the d more in fifa to be great defensively as in PES you can actually manage control your defense much better and the computer AI is way better in this area at helping the user. this is the biggest reason why FIFA is so much easier to score goals compared to PES. with that said the AI always can get better but I think this is one of the strong areas in PES not a weak.
* There will be at least 9 new leagues. It may end up being just 9, but they are working toward more.
* Demo details to be announced July 21.
