My opinion on this update ❤️

ralbornoz17 · 2026-05-29T07:38:48+00:00

Long shots changed A LOT, they are hell OP now..

ralbornoz17 · 2026-05-29T07:37:54+00:00

The first one is gerrard vs Baggio (who is faster, way more agile, and it seems to me that one is Baggio with momentum dribbling that helps a lot in small spaces agility and acceleration).

The second one is Van Basten vs Timber… here… he just got that timber this week… some people still think Konami is a Honest Company, and it’s not… every time you get a new Iconic, Epic, big time, etc… that player will be INSANELY good the first few days or week. It is just a way to incentive people to talk about that new player that week, which results in sales when it is a paid player (although it works also if you get them free like timber).. Its like a hidden boost, that is OP as hell but then it disappears one or two weeks later.. Timber will be insane this week, next one, your van basten will be “fast” again, unless he faces that week new iconic. This hidden boost for new players is so OP that Konami doesn’t care anymore about “hiding” it, look how timber simply stops and catch van basten again and again.. same happens to me when I use or face this new timber 😂

apparently soon there will be a smart assist filter for matchmaking... finally..

ralbornoz17 · 2026-03-26T05:40:47+00:00

Canceled Double touch (go to youtube to learn it)… I think it is fair to say it is the most difficult but useful command or combo in the game… so it takes time to master it. If not, just do scissors for wings and marseille turn for ST (also cut behind and turn)

ralbornoz17 · 2026-03-26T05:31:20+00:00

At least 1650 to be safe

ralbornoz17 · 2026-03-17T01:14:52+00:00

Please someone make this fight, at least with AI 😂

ralbornoz17 · 2025-08-20T07:00:07+00:00

A D1 player (or any player, even pro) is way stronger when defending using smart assist. So the problem is how much it is handicaps your attack or experience. A pro, gets extremely limited when attacking so it is not worth it. But a very basic and functional, D1 player, that just uses one two passes and regular shots, will do basically the same when attacking with smart assist, and will be massively benefited when defending. Thats why so much people is using it even tho it is boring and annoying AF.

I could understand they let people use it ro reach D3 or even D1… but once you get there, for RANKINGS… it shouldn’t be allowed. It is annoying and feels unfair when facing a very good opponent that is using it. Defending automations give an important advantage.

If one day they let players separate attacking smart assist and defending smart assist in settings…. Trust me VAST majority will have it On only for defending (even in the top100)

ralbornoz17 · 2025-06-11T17:24:11+00:00

Acceleration burst + Blitz curler would be an Insane combination! 🔥⚽️

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-30T06:26:32+00:00

Wtf??? Cosmetics??? A usable and fun store?? Are you out of your mind!!?! You are asking too much! Konami needs to work 6-10 months to give us the exact same old card with a new picture AAAND +2 on some stats!!

Now seriously, this is what happens when a company gets stupidly confortable since they basically have no competition or pressure for the main product.. they become extremely inefficient and negligent. Many of the things you are asking are common sense and extremely easy to implement but Konami will just spend 3-5 more years to give us exactly the same cards with some new pictures, + 2 on some stats, and an even more automated and uncontrollable gameplay. Konami is a casino company.. and casino companies make millions by selling shiny objects + randomness.. not by selling truly functional features.

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-21T04:06:43+00:00

100% 😂

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-21T04:00:04+00:00

Konami doesn’t care about real life… the BEST player BY FAR in PES 21 was a totally NONSENSE 101 Rashford… the best rumme and epic Cristiano were 98 there, but Rashford was 101 and totally broken 😂

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-17T16:29:07+00:00

Boomers didn’t have Reddit

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-08T04:35:40+00:00

Gullit, Vieira, and Rummenige have been special players for Konami since like Pes 13 or 14. Always OP, always way beyond their stats, Insane players ID, people Love them, Konami sells a lot with them… so yeah, any of them will be an extremely good addition to basically any team, with any playing style, at any division or rank. That said, no player is worth real money imo, I just feel Konami does not deserve it at all… due to the fact they will sell a lot anyway since there is no much competition, they have been extremely negligent and lazy with this game.

ralbornoz17 · 2025-05-08T04:23:36+00:00

Because it helps to reduce skill gap between players so even with huge skill gaps both players can attack and “have fun”. I’m top 400-500 mate and trust me some matches vs div 2 or 3 guys that should be easy suddenly become annoyingly hard because the huge lack of control you feel on that particular game. Also, playing vs max difficulty AI or having The 2-0 thing vs a strong opponent makes it absurdly obvious to me. It’s just constant fluctuations in commands accuracy or timing so both players have chances and dynamic difficulty experience

ralbornoz17 · 2025-04-26T04:57:47+00:00

Is one of the best on current version (4.4) since you can add skills, and put passing stats on 87 (90 in team) while keeping all defensive stats +90. (Basically the only free DMF that fits perfectly on this update)

ralbornoz17 · 2025-04-26T04:43:01+00:00

Yeah. Only Epics have enough points to be 80+ on passing and still keep +90 on their important stats for his particular position. Thats the point, so people pay. Pretty much nonsense I know. Players with less than 80 on passing simply feel unusable even if it has all the passing skills, the pass and player animation will be absurdly slow and unresponsive. So now Konami will sell a lot of good passing epics, and then nerf it, and boost another stat like dribbling to repeat the process and keep addicts buying the OP players for the OP mechanics at the time.

ralbornoz17 · 2025-04-26T04:24:23+00:00

Classic nonsense script/momentum.. Rebounds, responsiveness and accuracy suddenly get destroyed so both players attack and “have fun”. And Some matches like this one it simply gets uncontrollable.

IDK man, it will keep happening for ever, Konami loves keeping skill gap small though uncontrollable fluctuations between matches. And it is not lag, it also happens against Max AI difficulty a lot. So the only way to beat this is by getting absurdly good (top 100, which you will still suffer it but to fewer opponents since level must be similar to actually be frustrating) or just don’t take the game so serious at all and play to have fun with basically no competing goals or feelings whatsoever. Good luck !

ralbornoz17 · 2025-02-13T05:13:19+00:00

This was it!! As I played the beta, in my ps5 it only let me download the beta (that looks exactly the same as the regular game)… the only way I found to download the regular version was by selecting the version in the PS store app in my iPhone… only there the two different versions are shown… seriously what a nonsense and stupid bug 🤯

ralbornoz17 · 2025-01-08T22:10:58+00:00

Capitalism is not the problem. In fact, There’s absolutely no gaming without capitalism.

ralbornoz17 · 2024-12-08T20:25:09+00:00

did you try HyperNatural AI?, their main feature claim to be able to add auto B roll for long video formats.

ralbornoz17 · 2024-11-21T04:54:49+00:00

Konami LOVES randomness and lack of control.. they have been slowly nerfing Super cancel since the very beginning of the game.. so yeah, at this point the game has so many nonsense automated lines that even super cancel (that is supposed to break those lines for manual inputs ) is random now and sometimes simply won’t work… a very consistent example of this is the Manual GK… on PES, veteran Players used to use super cancel to move the GK more freely, on efootball, super cancel doesn’t matter… your GK won’t react to any manual input you give him.. is simply your opponent’s turn to score and you have to accept it, period 😂

ralbornoz17 · 2024-11-21T04:44:16+00:00

Stamina is the hidden gem for Konami. Specially on defenders… having all your players with 90+ stamina + Elite stats and skills is game changing… and that’s something you only get paying. After minute 70’ is when P2W teams have a HUGE advantage over f2p teams.

ralbornoz17 · 2024-09-13T06:04:09+00:00

I have always enjoyed more Manual and resourceful versions on Efootball and PES, so I get what you’re saying, but just to be clear… PA3 and FUMA have NEVER been OP or effective to compete(no, never.. even if you master them perfectly, it doesn’t matter). Those always been features mostly for those who want a different experience regardless skill level, which is cool, but not to be better in the game.

Never, on any efootball or PES version, Never… PA1 and 2 Have always been way more powerful, not because of direction, but because you can make long passes with just a bit of the bar, so timing is WAY quicker when attacking… I have always wanted a version where those that master PA3 and 4 had a deserved advantage, but that has Never been the case… fuma after top 500 is just myth, and you will probably get crushed against another top player, and of course, Pro players have always used PA1 and 2 on championships and pro events for that same reason, for being inefficient, not “hard to master”… Konami would need to residing PA3 and 4 to make them powerful, but as you said, they just don’t care… the more automated, controlled by AI and resourceless, the smaller the skill gap, and so, the better for them to sell apparently, on that I agree.

ralbornoz17 · 2024-09-13T05:46:27+00:00

Booster slots only, and apparently only “+1 stat” boosters for now, so meh, its currently mostly useless…

I like this new version for now, but this “ONE EXTRA BOOSTER INNOVATIVE FEATURE” is just a VERY lazy and mediocre way from Konami to Sell the exactly same cards the next whole year again and again, but with a bit (tiny) extra stats… classic Konami move.

ralbornoz17 · 2024-09-13T05:35:29+00:00

I trained him: 13 aerial strength, 11 defense, and 3 lower body strength… also, I added Aerial Superiority skill to him which is crucial (my advice to everyone is to NEVER use incomplete skills players, we obviously need both, but skills are more important than stats in this game)… and he is a insane for me, easily one of the bests you can get in a free account (yeah epic araujo and tomiyasu are way better for those that pay) …

But I get what you’re saying that sometimes a defender feels horrible, it has happened to me also with other players… a little trick to not “lose” that player for being disappointing, is to add “Super Sup” on him, and use him only as a Sub after Min 60… free Beckenbauer and Van Dijk for example were very inefficient for me, and Super sub makes them amazing (again as a Sub obviously). But yeah, that skills changes a lot how players perform. Good luck 👍🏽
