Despite the fact that some members of the eFootball community might be hoping that unnerving images of the game's character models disappear, others have been experiencing the issue of invisibility first-hand during matches. In addition to visual bugs that look to show footballers' arms bending in extraordinary ways, some fans appear to have encountered players quite literally disappearing from the pitch mid-gameplay as well as during corner kicks.⬅️ Tinder Profil Photo

Fired up that eFootball. I know we sometimes talk about players going invisible in big matches but this is taking the piss a bit. pic.twitter.com/BtxKLbFJ6U

All-in-all it's safe to say that large portions of the eFootball community haven't been too pleased with what they've seen from the game so far. According to Steam 250, a website that ranks and assigns games by score based upon a combination of its Steam reviews and how many players have reviewed it, eFootball currently holds the top spot for the worst-rated game in the history of Steam, taking the mantle away from 2011's Flatout 3.
In a video released on Twitter, content creator @TheVerminator summed up some of the thoughts shared by those feeling let down by eFootball's release. "We all want to love this game," the streamer says. "We're not here because we hate the game. We're here because we love the game and this isn't the game that we love. This isn't the game that we grew up playing — it's just not the game anymore. It's gone. PES is dead. eFootball is dead. Konami has killed it."
Final words. I'm out. #eFootball

Prior to release, Konami had said that the game would essentially launch as a demo at this point, with a number of additional mechanics, game modes and player types to be added in during a future update. While it seems like it would take a lot to win back some members of its community at this point, the studio will be hoping to do so with the release of additional content over the coming months.
