据国外权威人士透露，有个坏消息会即将公布，并判断这坏消息内容应该不是有影响PES2012的游戏质量问题（那么这应该和游戏模式和手感无关），如果这样最有可能的坏消息是：
（以下均是国外网友的猜测且那位权威人士貌似默认了以下其中一点）
1. 正式版延后
2. 没有试玩版
3. 封面人物的更换
4. 没有传说中的新球队授权
5. 无PC，PS2或PSP版（这符合那句话——we are getting news that will infuriate some of the fanbase. Like, big time这条消息会让一些粉丝们愤怒异常）
6. 欢迎大家补充。。。
原文：
Guys, heart to heart.
Now, very soon, we are getting news that will infuriate some of the fanbase. Like, big time.
It's rubbish of me to say that, then say nothing else, but I swear me saying the above will get me in real crap. I just want to be honest with you guys. I'm not happy right now.
But again, no questions, just sit tight and wait.
Well you're right in thinking away from the game, as this bad news doesn't impact the quality of the game, thankfully.
