Middle radar

yeah, i played db before the middle radar and when i came, i couldnt stand it. i only started using it recently, and have found it to be very useful. i mainly use it for my positioning as keeper, and that has helped immensely.

Always use the middle radar, best thing to use to see where defenders are win attacking. Only time i ever use the other radar is to see if i can lob a pass over defenders to a teammate.

lol i play in defence most, so i pretty much play by watching the main radar.

i only use the other radar

maybe ill try the middle radar again. i lowered my HUD transparency so hopefully that will make it less intrusive.

i use both, as keeper i'll use the middle when ppl are attacking, and the full one when the ball is in the other half, the middle one means i dont have to look up when someone is wall passing, i just need to look roughly where the ball is gonna go, and track the players in those positions, helps save wall vollies :p

They're both invalublue to me. The fact that the middle radar is slap-bang in the centre means that you don't have take your eyes off the action for a second. It's also perfect for getting infront of people that are behind you for a boost.

For volleying i find using the middle radar very effective, so even when i cant see the ball on my screen i can often hit some volleys. Also i use it to recieve passes without looking at the ball carrier so i can focus on who is marking me and not have to look at the ball.

Would it be hard to add an option to move the middle radar to bottom left corner of the screen? I find it gets in the way when i'm trying to save shots as keep, but cant do without it when playing in the field

edit: hmm or perhaps top left corner as bottom lefts seems kinder cluttered already...

ps is there any way to adjust the transparency of the middle radar? changing the hud transparency doesnt effect it it seems

you could prolly bind it to a key, all you'd need is the imput commands for it.

Didnt wanna make a new thread for one question, so ill use this old one:

I don't use the middle radar cause i find its annoyin (it shows a too big area)

but i know it is very useful so heres my question:
Is there any way that it shows a smaller area (e.g. only the volley distance) "RadarRadiusDecrease" just doesnt seem to work.
