I prefer football penalties, where its more luck based, and the shooter has the advantage.
It's been started on this by matt, but other things were more important.

Maybe if the ball drops infront of you and you volley it in? or something :\ < kinda lame (but for a penalty shoot out) under extreme conditions of overtime going over 5 mins. < Which will happen what? 1/70 ... and will mess up Public games. Must be a mutator to add pens :)

Other then that, David said all ... well its enough for me to understand :P

nameless: your wish list sux... maybe a keepers dream, but lol?

People should realise the game is good, or we wouldnt be playing it still... just needs the right promotion/advertising to be big!



I knew people would complain. So lets see... My thoughts: attacker starts at middle, got 15 seconds to shoot. He can t touch the ball twice, so after release it s either goal or not. keeper would save every shot? Learn how to shoot. Keeper got a descent chance, right, but if you know how to shoot, u shouldn t have probs here. hint: ask canash to teach you, he knows how to shoot goals.

1/70 for penalty shooting comming up, right. At least if volley stays as it is.

right, i m a keeper, and it s my personal wishlist. but ash, take a look at the games and u ll see, that there are more volley goals than everything else and 10-15 goals is standard for a 20 min match.

As you mentioned, the game is good. Yes it is, definately. I like it, that s why i m playing it. But i got some points which i don t like, u got some as well i guess (tho others than mine).

your pro: davidm is on your side :devil:

The main reason DB sucks hard cock right now is because of the skins...

It doesn't suit DB at all, thank you Briley :P

The only thing I hate right now would be .2.. It's too friggin annoying, its radius needs to be decreased imo.

by football PKs you mean the keeper has to stay on the line right? otherwise pks from a close distance could just be stoped by the keeper standing on near the pk spot. I think PKs should be a different from the other shooting in the game so that it becomes a new skill to master not just 1 v 1 shooting

give us throw ins too but with a very short timelimit so that it doesn't effect the game, would be fun to have something new

No, no, no and again I say a big fat, ugly NO!

Penalties.........possibly although I'm not even convinced about them either.

But THROW INS!?!?!?!?!?

One of the things I like the most about db is the fluidity and flow of the game. The only real time it stops at the moment is when a goal is scored. If you think about how often a ball would go out for a throw in then it would just be silly!

the game is paused enough allrdy due to dropouts :lol:

but hey, everyone got his own opinion, i want a smaller volley radius to make the game less spammy, others got other wishes.

that s why davidm is the black sheep, he chooses. Some like what he does, others don t. That s the way it goes :)

Penalties the way nameless has suggested them before sound great to me :)

Throw ins just wouldn't work probably /o\

Sorry to be controversial and all, but I kind of liked most of nameless' suggestions :o

Even the volley radius one :ban:

Please, I beg of you, remove .2 It ruins a lot of gameplay situations. If the ball is close enough to the person that they would catch it, they should catch it. Failing that, please, for the love of God, make the .2 radius equal to or smaller than the catch radius, because it's getting ridiculous.

That's because you're a defender, and you can't see how flawed the system is and how much it unbalances offense and defense.

you dont know how unballanced the game would be without i
its more a pro for attackers anyway, because defenders block it but cant catch it anymore from very close ranges. so the attackers can get it back
thats why this last comment was useless
