volley-banana -_- aren t volleys strong enough yet? reduce the offensive volley radius plz

Indeed. Volleying is too effective as it is...Let's make it easier to beat the goalie with banana vollies.

...or introduce a random "wind" factor.

Dont think of it as wind.. more of... a variable that can sway the ball if u hit it, not by a lot... just enough N, E, S, W, NE, SW... etc to make some variation.

Of course not so powerful no ball is on target, but if you're changing to banana shots, how often (in RL tho) are they on target? Freakin lucky usually if they are (with noteable exceptions), which is maybe what the variable can do, make it miss or make it freakin' lucky....

meh.. anything but more "GK sucks, underpowered!!11!" thingies

oh, and while we're at it, why don't we make it so that occasionally angry supporters charge at you of you miss a goal, and then beat the shit out of you!

Repeatadly!

oh, oh, or you occasionally slip in november, because the grass is wet, causing you to miss the goal by several meters!

strafe vo isnt earier to catch.

i think keepers radius is too small, i dont like the idea of volley banana and i think wind is great

ran# n,e,s,w,ne,sw..etc =1min

would be cool

Deathball is complicated enough without wind.

DavidM - You'll make my day the day 2.4 comes out and you're able to use the UT2k4 skins!!! I'll be SO happy and so will MANY other people!!!!

The ball seems very cool and I'm very excited about the release of 2.4. Don't rush it.. we want it to be perfect (a bug here or there is fine) but most of all, be sure to put those models in

This might be a first for me but... -=GJ DavidM=-

Keepers want extra benefits for keepers...etc....

Mongeh · Post by **Mongeh** » 13-12-2004 12:16

well think about it how many attackers want better keepers? , i do think with the new ball the keeping .. skills? ya know radii etc need to be checked over, not necessarily changed, probably be done anyway

-New Ball, correct physics, Karma Support
-New push mode that allows pushing the ball with altfire when its slow enough (otherwise it bounces as usually)
-New Multiball mode, you can set the amount of balls you want to play with (default 1), when you own a ball and touch another one, the bounce or push mode will be used on that one
-With that comes an option to set if the game goes on after a goal in multiball, or if it stops at that point, for all to respawn.
//-New Model attachments, customizations possible now
-Ball no more going through you when you fire it while being close to the wall or looking at the ground
//-New volley-banana. When you volley the ball while having altfire held, depending on the angle where you hit the ball, it will spin

-Noob-Cannon console msg <-- when you try a noob cannon (which will not work) you get a msg "DavidM says: No Noob Cannon"
