Increasing the radius is just nuts.

how about TAKING IT OFF TOTALLY

Theres an idea u can take to the bank

increasing the radius, you dunno which one i mean

the one of the oppossing play, so its easier to block these balls (but not catch)

hmm. sounds better than whats happening at the moment.. but what about the speed?

it shouldnt gain velocity when it hits the opposing player.

I haven't been able to experiment with the deflection a whole lot, but I like Heretic's idea to make it a configurable setting. There will be some people who prefer to have it on, and those that prefer it to be off.

We dont want to block the ball.. we want to CATCH the ball. HINT HINT!

could be a way to get past the d surge we all know you like that

:p

no... the pickup delay (to prevent dribble) and the randomness of the bounce make it impossible to get around the defense with. I'v tried a few times already in pubs. It doesnt work for beans, just send the ball flying off randomly and makes the game spammy.

Deflection is so idiotic... i love stuffing a shot on defense and watching the ball bounce around like its addicted to speed. There were even a few goals scored in scrims from deflections too, which is bs imo.

omg you people really like control don't you? this is the ONLY thing in DB atm that is uncontrolled by the player (in the area of ball movement).......and you can't seem to fathom a change as little as this....

a while ago, I suggested this:

which brings me to an idea......say the ball is travelling mighty fast at a defending player from an attackers volley or shot (volleys within 25m and 95%+ powered shots within 20m) and the defender catches it. CRAP - i say have a deflection system so it bounces of the defender much like a body volley but in some random direction. This is what pros try to do in soccer/football - why not in DB?

yeah ok my values were stupid but you see my vision...imo if were deflected in the way described in my quote, we would be happy with it.......but if it doesn't get changed the way you want it - STOP WHINGING FFS - tbh ive never known a more complaintant bunch of people in my life.....
