but I am affraid 90% of the players (wallkids) will complain
And complain they will. As a sweeper, I love players trying wallpasses as they're a piece of piss to defend against. Other than bringing back the old walls for Curve I don't think any changes outlined in this thread would be worthwhile...

ya, wallkids never ever score, its a shame they keep on trying it over and over :/

I will just try it, so when people get used to the wall they will learn to attack in good ways

YAY! \o/
Thank you :)

I don't think it will be as many as 90% of players tho. Some will complain because it is the only way they can score - but if the old db-curve wall comes back then it's still possible ... just you have to be carefull how high you aim it. There are plenty of good players about who can score via many other ways tho.

db should randomly reverse the x and y axis of your mouse. that will make things much harder.

i think should just set a constant volley power of 1900

2000 was too fast
1800 is slightly too slow

1900 would be perfect

"move forward = more power"

Maybe this can be used for boosts as well. So the keeper can boost players much further when dodging towar the player
I have to agree, the only thing I'm agreeing with on this thread is old Curve coming back and OldCube retuning. But no way should the current Cube be discarded, just a defination made between the two.

YOYO...ever studied physics? o_O

P.S. I quite like a couple of the ideas...but they are too much to change really.

Volleys still should be slightly slower i think as standard...and maybe only 50% power if u were the last person to touch the ball b4 u volley (to stop whoring)

Can we just plain LOCK the settings at some point...

IE now

(apart from sprint back to 1.6).


Volleys are fine. Maps are fine.

Changing gameplay every new version really gets annoying.

Up the features / increase the map complexity or design... but lockdown the rules... and just let people adjust and be happy.
