pbox is player made, not added to db.
also with easy volleys.. think about ping.
easy volley with good ping = easy
easy volley with nasty ping = just about able to volley
hard volley with good ping = just about able to volley
hard volley with bad ping = er, eatch the ball or miss it?
i think volleys are fine, it seems easyer to work out a volleyd ball direction then a normal shot..to what i see as keeper anyway.

volleying is a skill, not a privlage.
untill you realize that, people will keep being pbox whores.

ok buddy, volleys are fine to me, but they shouldn't be easier to score with than with regular shooting, which is what is happening now

volleys can always be prevented by the def, so i dont see a problem there

yes, about 3/10 volleys score where 7/10 shots score.. ok that will vary but you get the drift

mine score well over 90% unless i miss the net.

um no against a "good" defense it will be about 7/10 volleys score where 1/10 shots will score
its way too "unbalanced" it should be the other way around

ok surge thats good and all for you but you ever think about most of the other players? they miss and catch volleys most of the time. cant go build the game just for you can we.

its ok, i'll just leave it at this: bring back shooting to db and it will be fun again, and reducing the scoring power of vollies and boost goals won't hurt either

easy for me? it made it all harder for myself 0_o
i became worse every version
removing powerup sound is totally the wrong point where to start with reducing pbox camping
and with this overwhelming poll result i couldnt do it anyway

It is very obvious to me and it should be to everyone else that the NA playing style is different than the EURO playing style. When ever I go to play in a euro pub, no one ever shoots, even if its on cube and its 5on5. The people that say that volley's now are harder than they were before are completely wrong. It used to be only a few select people could pull off a good volley, now every single person can do it, including those people that usually only play defense. Doesn't this show you Davidm how much volley's are easier now.

yeah about that poll, most of those people didn't even know why to take it out, would have helped if they had heard the argument before voting on something they knew very little about
