dodge 4 every1 sounds awful. I came in @ 1.4b so didn't experience this, but it would b wway to easy 4 sum1 to dodge all the way down the field and score.

P.S. 100th post :D \o/

What if you could only dodge every 15 seconds or something.. would at least mean people wouldn't be doing it all the time and would give the attackers another move to get free and defenders another move to defend.

i would love to see some ppl puting some of the ideas that are debated into code and testing them out... but unfortally most coders in the db world don't seem to like taking direction from davidm... though he would probably h8 this anyway cuz he might get proven wrong (no offense to you davidm... but sometime you do have a bit of an arrogances in the way you make your decisions)

my guess is unless we stoped relying on TV for the offical db that this wouldn't really fix anything cuz i can hear davidm's arguement now :"It has been tested for too short an amount of time to be of any use" though the same thing could be said of the betas

oo any that dodge idea sounds just like sprint...

The dodging idea is pointless. It's good for a keeper, because dodge is a crucial part of keeping. But for attackers and defenders, it would really suck.

Dodging would idd be a very bad addition to DB, as soon as a striker got into the nme pbox, he/she would practically be able to dodge into the net (point?). Dodge would imho spark a new breed of lamers, and would take some of the team play out of DB, to many egos.

Wall jumping =/ cant really see what advantage this would be, specially with having Quad Jump which is more controlled and can be done anywhere on the map. Altho wall kids would love it for obvious reasons =)

If any of these things are added keepers will need a 0 latency on SG =D, which basically means u can take the goals out to =)

:) I've posted the dodge comment before but I don't think I made it clear here. Yes, lamers would abuse it in the box. Code it so only the keeper can dodge in the box. Oh well, I just wouldn't mind seeing what it did to the gameplay.

I think Dodge is only good for keeps, but for players... noooo... As Me partner said: "would take some of the team play out of DB, to many egos"

There are many egos even today.. I Don' want any more :)

Wall jump: For what? It is useless... good for nothing... Quad Jump is good enought...

The Adrenalin Stuff would be a good Idea.. I mean, if you get enought adrenalin, you could use somekind of a Combo, and do a trick, like in soccer (althought the ball isn't on your foot :)

But tricks would be nice, but only when you got enought adrenalins.. they could be really usefull, (althought I there should be an Option to turn it Off...)

Tricks, mates, Tricky moes ;) Would be nice to see a Rainbow Kick (shoot :)
