Well, the Lampard direct shot looked miles better than anything FIFA08 could offer. It was sort of volley-ish I guess (bouncing ball).

But I'd like to see a true volley shot and see how they programmed that logic.

It was a half volley! either way I hope to see more realistic volleys that are easier to execute and have alot more power and thrust behind them than in FIFA 08

I wish the Ref stuff was not done as cutscenes, they distract from the game and spoil the effect...

i was thinking the same thing, they should remove cut scenes altogether imo.. it slows things down for no reason. give the yellow card in the same camera angle as match camera
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

I have a feeling , soon we will have a video MU-Barca , as it was with Chelsea-Arsenal . First a lot of screens , and then a video.
 
Re: FIFA 09 Discussion Thread

Both missing a few frames but still shows it off well.

The guy who posted before me said there will probably be video of the picture on that site and mentioned the teams he saw on that website but he missed out the be a pro that i mentioned. he said that because the chelsea arsenal video which came after we saw those screen shots and i am willing to bet we will see the be a pro in video form in the few days.

Sorry for the confusion I know these are exciting times:COAT:

I don't agree with volleys requiring another button at all. A volley is a kind of shot that must happen when the ball is 20 cms or so above the ground.

The animation should depend on the height of the ball and the actual result of the volley should take into consideration a lot of factors, the mos obvious being: height of the ball, speed and direction of the ball, direction of the shot attempt, balance of the player, power based on powerbar determined with the button press, stats of the player regarding shooting and volleying and so...

The game shoulg use procedural animation to accomplish this, and all this should determine a ball trajectory according to the ball physics in the game.

So, it's not as simple as the volleys in pes, where they were very spectacular, but you did nearly nothing to deserve the result. So I hope they do it well and take into consideration all factors.

There are plenty of situations in which both a volley and a header are possible. That's why there should be a separate volley button.

Not least if the player about to receive the ball is shit at heading but great at volleying, or vice versa......

This could actually be accomplished pretty easy.

Basically, if you want to head the ball when it is in the air, hold the shot/pass/longpass button to fill up the power gauge (which should be included for airballs) and the player will do a header.


For a volley, fill up the gauge, then hold RB.


This does not interfere with the finesse shot command, since that necessitates holding RB before the power gauge is filled.


So, the command list:



Header
A/B/X/Y to fill power gauge

Volley / Bicycle kick attempt (depending on position and trajectory of ball)
A/B/X/Y to fill power gauge, then hold RB at any point after gauge has started to fill.

Finesse Volley (useful if close to goal and you don't want the player bombing the ball over)
Hold RB, then fill power gauge with A/B/X/Y

Finesse header won't be possible, since headers are less controllable than volleys, and a powerbar for headers would give sufficient control until a way to incorporate control for ability to choose if the player should head in a lobbed fashion or head it into the ground and thigns like that).

Not true. Volleys can be performed a meter or more above the ground (scissor kicks etc).

Also, the volley command could be tied in with bicycle kicks etc to provide a way to command your player to use his feet on the ball whether it is in the air around him or above him.


Also the situations where a volley command would be useful are where the ball drops down from a height, and you want to volley it, but pressing shot too early will make him stick his head out rather than kicks it, and pressing after the ball has passed head-height means that the player has no time do that majestic "charging for the goal of the year" pulling back of his leg.
