Keep 2 back, that always prevents 3v1s...usually...

Cos more people think jumping makes you run faster

and the fact is, not many ppl volleywhore now because shot power is so must overdone

it happends more in this verson probably for a couple reason's:

1. shooting usaully forces ppl to spread out more which makes it take longer to get close enough to boost (if you are having a real problem with this rethink your offensive stratagy and use more blocking to get the goal)

2. either people are learning to block the boost or your O isn't blocking the boost of the other team ( i don't know how euro is)

3. this is old but boosting is less powerful than it used to be back in the 4 ppl pbox camping days ( a good thing)

4. maybe this is just na but ppl seem to have gotten worse @ boosting back, they hit to high often

5. a lot of O don't like being the first one to be boosted back and try to behind run other players (even if it not the obvious quick change you see in pubs you can still see it in high level games) this slows down boosts

how about getting 2 sweeps ? O_o

instead of all going in attack ? wouldnt that fix the 3v1 ?

[1234]Jr · Post by **[1234]Jr** » 09-05-2004 13:12

yes, thats usually what "keep 2 at the back" means

gg post reading

Berk has a good point too:

"2. either people are learning to block the boost or your O isn't blocking the boost of the other team ( i don't know how euro is)"

Very true, lots of sweepers and even keepers do a great job stopping attackers.. ok me ..boostin back quickly.

It's not a bad game feature, it's bad teamplay.

The jury finds this thread: GUILTY of falsified moaning and orders it closed until further noticed.

3on1? whats wrong about it? if the team with 1 in def allows it, their fault.
If you make it fair for the 1 player it will fuck up the whole game, come on...
means you only need 1 defender cause he can stop anything and have 3 hangers

I agree with David *scream*

there should be a bootcamp (can i use this word here?) for attackers to learn how to play d.

this means boost back.. cover ur man.. AND STOP THEIR BOOSTS!

Post by **DavidM** » 09-05-2004 15:50

*booStcamp

thats more like it, attackers being to dumb too boost back etc
surprised to hear it from rage

I personally think that an extra man on each team can help if people play thier positions correctly.... it would make it more like a hockey situation... 1 keep 2 defenders 3 attackers ... classic formation.

that way you can keep your mid fielder, your 2 wingers, and have 2 defenders 1 covering each side of the field....

my .02... but i think it would be much smoother... especially in boosting peeps up... 2 boosters = quicker boosting procedure.

Also, I think there should be some kind of a offsides routine... I'll think about it more and come up with a good method of doing this... but for now i'll leave it be, as it would probably take some serious coding.

Peace for now... I'll bring more addins/redesigns of the game in a while.

nothing wrong with hosting a 6v6 but then its cheaper for a 10man server nowdays.

Post by **DavidM** » 09-05-2004 21:52

5on5 is perfect if people play properly (not public and most likely not pickup)

theberkin8or · Post by **theberkin8or** » 09-05-2004 22:22

6 v 6 would only work if boosting was removed... which isn't gonna happen
