you want to trust your keeper
if he does stupid mistakes it gets annoying, cuz it was not your fault

i guess in the end it will be an obvious thing, there are balls he gets and balls he doesnt get, not much luck or mistakes
afterall, its just the keeper....doesnt matter much

:lol:
Not good.
You won't score than as a n00b.

:hmmmz:

Depends on skill level duh :x

Lowest level shud be for people who just step in the game :) They should be able to score, but they also should learn quite fast from how far to shoot (most noobs you see can't help getting too excited and shooting from twice pzone length away from the goal)

i found a little bug, if you try to pass the ball back to your keeper, (i tested this on experienced only) he will dodge out of the way and you score on yourself.

The enemy keeper also dodges out of the way, but of course you get a point :D

dont want to sound the pessimist, and as Dave previously said - the out field bots are more important - and look like a harder task to code the AI for. How are these coming along ? You say that they will only be for fun - does this mean there is no chance of a "speedball 2" style feature with single player leagues, etc, maybe player swicthing (a la fifa) , and more of a complex single player game.

Will the bots do "cata" moves ? set up manual pass vollys ? be able to find/create space, etc ?

thanks in adavnce :)

there will be an entertaining singleplayer modus, not too many details yet

no player switching, you are still only one player, but you have some control over the others tho

cata moves?

passes+volley....hopefully, depends on makush :)

make space is a MUST, aint it?

cata - auto pass on my 3rd jump move

yus make space is a must :)

positioning, etc all important :D

tbh if the bots are good and a single player mode is fun, and also helps players learn skills so they can enter an online game with experienced players and fit in ok, then this can do wonders for the db community \o/
