Right-click volleys/bounce volleys

I know not many people like these, (mainly due to the irregularity of it actually happening...y is this???) but i do like them...quite often score with them, pass (quick 1-2's), or just nudge the ball on a bit...to run onto...
I really think it would add to the game to make it so that when u have right-click (or whatever u have bound, *cough* robo *cough*) pressed, the ball bounces off u...every time...no matter how fast or slow it's going...and u should be able to move a stationary ball with it... e.g. dead ball on the ground, u run into it with alt-fire pressed down and it bounces along in front of u a little, u jump on top of it and it bounces up etc.
It would be a kinda dribble, but if u get the bounce right, wouldn't un-balance the game, as it would be risky to do.
Any thoughts??

so you would be able to keep top speed by pushing the ball but risk the chance of loosing the ball?

I like that.
I don't know how often I'll have right click held down but I catch the ball

Yeah great idea. I like the bouncevolleys, you definately need some skill to use them so it won't be overused.
Another idea:
In volley-only mode, it's not possible to charge a wallpass and bounce it in, but it IS possible to wallpass with a volley and then bounce it in. My opinion is to have the charged wallpass / bounce goal enabled again, it's very unexpected and a nice tactic ;o

bounce is buggy as hell at the moment the ball sometimes goes crazy fast for no reason

Why wouldnt you just volley it? Or let our best friend deflect take care of it if you are that close, and hope it goes in? (i've done that actually, haha)

why not just ask to put dribble back in? at least that took skill...

Yeah I like that idea a lot better than having to perfectly time it because I've got like a 50% volley vs. catch. Like in VO servers I'll try and volley and somehow always catch it instead so then I just shoot it. But yeah this work.

easier != better.
You have much to learn my young padawan. Soon your volleyskillz will be mad, and your timing l33t.
