online play is rubbish

SamanthaCurtis96 · 26-02-2008, 04:45 PM

I only brought the game today and ive had 2 games online and both players all they do is flick the ball from one end to the other that is so boring thought this game was about skill not just one move.

Online is the best bit because its fair.

Ive won 16 lost 16 and The challanges are so repititive boring.

SamanthaCurtis96 · 26-02-2008, 04:49 PM

im stating my fact about the online play if u play this game show ur skill not just one move

mrskillls · 26-02-2008, 05:02 PM

99 % of people online will flick run. you cant escape but I did escape by snapping the game last night ( no joke )

Kaka11|LFC · 26-02-2008, 09:57 PM

SamanthaCurtis96 · 26-02-2008, 11:57 PM

i played wiv a guy on my friends list today and i lost all 3 games but i didnt care cause it was a skilled game

I think I've been a little lucky with online play so far. I've played 4 games total and have lost all of them

, but have not had any trouble with the flick/run people. I'm alright at beating the challenges, but against real people I still need a lot of practice. I agree that online matches should showcase all skills involved in the game and not just one which happens to be overpowered at the moment. I just hope that if I keep playing online I can avoid the flick/run problem.

I have played 2-3 ranked matches online, and every opponent did the "Y" trick all the time, so its not funny at all. Therefore I play with friends online, and maybe a unranked match. Samantha Curtis is a good friend to play with, she is not "cheating" either

SamanthaCurtis96 · 27-02-2008, 11:27 AM

anyone that as 360 just add me and it will be fair

Ghost-Zero · 01-03-2008, 08:03 AM

Anyone with a PS3 can add me and get a fair game. GhostZero1

Kaka11|LFC · 01-03-2008, 09:23 AM

wow i played a couple of online games today after getting the game and i can see why so many threads about the flick run were started, it ****ed me off and i also have connection problems, whenever i versus someone who isnt from australia one of us really lags out

Kaka11|LFC · 01-03-2008, 01:19 PM

this guy i was playing started doing the flick run constantly(whenever someone does it to me i do it back to them but if someone plays fairly i'll play fair) neways it got to the point where i couldnt take it and flick ran back and it was 7-7 and it went to next goal wins, i had a game breaker so i ended up winning then next thing i know is that i got a message from him saying "dont copy" after dont copy was the swear word for a female genital

bigAl · 01-03-2008, 10:10 PM

Didn mean to do that. Does anybody else think they could have used more buttons there are to many spares but thats only my opinion!!!!!!!!!

ROOMANIA · 01-03-2008, 10:27 PM

I finally got my online fixed today and my first game was against a flick-runner. I beat him 7-3. made me laugh it did as i was far superior to the guy and he thought he could beat me with his running with endless flicks! but to be embarrased.

SamanthaCurtis96 · 01-03-2008, 10:29 PM

how did u stop them

partly down to his naivety. but mostly down to me having mastered the tackling. completely.

Kaka11|LFC · 01-03-2008, 11:21 PM

it depends on the person doing the flick run, if the person is doing it all over the shop its nearly impossible to tackle them but if their running straight at u u just time your tackle
