so I'll say it again. I really don't like this game. It seems extremely unfair. The computer is capable of using all four players where I'm only permitted to use one at a time, creating a terrible disadvantage. Now, a gamer might be able to play a game like this, but the average Joe/Jane would not be able to...I being the average Jane. So, I know this is isn't the majority's opinion, but it's mine, so there it is.
It's a matter of practise. I was getting owned the first few games against the practise team too, but it's easy enough to take control of.
The computer has a few advantages. They don't generally play two players at a time, but they can switch and aim instantatiously and perfectly, and they have both an offensive and defensive default position they can send their entire team into at once while we can only hit shift to send all our players back into one starting position. (people, use this! it eases things up a
lot if you don't score on your first attempt). Their single biggest advantage is the automatic goalkeeper, but if we had one of those they'd never score a goal.
But the computer is also completely and utterly predictable. They can do one of three things at the start of the game (all of which are easily responded to), and from there on their every next move is perfectly deterministic. When they get the ball, I can tell with 90% success rate exactly where it's going to be in x seconds, and ofcourse be there myself. There are various no-fail scoring paths that'll only screw up if you do, or a faerie/mutant ball isn't playing nice.
Honestly, the game is easy. Play 3 more games and see how you're doing then, then come back to complain if it still isn't working.
Wow - I never knew that shift thing. I learned two things today that will *REALLY* improvemy game play! I forgot the other one, but I'm sure it's in the back of my mind somewhere.
pink-girl-thing, only the closest one actually chases me. The rest just run into position. It helps in that I know this, because I know who'll be where when I go somewhere. The automatic goal keeper is kind of annoying, though. Okay, okay - REALLY annoying. T_T But it does help to learn what angles work for you.
...AND to have your arrow still in the window. ^^;; I'm sick of clicking on another window by mistake, but I have been doing it a lot less now. Heh.
Playing with Darigan is slightly different - and is it just me, or have the... uh... dots represting the players gotten bigger? Thought so, it is just me. XD
Haha, yeah, I just noticed the practice rounds scores, too! Maybe we get extra points for that? Either way, I think I'll be sending scores for that now. Just in case, y'know.
ETA: And that snow ball? Terrible with darigan. x.x Well, in comparison with Terror Mountain. Anyone else find this?
