Rupal Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 There doesn't appear to be a simple/intuitive way of asking one's players to favour one flank rather than the other, which could be very useful under some circumstances, for example when the opposition has a weak/inexperienced fullback or when you have a particularly good winger/midfielder/wingback yourself. I know you can shout to exploit the flanks or to clear the ball to flanks but being able to shout something like 'play down the right/left flank' would be helpful I feel. What do other people think?

Taytaz Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Go into Tactics and select team instructions then press advanced and you will see that underneath the sliders, one of the tickable options is 'focus passing' just tick this and then select the desired flank Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not want to pre-set it but if (say) your right winger is obviously playing a blinder after the game's been going a little while it would be handy to be able yell the equivalent of 'get the ball to Charlie' or whatever his name was.

Taytaz Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Hmmm actually that does sound good... but currently thats the only way to do it, possible set the desired winger as a playmakre? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnjo Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 yes you can choose to focus passing down one flank, and you can set the winger to hug the touchline also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupal Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 yes you can choose to focus passing down one flank, and you can set the winger to hug the touchline also Yep, I know you can do that through slider settings. What I was on about is the idea of a touchline shout which could do it conveniently in match rather than fiddling around in the tactics screen.

hannan300188 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I've often thought this would be a good idea to implement into the game. As mentioned I know you can set it by going into the advanced settings but that takes time and some people don't pause the game while in the middle of a match to adjust tactics Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 You could change Charlie's role to "advanced playmaker". Then they'd look to pass to him, assuming you have no other playmakers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welshace Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 your missing the point taytaz..... the point is that with the touchline instructions being implemented..... this is a great addition to that feature Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupal Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 I have never really liked leaving a match and going into other screens because I don't like the way in which you have to pause the game and so on. I know there's nothing particularly hard about doing it but, given that we have touchline shouts now, which I think are excellent and give a far more realistic feeling, I just thought that an addition along these lines might be a good idea.

jayahr Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I would have bet money on that shout to exist already... :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
