Wouldn't it be cool if 'shooting' on footie games in consoles involved a bit more skill and realism?
Imagine this:
For a PS2 like controller, you could have the shooting button as 'square'. But its not that simple. You need to hold 'square' to apply the right amount of shooting power. This is seen on a little bar. Too much power and your shot will fly over/wide and too little will pose no threat.
But there are 2 more things that should be included to complete the shot system:
1. The player you are controlling has his own shooting ability stat. The higher it is, the easier it will be for you to get the power bar right. So lets say, if you were controlling Van Nistelrooy, it would be easier for you to get the right amount of power compared to if you were controlling... Marc Wilmots or something.
This is beceause the 'optimum target area' on the power bar will be larger.
2. You can also choose to attempt to aim for bottom or top corners. This is done with the L1,2 & R1,2 buttons. So, to pull of a screamer into the top left corner, all you do is hold the shoot button and at the right moment on the power bar press L1. If you dont press to aim for a corner, then the player will simply try to get thew shot on target.
