On gamecube the wak button is the "Z" Button....... BUT the Z button is at the same time the "Off the ball button".........

so when you want to walk,, you have to press the Z button,,, and when you want to use the OFB, you just need to tab it Once to activate the mode,,, and then tab it again the toogle the players.

ok thanks! if u mean a volley, u need to make a very good cross and press B just as it hits ur players chest. if timed correctly, he does a volley. Im still having trouble with the overhead kick. does anyone know how to do a through-the-legs trick? imj sure i saw a vidoe of del piero doing one (in the game)

try to not put too much power. click before the pointer reaches the end of the bar, and then click again when its in the middle of the green line. for power, put it about 2/3 of the way to the end.
I have a question now, when i click Z and R (Gamecube: offtheball and sprint) a little thing comes up in the corner, with long ball, wing etc. and sometimes when i do that the offtheball recivers change. 1. how do I change them back and 2. If i do Want to change, what do i do?

Ok it might sound funny, but I have a problem with two things:

1 If I do a header pass to another player, he doesn't move. He just stands there for no matter how long it takes. It's allright on amateur, but on Pro, the opponent player just runs by and grabs the ball. Telling the guy to move doesn't work since he's not selected most of the time. Maybe a second before he receives a ball, yea, but not untill then.

2. One touch shots? Wuts up with that? It works at about 75 degree angles, but I've seen comp take 180 turn around shots and score and my guys have to take a touch on the ball before they can shoot at that angle...

help... without that I'll never make it to world class which pisses me off since I was nasty in 2003

Before I even start, I just want to say I really do enjoy Fifa2004, I have enjoyed all before, however after 6 years, it's getting a bit monotomous.

These are my requests for the next generation of Fifa2005 (some of these have been incorparted from the board) :

-Dynamic weather should make its arrival and with it the death of Sunny Italian league games. (Snow, Rain, Clouds, Sunshine, and Fog should be incorporated).

-Balance and varied goals, we don't want to score from far away all the time.

-- The return of "revamped" creation center for CONSOLES and PC alike. Players must have accesories like in NFL and NBA. Boots, short/long sleeves, hair styles, side burns, facial hair, glasses, etc.

-The liberty to choose players for the international squads from leagues and the current default. Like '98, how about a reserve team to pick players from?

- Bring back the "Choose Captain" option... R. Carlos is not the Captain of R.Madrid, along with other huge mistakes. Let the user decide.

-World Cup

-Match selections should include things like ball selector, ref selector, weather, stadium, etc.

-More songs, and a way to skip and go forwards/backwards from a playcentre, or keyboard shortcut.

-Put in NEW animations for substitutions, 4th official with electronic number board and stuff, and also have the team medics spray the injured during the game after a foul, if the player is really injured have him taken off on a strecher. Please include some new stuff for winning a league and tournements, we spend so much time and effort and then get a 10 sec piece of cr@p. Cmon, make it worth while.

-Longer carrer mode, with options to change kit colours and kit types, build a bigger stadium and change team name and even move city, once again like NFL.

-Please make all club teams available for transfers, what's the point of having a rest of the world league if you can't buy players from these teams?

-Following gameplay features = bicycles, simple one-two, lobbing the keeper (easeir to do please).

-3D fans, make the fans genuinly real, they still look like card board

-Better goal celebrations, flairs, rockets, banners, madness, shirt throwing, kicking the corner flag, etc.

-Please include the the various licenses to make the kits genuine, Nike, Umbro, Diadora, etc.

-How about bringing back indoor soccer, or even street or beach? You could combine all this into one huge career and try dominate at everything.

-How about some African/Asian/Oceana clubs.

Please guys, Carlos it up, this game has some much potential, take it to the next level, make it really killer, something the user will want to play again and again.

Thanks

high success rate in scoring from corners

PS2 version: against the cpu


use OTB as soon as the corner is kicked, or a fraction after. trust me.

don't pick the player closest to the goal or keeper. otherwise, pick the player you want, don't press any direction and let him take his one or two steps back. then press direction, take 2-3 steps towards the side the corner is being taken. then L1(speed) run towards the target circle. then OTB; directional+circle!...high success rate if OTB engages!

How in the world do you jostle (not corners or set pieces i mean during normal possesion and defending) I just have to know.

SOMEONE please help me. how do you get free of a jostle, how do you get the ball from a jostle? (not conservative tackle)

Thanks for any help
