Power bar on tackling

Ref

Club Supporter
This came to my mind after many hours with FIFA2005. The gameplay tackling gets pretty stereotype after a while.

Adding a power bar (just like the shooting bar) to the sliding tackle could be a great new feature imo! In that way, you could decide how hard the tackle would be (If the tackling goes 'red', it would mean like a good old x-tackle)
Anyways, you should be able to tackle really hard and fair at the same time - if the timing is good.

This would of course mean more tackling animations as well; variation would on this would improve the game play lots!

Any opinions on this?

i might already dribble pass you and even score when you still staring on the "power bar" for perfect tackle :D

i don't think this is necessary, current tackling system are pretty good but can be better if they make it more realistic

it think its a great idea. but their should also be a button to do a normal tackle without the bar. again....great idea.

I just wish the player with the ball would fight to control it. Right now, it's too easy for defenders to take the ball away. They should push/pull as they fight for the ball sometimes.

they should just have it Tap Tackle button for lackluster slide, hold tackle for hard tackle and bring back the intentional foul button

I dont think we need a "power bar" for the tackles, because it should really be based on your speed and the angle your tackling the player. Like bkaj21 said, it should all depend on the turbo button (on and off), then if your just sprinting or just walking then on what angle you tackle them. Now thats IMO the best way to do it, much more realistic than having a power bar.

What is that all about . all fifa games is like a salade tackle or no-tackle one touch or million touch all this non sense . All this stuff you can win with or with out it . i have a lot of friends who never heared about the SHIFT button (dribble,one touch) or even the Z button all the knew is pass shoot run threw and curve . and they are winning every tournement with no loss .
Another thing from fifa **** B.C till 2005 you can win with any formation .
So i think a tackle bar is worthless for this game . which we are still buying every year like an addiction .

Ref came up with a great idea. The more bars EA puts into the game, it will be better. Bar for tackles, shots, passes, headers, they all should be in. It will make game harder to play but also more interesting, and gameplay will be super. :) Once again, Ref, nice idea!!! Finally something EA can extually use...

VBut having a bar for everthing in my opinion will be just silly. For tackles it shouldnt be determined with a power bar like a pass or shot. A tackle like I said before should be determined with the angle, then the speed your running = tackling speed. That should determine if its a foul or just a tackle with no punishment. Now could it work, of course it could but the thing is if your going to use the power bar how soon should you start tackling? Like a meter or 2 away. I mean thats rediculous if you ask me. Having a power bar for the usual passing, shooting, long balls, lobbing, would make perfect sense. As for headers, that might be an ok situation but why stop there, they should then go all out and have bars for bicycle kicks, diving headers, etc..

Now would the game be difficult, yes because now you have to pay attention to all these power bars and yet at the same time will it be realistic ofcourse because in real life you could control the power you put into it. But then again for diving headers it should be like the tackle, determine how fast your running (with/without turbo).

Thanks Aleex, But its just my opinion and well Id rather have a game that would refelct real world thinking rather than a bar for everything we do. Now on most aspects it would work but on some it would be just silly.

Oh but of course I wont say im right but everyone has there right for there opinion. :)

No, we dont need a bar for everything!

A tackle should depend on the speed of the tackle, the direction of the tackle, the position of the tackle, the timing of the tackle..

NOT how hard you tackle! How does that matter? Does it mean if you tackle too softly, the other player wont feel it? Tackle too hard and the other guy flies into the air?

The tackling is fine... concentrate on something else.

Well... In real life, there are in fact variations on the strength of the tackles, aren't there?

Because of that, I think FIFA should have the ability to choose how hard you want to tackle.

Anyways; even if you tackle light (just a little hook), it can sometimes be a bad foul. Vice versa; a very hard tackle can of course be a fair one as well - if timed right.

ya i agree...this will be gr8. In real soccer, players get yellow cards for tackles that r not sliding. FIFA awards cards only if u made a sliding tackle at wrong time. I havent seen a card given if i tackle using the D button on the keyboard.... They shud include more jostling between the players (if possible)....then tackling will be more fun
