FREE KICKS how to score??

[Jamicque]

I've found scoreing from free kicks on pro and world class very difficult....
Can somebody tell me how to shoot to score?? (power curve place etc.)
Ps. sorry for my english....

Try to place the ball as far away from the keeper as possible. Use the wall to your advantage, and don't try to OVER CURVE the ball. Power is more important than english. And of course, get it in the green.

yes don't over curve the shot is the main thing

what do the first and second bars mean on a free kick? i think the first bar has something to do with power, without any curve i try to get it as close to the red as pos without going over, second bar doesnt seem to do anything i dont htink wtf is that green thing on it?

 

[Rochester Rhino]

the first bar is the power and depending how far away from the net you are is how far you want to let it go, and the green is accuracy of the shot.

so u want to land it in the little green part of the second bar? btw does that stop it from going over the bar if its too powerful

could you make o screenshot of a good freekick on world class... (scored one) you know, exacly show the power and curve and of course where to shoot...
i would be very pleased..

I hate it when the goalie makes a save its the same animation almost everytime. I also dont like when you get a freekick right on target the goalie just stands there like he doesnt even see the ball while it goes into the back of the net.... does anyone else see what I see?

 

[Jamicque]

sounds familiar

I did this one on my first try surprisingly...

 

[deporter316]

The red line on the right is how much power I put on the kick, and the red line on the left is where i stopped it. So it was a pretty powerful and quite accurate kick, with only a little bit of curve on it and it went in to the back of the net. But this could also be because it's against David James.

I don't know maybe we've got another versions
I admit on semi it works, but if we are talking about world class FORGET IT!
keaper will at list punch it and there would be no goal...

 

[deporter316]

Well I did this one on World Class. I can usually make them like 25% of the time if the circumstances (distance, wall, kicker, keeper) are good.

It's on Pro i think...

i tried this exact same kick, same distance, same 4 players in the wall, same angle. i did it at the exact same power and accuracy aimed in the exact same place but was on semi pro and it missed, infact i tried all different stuff as well for about 10 minutes on semi pro and couldnt even score once!!! how is that possible? (btw im using position 4 on practice)

finally got a screenshot of one, i did this exact free kick about 5 times and all of them missed on semi pro, any ideas?

First of all,
it's hard to score because you are too far.

Second, shot is should be less powerful (if you shoot from closer)

Third, you should curve ball more.

Fourth, cross should be in the corner of the net.

Sometimes I think the Freekicks are either random or the little green meter doesnt mean anything, because sometimes I'll land right on it but I will miss and then sometimes when I dont hit it I score...

Consider this, the AI is programmed so nothing is ever guaranteed. That's how it is in real soccer, no matter how well Beckham or Zidane place a free kick, it doesn't go in every single time.

Dansm: maybe the fact you had a different kicker and different keeper have something to do with it? Coz Schevschenko is a savage.

well the person who posted the screenshot said it went in on world class and i cant get a single one in on semi pro and i copied his exactly.
