Trouble scoring

Furq · 11-06-2008, 12:57 AM

I'm playing on world class now after Pro became too easy for me, I'm now able to stop the computer from scoring much I typically hold them to 0 or 1 goals, maybe two at most.

The problem is that I'm having trouble scoring myself. I never can really get a good look, and when I do the shot is off target or the goalie gets to it. I had the same problem last year in 08

When shooting try to double & triple press the shot button. You will shot lower and harder.

I'll try that. Sometimes my shots will be too high, or wide left/right

A lot of the time even if it's a 1 on 1 the goalie will block my shot. The only time's I've scored are on penalty kicks

Funny, I started doing that and noticed my scoring problems went away heh

Shots don't sail way off target anymore, and I've been scoring more frequently

Also, if you hold L-trigger (L2 on PS3) to slow your player down prior to shooting, your accuracy will increase. Not sure if it helps even more to hold it while shooting, as I don't have the most agile fingers out there, so a L-stick+LT+shoot combo is pushing it unless I have acres of space, let alone the monstrosity that would be L-stick+LT+RB+shoot...

I'm up to WC now and I feel you. Like others have said, finesse shot works best. Also a quick sideways roll will take a lot of pace off to get more accuracy. But this game is a lot harder than 08 to not sail the ball. Barely tapping the button will be more than enough. I get so excited I really smash the button and it always sails high. Also, I don't what level of shooting you use, but on Semi in 09 you have to keep holding the stick on target to not lose the shot, I guess it's supposed to simulate follow-through.
