it's not so easy to pull off timed finishing unless you are using the indicator
The fact anyone can have an indicator removes the necessity of any skill, most of us aren't playing in the pro scene or streaming so people are bound to abuse the indicator.
Precision shooting is a much better mechanic as you have nothing adjusting power or accuracy for you, again there is an indicator which removes some skill, though I'm not sure it's entirely accurate based off of some shots I've had.
They will always include indicators for everything as people need to learn how to do them, it's just that some mechanics are unmanageable. I think it was TheFutAccountants stream, but the dev on there said that if they want to nerf timed finishing they have to nerf the entirety of shooting, making the general gameplay for everyone else worse. It sounds like as long as timed finishing is in the game it's a no win situation for the devs, so it makes sense to remove it.
I hardly ever use timed shooting, but I wish that instead of removing it they would have restricted it to volleys. I've never used the indicator even once, and my favorite goals I've ever scored came from long range and tight angle volleys that I managed to time perfectly. And although it was very rare, it no longer being possible to pull that off is a little disappointing. Even if I score that type of goal again, it just won't feel the same as knowing you took that extra step to convert it, not just the aim and the shot. That's just my opinion, but I understand those that want it gone.
All the best to you all!
