New Corner Kick System Feedback: Lack of Ball Drop Marker & Legacy Comparison

Feedback: Corner Kick Mechanics Overhaul, Landing Indicator, and Legacy Comparisons

Core Issues:

  • Unintuitive Trajectory: The new corner system makes predicting where the cross will drop needlessly difficult, removing precision and tactical intent from set-piece deliveries.
  • FIFA 17 Reticle Comparison: In FIFA 17, a clear landing target marker displayed exactly where the cross would arrive. Reintroducing a precise landing indicator is critical to eliminate blind guesswork.
  • FC 26 Switch Receiver Parallels: The mechanic closely mirrors the receiver-switching dynamic seen in FC 26, but the lack of trajectory clarity prevents players from accurately coordinating receiver runs with the ball's arrival.

Suggestions:

  • Visual Landing Indicator: Add an on-pitch target point showing projected ball impact based on current aim, elevation, and power.
  • Legacy Control Option: Provide a toggle in control settings enabling classic set-piece delivery for players favoring standard corner mechanics.
  • Receiver Run Synchronization: Improve responsive linking between manual runner movement and cross trajectory timing.
