The moves they have now are too slow and cover very little ground. Skill stick in its current state makes everyone look like they have hands of stone, going from forehand to backhand is extremely slow. Not to mention if you do it too fast it triggers some auto dekes which is another problem in itself.
Why
Why!
Why!!!
All those moves except for that side hop are in the game as it was replaced with a move that was more reliable as a quick lateral move.
We removed the old one hand mechanic where it was just a static deke node and opted for the new one handers that could be done to either side in a more realstic way.
It was a choice to make attributes have a bigger effect on deking both in terms of quickness of hands and ability to pull off the moves.
You should bring back this skill stick because it was great and actually took time to learn and get better at it. This new version is nothing more than a dumbed down version for scrubs to use and have success with because they want everything handed to them.
Fair enough! Have to admit to giving up easily with the one touch..just couldn’t find the flow. I’ll go back again and give it a shot.
Hey, dumb question..is there anyway to do the tutorial as a righty?
It's annoying and definitely needs to be removed. Get rid of the causal friendly one touch dekes and then they can map it back to L1 + roll LS.
If you want to just go left to right or right to left, you cut through the middle in a straight line, not roll under. Rolling under towards your skates from one side to the other is a drag move. It’s ironic to say it’s for noobs when you can’t distinguish the two gestures.
Hold LB down and try the different gestures on your right stick. Different moves from
Different starting right stick locations at the point you first press LB and different moves depending on how you pull the stick over or roll it in different directions.
Think of your right stick as where you want to send the puck and your left stick your body.
No worries and will do. Going to give it a shot over tomorrow mornings coffee.
Soo this is going to take some time lol..pretty much a hot mess when it comes to getting the l1/lb press to register. I’m still pretty white knuckle though.
