Tackling, Dribbling and Passing - higher levels

[raghavradhakrishnan]

Hi, I find it impossible to finish levels 29 of both dribbling and passing (dribbling is where there are 2 defenders to handle while dribbling between cones, and passing is knocking down 30 cones in 20 or 25 seconds). Any ideas on this?

Also, Heading to knock the cones down, I have no clue how to get past this. Tackling 18 cones in 12 seconds is also as close to impossible as can be.

NEED HELP!!

Well dribbling for me is easy also set pieces, but rest of trainings, argh (maybe because of playing on keybord?) are too hard

I find tackling difficult as well; I basically had to keep doing it until I got the cones set up in nice lines so I could get 2-3 per slide.

As for heading, check out the post titled "Header Training" or something like that, in this part of the forum, I posted a long thing there on how to do it, I hope it helps!

For dribbling, try running off to the side slowly to let the players catch up with you a bit, then when they're close, maneuver a bit (sorry, I don't know exactly how to explain it) to get them behind you, and you're free. This is MUCH easier if the defenders happen to start off on the sides instead of with one or both in front of you.

Finally, for passing, that one is a bit tough, but I find it useful to generally go for the front ones; if there's any chance that ricocheting off of a front cone will knock down a back cone, aim for the front one. If that gets the back one, great, but if not go ahead and shoot for the back. You have to rely on a bit of luck, getting 2-4 cones per ball to get through it.

One way to progress in the later - more time pressured - dribbling challenges is to change the game speed to fast. The clock goes down at the same pace, but you run a LOT faster!

Okay, so it's kind of cheating, and I'd never dream of doing it that way myself... <cough>

if you cant get passed these levels wait until the end of the season and then into the new seaon it gives you a pre training boost

hopes this helps

[consonance]

But pre-season boost doesn't improve your skills.You have to pass those levels.By the way I advanced to passing level 23.But after 21 I had to slow down the game.It seems to be the only way.But after 23 even solwing the game down doesn't work either.

Slowing or speeding the game speed also affects the clock speed in the latest versions, so that won't help either.

Please don't do this to me.I have a wife(gold-digger) and children

[raghavradhakrishnan]

these are great suggestions.. and a few have worked as well!!

Actually, when sliding cones, if you slow down the game speed, it will be A LOT easier to hit the cones. The timer will be slow, your player too, but still is a very good advantage against the clock.

I find tackling training hard, when you have to tackle cones in a certain amount of time e.g. 12 sec
but shooting and set pieces easy, passing is ok.

I wish that with a high dribbling skill that you can do some nifty moves like Ronaldinho...(lol)
