Potential

[mindlesspain]

In your skills, there's something that says potential...
Is that the max skill level you can reach on everything? And..it keeps going down every so often
=o

Your potential starts high and decreases as you get older. When your potential is high it is easier to build your abilities. This means when you get old you will find it more difficult to keep your stats high.

Ah...ok, so does this mean that a player migh thave a potential of 77 in something, but that skill can still be trained higher? Or is it just gonna drop back down to 77 after every match...?

So, potential decreases from 15 to...17...18? And then it goes back up?

Very interesting.

Potential doesn't limit your maximum skill, it just determines how much your skill increases by when you perform a pass or shot or whatever during a match. Low potential means you get a smaller skill increase.

Ahhhh, I see. Since we're speaking of training, kind of..
how do you train ball control...it's in match only?? And flair...and game vision..
lol

Vision Thru long passes; control by receiving the ball standing still; and flair thru curling the shot pass, lob.

I'd like to see the vision increase be directly related to the capability of the player so if you can only pass 5 yards because of poor vision, a 10 yard pass would give you an increase, because as an attacker I never get to pass more than 20 yards. Control could also tot up a bit with a good one touch pass. Already know how to get a bit of whip on the ball so my flair is soaring!!
