Bicycle Kick Comment

This comment has really annoyed me since its introduction but only now (cos I'm bored while waiting for a tardy gas-man) have a decided to post.

Success for this action (usually "blah closely marked" "blah tries spectacular bicycle kick") appears to be followed comments like "X is clean through" or (not seen it for a while but....)"X recovers the ball". Failure is usually a tackle or a block.

I consider the chance of someone trying a bicycle kick recovering the ball to be negligible. It would, to me. appear to make more sense if "X tries to turn his marker" or "X spins and turns" or anything similar was used.

Unfortunately, I've not captured or noted the exact text so I've paraphrased.

I'm bored and I've no real desire to suggest or demand a particular change but please change it as comment seems to have no relevance to the action or following actions ;)

Edit - PS. If a dev come up with this as a favourite comment then I's suggest reapplying it to an event that produces a shot a bit like the half-volley scenario. But it should be a rare one. That will keep them happy. ;)

One more in-game nonsense series of comments just like non favoured free kick postition for either footed FK taker or team in attack (team which is on opponents half of pitch) starts counterattack. If I met programmers I would ask them if they ever watched football match. It seems like they had read on wikipedia what is football and then tried to make football manager game.

I got the feeling in past few games they switched of the right and left side comments that were also wrong sometimes (but ofc I could just have missed it) but yes the either footed but "wrong side" one remains.

My close to 500 goal striker has failed in every single one of his 'spectacular bicycle kick' attempts, if he can't do it no-one can!!!
I also get annoyed with the 'counter-attack' comment that turns into 'runs on the side'. I don't think a goal has ever come about from that either.

12 seasons never scored with a Bicycle Kick ,never saw a goal canceled because offside :p

If you think it's weird how players can do bicycle kicks here in strange situations...have you ever played Fifa? :P Literally every defender can do this and has been able to for as long as I can remember (5 years :p)

Yeah, and there's the donkey kick too, but he doesn't get up and collect the ball from his bicycle kick.

There will never imo be a goal from a t11 bicycle kick because it seems unlikely that its ever an actual attempt on goal - I believe its an incorrectly attributed comment.

Regarding 'no goals ruled offsides" I'd say you had 3 goals ruled offside in your last match. If you don't get a comment you don't know but not being told if something happened is not the same as it not happening.

The commentary is not the game - its just a bit of descriptive fluff (with hopefully some feedback in it) for immersion purposes. They could change the commentary text "Tips it over the bar!" to "The Goalkeeper dives the wrong way and is swallowed by a Giant Pitch-worm" (which is similar to what happened when the changed all the comments) but there would still be +1 on the Saves and a CK would occur. Text change is not Event change.

My only point here is can we have a 'comment' thats more relevant to the action? Swivel or turn or flick or something similar seems more appropriate. ;)

My players only seem to use Bicycle kicks for passing :rolleyes:

Rutine finish are amound the favorite shots on my team.
kindda boring too

loooool you are so right , how the h*** can all defenders in fifa do a Bicycle Kick all the times .Also they make me mad when they shoot the ball directly from my players feet without even getting it first .

Do you play on the mobile? I find mobile comments a bit more boring than on my PC. They are certainly different. Many times when my Supporters fail to turn up to balance the massed ranks against me I've logged on both (damn cheater *blushes*) and on the PC it says "ripples the side of the net" or "hits outside of the post" or "is narrowly wide" or a few more but on mobile its a boring "wide" most of the time.

I use both. But now that you mention it, I must agree that the mobile comments are lamer. I am also still useing the old version, I don't know if that has anything to say

i have seen only 2 one goals in several ( about 100) bicycle kick. but it does exist and have a good ratio comparing to real stats LOL

One more nonsense... Why the f**k would anyone switch ball to his left foot if he is right footed!!!!???? :confused: :mad:

Thanks tongly45. I'll maybe keep an eye out now to see if there are maybe different types of bicycle kick comments (and if there are particular ones producing shots) or if I was just wrong.

it make something strange to your opponent. when you play football you will know it you don;t need to booth footed to do this.

Yeah, if you go round the GK on the left at pace, or find a tight angle on the wrong side through other means, you might be unlikely to be able to shoot with your favoured right. As well as unfavoured doesn't necessarily mean bad ;)

It is difficult to pass right using the right foot though... in that case you need make your whole body fall to get the correct trajectory for the kick...

i.e. a sideways bicycle kick:p

Neo would do great bicycle kicks. :D

today I had a go with the bicycle kick, assist but there were no (assist) on the goal, only my striker. I find it a bit wierd, it is like this comment isn't connectet to the rest of the game

Yes, the "bicycle kick" ingame comments are really lame, but I also hate it when a comment says: "The defender is having none of it and wins the ball back". Which means that I won back possession of the ball. But then the next comment SUDDENLY say "Corner to ........ the opponent". Confusing.

The bicycle kick is a passing move in this game.

James is awesome :D

"he brings the ball from his right foot to his left foot and making a bicycle kick" :)

and yes, maybe he 'll start to earning his money this year :rolleyes:

The one that annoys me is when you sub a player and the commentary is something along the lines of

"PLAYERNAME gets comes in for PLAYERNAME"

Its incorrect. It may be comes gets instead of gets comes, but the word gets really shouldn't be used.
