FiFa 2006: Control of the Ball - lessons in curling

[alexandermeladze]

i dont get it how to ame

[asmodeus585]

I guess it doesn't work on keyboard, lol...

[FCBAlbarran17]

Thanks dude.

[Slouchinyew]

does any1 know how to do it on pc??

[ROHANumeshVED]

Its very good but can you put a video how to curl a soccer ball in fifa 09

[XtOfje]

To my knowledge this system was only implemented in fifa 06 (by whitch you could curl the ball manually). So I'm afraid it's something that is not possible with fifa '09. I might be wrong - cuz I didn't play it (yet) - but I'm rather sure it's not possible anymore.

I thought it was a nice skill to master, but I know you can now do a "precision shot" instead. Just look deeper into it... look for what button to press to do a more "well placed shot" instead of just "power".

[tyeescrazyvids]

it is

[itstonybitch95]

does this works fro xbox 360 because i have fifa 06 road to fifa world cup.

[XtOfje]

In my knowledge this should work on other platforms too... as long as it is fifa '06

[HimataGaan]

Thanks for showing, I was curious if the game was able to do that :)

[kennyscotten]

noice

[oy]

If you want the ball to end up at 10 o'c'ock, you have to aim the ball at 12 o'clock.

Hope it makes sense.

Come check out my wicked awesome football videos if you want.

[XtOfje]

Makes absolutly sence to me. Hey, I live in Belgium [Europe] where football is born. We sure know how to curl the ball... Football basics really :-)

[1rogan1]

football was born in england

[badboikilla]

wat's the songs name?!

[XtOfje]

It's in the description:

I have added some music from Hooverphonic, a belgian group, with the song 'Visions' which was actually the theme song for Euro 2000 that took place in Belgium and The Netherlands.

Greetings,

XtOf

[scottrocksACDC]

OMG....this is video games..i want to see how to curve a frigin ball in real life

[XtOfje]

No one forces you to watch this video.

It's clearly mentioned though: Fifa 2006 !!

Or do you think they change their curling techniques each year ;-)

[logofomosho]

lol i know man hahahha but it was funny for a moment haha

[TheStute5]

ScottrocksACDC, if you want to learn how to curl a ball look at my video of me curling it through a street sign. Absolutely crazy shot that I did not so long ago...

And it was my first go, leave a comment and see what you think.

[scottrocksACDC]

[coolconor123]

[jor1ss]

[eldiablo659]

[godsmackman7]

i have fifa 08 do 1 for fifa 08

[picashoe]

ye um 1 question im tryin to do it on a psp lol and um circle is shoot ?? can u help?

[D3rFabi]

superb vid, hope this instruction also works for fifa07 and 08

[XtOfje]

this only works for "Fifa 2006", not for the versions that came after. And if it worked for the PS2, it also worked for the PC, so I guess it should work on the XBox.

As for Fifa '08... I guess it will not be implemented (too bad)

Greetz,

XtOf

[JohnAgiaParaskevi]

PES rules... FIFA sucks

[francisco2007007]

you are crazy man do yo use drugs?

[soccerpwns85]

haha

[Awarrior48]

i agree but i like fifa for its authenticity

[darito90]

thanks

[zidanezg]

and i dont have a PS2 i have an X-box

is it still the same controls

[XtOfje]

this only works for "Fifa 2006", not for the versions that came after. And if it worked for the PS2, it also worked for the PC, so I guess it should work on the XBox. Porto is the capital of Portugal (you could have googled it).

Greetz,

XtOf

[zidanezg]

all i know is that manchester is the best but they suck this EPL season

[zidanezg]

dude wat league is porto in

[zidanezg]

wat team were you playing with when u scored that goal

[XtOfje]

Porto in practice mode

[zidanezg]

yo wat r u supposed to use to curve it

the trick stick or the thumbstick that u move the player with

[XtOfje]

erm... isn't the tutorial clear on that?!! Use the Thumbstick to put curl... and watch the vid more carefully please. XtOf

[wizzard400]

this is what i've been trying to do but i don't understand how to aim ....i've never been able to get a curled shot to work perfectly

[XtOfje]

practice... I'm sure you will work things out (go to practice mode and start from there...)

[tugsnap]

hey, thanks for the help, take a look at my vid, its pretty good.

[thehero911]

yeah now im getting it

[thehero911]

how wud i do this on PC?

[XtOfje]

use the same technique... but with the directional keys. Worked for others...

[julian188180]

now i under stand thanKs

[satellite09]

i cant do it

[dookiekong007]

dude i can do make a nice smooth curl even when up closely 2 the goal line and w/o havin to circle the thumbstick tat much

[XtOfje]

Erm... did I mention this was a TUTORIAL? I made the vid so that most peeps would understand it... obviously you didn't.

And I can do easily what you describe, don't you worry... so sleep tight.

[SLOBKILLAcripFORMULA]

nice vid but is nothoing i dont knoe 4/5

[sirbizzyd2]

HOLY CRAP DUDE DONt THROUGH THOSE AMAZING CURVES AT ME! lol

[butterz2butterz2]

im sory but is lame someone has actulay taken the time to do that

[Chris155au]

Why in the hell do they not put this in the instruction manual, how do they expect people to figure it out?

[XtOfje]

You have a very good point my friend. In PES everything is explained in the manual and in the game, would be great if FiFa did the same.

Greetz,

XtOf

[Chris155au]

Okay... so how in the world did you figure it out?

[Sp33dyMik3]

in fifa 07 the ball doesnt curve that good bal on free kicks its incredible how much it bend i use roberto carlos for insince on free kick say your on the right hand side put the camera to the far post click the shoot button and imediatley after move the thumbstick to the right he will bend it and it will break about 10 feet across the net and dip

[BergaTrollet]

XtOfje:

takk as dette funker jo du er helt konge:) = thanks this actually works youre he king:)

[russianukraine]

in fifa 07 i dont even need to do a free kick or even a shot to curl

[huntelaar123456789]

how many time i have to curl the analog????

[XtOfje]

Just one time, and certainly not more. I allways do it very fast... and it curls a lot (not in Fifa '07 !!)

[huntelaar123456789]

tank now it work not like in your video but it work! Thank you!!!

[huntelaar123456789]

it dosent work !!

[jonern]

takk as dette funker jo du er helt konge:)

[thomasleblon]

thanks

hope it works

[assasination32]

öyle yönlendirmeyle falan olmaz bu işler.Gel alıveriyim hesabını :P

[XtOfje]

What on earth does this mean?

[Kozakglory2006]

Is it possible to curl on Fifa 06 PC? Pls tell me how if u know.

[zmmat]

foué

[jezstar]

safe m8! im more of a pro evo guy but whenever im playing this, this'll be all i'll use!!!

[Terry3k]

Can you make one for FIFA 07?

[XtOfje]

It doesn't work that way anymore in FiFa '07. In FiFa '07 you use a finnesse-shot in replacement (Hold the pace button while shooting).

[hferdjal]

I can't get this to work on WC 2006. I've tried for 20 minutes on practice and still no luck. =(

[Darrukin]

doood it worked man i loved it thanks man

[chrono111]

I keep trying to curl on fifa 06 but its not working, i followed the instrunction and it still doesnt work. i rlly wanna master this move so i can beat my bro

[PLO2NV]

OH AND BTW...SEXY GOAL

[XtOfje]

Tx mate, (unfortunatly) it does NOT work with FiFa '07... but it does with FiFa '06 and Fifa WC. It was a nice feature that many people didn't really know of - hence it was never mentioned in the manual (I still wonder why). All the Best, XtOf

[PLO2NV]

omggg does it work on fifa 07 too...cos if it does..HEKTIK!!!

[fisherdan32]

yep works for me on fifa 06 on PS2 never knew you could do that. thanks

[view136]

great vid

[view136]

voted awesome for the work u've done! Cheers

[XtOfje]

Thanks mate ;-)

[filipemtx]

So much unreal.

[KennYA51]

also useful with fifa 2005

[LlodioPowah]

eso son golazos??? jajajaj me rio yo de esos goles....

[XtOfje]

can someone translate that for me please?

[deathiscertain]

Golazo is like when somebody scores a good ass goal, hes saying "You call those Golazos? I laugh at those goals" I've done some amazing shots and free kicks in Fifa WC 06

[bean611]

and do you think this will work for the xbox360?

[bean611]

Is this for RTFWC or WC?

[XtOfje]

It's for both, but it was recorded in Fifa '06 but the same system goes for Fifa World Cup. I wonder if they will emplement the same system in Fifa '07.

[Mattios1]

None of them, just FIFA '06, It can't be Road To World Cup as it's done on PS2, and not the World Cup as I can recall better graphics, besides XtOfje said himself it was FIFA 06.

[xsoldi3r]

Does this work on FIFA 2005 ??

[Wyzzkyd]

possible on PC?

[XtOfje]

yes

[gman8908]

thanx this is amazing

[komun3011]

Great!!! I'll try this, and see if it works

[killa2006]

thank you this video has really helped me...now i can curll....thank you XtOfje

[santos872]

[killa2006]
