So from my rather painful experiences of trying to get 300 in each special lane difficulty, I've noticed it's not entirely random. When loading into a game, you'll see one of three starting lanes, and 9 times out of 10, when you see how the first lane looks, you can predict exactly what the other 8 lanes will be, provided you've only hit start over and not quitted out, and have played long enough to recognize the pattern. Sometimes there's some variety in the 2nd lane, but there seems to only be a maximum of around 5 possible cycles of lanes you can get, which completely refresh if you quit out of the game, but not if you start over. With this being said, I have spent roughly 5+ hours in advanced going for perfect, since advanced has a few lanes that require spin with no way to line it up and throw it straight (like you see here). Non-max spin is incredibly inconsistent (so it would be useful to find max spin setups). However, I have managed to get a strike on all of these spin-only lanes before, with the exception of a curved lane (like you see in beginner) with a barrier placed in the middle. I have gotten around the barrier, but hitting the pocket would require a setup I have not found out yet. In this run today I got no spin-only lanes, so the pattern was incredibly lucky is what I'm trying to say.
They're tilted in such a way so that on either side, it'll move your ball left or right of where you originally aimed it, and the severity depends on how close to the middle you are (the slopes are steeper at the start), and how high up they are in elevation (as the lanes can be elevated) however if you go across the direct middle of them, your ball will go over a 'mini-bridge' in the middle and be unaffected, although these tilted floors are placed in a way that going over the middle would be unoptimal for strikes. So when doing setups, you have to figure out where to aim so that the tilted floor will put your ball where you actually want it to go. Also since the lanes have randomised patterns every setup, there are a lot more lanes involving these tilted floors that you won't see in the video.
I didn't see the one that is bowed in the middle. When there is an obstacle in the middle, it seems I cannot get around it no matter which way I start!
I always play standing up, I can play sitting down but it just sucks all the life out of the game for me. Strikes are fairly hard to come by in this game compared to the previous titles, this video took several hours worth of playtime to get down both the skill and luck needed.
I need to know how to strike with the advanced lane but that I didn't see in this video so I suppose they're different for players? Or what? Help please!
@@ShockwaveTLS Oh damn! Thanks so much for answering! Kind of you! The one I meant before is the diagonal one that doesn't move and I find it really difficult to strike...
I know as much as everyone else does, but something that wasn't really mentioned before was that Football has a practice mode, where you can go on the pitch by yourself and run around
The games cycles randomly between multiple sets of lanes, but if I do make a special lane tutorial I will have a tutorial on the curved lane for all difficulties
@@ndpsychnerd For the beginner and intermediate one, move over to the farthest right arrow, angle all the way to left as much as you can, move left so that you're over the second arrow from the left, then throw straight For the advanced one, go all the way to the left, angle all the way left, then move out until the red line starts to show a bit, then run up and fully curve left as hard as you can. (I see why a video might be better for this)
