HELP ME

I'M GOING INSANE.

I distinctly remember, as a youthful youth, reading my Amiga's SWOS manual. (Not euro or 96/97). I also remember, quite distinctly, it telling me that after tapping the button to pass if I pressed up the player would run onto the ball and if I pressed down he would stop and receive, in addition to the aftertouch. Looking through all the manuals I can find online, including RevStu's funny-o-dition and even trying this in the XBLA version has resulted in FAILURE. All my little dudes stop and recieve. I'm 100% sure they could be made to run ahead onto the ball.


Did I just make this up? Have I invented a VITALLY IMPORTANT part of my childhood?!

If you put aftertouch on your passes it'll make the player run on to it.

Try pressing A to make them run onto it. Pressing A does everything else in the game, so if there's a way to do it, it'll be pressing A.

As the self proclaimed SWOS champion of the board, I can say with some degree of accuracy that I've never heard of this.

I've always thought that passing was just a matter of tapping A (or the fire button) and then the guy who's being passed to would react automatically to the situation.

Ahem. As the crowned champion I too have never heard of this. And I am a bit of a reader of manuals. Though also quite forgetful.

Ramsea's opinion now, please, for the full house.

As the inaugural champion, I agree with the self-proclaimed and current champions.

If you put aftertouch on the pass it'll swerve away from the player, forcing the player to run onto it, though.

Myp's a bit rubbish.

As someone who only just lost to the self-proclaimed champion, I concur.

Wasn't it a few weeks ago now?
