[QoL] Beach volleyball

[Hulkmaster]

love the game and difficulty so far, but beach volleyball is just frustrating

Its not about "choosing direction and hit in time" - whole battle system is about that

The problem is aiming and "finding that specific spot where "counter" counts"

Too close to the edge? miss
Too far from the edge? miss
Slightly wrong angle? miss
With keyboard controls it becomes pure torture

also gestrals which fly in the middle are barely noticable


It is not difficult
It is frustrating

It actually gets even worse — on the highest difficulty level, you can't attack fast enough to keep up with how quickly the enemies fly. This means that if you're even slightly late hitting one enemy, you have absolutely no chance of hitting the next one. But of course, you still try, and by doing so you not only miss the next enemy, but the one after that as well. It really raises the question of whether this minigame was properly tested.

I did this mini-game two days ago. Got it done in 10min or so. Your attack reaches pretty far out to send them flying back. The hardest difficulty, you can in fact send them all back. Just get into a rhythm.

I draw an imaginary line on screen, to tell me that if the ball touch the line, I do double-tap on R1.

Works well for me.

I didn’t mean to say it’s impossible — I actually managed to do it — it’s just unnecessarily hard. And yeah, once you get the rhythm down and stay in sync, it’s a lot easier. But I’m old, slow, and inaccurate XD

But you can parry & dodge in combat? How hard could it be? =D

Nah, I'm an old veteran myself (50 in the next year), I feel you.

I just skipped the last one. It's not required for the achievement and I'm not that big of a swimsuit enthusiast.

Wait, doesn't that achievement need you to win all Gestral Beach's game?

You win that game by beating the first one.

No, you need Gold for the running one.

[Ringlet]

Oh, alright. That running game was easy anyway.

Before I got the achievement I had every other game beaten and had Silver in Running and Volleyball. When I took Gold in Running I got the achievement.

Such inconsistency...

[Ingwerwolf]

What makes this hard are the retarded controls. Just let me aim with the mouse dammit.

[Zaph]

That part was annoying for sure.
