How to keep the ball on top of your car?

[Mediocre!]

So I got one of those training packs that teach you how to dribble on the ground but there isn't any information about HOW to keep the ball on top of your car or how to change directions. I haven't seen any thing explaining the mechanics of it. Just vague comments like just drive around in circles in Free Play with the ball on top of your car. Says nothing about how much gas to use, how fast, how slow, when use power slide? So is there anything out there that explains this better?

It's like holding twenty boxes of pizza above your head with one arm, but with a car and ball.

Watch a video tutorial. Then practice. It feels very weird in the beginning and after while it will just click. Small movements, short burst on the throttle, try not to use boost too much.

If the ball rolls too far to the back of your car, let go of throttle. If the ball is too far to the front of your car, increase throttle.

Workshop map " Dribble Overhaul 2 ". That's how I learned. Best most beneficial workshop map for improving. VERY difficult at first, but eventually you'll find your self running it in under 15 minutes before each session to warm up.

If you're on EPIC I don't know, I've heard people say there are ways to play those maps but it's more complicated then subscribing on STEAM.

in short, the ball wants to not be on your car, thats how gravity works. so just make adjustments depending on where the ball is.

if the ball is on the left side of the car you turn left to make sure it stays on. same the other way. if its falling off the front, use boost to bring it back up. if your too fast and its going off the back then let go of gas or brake. the rest is just practicing so you get the feel of it.

and you should never need to use power slide when dribbling. only if you want to do some free styling ground plays or something. if a video told you to do that then their wrong.

changing directions is not something you really need to learn. it comes as you get more comfortable with the ball on the car. regardless, a simple dribble and flick gets the ball forward really well by itself. unless you want to become the god of ground plays then i wouldn't bother even in games. way easier to defend ground plays and less punishing, unless its 1v1.

You can't really learn these things by analysing them. You need to practice, try and fail, so that it becomes part of your intuition.

I like to picture my car as being dome shaped, don't focus on the visual look of your car it's a lie.

Use a gamepad because they have analog triggers for the gas pedal and analog turning so you can control the acceleration and turning more precisely than with a keyboard and mouse where its all or nothing.

If it's your first time dribbling, change the camera to car view (Not focused on ball),
then aim to keep your car exactly in the white circle.
You must match the speed of the ball with your car.

It takes practice but once you know how to do it, it's actually easier than it seems.

Watch a video tutorial.

It will give you the basis to start learning. If you're just messing around trying to figure it out for yourself, it's not a good use of your time when there's tutorials and tips videos out there.

watch some tutorials and then practice. a lot.

[vladimirPutinZ]

dribbling is for troons/tryhard just kick that ♥♥♥♥ off their arse and down the pitch tell them to join the 41%

Turn off ball cam.

[h a t e]

Heres what i did, and it can take 1 to 2 months to start to get it. Get the delayed flick pack, turn off ball cam, and try over and over and over again to keep the ball on your car all the way to the goal. start by focusing on staying dead center under the ball and you'll begin to understand how you should be moving. good luck and stay determined my friend!
