Thanks mate, My biggest take from it is the AI which then flows into gameplay. If the AI is as smart and reactive as we want a lot of the smaller issues (ruck taps) become irrelevant as everything starts feeling that it should act the way we want. I’ve seen a reply from Ross on X, although it was in relation to the cricket title he said their main focus was on improving the AI and gameplay, I’d love that to be filtered down to this game as the main priority 🤞 ---

I don’t mind getting tackled when kicking close to the mark… well… sorta… maybe instead it could be the AI easily smothers…but at the moment the tackle means you have to push back off the mark, like you should. With a switch to it being a smother, I’d also like to see an option to push back quickly. (I.e hold sprint without a direction?) At the moment every player takes their sweet time to push back. This, plus a quick set shot mechanic, so you can rush a bit more if you’re against the clock. ---

That’s encouraging! I just played a quick game. It’s funny, I enjoy 23 and I’ll keep playing but I can see how the strong kick to kick vibe would be deal breaker for some. I’m currently playing without vibrate and everything set to manual which I think is a more interesting challenge than trying to beat hard mode with a team of spuds. Sorry SS I don’t know how to multi quote but I think you’ve just identified a future enhancement - hold a button to back up. Perfect. And I think I know what the hidden objective could be - I was thinking that it had to be a single event - so my guess is that it’s a drawn match. ---

@dont_argue04 I agree with you, AI should smarter depending on the game situation, like if my team is dominating the on the wing, they should react and change for the next quarter, the wind when taking a set shot needs some fixing as well @JNT_BA ---

I just played out a drawn match (Tug-O-Footy coach battle), and then won in overtime, and didn’t get the objective. But it could still be branches of a drawn match (like Draw a match, and lose…. Or draw a match without scoring in the second half…) haha… not sure. ---

Bugger. I thought I had it! I guess LL would have overtime…maybe you can get a ‘real’ draw in PC? But that would be like three people. Ok just brainstorming:- - play all immortals in one team - complete all season rewards - win an LL comp - win a coach battle on Hard I don’t think it will be something completely random like hit the post three times or use some obscure mix of cards. Starting to get curious now. ---

I’m one of the few that have completed it. You could be onto something with the LL I reckon. One of the things I did was complete the Season 1 All Australians LL around the time it triggered for me. Could be worth a shot? Lots of objectives again this week - love it! ---

I completed a LL and it didn’t pop. I think it was a Season 3 LL though. Did we ever find out what last season’s Hidden Objective was?!?! I got it, but have no idea what I did to deserve it. haha ---

I wouod like to see some other players get usable cards like right now i feel like theres so many versions of 30 40 players. Like it would be nice to see a mid 90s jhf or nick blakey or phillipou. Even make the new draftees have usable cards just to create a bit more variation in the team building aspect. ---

BA only announce stuff when it’s in the can. A lot of devs do this, and given this is the only place where people are happy to move on I don’t blame BA for joining them. Also, no AFL game in history has released their season patch at the start of the year. ---

Out of curiosity, not sure if there is a 2025 update for AFL 23 or a new game for the 2025 season. ---

Is it just me, or is anyone else getting PSN restriction issues on the PS5 today when trying to log into Pro Team? ---

PlayStation Network seems to be down for maintenance (I think). [https://status.playstation.com/en-us/](https://status.playstation.com/en-us/) I knew I should’ve logged in for my daily reward this morning!!! ---

Yeah wow… just got back and reading it’s now been down for 11 hours. Sounds like a major issue. A bigger issue is us PlayStation owners losing their Daily Reward streaks… I think that resets at 9am? ---

I’ve got both but play off steam, I missed my streak last week and had to re start because I forgot about it 🤣 Did you end up hitting the Mystery pack ? Last year in October there was a 8 hour PSN outage so surely it’s back by 9am tomorrow for ya. ---

Yeah agree. I think it’s a 16 day streak at the moment which is at risk of biting the dust because of this ☹ ---

I didn’t realize it resets at 9am. I got off the game at 8am so I’ve missed today’s login and streak unless the problem is fixed before it hits 9am tomorrow 🤞 [Previous page](https://board.bigant.com/t/afl-23-megathread/22.md?page=264) [Next page](https://board.bigant.com/t/afl-23-megathread/22.md?page=266)
