Is there plans to add crowd chants into the game to make the atmosphere better? I know Evo 2 had actual cheesqauds in to record chants etc.
Like that one bloke at gws gamesâŚ

I appreciate that youâve at least responded to my message, but please know that most of the community at this point are beyond dissapointed with management mode and the communication surrounding it. We expect big things as we have been promised big things, but feel ignored at this point. We understand Cricket 24 will take full priority shortly, but expect a functioning worthwhile management mode to keep us entertained for the next few years until a new AFL game is released.

Oh wow, I had just finished getting all the info for the first one then you add more!! Ok, letâs see what we can answer.
So you should start a season with a minimum of 42 between your primary and category A rookie lists, but if one of them gets a long-term injury before the mid-season draft takes place theyâll get moved to the inactive list and you can make picks. So the easy answer is yes to a point below 42 is where you would see the draft options.
With the players, they should appear in the draft if theyâre delisted, you should also just be able to sign them through delisted free agency. There have been some improvements done on that particular system with the help of some of the community who sent us their saves to look at some things they were facing, which should assist with this when they get added to patches.
You shouldnât be able to breach the salary cap, you can sign as many players as you want on as much as you want initially but at the end-of-year list lodgement deadline youâll have to re-structure those contracts to fit under the cap, whether it be by adding more years to contracts or whatever. You canât just skip past it, selecting âLeave it to list Managementâ when prompted gets the AI to restructure contracts for you and will get you under the cap.
Of course, there is the option to disable the salary cap, if you activate it you can do whatever you want when it comes to player interaction with this itâs hard to give solid feedback to all the people who play due to that option when we really need to look at saves to be able to address it individually because of that choice we gave in the initial setup.

Send a support ticket with my name on it. Make sure to add your PSNID to it, Iâll start the process to get your save, and Iâll have a look at what I can see may be happening with the cap.

As mentioned a few times there are some version differences while we rebalance to take into consideration. You may not have that change yet, it should be fine on steam.

Thanks mate. All makes sense. Clearly I need to be a bit more brutal at the end of year and cull the list more 
Iâd imagine the âsign via delisted free agencyâ will be addressed in this upcoming patch in that case? I get the same as the above poster where it tries to force a trade even when theyâre not on the list.

I think it will be included in the patches upcoming. At least thatâs my understanding from what JNT says.
This would be very very useful, an inbox type thing which have been in previous games.

I found the players by going to Team Management â List Management â Search All Players â Click square for Filter â Under Free Agency, select Delisted and it shows you all delisted players. Only shows during the free agency period though
Itâs just the actual signing of the players that isnât currently working until the patch goes live. Some will appear in the draft but I had a few that didnât

Yeah thatâs the part I struggle with too - if you open the player, thereâs a âview contractâ and you can offer a contract. Iâm assuming once the functions actually working that should just add them to your list there and then
Same, here I wasnât sure if it was my PS5 account or if the PS4 and PS5 updates have not been approved yet and are still in testing?
My PS5 says the last time an update was made to the game was on the 14th of June.

When is it coming out for console? And will it include the previous features from the last patch ?

Given this one mentions âconsole version alignmentâ, Iâd say the consoles will release soon with all the features that this and the previous patches had.

Improved Team Sharing - intruiging
I dont think iâve taken a set shot in weeks, I play on PC before going into the set shot animation you just have to hold A down and they will kick a goal every time inside 50 lol thought theyâd address this on the patch. Nop.
Whatâs new here? Am I missing something? Forgive me if itâs blatantly obvious, havenât spent huge time in academy
My gut say late July the patch will be approved for consoles. Which isnât far away. But we will have to wait and see.
