Gees online can be really frustrating when it glitches / rubber band’s.
Players not moving for the ball in the middle, players in space running over the ball and not picking it up, kicks going 50m backwards, the works, the oppo broke every tackle.
The person i was playing against had a GOAT team and was pretty good too which made it worse, but i couldnt do anything.
Im very thankful that 90% of my games run very ckean.
Has anyone else found online has suddenly gotten worse?
I thought it may have just been a busy night with net usage last night so i tried again today but players are just not picking up the ball, even when in space by themselves, mids aren’t really moving or attempting to get the hit outs, I have had opposition smother the ball that has gone 30m the other way, some crazy stuff.
not sure if anything has been tweaked in the background at all, but I’m struggling to kick a single goal in the last 3 games combined!
Whilst it is nice to hear what’s gone into the changes, sometimes it’s also fun to try and feel/discover what’s been done too.
The game feels even smoother to me offline now. Hard to say exactly what but the smother has helped counteract the ai and things just feel better in general
@Kidneykid95 - is there anything you’ve noticed after these last couple of updates? Obviously most of them have been for AFLW, Legends and Season 2 Pro Team
Yup it was an absolute mess last night, constantly skipping during matches. Mark the ball inside 50 then suddenly getting tackled 50m away from where I marked it.
I’ve played a couple premiership challenge games (online), and the gameplay feels much more balanced.
It felt like either the contested marking wasn’t as overpowered or it was easier to spoil the ball and bring it to ground. Also, speccies seem to have been numbed down (I thought they were broken and overpowered personally).
This should allow us to not have to use only key position players with 90+ marking and use small forwards and defenders. I feel the game is a lot smoother now and a more realistic afl experience.
This could all just be me but from the games I’ve played it feels that way.
Yeah I felt the game play difficulties may have been tweaked also, was usually winning comfortable against the AI on Hard by 50 plus. The one coach battles i played with a emerald squad i won by 3-4 goals.
Marking seemed to be still favouring me but would be interesting to know if this had been adjusted with recent update.
Running shot meter felt to be quickened up too and goal box made smaller when further out not sure though
Online is so laggy and crap atm can’t pick up the ball kicks going in the wrong direction and my 88 wetiering was losing marking contests to a 79 Sam weidemen even though I timed it perfectly
