AFL 23 - Megathread

Thursday will always be the day for the changeover of things. Be that weekly rewards or Seasons.

Same point still stands. You want to be gifted those cards so you can chase those objectives/packs.

@Ku33ie won’t any potential rewards need to be claimed by you regardless of whether you log in or not? Trying to think of ones that would automatically be applied :thinking:

Yes, but seeing as there is an abundance of XP rewards that I am expecting would come in and I am at level 40 with this season, I don’t want them to come through now and not go towards anything.

Now I could be one of the unlucky ones who’s rewards that weren’t tracking are yet to come through, but I don’t want to run the risk.

I do love the grind. It’s a form of addiction :heart_eyes:
I’ve been able to develop quite a successful team without spending a single dollar so far, so want to make sure my efforts don’t go to waste by not getting the most out of my XP rewards

Just to clarify my point, when XP or packs are awarded, remember you have to go in and click claim for them to actually be credited to you. All I’m saying is it could be fine for you to log in, let them come through and leave them unclaimed. (I have a bunch of unlimited time ones sitting waiting to claim when the new season starts)

You can even leave card packs unopened in the store as well if you wish.

You also may have some rewards that come through that have a time element to them, ie they might be about to expire. Therefore once the new season starts they won’t come through anyway as they are expired. If any of these are card packs then you potentially lose these.

Hopefully that’s a bit clearer

I agree with the issue of people wanting a card NOW, for the objectives… although wish the specific-card based objectives were all unlimited… so people might get those cards in the future and tick them off.

I.e I’ll never get the Legends Season 2 objectives, because I don’t have those cards at the moment, but hope I pull them in the future and could still get them, maybe in Season 3 or 4.

It is clearer. Thanks!

You sir, are the reason I won’t be spending time with my family tonight :rofl:

Hahahaha, glad to be of service!

Just don’t do what I did and click the wrong button to claim one of them instead of going back a screen…

Just to be clear, I am not asking to be ‘gifted packs’.

All loot box style mechanics i have experienced till now have never hid objectives behind random chance. In games that do have this element, you either get the thing you need through earning another achievement or it becomes easy to farm through some part of the game you have unlocked.

If giving the player the option to earn a specific card is seen as a form of instant gratification, what does that say about all the achievements you already have the cards for?

Another question is how many other games already do this. If it’s widespread and everyone just accepts it then I guess that changes things. To me personally, I think it’s silly.

Well, my card-specific-objective complaints were heard… I pulled Gawn, Cameron and Nick Daicos in a single pack last night.

Although their objectives are all unlimited time anyway… but still, I have a few more things to target in the remaining Season 2 days.

Anyone else stuck with locked objectives in “long term goals”?

Yep.
But can I ask… are you already at level 40 for season 2?

Because I have a stage feeling that this is why it’s not opening for me.
Like it needs to register the previous reward before moving forward.

Changed internet providers yesterday, gone from 25 mbps and 30 odd ping to 730 mbps currently and 9 ping.

Can’t wait to play online next season haha

I am level 40 but i already claimed the reward for the raining goals objective

I’m not Level 40, but it’s stuck for me.
Although, it’s stuck at the one above @Dave3’s one.
Get It Out Of There was previously stuck at 0…
But with the new updates to objectives, it popped… yet the next one (Raining Goals) is still locked for me.

I know that concentration is mainly on Pro Team for the time being, but if any future titles of AFL are released by you guys could you pretty pretty please try and carry over community shared teams, stadiums, logos etc? Me and a mate are currently in the process of completing 38 custom teams with all custom players and would die for an option to carry it over to a new game in the future!
Same with Chuckinho’s work making local clubs, would hate to see all of the work that he has done go to waste in a new game.

It is something we did with both Cricket 24 and even with TIEBREAK. We made sure that the databases were compatible. It really comes down to how much is updated between the systems and games. There were some issues with Cricket as we did change how the bats work in terms of decals which then took a high number of hours to get sorted. Same with TIEBREAK, we spent a long time making sure the old stadiums were compatible.

But if we do a future title I’ll do my best to make sure it’s all carried across in the Cricket way with a clone database or pure compatibility.

Cheers mate.
I am stuck on the same one as you, but thought it was because my XP couldn’t go anywhere.

Ahh well, I’ll just wait and see what happens in the coming weeks.

Looks like we’re in blackout mode until the new season starts. LL,PC & CB menus greyed out and can’t access as well as Objectives and Level progression

Looking into it now with the server team.
