AFL 23 - Megathread

Hmmmm. You know what I like. Games where things just add up and can be equal. Maybe a game where you have an equal amount of kicks and handballs. Just makes the numbers pop when they match.

The lack of comms around any gameplay developments leads me to think that the only things still being worked on are more Pro Team cards (cash grab), along with a roster update at some stage. Hopefully I’m wrong!

There is so much potential to make this an elite AFL game and with no AFL25 title coming (AFL26 maybe?) I really do hope that resources are still being invested in improving the gameplay & other modes, not only ProTeam. Fingers crossed.

If the Pro Team funds lead to

  • a 2025 roster and fixture update
  • further improvements to gameplay and modes for the next game (hopefully an AFL 26)

I’m good with that.

People have said it’s a cash grab… but at the end of the day it’s money to a company, who pay their employees to make/improve a product.
If @JNT_BA gets a bonus out of that, then I’m ok with that too. :grinning:

100%. Maybe Nacon gives BA a lot of flexibility and they just need a good net profit, but surely Ross’ life is easier and the future is brighter if AFL games are in the black.

An update for Pro Team:

Maintenance is now complete and you can now access Pro Team.

Objectives will be earned but not added to progress until 14 February 2025.

We will endeavour to have objectives resolving earlier, but be assured they will still be tracked.

For the 2025 update

There is one thing I am wishing for and that is the return of player career mode

And hopefully other amazing features/modes also :grin:

Thanks for adding a new BASE objective lads !!

The series filter appears to be broken. It stays on “ANY” no matter what I do. Happens in both the “My cards” and “Team lineups” menus.
Terrible timing with new series specific objectives just being released lol.

It’s not working for me either, guessing it’s something to do with the server maintenance

Thoughts on my team so far, just got back to playing pro team again

Hi is anyone else having this issue.
It’s now the 15th of Feb and none of the new or the old Objectives are working.
Played 4 games and should have completed about 6 objectives.
Stuck on level 35
Any idea when this is going to be fixed?

A bunch of random objectives popped after a match for me but they weren’t even the ones I was trying to complete I just got lucky. As for the ones I was actually aiming for, they did not pop, even though I definitely did complete them. A bit frustrating but hopeful it’ll be fixed soon.

Since it’s the current topic, there is one thing about the objectives that is worse than the tracking issue imo. It’s when there is a server refresh and the slow burn objectives disappear. Last season I grinded to get certain cards, got half way through the achievement (one was 800 possessions or something) and then seeya later. Objective removed.

I was ok with it being a one off, but the player archetypes under base just got wiped as well around ten days ago.

I get that there are DB or server issues behind the scenes, but if there are devs thinking no one notices or cares that is not the case.

Lucky last, the ‘wait for the server to update’ trick doesn’t appear to work for anything that expires like a weekly challenge. I’m not sure if ever did but it’s certainly the case now. It’s frustrating because slow burn objectives often have the best rewards.

Hey there,
Just one thing that I’ve noticed… the objectives don’t just ‘drop off’ as they all have an expiry date on them.

So what advice I could give is to keep an eye on those expiry dates and attack them accordingly.
If you see something has a particular time remaining on it, aim to knock those off first and then leave the ‘Unlimited’ ones for later.

I mean, I’ve had that “8 free kicks in a match” one there since forever, so it’s the last thing in my mind.

Might need to check the Steam pro team, frozen at login screen.
