AFL 23 - Megathread

New packs/missions ect as it usually is??

This patch was the usual things overall. Some updates, some art and cleanups. There were some updates to some things that we noticed after the season 5 launch, which were included in this as well. Nothing drastically game-changing, but in some cases, you may get some smoother interactions. But overall, just a standard Patch for the moment.

So after getting some data from the designers, then ā€œtech translatingā€ it, it would come down to a few things.

With each marking interaction, there are a number of skills and checks that go into what can/will happen, with always some variables that can’t be accounted for in player skills, so sometimes they can just drop the ball.

The Higher Marking skill will be a change in the overall potential score for the interaction. So a higher star rating mean a greater value for the timing input in the over all out come.

Contested Marking will make a difference to the positional value in the interaction when it comes to contested marks.

So they really would be two different applications for the skills. After looking at my overall team I have a higher marking score by a significant amount but a low amount of proficiency in contested marking, and don’t usually have any major issues. I don’t win every interaction, as of course the number will have to compare to their player, so don’t take this as THIS MEANS I CAN ALWAYS WIN A CONTEST. But its worked for my play style so far.

@JNT_BA are we going to be expecting any further gameplay improvements or just roster/team updates.

*** Here’s a summary of what everyone should already know.

  • They’ve stated many times, there will be NO further updates to Management Mode IN THIS ITERATION. Continually whining about management mode or asking for updates makes you look like a (insert a nice happy term of endearment here, see @shlev I’m a new happy chappy :grinning_face:). To spell it out even clearer - wait for the NEXT instalment of the game to recommence your complaining about that mode, just not here. (Try BF or Reddit)

  • Roster updates. They’ve tweeted back in December that there will be roster updates. I’ve even posted that exact tweet recently. When? The best answer to that is when they are ready.

  • Applying some logic here too, any MAJOR gameplay changes would come in the next iteration, further tweaks in this one would be minor in my opinion (same as any that have happened within the previous few updates)

  • JNT has stated many times, if he could say anything, he would. Do you reckon it helps your cause to continually hassle him? Any major announcements have always come through their social media channels.

I gave out hope quite a while ago that features for management mode would be fixed, like games played etc. It’s great to be back playing again, but now I’m just holding out for the Roster update. There’s nothing drawing me to ProTeam, I think I’ve played so much of these modes over the years that there’s no big payoff for me.

It still fascinates me that people aren’t understanding that whining and constantly begging for things doesn’t get them anywhere.

When will the roster update happen?

Once they’ve completed photogrammetry for all the players and gotten approval from all parties.

No further updates to management mode is a disgrace and if you dont think that then you are a fool management mode in specific is a broken mode from ruckmen winning the brownlow every season to weekly stats being wrong by the third round also it doesnt make anyone look like any form of insult you tried to imply simply by wanting a mode in the game to be fun and not broken

Awww shucks, you made another account just to post that. I really appreciate the gesture :face_blowing_a_kiss:.

It looks like you may have typed all of that out in a hurry, perhaps your keyboard is broken? :thinking:

Lol and look at that complete avoidance despite that being a fair criticism of the gane and its gamemode juyst cause you want to suck up doesnt mean everyone else should too

surley theres a way we can get a thing where you can use custom teams in manager mode, i want to do like tasmania in the afl would be fun.

What have you got against Ruckmen winning the Brownlow?!?!
Jim Stynes and Scott Wynd were deserved winners!

As was adam goodes its a great achievement for a ruckman to win it but it doesnt happen every single year in fact its quite rare unlike in game

Seeing as though you struggled to comprehend my post, I’ll try another direction with this one…

It is a DISGRACE that you need to create another account to post such drivel. It makes you look like a FOOL when you do so, especially with a BROKEN keyboard. If you are creating so many accounts here then I’d hate to see what you do on social media platforms. I bet you INSULT players and other people all the time and hide behind a wall of fake accounts.

How’s that for FAIR CRITICISM?

I know a set time cant be given, but will there be a ā€œ2025 Season Updateā€? Like i mean will there be the updated logos (Adelaide, Gold Coast, and St Kilda), the 2025 guernseys (also FINALLY adding the 2024 ANZAC and Indigenous guernseys???), will the lists be updated with photo scanned players so they actually look like they do IRL not some poor clay model made by a 10 year old lol.
