Hmm. Ok.
Well, firstly I guess you’re meaning Triangle for tackle, not O? Or is that the issue?
Aside from that, from memory there is timing and direction that affects a tackle. Hold R1 (honing) should have the direction for you, so maybe just the timing of Triangle to do the tackle?!?!
There’s also times where opponent will kick it, but you’ll still tackle them, albeit late (you can see it in the replay). This can be that frustrating scenario sometimes, but is usually due to the above timing/direction being off.
I personally have gotten more into smothering (tap R1, not hold for honing). This way you position yourself, then perform the smother and have a better chance at turning it over.
It would be good if a day/night cycle was in the game and for it to a bit harder on hardest that make the game really awesome hopefully in the next update !!
We need custom sliders for difficulty and how the game plays. Other big ant games such as cricket 24 have custom sliders and it has made that game so much more enjoyable to play. It makes the gameplay smooth and more realistic I shouldn’t be beating Collingwood by 100 odd points as west coast. I just want a somewhat realistic game, where I can rebuild a team and not win the premiership in the first year. Also the ability to use/add teams to manager career almost like a 2k expansion draft. Ultimately doing this would not only mean more people playing this game the reviews and people playing would make this game elite. Also custom draft classes so we can add actual draft prospects to our league and not have 40 year old patrick dangerfield in my drafts.
Kind regards
Alex.
I must say I haven’t had too much trouble with tackling.
Make sure you’re using triangle and not circle firstly.
and the key is to make sure you have let go of sprint before tackling.
Holding sprint while trying to tackling has a much smaller window of success than if you let go of sprint. e.g sprint to the player than as you get to them, let go and hit triangle.
for set shot goal kicking, depending on distance i try and keep the first bar at the edge of the blue / heading into yellow. aim at the right goal post or a bit further if excessive wind, then on the second bar try and stop it in the centre of the blue section or left of centre.
Seems like some kind of delay where my player will just stand next to the opponent before starting the animation which allows them to get rid of the ball easier.
Ah ok… I’ve typically seen that when my press of the tackle button is a bit wrong, or I’m not pushing the correct direction of the stick at the player. In those circumstances, the tackle still plays out, but later… as they kick it (which is seen in the replay).
I’ve now moved to a couple of different options:-
Hold R1 to hone in on the player (so at least the direction should be right)
Release R2 because sprinting is known the reduce the potential window of opportunity for a good tackle
OR
move if front and tap R1 (not hold) so I can attempt a smother and potentially overturn it.
does anyone know of any creators that create retro teams? For example, 2013/14/15 Hawks or the 2009 Cats? Would love to recreate some huge games, just can’t find any on the academy.
whenever i check stats in season or mangment mode in statistics it does not show who is leading the goalkicking it just shows it in alphabetcal order and i have to wait until the end of a season to see who won the colemen.
You have to press triangle to sort by the stat you want. So move right arrow until the stat column you want is highlighted then click sort button, and walah there you have it, your goal kicking leaderboard.
