AFL 23 - Megathread

Then at halftime, my daughter won a PS5. Looks like I might have to buy the game again for the console having already bought it on Steam.

That is amazing mate.
Consider it a reward for all the hard work you’ve put in by creating all those academy items.

If you can head to support.bigant.com and lodge a ticket and let them know they can look into what is happening as they will need more details than just an error screen. Make sure to always use the report problem option as this is super helpful for them.

Have new patches dropped yet?? :slight_smile:

I often kick the ball and the player decides to handball instead. I did ticket it awhile ago late May to early June. So hopefully that should be fixed in the next patch :crossed_fingers:

Please release the latest patch or patches for ps5

@JNT_BA can you please just give us some guidance as to when, if ever, management mode will be updated and enhanced. Want to know if its worth starting my main management mode now (if there are no plans to update it) or whether its worth waiting for a significant patch? Been almost 2 months from release and still no clarity as to whether there is even plans to update management mode. Would appreciate i if you could even say, ā€œno, there are no plans for updatesā€ or ā€œyes, we will give you information within x timeā€.

I’m in the same boat. I haven’t been able to start a management mode yet because I don’t want to start one and miss out on a patch that makes everything better. It happened during my season mode where I wasn’t able to use any of the indigenous jumpers as they were added to the game after I started my save file

With tackling, will there ever be a after touch system? Like when you tackle a player is there a option to pull the player backwards (example when tackling someone from behind and want to avoid falling into their back) or the ability to drive the player forward after a tackle (front on and you want to drive them into the ground). One thing I remember being discussed in another forum was that you are more likely to give a push in the back if you are sprinting while tackling. Would be nice to have some sort of mechanic to combat this if the player is skilled enough

We will remove the need to be on the internet, at the moment we want to make sure all users are on current patches, of course that was more of an issue when they were daily.

With all of your hard work in the Academy, I can’t think of a better family to win it!

Check your message for a PlayStation5 code from me :slight_smile:

Thank you so very much Ross. Very much appreciated. I’m just glad I can share my creations with other players.

How good is that. They should give you the game for free! I doubt there’s anyone that’s put as much into the game as you have.

Edit: looks like Ross the boss did in fact do just that. Nice work :+1:t4:

Just a bit of Help Please, Noticed you can Evade with the Right Stick , how does that work sorry im a newbie this game, any tips much apprciated

There are a few issues I do have with the game mechanics but I no longer worry about reporting the issues because I have had a bad experience with other games and their devs just ignoring the issues and feedback

It’s all about timing really.
Just need to flick the right stick to either the left or right just as a player approaches and you’ll see your player either give a shimmy or a spin which will make your opponent lose momentum.

If your player has the ball and is in close proximity to a opposing player, there are a few options you can take:

Get a quick kick or handball out, I find doing a clearance kick/handball (l2 + kick or handball) works the best
Or
You can try to evade your opponent by flicking your right stick left or right. But if ya get caught in a tackle, you are going to more likely get pinned for htb.

One final thing that most people overlook is to flick your right stick up/forward if you feel like your player is going to get tackled - that will free up your arms and you have a better chance of getting a handball away, although with little or no accuracy.
