I was given AFL 26 as a late birthday gift and I must say, For the most part. I’ve been really enjoying it. This is a big improvement over AFL 23 at launch and very much what I was hoping that game would be like.
Honestly, I’m just happy we’ve got a decent AFL game and honestly can’t wait to see what you guys have in store after the few bugs have been corrected.
I’ll be sending those through to the devs through tickets and hopefully they’ll be fixed very soon.
Hoping to be more active in the community now that AFL 26 is out.
Xbox hasn’t received a day one patch as of yet. The ETA for it is monday. Not much Big Ant can do unfortunately, know they’d be just as frustrated as we are
I’ve found that during Management Mode (although i am unsure if this occurs in other game modes because i am yet to play them), at random times during the match when the opposition get a free kick, the player receiving the free kick will be unable to dispose of the ball and my player is able to run in and tackle for holding the ball once “play on” is called. This also sets off a period where the opposition is completely unable to dispose of the ball and just slowly jogs down the field waiting to be tackled. The only way i’ve found to stop this once it begins is to kick a goal, which will seemingly reset the opposition’s AI to be able to dispose of the ball again.
im doing managment mode on ps5 and i am playing pre season game and essendon are just running with the ball so i keep getting free kicks now im smashing teams
yeah, that 50m bug is whack, happening in season mode too. I just gave away two in row, NPC standing there for a minute straight, I move and give away 50’s
it was kick out from a behind, standing in the goal square for almost a minute, no whistle for play on, I touch the stick and it’s an automatic 50, then the same thing happened again while running to the original 50
Overall it’s been a brilliant first day of playing for myself and the 11 year old(PS5 Digital download) only one crash during my player career.
The game play is feeling as fun as ever and I’m loving having control of the VFL and AFL in management mode.
I wish it was possible to have a 2 team management so we could play in the same career mode against each other or even co-op in management mode.
I wish suspensions were included now we can bump possibly a risk reward tackle system but considering where AFL23 got to from where it started I feel we are in a great place bring on the updates that will only make it better.
Latest patch seems to have broken the game. Or at least for the season I was in
Opposition stops moving a couple mins into the game. Happened twice in a row so wasn’t a one off
Fml it was going so well
