Anyone up for a ps5 clash?
Is there a group that exists on social where tournos and Matchups are organized?

So after the latest patch update last night on ps5 i was playing a match in play now mode and halfway through the 1st quarter the game decides too crash and exit on me ive already submitted a ticket with support i just want to know if anyone else is experiencing this?

After new patch on ps5, playing player career and player becomes unresponsive and will not move at all.
Also noticed thag 1 ruckman seems to continue jostling in one spot even when ball had gone down the other end.
Honestly does bigant check these patches before being released?

I played some Management mode pre and post the most recent patch (ps4). Mainly simulating the first year to play around with the draft/free agency features. Some things:

  • After the most recent patch, I get stuck at the ā€œfinalise list lodgementā€ date and unable to advance to the draft. I tried to simulate past the draft via the calendar. It skipped the draft and I ended up with my default roster for the next year despite the trades and delistings I made.

  • When the draft was working pre patch, there was a lot of generic bald guys

  • Had some issues with free agents I signed disappearing off the playing roster the next season

  • seems impossible to give out 1 year contracts to low overall players even if you offer ridiculous money. Players would rather 2 years at 140k than 1 year at 800k for example. This was on the ā€œeasiestā€ contract negotiation setting.

The positives are trading is smooth and easy. The auto generated custom fixture for the next year seems realistic and includes most staples (Anzac day game, Good Friday, ect). I hope it will be a fun mode once the kinks are ironed out, although it’s pretty hard to play now with no draft lol

Hi guys. Just one thing. I’m loving the game but for career can we just get a camera like evo 2 pro camera. I know yous aren’t wicked witch but this one doesn’t suit playing footy much. Or just add a no flip option if it’s easier for now. Many people aren’t doing career just because the camera

The slow down while.on a lead needs to be fixed also. The defender always zooms past when youre leading. Its frustrating.

Turn injuries on reduced to make it realistic. I played a 7.5 minute game and there was only one injury all game and that was the opposition.

Im finding easy too easy and medium way too hard, plus the games to quick for me. Can anyone help me out with sliders?

Hey guys. Why is Anzac logo stuck on Adelaide oval. It’s round 1 in my career and it’s there :joy:

In player career I know we have the objectives we aim to achieve such as taking a certain amount of marks.

It would be nice to get some indicators as to what the tactics of the team is during the match.

For example I’m currently playing As a defender. Is the team setting up to play locate or partial zone

Is the style wide or corridor? At least then I would have a idea beforehand as to where I should send the ball.

And if we deviate away from how the team is playing would be good to have a rating system and get punished for it or increase our rating if we stick to the script.

This is more an observation than a complaint but it kind of annoys my completionist brain that they named most of the trophies after team songs but didn’t represent all teams.
By my count Hawthorn got 2 trophies named after them, while Adelaide, Collingwood, Bulldogs, Melbourne got none.

Plenty of opportunities to change some of the others like "Mr Worldwide (Australia Only) to something like ā€œAdmiration of the nationā€, or ā€œAdvance Australia Teamā€ to ā€œSide by side we stick togetherā€.

Again, a very trivial observation and not an actual complaint, just something I thought was weird.

Every team every week has anywhere from 3-10 injuries a week so I personally like the amount of injuries there are in management mode. I just wish it wasn’t all hamstrings and that we could see every teams injury list.. @JNT_BA is that possible to add in next patch?

Mate it’s your pre season regime. Ask Korn he’ll tell you.

I’ve had acl & more severe injuries also suspensions on sim but not playing.
