Because within your rant I can’t work out if this is an exaggeration or it’s actually happening. If it’s not counted as a mark then you haven’t marked it have you

It’s paid as a mark but then called for holding the ball before even attempting to kick.
Ok now that makes more sense, once you mark it make sure you don’t kick it too quickly, let the AI stand on the mark
Same thing every game, I was gaining massive lead and the ai has just taken 3 hangers and won every clearence to get back into the game
Anyone got any idea why I keep getting a messaging saying I can’t start the game or app, it’s coming up can’t install update but when I check for an update it says its the latest version I have
If you’re holding sprint it’ll play on and most times the ai will tackle you before the “play on” notification is shown or the umpire audio plays
Honestly, it’d be cool if for Player Career Mode and like Coaches mode you could go into a menu where you can see your awards. Like your brownlows, premierships, norm smiths, All Australian’s, etc. I just feel like winning awards is a big part of someones career in real life so there really should be a spot to view it in these modes.
Yep I’m getting a lot of lag, and most of my games my players start the first 15 seconds or so unresponsive.
Game is coming along really well though. Latest patch has some great gameplay and QL features
Does anyone know how to change player ratings for management mode?
Love this, looking forward to seeing the Melton Bloods get a run around
I don’t think he’s actually making teams from the leagues, more all star teams. I could be wrong…

I’m struggling so hard to pick this game up.
Think I’m going to watch the tips video @SaintSkeeta posted (thanks for that)
Then force myself to complete every tutorial again and only play against AI for a while.
Other than struggling with contested marks and in congestion, my biggest issue is just going for a kick and it snapping it straight out of bounds, mainly from kick outs. I think holding the kick meter for too long is the issue but not sure. Nobody else i play against seems to do this .

Not a bad idea to go back to ai play and really learn all the controls. There’s a lot more depth to them than what most people give it credit for.
As for the kick out, it almost sounds like you’re holding the clearance kick modifier, exactly what you describe happens if you do that. Try to make sure you’re using X and no other kick modifiers other than manual with hud to start with and then go from there.
This game actually works best for the most part with single well timed pushes of the buttons rather than holding them down and mashing them, it took some time for me to adjust to that alone when I started playing AFL 23.
Skeeta’s videos are a great place to start

Yeah I must not realise I’m holding something down.
Thanks for the heads up, I’ll try holding just X down for shorter time and for sure the tutorials, tips videos and AI game play

Once you get used to how the controls work the game is really good, I was frustrated to begin with and was close to putting it away, glad I didn’t.

Definitely check out the new Free Roam tutorial. No opponents, so you can just pass the ball around and freely practice kicking/handballing etc.
and while in there, change some settings up, like the camera angle, the player switching option, and the kick targeting (highly recommend Manual - with HUD).
See what works best for you with no pressure.

I’m so frustrated.
YESTERDAY they literally added the Brownlow counts after each individual game, now they have just dissapeared. I had even starting creating my own Brownlow Count on Excel and was hvaing so much fun. These small things that we like definentely need to be re-added.

This is actually a very well made point!
We all need to remember the game has only been out a couple of weeks, we can’t be experts in that short space of time - there’s no fun in that

It’s still there for Player Career or Management Modes.
Go to your Settings in those modes, and switch it over.
Yeah, but I was like mid-season doing one in Season Mode, hopefully the Show Votes is added to Season Mode as well!
