AFL 26 - Megathread - This is not a support forum

Player career.

would be nice to have some sort of rating indicator to how the player is going in the match.

been playing defender with J.Henry (Gee).

10 minute qtrs and ended up with 53 disposals and got involved in a few score involvements but was absolute trash in defense. Bad positioning - getting out marked - lost my man…gave away a few 50ms for jostling off the ball just for the lols

Game should punish those who are going rogue with their duties, even if they do some good things. Or at least have the game tell us.

in the end still had a frekin blast - playing back 50 and had some damaging kicks to start the attack

Honestly need a cut scene for a set shot after the siren. watched a streamer do Gold Coast v Essendon and no sort of cut scene like they make out in the trailer. :frowning:

Even still with the Xbox version being broken played my first game on hardest lost to hawks by 6 in a thriller :upside_down_face:

Games leaps and bounds ahead of 23, just disappointing we don’t have the patch. Hopefully sooner than later but I probably won’t touch it until then unfortunately

Hopefully we get some information soon surrounding the Xbox patch. A bit disappointing.

I’m sure @JNT_BA are the rest of the staff are spending time reading the comments from everywhere and seeing streams ect, I’m sure they are working on a patch, but least it’s not chaotic as last time. Just have patience and love what we have so far :smiley:

I had a quick game earlier on a play now, and loved it so much can’t wait to start a Proteam or management mode and spending endless hours smashing out the game :slight_smile:

Love the player career mode atm, but the stamina situation is absolutely WOEFUL!

Why do I drain stamina by jogging, instead of recovering it??

I also have maxed stamina attributes and can still only run for about 2 seconds

Yeah I get what you’re saying but all it boils down to is you missing Pro Team and a couple of tactics options for a few days. It’s not like you just get the game for one day…

Are you playing on Xbox or PlayStation?

I shall ask for the third time lol. ANZAC Guernseys?

Wait, Xbox users don’t even have the option for pro team and online?

Been playing player career mode and it’s okay however, there’s already way too many similarities to AFL 23. Stamina seems to only go down for the ruckman and no one else on the ground. Then just unrealistic things. I got drafted to St Kilda and I’m currently playing in front of a full crowd against Fremantle at marvel. Also random players like Ed Richards are now on the saints when that wouldn’t happen irl. Also barely any free kicks are being called. Ngl extremely disappointed so far

idk if its just coz xbox is broken but in managment mode my players get fatigued so easily and i change training and doesnt make a difference.

Can we get the option to download full league rosters from academy in the future? Would save having to update 800 players manually for everyone if someone did it once and uploaded it

Ahhh shucks thanks for caring so much you looked up my stats :face_blowing_a_kiss:

Can you Xbox guys post a screenshot of the menu with these modes missing?

Hey so I’ve noticed some early bugs that need to be patched asap. The call for the ball in player career doesn’t work and the disposals are 100+ a game for my player and a lot of others

Submit a ticket, don’t complain here :folded_hands::folded_hands:

being on PS5, easy to record gameplay and recorded my first match on AFL 26 (Medium)

feels like Icon switching was use effectively at times in defensive situations as a means to pick a defender to drop into open space to cut off the kick, which didnt always go o plan but still a very welcomed addition to the game.

manual kick with hud is as good as ever.
