I leave the forum for 2 hours and the CEO drop new information…
Come on is not fair…
Nice News Ross
What the plan about Top 14 players ?
This is all great to hear, a lot of the community feedback is just about not knowing whats going on with the game, so bits of information dropping like this are great and help keep everyone in the loop and chatting about the game. No idea what the logistical nightmare organisation with all the different nations and clubs would be. But sounds like its coming along from your recent twitter posts. Little updates like this are a fantastic way to keep everyone engaged, looking forward to more as time goes on.
Are the team capturing the stadiums as well ?
Good question about stadium because all rugby doesn’t have real stadium…boring things
There will be a little Tennis capture however this trip is 95% rugby.
It will be the longest we’ve ever been on the road for photogrammetry.
Congrats for your win ![]()
Thanks for talking to the fans Ross that is al what we as fans wanted for months
Thanks Ross! Appreciate you taking the time to come and talk to us. Hoping that we can get our hands on early access soon!
What’s your favourite Rugby game?
P.s. can’t say rugby24 (yet😜)
@RossSymons where do we stand on getting Grip Socks as an equipment option in the game?
Almost every star player wears them and is definitely necessary for player realism and immersion.
You guys have no idea how often we talk Rugby and I just chime in with “grip socks” the meme on here has infiltrated the studio. I think the Rugby team is beginning to hate me.

. Cement it in their minds
That should just be the only screenshot we get
.
And the early access is just in the character customization screen on the grip sock option.

(This is a mock-up obviously
)
Getting the telemetry for Gripsocks has no doubt added to the detail but also the delay ![]()
We’ll take it
. The devs can handle that on the side while others are traveling to clubs
I feel like there is scope for gripsocks to be a paid add-on or in-game purchase perhaps ![]()
I think it might need to be captured in the stats in-game too. I mean pack weight is important, but how many of them are wearing grip socks might also be useful to know.
Maybe a slider for grip socks!
