Good luck Ross, enjoy your nice Eurotrip 
Finally some news, this is all we’ve been asking for, we get licensing will stop you being specific but what Ross has said here is the mosf information we’ve had since the game was announced. Hoping to hear more soon (and the screenshots in the coming weeks)

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
I feel like when we eventually get some screenshots, one should just be a gripsock, no context

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.

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!

@RossSymons Hey man, is there a possibility of an early release of say an academy creation suite like back in the old days of BigAnt cricket titles?

Since every player wears grip socks. Couldn’t you just customise the teams socks to make it appear as though everyone is wearing the same grip socks?
I dare say if everyone is wearing Gripsocks, there are probably various types and we must get the customisation level spot on.
Some players do wear ones the same color as the team sock, but most grip socks are white and you see them
Nah probably about 40% of players wear them. Mostly backs, but some forwards too.
