Bugs and Issues Megathread

Every drop out the ai just all run forward needs to be fixed asap

Noticed a new one over the past few days. Opposition get a penalty inside your 10, your defensive line stands on the deadball line in goal, luckily they always seem to pass so you can move up in time and tackle but still looks silly.

They need to update player visuals again and Rosters its stupid and so unrealistic

A bit of a funny one..A.I were 4 points down 16-12 with 1.5 mins remaining in the match, they get a penalty right in front 10m out. What do they decide to do? well they go for the penalty kick of course and get themselves within 2 points to end the game lol …felt like a hollow victory that one

For some reason I can’t seem to be able to upload images here anymore.

I had a frustrating moment in a game this evening. I kicked the ball downfield attempting a 40/20. Despite the angle the ball was being kicked from, as soon as it bounced, it ran parrallel to the sideline towards the tryline. Okay, no problem. My fastest player was charging towards it, leading the race. By the time he would have got there, a simple pickup and score or a dive to collect the ball and slide over would have resulted in a try. However 10m from the ball, my player stopped running (despite me being in control of him), and the opposition player 10m behind him raced past, collected the ball, avoided the tackle, stepped out of two more tackles, and ran upfield to eventually be tackled on my 30m line. They scored off the next play.

What am I meant to do here? I had done everything right, and it would have been a fantastic try … but the game put my brakes on. Thankfully I still went on to win the game.

Latest update is really good, ironed out most of the issues. Please bigant don’t tweak it anymore.

Aye I’ve scored some lovely tries already with support play. And I’m not getting rattled with big hits every other tackle either.

A year or so it’s been out for and they still haven’t fixed the most basic substitution issue only subs 1 and 2 or 1 and 4 are used anyone with half a brain who plays a game can see the problem, a complete waste of time having a bench they’re obviously ignoring it on purpose or they don’t care.

Are you playing on console? and what game format? On PC the subs work perfectly, all 4 for me.

Play on the PS4, how long have you been playing it and noticed all subs are used?

I have 187hrs, and the subs have always worked for me. Can you not select some of the subs? For me you can even switch positions of the players currently on the field, not just subs. Mind you I have always done manual subs, not sure about automatic subs.

I mean the AI, it will only choose whoever is in spot 1 and 2 or spots 1 and 4 to come on. Subs 3 and sometimes sub 2 dont get selected by the AI.

ohh ok yeh I have never taken notice of what the AI have done with their team. I guess that’s still an issue they havn’t sorted.

General question here regarding the bench. I find that when one of my players gets injured, the player coming on is automatically chosen by the AI, regardless if it’s a centre, hooker, prop, whoever, that’s coming off.

Is there a way to select your own replacement for an injured player?

I only ever play against the AI, never against other users … if that helps with anyone who can answer..!

Anyone else notice now when you play the ball everyone just running everywhere and over running the ball also the plays change last minute before you pick it up from hooker so everyone is running everywhere

Yes, the AI attacks the line before the play of ball and there are some last second positional changes depending on how you are playing the ball.

@JNT_BA plewse fix asap!!

Yes, I think it should be looked into. You see your AI players running into offside positions and I have not event played the ball. They do run back, but they should at least wait until the ball has been played.

I played 2 games last night and I’m not going to lie I really enjoyed it, it feels close to a proper realistic game now well as good as it has been. I didn’t have any glitches and its so good to see players running onto the ball now. But The AI still standing around while you do a 1 on 1 tackle 10 meters from the line and the AI does the walk over try animation needs to be fixed I had 5 teammates just standing there next to me doing nothing while I did a 1v1 tackle smh

Might I suggest increasing the def ovr influence slider for online play to a 4 or 5 to help eliminate some of the cheese plays players use online.
