I don’t know if any of my fellow players already said but…
I would like that on every scoring could the crowd could go crazy, maybe a bit of camera shaking.
Maybe i could be tuned for different situations.
For example, a close game every one go really crazy but for a 50 nill game the crowd just claps.
Right know scoring a try feels a bit flat.
Edit: adding to that
Would be cool to have more cutscene for pre and post match.
Maybe for finals:
Locker room cam.
Walking into the tunnel entrance.
Of course recieving the cup and players celebrating.
The game has a very decent base to
Work with just a few improvements
Out half to kick off instead of full back
Option to put kicker into pocket for clearance/drop goals/ finding touch
Goal kicking animation styles of top goal kickers like Owen Farrell Jordy Barrett etc
Numerous options for penalties ( which is a major aspect in game for offside dangerous tackle killing the ball collapsing scrum etc)
One potential thing would be to check if your controller is set up for Steam Input - on some controllers if this is set to use the game’s built in controller support, it will be backwards on some controllers.
Click the little controller icon on the steam home page:
On controls, the RLL4 controls are good, and I’d like this game to reflect that - realistically the only changes would need to be to integrate rucks/set pieces etc
Firstly, I’ve read all of the comments above - I’m on the first leg of a 24-hour journey on a plane so I’ve been able to catch up! Thanks sincerely for the feedback.
@tgdaly Your comments around your kids playing is the sort of post that really drives the team, they’re working extraordinary hours ATM - this is exactly the type of boost they need.
Ok, so first of all, the dev team hate me doing this;
We will make sure there are a few controller options to choose from - from the above there is no consensus on best controls, so it seems that’s the only way we will be able to satisfy the majority of people.
@RossSymons a quick suggestion, on some of the other games i play (notably bmx streets) theres an option to play the game in ‘experimental mode’ (see screenshot attached)
This allows players to play the latest version of the game with anything the devs are working on that have yet to be patched into the game.
Not sure if its feasible for r25 but if you gave some, or all players access to this it would allow the community to fully playtest any changes that are going to be implemented and report on any unforseen issues or bugs before a patch goes live, might be unecessary but just a thought
Another bug I passed the ball into my try zone, got tackled and then gave me the drop out option instead of scrum to other team (scrum does work if I kick/pass the ball and rolls from the in goal zone to dead ball zone).
kicker chilling before the goal posts - no impact to gameplay but would be nice to tidy up same goes for ref (not sideline refs) standing in front of goal posts (5m) when taking a conversion
Not sure how much work it is technically but could button mapping be a thing? IE we could customise the controls as we want in the settings? That would satiate all players, i realise that functionality could take a lot of development time though so just s couple of different presets would be a grear alternative
Also i would like to point out that the Scrum half, or whomever plays the ball in the ruck, once takes the ball in the hands can no longer kick the ball.
When the clock turn red most Scrum halfs took the balls and, if they are far from the touch, run a bit and then kicks out the balls. Right now it’s impossible, at the least in the games i played.
Also the box kick UI is a bit glitchy, is important to see where the ball cuold land. Box kick is a crucial part of nowadays rugby.
Mauls seems to be not a thing. Maybe i didn’t find a way to initiate it. But it cannot do it. It’s important especially from the touch.
