Just wanted to ask, when will it be possible to add and remove players from teams.
Cause I see it comes up with the notification that this certain team does not allow for the adding and removal of players?
But I’m wanting to add certain players that may have been left out of the squad and I have downloaded them from the community downloads.
Also when will we be sorting out the lineups? I see it doesn’t allows us to sort out a lineup when managing teams? Only before a match we can. This is very frustrating as we have to keep sorting out the line up before each match.

I would like, an option that would be good to add would be: select the players we want in the national selection

Unfortunately, I have not seen any response from the BigAnt team regarding this, despite numerous requests. It’s disappointing, as I believe this change could significantly enhance the game, and I would assume it’s a relatively simple fix. However, if I’m mistaken and someone has received an update from them, I’d appreciate hearing about it.
Not everything is in with regards to Player Creation yet. For example you can’t edit Womens teams until nearer the 6 Nations when they get added to the game (confirmed via tickets). Give it time.

As long as more is coming then I’m chilled
Did big ant confirm it with you or hint at it
Outright confirmed, Womens 6 Nations is on the cover of the game after all.
It would be nice if we were able to edit teams stadiums. Nearly all of the Pro D2 teams are set to Stade de France as their home ground. Kind of ruins the immersion when playing a match or a competition. I know it’s early days and am hopeful this will change somewhere down the line so we can edit teams etc.

Agreed I would second this suggestion I agree
I don’t understand why this wasn’t in the game from the start…
That would be great. I asked the same question on a stadium topic. I have made some stadiums and would be pleased to make all the proD2 to add more realism !

I guess a question I’m wondering is who would you keep or remove from the France squad, I think I counted 41 players and couldn’t really say I wanted to drop anyone
That being said we defo still need the option for not only other teams but other people might have different opinion to me

I just want the freedom to add or remove the players. The restrictions placed on licensed teams with adding and removing players has definitely removed the fun out of the game.
Everyone has different opinions and ways of wanting to manage team rosters with players for club teams or national teams. The most frustrating is seeing so many players not looking realistic at all in their appearances and we can’t change them with our own created versions.
Another Example - Namibia - PJ Van Lill - He has white skin in real life.

I’m almost certain members of the community would gladly gather the best custom players/ stadiums/ teams and share their database in order to make everyone benefit from the best experience. It is what people did for rugby 08, rugby challenge, rugby manager…
All we need is the possibility to integrate them properly in the game.

Would love to see LEGENDS added to Rugby 25 in the future & a Free Agent list aswell.
Hopefully Big Ant will give us the ability to edit teams, stadiums, etc in the not too distant future. They have done it with their other titles such as AO Tennis, Rugby Challenge, Cricket, etc.

Tbh I’m not playing the game now until this is resolved, they are obviously focusing on the gameplay atm which is fine, but then I don’t wanna start a career or competition without being able to edit squads and rosters. This will massively effect the game’s longevity if they don’t resolve it soon, and is a little bit of a waste on all the good work done on licensing and player graphics

I could’nt agree more with that. The fact that the only additable part as only a one season life span is frustrating at best. I understand the need about improving the gameplay first but having additable teams, players and competition will bring better realism coming from the community itself and will also bring a better lifespan. Creativity and imagination became the only limits just like in NBA2K you can play College Basketball or even EuroLeague because why not. You never loose the official rosters and game but you add possibilities. I would love to start a long career with Lusitanos or Black Lion (+ international manager) playing in the URC

I assume they will do this, as it was similar with cricket 24. When they got the IPL teams license with the photogrammetry players they were locked from being added to the national teams. This was sorted with a patch.
There will be updates that will make changes to certain things in the future. I don’t make promises on when. But things will change eventually for how teams work and function. We have done similar things with other titles where we allow customisation under certain conditions. Unfortunately there is not a one solution for all titles. It’s something that is adapted. How AFL, Cricket and TIEBREAK work are all different and same with 25 it needs to adapted to the game.

Will we be able to customize the gear on players for example remove headgear. Because players like Johan Goosen has headgear on but in real life he doesn’t play with it anymore and Marcel Coetzee is missing his headband. If you unlock this for us we can add and remove without you having to update it on the players
