Yes mate. For my previous experience Big Ant requested my academy data. I sent it to them as it was specific to a problem I had. They then got back to me on the issues and fixed the issue in a past patch as it was an issue affecting some users. It’s very helpful to help them understand bug issues.

It only allows you to select 30 man squads when playing with national teams?
And all champions cup games are in stade de France?
My Ireland rugby career mode
INTERNATIONAL Friendlies= Ireland v Kiribati (Dublin stadium), Zimbabwe v ireland (Stade de France) American Samoa v Ireland And sometimes Ireland play wales which is so unrealistic because they play them in the six nations or Ireland play New Zealand away which is also unrealistic because in October/November six nations teams play home games and in June/July six nations teams play 3 matches away against 1 team.

Hello Big Ant, I think being able to share kits with the community would be a great idea. We can create kits, but for those who don’t know how to do it, they can download the kit level, and not an entire team to benefit from the kit. Because some people make very nice kits.

With the patch hopefully coming out soon.

I am hoping Player names will finally be displayed in Top 14 and the Pro D2 on PS5. It’s just “lifeless” when you don’t know who is the player running the ball or scoring a Try. I been creating some Academy players for some teams in these comps over the past 3 weeks.

Also hoping for more high tackles by Ai and Yellow, Red cards to be issued by referee. Let’s see some more excitement in Rugby 25 please :folded_hands:

I’ve got the jersey but not the logo. I’ve added some players and will sit down soon and add the whole squad. I’ve made the aunz team if you want that as well.

Thanks so much Have you got the code for that jersey? Or haven’t you loaded it yet?

Hi Team



All of these need to be fixed for the next update

38 man national squads. 30 man national squads ARE NOT BIG ENOUGH SQUADS. IT SHOULD BE 40 MAN SQUADS OR LIKE WITH CLUBS 50 PLAYERS MAX 30 PLAYERS MINIMUM.
All champions cup games Venues fixed
And National teams (INTERNATIONAL FRIENDLY games need to be made more realistic and international friendly games also being played in early July

Change left footed kickers who are marked down as right footed kickers back i named all the left footed kickers in a previous post I can post them again later. AND (BEN HEALY & JAMES O’CONNOR I SAID ARE LEFT FOOTED BY ACCIDENT THERE RIGHT FOOTED SORRY)

AND FIX PLAYER POSITIONS AS MENTIONED BEFORE
E.G. SHANE DALY FB & WINGER., Give TOM AHERN AN OPTION TO PLAY AT BF AND HE IS ALREADY MARKED DOWN AS A SECOND ROW HUGO KEENAN FB JACK WILLIS N8. THAAKIR ABRAHAMS SHOULD HAVE AN OPTION TO PLAY FULL BACK AND PETER O’MAHONY IS A BF NOT A OF MORE NAMES WERE MENTIONED IN MY PREVIOUS POST.

AND FIX PLAYER RATINGS. E.G. ALEX NANKIVELL CURRENTLY 75 RATED SHOULD BE 85
TOM FARRELL CURRENTLY 80 SHOULD BE 85
CALVIN NASH CURRENTLY 82 SHOULD BE 87
JOHN HODNETT CURRENTLY 79 SHOULD BE 83
TOM AHERN CURRENTLY 80 BUT SHOULD BE 85
RONAN KELLEHER CURRENTLY 85 SHOULD BE 88
JACK BOYLE CURRENTLY 76 SHOULD BE 82
THAAKIR ABRAHAMS CURRENTLY 82 SHOULD BE 87 AND HAVE AN OPTION TO PLAY FULL BACK
OLLY CRACKNELL CURRENTLY 79 SHOULD BE 84
HANRO LEIBENBURG CURRENTLY 82 SHOULD BE 84
SOLOMONE KATA CURRENTLY 79 SHOULD BE 85
ADAM RADWAN CURRENTLY 83 SHOULD BE 86
JOSEPH WOODWARD CURRENTLY 75 SHOULD BE 82
FINLAY BEALHAM CURRENTLY 84 SHOULD BE 88
THOMAS CLARKSON CURRENTLY 81 SHOULD BE 84
DAN SHEEHAN CURRENTLY 91 SHOULD BE 93
JAMES RYAN CURRENTLY 86 SHOULD BE 88
JACK CONAN CURRENTLY 86 SHOULD BE 89
TOMMY O’BRIEN CURRENTLY 82 SHOULD BE 86
JIMMY O’BRIEN CURRENTLY 83 SHOULD BE 85

OR JUST GIVING US ACCESS TO EDIT PLAYER RATINGS LIKE IN EAFC WOULD BE REALLY GOOD IDEA

AND PLEASE PLEASE MAKE VIRGIN MEDIA PARK/STADIUM AVAILABLE IN MENS MODES PLEASE
AND MAKE THOMAND PARK/LIMRICK STADIUM SEATS RED AND ROOF WHITE OR JUST MAKE THE STADIUM LOOK MORE REALISTIC LIKE WITH THE TERRACE BEHIND BOTH GOAL POSTS AND JUST BEFORE THE STANDS ON BOTH SIDES AND MAKE THE STAND GO UP HIGHER.

MORE PLAYER FACES
NEW REFS
ADDED CHAMPIONS CUP KITS LIKE MUNSTER & LEICESTER TIGERS ARE NOT IN THE GAME BUT LEINSTER AND HARELQUINS AND MORE TEAMS CHAMPIONS CUP KITS ARE.

SHARKS ONLY 82 RATED SHOULD BE 85

National teams ratings
:ireland: IRELAND ONLY 89 RATED SHOULD BE 94 RATED
ARGENTINA :argentina: ONLY 83 RATED SHOULD BE 85 RATED

Seeing as the world cup 2023 tie in was abandonned. And we never got a RWC 2019 game, I think all ratings should be used from this week in 2019 for all ratings going forwards for no particular reason, and would be astonished if everyone wansnt in complete agreement in unison :joy::joy::joy:

How many minutes halves are most people playing on? I think this is relevant to how many tackles. I normally play 10 min halves to get somewhat realistic score lines, It would be interesting to compare to Rugby Challenge series and Rugby 22 to see miss tackles to successful tackles. Also have to see what the game is considering a miss tackle, there are some tackles I have done against the AI that deserve to be missed tackles because I had a terrible angle and momentum. It feels like if I line them up well with the shoulder strafe get good momentum I get successful tackles, I feel most of my missed tackles are coming from me mis managing the 1 on 1 when they get a line break. I just don’t know if the tackles are more successful the game would be challenging enough. I don’t now how much realty transfer over to fun game play. Overall they got a long way to go but I do think they can get a good game out of this build, the AI in there league games are normally fairly good on high levels, so I think in AI difficulty we will eventually be pretty good, so not to concerned about that, it is more so the implementation of the mechanics, the mechanics themselves for rucking , and scrums is not bad , just need better implementation.

Yes agreed, what I meant is if user success against the AI first tackle, if it was more effective the AI would really not be able do anything. Yes, agree it is to easy to fend the first tackle against the AI, I had mention this before, almost like an old school game pattern, run at an angle, fend pass fend pass all the way down the field. I don’t know if its just that I have played so much Rugby challenge series and Rugby 22 and Rugby 20 that I welcome the change in mechanics. Still hoping for the best. And yes, I am one to use offense and defense tactics, pod tactics, and set plays on the other rugby games. Even on Rugby 25 been trying to use the different formations and tactics. Even though don’t really need to to win.

Well if Toulouse and Leinster are 85 & 87 rated Then springboks should be (94 rated) they are the best team in the world they deserve to be 94 rated and Ireland & All Blacks are Even matched teams. Ireland are No doubt the best team in the six nations alongside France and England so why when I simulate the six nations 10 out of 12 times Italy Scotland or wales win the six nations
What I was trying to say in my earlier message Is the simulation needs to be more realistic. And I forgot to mention France Earlier they should also be the same rating as Ireland

Who thinks that this 3 week update will seem like 3 weeks worth of improvements, features and bug fixes and who thinks that this will offer no more than previous single week updates somehow?

Bear in mind the incredible similarities between Rugby '25 and Rugby League 26 and how we’ve all been told that there are two separate teams working on these two different games. Then factor in how busy Big Ant has likely been with the lead in to “League” over the last 3 weeks. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
