Haha pretty much.

Overall interesting read and 99% irrelevant and off topic so it’s gone. Please dont bring in your YT/CC squabbles in here.

Maybe if you share in advance some hint about the content of next patches, we might have something to talk about related to R25. I’m sure your Patch Note was ready to go yesterday :stuck_out_tongue:
Improved Stability doesn’t count

Oh man, I was just going to add the last part. It’s never a party without more stability.

Why on earth did I just start a game…

First action:
Reception from AI
Maul
Laser pass from the AI to a guy in the back,
The guy joins the maul
Ball disappears
A new guy from the back joins the maul with the ball

Just a quick one in AI v AI I am noticing far too many interceptions and turnovers for my liking.

Yes you get them in the game from time to time. But surely not every few plays?

Also I am noticing too many times now, when there is a penalty which should result in a scrum, for some reason the game just continues as though there wasn’t a penalty? This seems to be occurring every time.

Still waiting to see a mark in AI v AI. However, I get the feeling I could be waiting a very long time. I am still waiting to see a card of any kind too. Infact there are not many penalties at all tbh.

Also is there any chance that when the clock is in the red at either half time or full time, depending on who has the lead, the ball etc that said team can get the ball into touch?

I’m seeing far too many games going way over time, such as a 60+ minute first half and well over 100 minute games.

Many thanks :+1:

Hi I was wondering why top nation teams are getting drawn to low nation teams in career in international friendlies. And there are some players i cannot pick on my Irish rugby squad during career such as Joey Carbery and Shayne Bolton. :waving_hand:

Could you guys please tweak the AI’s ability to beat the first defender every single time, or if you insist, at least make the defending team better at defending. At the moment, when AI beats the first defender, the rest of my team is standing around flabbergasted at these magnificent beasts breaking tackles.

The defender closest to the attacking player should be willing to do anything to stop the attacker. And the rest of the defence line should mark the next likely attacker, not drift the opposite way to create the gap that we now see after every second phase of attack.

Agreed. Players disposition is like a a bunch of grapes…

Seems like a fairly sensible phase of play by r25 standards ?

Man, all my literary genius wiped out in one foul sweep.

Maybe we could get that succulent patch Saulman is always mentioning so we can have something to give feedback on?

I feel like Big Ant has abandoned GripSocks.

P.S what is YT/CC?

Ah, got you … yes … I am quite influential in the social media scene. Quite a major player to be honest. Both my wife and my son follow me so I am sort of a big deal.

I apologise, I will try to not crush any budding YT/CC’s futures with my real one truths in the future.

@Rugbywolf I don’t know what it is about reading the word succulent so may times in one comment that just makes it feel … IDK ha ha ha.

But that result would be great
