Any info about “drive in tackle”? How it works and what is supposed to do?
I don’t know what you mean, I see 25th
In career mode will there ever be contract offers from other clubs? Or do you have to stay at the same club until you make a new career?
@JNT_BA thanks for the increase (better) communication. Much appreciated.
One thing that spoils the fun and flow is the offensive player positioning. Something that has been mentioned many times.
Players are to deep when passing. Sometimes my wing is 5m behind my player with ball. Can this please be looked at.
Agreed, with how that is currently set up, makes it difficult to really make drastic changes. Pods, Support Runners and just general formations are one of the things I’ve been working on as well. So so much over the last few weeks, so many things to review and sit there and go… this can be way better.
There will be some updates we will put out a little later(sooner rather than later), from me, that will show what we have been working on as well as what we have planned. While I like to avoid specific dates since things can go wrong, such as the marking system, I have my timeline on when I would like to see these new things added.
Want to be careful fixing kicks JNT, if you fix kicking and name plates ill run out of stuff to complain about every week that other people arent even bothered about
Who’s to say I’m not already working on it?
Ooooo roadmap this Friday nice!!
Three weekly meaning an update every three weeks right?
Correct, for us to work on some larger updates, we sat down and decided we need more time between updates to get more substantial work done. This does not rule out updates coming in if something goes wrong or some critical errors occur that need to be addressed with a hotfix.
Ooooh damn, a lot of communication, I’m lost. Nacon freed JNT from his chains.
Gripsocks announcement incoming
More on that later, I’ve been free for a few weeks. I just needed some time to sort some things out.
Not gripsocks… the freed part XD
Makes sense. Again thanks for the reply.
GotBy
Quite happy with all of that.
We are on a substantial step forward from release.
Game now is fun, at least for me.
If only bugs, harsh animations and some gameplay elements improved the game would be great.
@JNT_BA Awesome. Great to see all the attention being paid to the game now. Someone just asked, but I am also curious as to what these new drive tackles are. I haven’t seen anything noticeable.
@JNT_BA Cheers for the explanation surrounding the bigger gaps in patch releases! i just saw it on facebook and assumed the worst
Updates changing to every three weeks. Good thing or bad thing?
Hope these bigger patches make a real improvement to the game
Only time will tell if it will be good or not, let’s hope it’s a good thing
3 weekly updates is because RL26 is in 3 weeks and then that game gets the weekly updates lol.
Anywhosies … Goal Kicking Limp Kick animation … I have only played one game so far but I think …
Now goal kicking just needs to be made harder. I am all for that AFL26 goal kicking accuracy thing on the bar as well. It looks cool and if scaled by player rating as to how fast it moved on the accuracy bit that would be a winner imo.
Difficulty still needs A LOT of work though. I know I am the All Blacks here but even when choosing the top 5 teams when playing on hardest there should be some sort of challenge. There is just no difficulty in this game still what so ever. Sliders definitely needed, like running speed and skill move effectiveness etc etc will go a loooong way to enabling players to make the game a challenge. I don’t want to be made to play as Zimbabwe any time I would like a challenging match. I want it to be realistic and for example play as England … losing every match that matters along the way
Still, only 1 game in but it was much less nonsense. Positive patch possibly.
Edit: Played a game for a challenge and there were some positives and negatives. I was behind until the 65th minute. Thanks to the goal kicking being fixed I managed to get in the lead.
Then the game took a turn for the worse. Until this point, possibly the most enjoyment I had had in a R25 game.
Next the AI did a clearance kick, I opted for a quick throw but then my guy never threw it in, instead he ran up the touchline to where Ireland had kicked it from. Then they said he ran out and the throw was given to Ireland


I guess games are won and lost on defence as they say.
… so … it is better, but the nonsense is still well and truly alive. Probably the best state it has been in so far though.
