Is anyone having issues with goal kicking in general? I feel as if I am flicking it correctly; however, 7/10 times I goal kick, my ball goes maybe 10 metres and falls so short of the posts. What am I doing wrong???
Happy to hear the news on what the future is for the game with the road map explained.
Congratulations on the promotion JntBA. I am really happy to see this change with you having more time to focus on Rugby 25 with your new appointment.
You have worked really hard to listen and understand our issues with the game and help improve it to its current state and itās in a much better state now. Thanks also to all the staff working in their various areas to support the game. I am feeling very positive for the future and more confident we are on track.
Mate 100%, I donāt know why this isnāt being addressed in patches. Iād rather be able to convert kicks than see a new sponsor on the pitch. Priorities arenāt right
No one knows.
Some people say flick the stick up, some say hold it up.
Ive tried both methods and they end up with regular kicks that dribble off the tee.
Flicking the stick up or holding it up doesnāt entirely make a difference. The important thing is to hold the stick down to build power and then IMMEDIATELY (With no stop between them) transition into the up stick movement. Do not give it any waiting between the down movement and the up one.
When I finish with the up movement, I tend to keep it up until contact is made with the boot.
Try it a few times and get back to me?
Me personally, flicking the stick up hard corrected all of the dribbling kicks. if i do not flick it up hard enough then the kicks just dribble off the tee.
I do the exact same thing than you do and I have no problems either.
Is it possible to remove Sean Holley commentary from the game� Adds nothing and says the same few lines repeatedly
this would feel like āI wanna run on the fieldā
Thank you BA for the road map really excited to see where this game goes with what is planned
Right stick kicking is pants. RS kicking will always be pants. It should be changed tbf.
Roll in the AFL style to add some difficulty I say. In saying that, since the last update my goal kicking is fixed and instead of having 4/10 per game I get 9 or 10/10 now.
But RS kicking, forever pants.
Will the āpro teamā still be added to the game as promised? @JNT_BA
Is the āstealā mechanic (btw⦠Iāve never managed a steal anything in the ruck) the equivalent tactic of ājackalā in the real game?
Likeā¦my first player to the ruck should be able to attempt to jackal or āstealā the ball from the opponents. Is the reason for me not being able to steal the ball just poor timing on my behalfā¦or, as I believe is the case, pressing the corresponding steal button just doesnāt work.
There is a positive though⦠Iāve learned how to win the ball during opposition lineouts..and,
A positive / negative⦠Iāve managed to finally win the occasional scrum (yay), but then donāt know how to move the ball on from the scrum (boo).
Play now match, Bath v La Rochelle, 7 minutes each way. PS5
-
My full back run backwards when AI box kicks towards me
-
If I intercept, itās too quick for camera to swing round; I end up grabber kicking as I press O to try and line up next tackle as thereās no pause to change direction. Same when I kick off, the camera swings 180 meaning the player Iām controlling is running in the wrong direction
-
Observation: More AI penalties on easy than medium?
-
Too big a difference in difficulty between easy and medium
-
Fly half went off injured for AI. Loosehead prop became kick off taker
Enjoyed the game, but to my taste, it had gone backwards a bit in enjoyment and nagging issues from 2 weeks ago
Still too many successful hand offs for AI
With the scrums as bad as they are now (Bad meaning you can time everything perfectly in green just as you always have before but the scrum will now always collapse.) you just need to do the first LT + RT, Then the hook with A and one shove with LT + RT again then you just hold down X (Square I think on PS) and get the 8 to pick up the ball.
I have only been able to pass out from the base of the scrum with the 9 once or twice recently after the 6 shoves.
The green timing seems to have nothing to do with things anymore. Maybe too heavily stat rated without feedback to show that is why? IDK. Scrums are pointless in this game lol.
welcome to the suck
I get like 3/4 steals per game (5min half,series s) when i press steal just before tackled player reach the ground and i have forwards around! Looks like is scripted since sometimes AI get isolated after tackle and ball carrier has no support for a second but still retain ball possesion even im first and using the same button!
The steal buttons are there to give you RSI
The good news overall is that weāre finally out of denial.
For over two years, we were being fed the classic āeverythingās fine, weāre just polishing the detailsā line
(Remember the legendary ādevelopment is going wellā⦠in July 2023?)
The bad news is that JNT doesnāt say a single word about lineouts ā neither whatās been done nor whatās planned as things stand ā and he also seems perfectly fine with mauls that offer no real control or tactical depth.
Weāll take what we can get, I guess
So i just beat japan playing as canada 21-41 (ps4 hardest and 5min halves) not much wrong if im honest! The gane felt smooth maybe some things that could be fixed. However i felt as the score margin increased the game became almost easier it was like japan werent trying as hard when i went over that 7 point margin. Still though i enjoyed playing and i think the game is becoming much better now
