@JNT_BA elle a changé quoi la mise à jour finalement à part un peu le placement défensif ?
Base coding for this must just be a disaster, because how else can this be. I haven’t played the update, I just read these posts on here and it kills my spirit. If it’s 3 weeks for tiny “upgrades” and core mechanics are still a mess, I’d say they should abandon ship at this point. Unbelievable considering this was in the making for as many years as it was. @JNT_BA do you honestly believe there is hope to turn this into a good game? Be real.. you are in the development field, so must have an idea of whether or not this is even a workable project.
R25 is absolute panthousery.
Rll26 is a lazy reskin of rll4 that theyve recently bolted a couple of animations on too.
BAs greatest success was making rugby 25 so bad that an 8 year old rugby league game looks good in comparison

Played a few games so thought I’d share judgement, apologies if things have already been covered.
Punting and Goal kicks seem good, although I need to get better with goal kicking as I keep sending it 20m right at like 70mph. That seems about it though…
I like that you can change the kicking angle with the right stick when goal kicking. But I still don’t know what the correct power on the gauge is.
Some defensive structures for Player Controlled seem a bit questionable, when the Ai breaks through my tackles at a 97% success rate it seems my outside defence take a wide arch line to then try tackle from a different angle. The problem with that is by the time my players have travelled around the world to change their direction of running the AI have already scored or have brushed away my fullback.
Defence seems to still be very clumsy especially when the “select nearest player” button does not select the nearest player.
Attacking lines seem to be 3% more structured - however I know JNT said its still not in a completed state so I guess we will wait for the finished state.
Enhanced access to wingers - exactly what does this mean? From reading this and playing it seems to me that the only “enhanced” access i get from the wingers is that they decide to stand in at 10 at the opposite end of the pitch to their wing or just sit in a useless spot between the ruck and 10.
The referee blowing for offside when I have the ball still makes no sense and is infuriating.
Also for the contesting catch, what is the actual button to catch, as “X/ 
or A/ 
” both seem to do something but it still isn’t the clearest.
The usual “blah blahs” about rucks and scrums are still there but we know that isnt an element of main focus right now so we can only hope when the time comes they will both be fixed.
Content wise - if this Women’s world cup does get added then it will be a good thing to have in the game seeing as the mens one fell through.
I imagine kits for the New Season probably wont be an official thing as kit licenses for teams have changed - but happy to be proved wrong. If this is the case would we get the option of having the previous kits as well or would they just be removed from the game completely?
Sorry for the slight negative tone, its just a bit annoying seeing the immediate attention and the positive daily updates RL26 is getting. Daily hotfixes after semi game destroying patches month after month is a bit long but oh well 
Thanks all

Jumped on to see if the update had dropped. After reading everyone’s comments, worth me waiting another 3 weeks?

Uninstalling the game. Not sure I can take this anymore. Fees like there is something good in there but there is so much nonsense. I’m walking away. Last time I get involved in early access.
It might get be getting better but there is a long way to go before there is anything worth playing.

@Bapean is that your own created England jersey or have they put the new one in?
That’s mine, Kelvin finally prefers RL26, he changed his mind today
Alldritt the Wizard. The Square Button (P25) still works to cast a spell since EA1

@JNT_BA i think you should be honest with us. Is it even possible to improve the game with the base codes, you’d know, knowing what the state the game is in, let us rather be able to edit teams to be honest, we are really giving up on gameplay

@JNT_BA although I am greatful that we are still getting patches. And I know you mentioned it will take some time to get the game where you want it. Cant Ross just allocate more resources to the development team. What we see in these 3 week patches are so minor to what you might know that goes into them. I was looking forward to a major step up this week. (Actually since EA1) But it just feels that there isnt alot of attention going into the updates. How can Rugby League 26 get massive changes in a short period of time, and we wait 3 weeks for a new mechanic ( or reworked ) whatever you want to call it, but core basics are being ignored, why not have a team focus on all those things that we have reported and then a second team looking at reworking or coding new mechanics.
I agree with your statement, alot of hot fixes need to be done on a variety of aspects before the next 3 week patch.

Has rugby league actually had massive changes though theyve fixed some of the gamebreaking bugs whilst some remain, and added a couple of new animations by all accounts ?
Mmmmmm played update on PS5. Except for punting and new goal kicking I cannot see any difference. Waiting 3 weeks for this.. I’m
Very disappointed.

I’ve been trying to support these companies making rugby games who aren’t EA and buy them whenever they come out for years. They are always woeful, but I gain hope for the next release, same result. My mates always rip me for buying them, and I always try and defend the game, but this is just the end for me now lmao. Tired of hoping and making myself think this game is good, actually trash. Game needs about 2 years worth of updates. Bought it thinking we were getting all licensed stadiums etc, never gonna happen. Rip rugby 25, won’t buy anything from big ant again. Not really reasonable to sell a game in this state, wouldn’t have done I knew I would have to wait 24 months for it to be half playable

I might be wrong, but reading some of the comments, people talk about major changes that took place since launch on Rugby League 26. So my statement might not be valid.
I play Rugby 25 almost everyday and once you learn it, it doesn’t play that bad, the most annoying thing for me is that there are so many aspects that should be quick fixes to make it more enjoyable. One example: the “held up” over the try line, is something that should have been fixed by now. It worked in previous versions.
There are many other examples as well. I would just have liked to see some of these easy fixes be fixed with the new additions.
