Rugby 25 Megathread

I regrettably just played half of a half .. after trying to make a custom team and using the logo creator which is now broken and glitchy?

The game looked like a PS2 game it was so jittery and played horribly. There is an absolute gulf in class and polish of this game to Big Ants other titles. Even Rugby League 26 which still needs a lot of polish.

Bruhs, you can hire me as a consultant if you want to know what real rugby is :rofl: smh.

I would welcome that @Valhalla_Vagabond if they took you on that is.

Now then I’ve finally had the ref blow his whistle and stop play in a game I’m playing right now.

Why has the non offending team been awarded a kick to touch?

Last time I knew the ref should award a scrum?

Have the rules changed and I’m unaware. Always has been a scrum as far as I’m aware. Perhaps I’m dumb.

At least the knock on part seems to be working.

@JNT_BA you just need to change the knock on penalty to a scrum going forward in your next patch. :+1:

Edit: Just had a second one. This time a knock on advantage. The team awarded the advantage didn’t gain anything from it and so the ref blew his whistle, stopped play, and brought it back for the knock on.

That part I have no issue with. Brilliant that part of the knock on seems to be working. But again the non offending team is allowed a kick to touch?

I’m still of the opinion it should be a scrum. Mind you I’ve not actually watched any Rugby in quite some time. So maybe there has been a rule change?

I hope someone can clarify this for me one way or the other. :+1:

lol at it being a free kick for a knock on. But that is a step that something is at least happening.

Yes as I say the first part where the ref blows and stops play, or allows advantage and then stops play if none is gained is progress.

But surely someone in BA knows it’s a scrum and not a kick to touch.

But yea first part great that it seems to be working. At least it’s better than play just carrying on as though nothing has happened.

Question, does anyone know what AR means in the stats screen? Like the one you check when you want to see top try scorers and stuff

Id just love to be able to ruck steal

This was something I shared with BA in terms of some of the stuff I’d like to see in terms of different pod structures. Really hope we’ll see some proper pod structures and attacking shapes in 2 weeks time

@JNT_BA you can find the full pdf here in ticket 35515 https://support.bigant.com/support/tickets/35515

Winning rucks requires a strategy to quickly put in players quickly in numbers before the Ai opposition or steal the ball using the buttons. It is not impossible in my opinion. In fact I have no issue with the ruck contests. This is playing on PS5. I don’t want to see them altered to make it easier.

Not really true the amounts of times only my players are in the ruck with no AI players in there and still no turn over, the rucks are unfortunately a huge broken mess like the rest of the game

Are you playing on hardest or medium as for medium i steal now and then. Hardest nada nothing, well maybe once that action where 1 man buldoze 4 players. Hate that needs to be tossed in the bin

The Hardest Difficulty. Sometimes with weak teams. Dragons in URC. Western Force in Super Rugby. Playing as Australia vs Lions. Custom Teams.

The ruck steal button isnt working for me

Numbers still say it all.

Is there work being done on the Rugby25 version of the logo creator? Because it is broken atm. It was better before.

Or is this just a result of some other changes somehow affecting that?

Shhh match is starting soon!
