Rugby 25 Megathread

40 minute halves on Pro (Rugby25 equivalent of medium). This is half time.


If it is this easy for you to make decent difficulties in all your other games, why can it not be the same for this one? If I played 40 minute halves in this game it would be hundreds to nil or like 14 max at halftime lol.

Fulltime. Real time minutes ending in real time scoreline. Amazing. When Rugby 27 using mostly league code? (You are mad if you don’t)

Also. Rugby league 26 has a drop playmaker (Down on D Pad) that actually works at any time. Could use that in this game.

I am bored of Pro Team already lol. So dumb having to use a random mix of teams kits and badges and stadiums lol.

They should let you pay like 50000 points or something to use a custom badge/kit/stadium. Who wants to spend money to be the Warriors in Pro Team when you can in Career or season? Makes no sense to me lol.

Nope, you can only use the cards you get. If you are lucky like me … you too could use the Big Ant logo as your team logo :man_facepalming:

@Valhalla_Vagabond seen today’s patch notes for RL26. Is that a fix to stop the playmaker running forward when in the pocket

2 Likes

Well in Rugby League 26, if you do not move the player before he catches the ball and then hold LR and then A to kick, he doesn’t move forward at all anyway.

This addition was so at any point in the match you can press down on the D Pad and the closest playmaker will drop back into the pocket. So you can take a drop goal etc. They move pretty quick now and into good spots. Use it a bit.

Not so much to do with the movement of the kicker, that was never a problem in RL26.


:smirking_face:
Can tell the James Lowe card is a fake … he is rated way too high. Ego 99. Skill 14.

I’m sure that as we are doomed, even the Pro Team cards for R25 won’t be as cool as RL26 ones. Like Cricket 24, the cards won’t have real photos of the players lol

Now i see why they need Freddie ! Kickers cant send it thru !

  • Referee Ross gave me a scrum after a SF forward pass :+1:
  • Referee Ross penalized me for no reason ( might be the script to give the other team momentum) :-1:
  • Support runners to deep (crazy that league is using more depth than union in real life ,but BA got it reverse) :-1:
  • why cant contact and escape moves mechanics work like in RL26 ? ( exception shoulder charge , ps: only daddy’s little boy Owen is allowed to do it,):-1:

Guys ,get a bit of confidence and please copy/paste all the good mechanics that work good in RL26 and are compatible to union and ignore people that say you are lazy developers!

Why would you change something if is not broken? If is just for cosmetics and design…screw it ! There are differences between union and league but most of the basics are the same and you almost nailed that in the other release!

Everything in Rugby25 is far worse than RL26 lol. It will never be as good.

That Finlay card is fire though (Or ginger)

This 100%. Rather have a bunch of cry baby sausages complaining about reused parts than have a pants game and them still be a crying bunch of sausages anyway :rofl:

I swear each game update the gameplay animations just gets and looks more janky almost like watching a YouTube video that buffers every second

Not entirely sure what the hotfix entailed but now getting some more competitive games vs CPU compared to just scoring for fun and not getting anything from CPU.

Missed tackles very much still an issue but am seeing more first time tackle success but still not where it probably should be, especially as CPU still have a 100% success rate when they tackle

Just another example of RL26 getting fixes and upgrades for things that are already working pretty well, while R25 users have to completely miss out or wait months for things that aren’t.

We’re constantly seeing the message from RL26 “IT CAN BE DONE!”, and then in a few days it is!

Whilst getting the message from R25, “Well this isn’t where we’d like it to be, it’s incredibly complex and if we keep working on it, we might possibly one day be able to do it. I’m not making any promises, but we are looking at it. Come back in three weeks for a relatively small patch that we told you was going to be big but isn’t and it won’t be in there either”.

@JNT_BA, as we are in the beginning of a new 3 weeks cycle… Any hint on what you guys are planning / working on for next patch gameplay wise ? Content wise, we already know for the Women RWC

If R25 had Pro Team there would be a bigger push to get things done. Money talks

That sounds like it makes sense. To have Pro Team they need to have a very functional game with all the money rolling in from people expecting that if they’re going to keep paying.

Would be great if we could get the Rugby Championship squads updated and even better if we got the actual tournament! :wink:
