The ref indicated a yellow card for a collapsed scrum which became a red. I see three problems:

  • I didn’t have a yellow card before on this game with Flament or Alldritt or any other player
  • Why would it be Flament or Alldritt to be penalised on the scrum?
  • I still have 15 players on the field after this

It should be scrum for France. Come on the rules !

According to Glassdoor, the salary for a Beta Tester in France is around 40k€ / year

More than 1 100 hours on R25 lol
@JNT_BA, where should I send my bank account ? I guess I will only receive free hugs coupons unfortunately.

Edit: the game is probably a bit more smoother after today’s patch, but tbh, without patch note, I can’t tell.
Are scrums better / funnier? I don’t even know…

No, it’s in the rules! When France is about to score, it must be penalized! Especially against South Africa :slight_smile:

Why on earth Penaud didn’t pass the ball to Alldritt ! That would have been a try #Trauma

Cut scenes for injuries won’t drag out a game as long as you allow to press the X button (Playstation) to skip but I enjoy the cut scenes, it adds to the overall experience of the gameplay. But that’s just me.

@JNT_BA are we getting patch notes?

Yes guys
I am playing career mode and match objectives does not register after the game…
I have played 10 games and still nothing even after winning 5 matchs in a row I still did not receive my objective points…
Can you please help

It’s clear that they do not have the resources to put anywhre near 40 hours a week onto the game. The question is where do they apply the limited resources to? My view is things that people have been crying about for ages:

  1. Kicking distance
  2. Side steps
  3. AI options depending on the area of the pitch - the AI needs to understand how to play for territory, to pass the ball on a clear overlap, to try to find the ground when kicking, utilising a variety of kicks, grubbers up andunders etc…it is simply too easy to just pile the points on at the hardest difficulty.
  4. Offside rules!!

To be fair rucks have improved alot, but i fail to see the logic putting limited resources working on scrums and mauls, which may happen once a game when the above are impacting 90% of the gameplay

Perhaps they could make a poll and actually ask the users the areas that we want prioritising???

Played two matches on ps5. Turned it off.
Support lines are not improved at all. No pass fluency at all. It’s just not fun and still a broken mess.

3 weeks for a scrum fix and even that is not perfect either.

I really can’t believe this is all we got.

Agreed mate, the scrums seem harder if anything and certainly don’t feel like a three-week-long project. Disappointed so many other things were not addressed, and won’t be for at least another 3 weeks. A shame as the game is more or less playable now but still has issues that could be ironed out. And still no Women’s World Cup?

I noticed this about a week ago, clearly completing match objectives in career mode like passes or run metres, but doesn’t register as being complete (PS5)

@JNT_BA do we have any patch notes for todays update thanks :+1:

Just saw the latest video from Mad Dragon (who I think is on Xbox/PC). The L2/R2 graphic doesn’t obscure the meter in his version. Did they not spot this in play testing? Basically, PS owners have waited three weeks for something that has made the game worse.

An absolute joke, my patience has finally worn thin with Big Ant. Three weeks for this?

So you telling me in 3 weeks the patch notes will state fixed issue with scrums… ooh no @JNT_BA will we get a hotfix this week still?
