It is working fine for me
@Callum_4
Maybe you can change the type of kicking in the parameters

hmmm, not sure why it flys out basically 90 degree left for me, im holding it up and seems slightly better but still 50% of kicks still go very left
Working fine here on both interfaces. In fact, so easy I never miss a kick. Thats why sliders are needed in this game to tweak this.

Fine for me as well, try only moving the thumb stick back slightly before pushing forward.
Kicking is a mess and so hard to get it right, feels so rushed. Glad you have worked it out!
The sin to win trophy appears to be bugged on ps5. Myself and couple of others having the same issue, isnât popping after trying a bunch of different methods
Having tinkered around with the update my view is there are some nice noticeable improvements including more AI attacking threat and kit becoming dirty over the course of the game. Whilst the game can be fun, on the hardest level it is still simply too easy to run up a cricket score against opposition. It just amounts to breaking the first tackle with a forward at a ruck which then allows you to offload, pass to a score.
Surely there has to be a way (at least on the hardest difficulty) of stopping or at least severely limiting the ability to just break the first tackle at will? It should require all of the userâs skill to win at this level, even if there is a strong bias towards the AI being able to break tackles, but because there is no real chance of losing, there is a lack of excitement playing the game, even though there are alot of things to like. The AI still fails to kick enough to find space.

Hello, everyone.
Another important improvement for the feeling of variety, in my opinion, would be the management of technical moves.
There isnât enough difference between excellent and average players on this point. You can only pass one opponent, regardless of the playerâs quality. Players like Tuisova or Van der Merwe should be able to smash more than one defender. (I play in hardest, maybe It is different in medium ?)
The sidesteps, even if faster, are not efficient as fend off or bumps.
Another thing : when you make a low kick, you always get tackled, which limits your chances of pursuit.
In short, I think this rework would be interesting to increase the chances of impressive tries and to reinforce the uniqueness of the players.

Hi everyone !
Iâm still struggling with the new sidesteps wich almost never works. I guess it is a timing thing ? The AI seems to understand better than me since they works against me 
@JNT_BA how many national teams have anthems in the game? Is it most of them exept Scotland, Ireland, etc?
Imagine my shock when I heard the Nigerian anthem was actually in the gameâ.(though it is the old one, we switched to a new anthem in 2024). It makes me wonder what other teams have anthems?
If you eventually get the licence to use Irelands anthem, can you please use Amhrain na fhiann and Irelands call, like in real life. I know it would make for a long intro but Iâd love it.
Also, does anyone know whatâs the best way to always keep the ball at your own ruck? Iâm having fun making some good plays but then the AI makes a turnover they have no right making

I tend to press the " hold on " button for half a second, just to allow my forwards time to arrive. But as you say, sometimes the AI just piles in regardless and rips possession.

I tend to hit the side step right after my player gets possession. Every now and then he will wiggle through or around a couple players

Quelle est la mise Ă jour dâaujourdâhui ? @JNT_BA
Thereâs a 278 mb update out what for?
Quick thoughts following last weekâs game update: I finally had time to sit down and play myself some Rugby 25. The menus do look nice as are the much needed new URC kits - thanks for that @JNT_BA.
I played myself a 6 nations with France, though I did have to manually add players into the squad as quite a few that played against Wales last week werenât in it (Ollivon for instance) and it seems like Brau-Boirie isnât in the game at all - I reckon the other countries are also missing players.
Gameplay is much better, still havenât gotten the hang of sidesteps and you can only break one tackle which is limiting. The AI on the other hand will sidestep like a mad man and unexplainably break tackle after tackle until theyâll ultimately score out of nowhere. Scrums arenât working for me though it is much better than before (inputs sometimes get recognized now which is a plus).
All in all, the game is fun now but still room for improvement of course. Hope theyâre not planning to launch a new game until this is close to what the launch product should be.
Nonetheless, thanks for the effort guys!
