Hi Team,
I played two games on Hardest difficulty today. Custom Competition and Brazil Super 12
Coach Career. There is a bad bug issue seeing the Ai break my defence , run the ball into my in goal line area but then not ground the ball , just run sideways in goal and into touch. I have raised a ticket today and will provide video links for this in the ticket and time stamps in my YouTube videos. PS5. Ticket #29132. Thanks team

Please listen to your customer base. You have a lot of people here who are passionate about their Rugby Union, muse included.
The game was heading in the right direction until Thursdayās patch and Fridayās hot fix.
At the very least, next Tuesday, please revert the game back to last Tuesdays patch. That was so much better in a lot of ways.
I wonāt waste my time listing everything again as Iāve already done that previously, and there are enough posts from other people on here who agree and have shared their views on the game also.
A simple roll back of 2 patches would make a world of difference for all of us. Then just build on that going forward.
I have faith in you Big Ant I really do. But for now I am going to put a hold on my top league competitions for now.
Iāll see what the next patch on Tuesday offers and go from there. A shame as I was enjoying the game.
We know you can do it. Just look at Cricket 24, Tie Break, and AFL. Those were games with rocky starts shall we say. But eventually they became good.
I know Rugby 25 will too, just donāt lose your player base before you manage to get it playing well.
Many thanks

There might be an issue in the Career Mode for the custom players.
I tried to add some of the creations from Kapcha and some of mines.
-
I assigned NZ Team and Toulon to Nonu. He is not showing either in āAvailableā and āUnavailableā Search for Players lists. It is probably because he is more than 40 yo.
-
I can see Cooper (AUS Team) and Genia (AUS Team) in the āAvailableā player list.
-
I canāt see SBW (NZ Team), Aaron Smith (NZ Team) and Israel Dagg (NZ Team) in both āAvailableā and āUnavailableā lists
If I change SBW, Aaron Smith and Dagg from NZ team to Australian Team, I can now see them in the Career.
Does BA hate NZ ?

Thanks for the HOTFIX, but i think that unfortunately has not resolved anything perhaps broke somethingā¦
AI now stops when receives the ball and cannot alway find the right āpathwaysā to runā¦
The first problem results in AI loosing momentum and killing every chance to have a treating attack.
The second one let the game feel rediculusā¦
Ai has no āāFearāā of the touch line, so AI play there has thereās no real consequence to be tackle near thereā¦
Please work it out. Patch on Tuesday was great, i had a lotttt of fun, now on hardest i feel like playing with my little cousin that canāt find the right button to do somethingā¦
Please please.
P.S.: AI should be more aggresive on rucks, should aiming and obtein jackals more often,
They should use A more or basically alwaysā¦

Yes I seeing this with Ai getting into my goal line. They should be scoring but instead they donāt ground the ball and run into dead ball line.,

In my opinion it should be 1st high tackle should be a penalty or a yellow (red depending on severity) then a second time shoukd be a red for double yellows.

I thought Iād have another game as I canāt keep myself off the game tbh.
Currently playing my Top 14 Season Mode or Competition whatever itās called.
Anyway Lyon are currently leading Castre 21-0 with about 10 minutes to go until half time. I have my game set on Hard difficulty, 20 minute halves, and side camera. I also play all my games AI v AI.
Iāve noticed that Lyonās fly half, Paddy Jackson, looks nothing like his real life counterpart. I assume at some point you will get photogrammetry for all, if not, most teams?
Iām still experiencing the same issues but Iām hoping these get sorted on Tuesday. I am aware that Ross the Boss has spoken out regarding this after watching a short video by Consistent Walkthroughs.
Many thanks
Edit: just finished the game and it ended up with Lyon beating Castre 35-14.
It wasnāt to bad a game in the end to be fair. But like Iāve said the Thursday patch and Friday hot fix has definitely broken the game in so many ways compared to how it played before those patches.
I donāt know if you guys can, or cannot, roll it back a couple of patches next Tuesday. It would certainly make the game run smoother for me playing AI v AI. I canāt speak for everyone else though.
But I guess we will see. Iām not giving up, thereās a bloody good game here once everything is running as it should do.
Many thanks

Played one game today after yesterdayās patch.
Agree with all the above.
- AI players seem to stop running when recieving the ball, then start again
- Iāve noticed AI tries now to go for rhe sidestep almost every time. Makes it weird because it triggers that slow animation that makes everything ābumpyā.
- Plus every issue carried since release until now.
The checklist for the developers must be very clear by now. If they get down to one update a week but fix one issue at a time, we may have a functional rugby game by summer. Dont get me wrong, that would be great

Worst thing Iāve seen in this game caused by the recent patch is floating pursuit runners. They look to be running in air in slow motion. Terrible. Id be happy with what we had after Tuesday for a month of them just working and testing.
Played another test game, won it 7 - 0 , good game though. My team was better than AIās but the fend off has now been fixed
You can have a good game but you need a good team, I was playing on Easy this time
I thought Thursday update was bad for ps5 the one from yesterday is actually worst no every pass AI stops and then run, starting to believe the team is running in the same problems they probably had before EA where after every āgoodā update the game/engine just breaks and set us like 10 updates back and the process just starts again till next broken patches.
Is there a chance team can maybe test have to hold speed trigger out of the game and have players speed as stats shows, feel it was one thing I liked about Rugby 15 was there was no speed trigger and all depended on stats because atm I hit a gap with Kolbe and 1 second later guy is slow that props can tackle him

Please BA look at The scrum penalties need looking at so both sides get them not just the ai team also the kicking penalties instead of scruming every penalty and also giving a penalty for no reason
The game is basically gooched. How many post release patches have we had only for the gameplay to go backwards? It wouldnāt be so bad if playing the game was enjoyable if not accurately depicting the rules and nuances of rugby unionā¦but itās not even that. I was a sucker to buy it.
Floaty passes are also back quick qeustuon when is the top 14 teams gonna be licensed fully no player faces at montpellier clermont etc.. Also how many updates do you guys wanna bring ā¦ We paid for tge game full price I think it is time you guys deliver fully and bring major updates not just small updates but we need to start coming together and get this game finished cause honestly some days are good some days are bad and some days it just feels like I was scammed. @JNT_BA also when is the rest of the SPRINGBOK squad getting done Its been 14 updatesā¦ How many more the scrums are a bit dumb at the moment you struggle to get the ball away from behind and also lead to penalties a lot you guys have to answer you guys are just quiet when is this gonna come together come on man you guys have to give us feedback not just let us stay in the dark

Fwiw while the current patch is broken there are some better offensive possibilities happening now especially with support runners. Hopefully they can crack it. That said I really wish the backline was ya know the backline versus random players
Edit:
Actually id go one step further to say this is probably the most enjoyable the attacking side has been so far. You can score a range of tries which is nice
Hi Team,
As someone who posts videos on YouTube for Rugby Video gaming. I have not done as nearly enough videos or posted as frequently as I have wanted. I have so many ideas and plans to make for content. I am passionate about this game and to see it succeed as a fun and good quality rugby game.
I want to show and expose the game in a positive way as a rugby fan and in which it would probably help make some people decide to buy it to help support the sales of the game but it is hard to be motivated to make content or even a series on a club season or tournament with all the problems with AI unable to attack with any skill or pressure.
This is such a major issue hurting the game being exposed and frustrating the customers like myself and others on here who already bought it and been in the EA. I just hope you can get the right rugby coding to fix the Ai attack.
