no info on that yet. keep checking X for updates
Does anyone else give away a ridiculous amount of high tackles every game? Every game my team commits 3+ high tackles resulting in having so many suspended players.. yet the opposition it feels like doesnāt really commit foul play, very frustrating.

yeah you must be flicking your right stick upwards that simulates a higher tackle which leads to high tackles. i just click mins in for a bit hit so i dont give away high tackles

What is your team ? Have you looked at the individual player discipline stats ? You can edit the stats if you want to give them a higher discipline rating.
Iāve tried just tackling them normally without the right stick and the issue still exists, might be a Warriors players discipline stat problem maybe 
Suggestion what I have always wanted as a feature is in career mode to be able to see past premiership ladders from played seasons in that career or even just a premiership tracker or something not sure if this has been implemented already I just havenāt come across it.

Want to Raise a couple of points.
- How has a game this buggy and archaic been released at all, let alone for $100. I understand weāre not going to get the level of a AAA title like Fifa or Madden, but to not have made any real progress since the last game 8 years ago is a joke. Bare in mind that Fifa and Madden base game are also $100ā¦
- With regards to gameplay;
- thereās no structure in the way the halves play, especially at the end of the sets, more often than not I end up passing to a lock or a forward to make a kick which makes no sense and seems super obvious.
- Hooker seems to never be close to the tackle and thereās zero momentum so if you break the line, inevitably the defensive line is always given time to reset because it takes 10 minutes for the hooker or any player to get close to passing, after the tackled player takes another 10 minutes to actually get up and play the ball.
- The set play system is non existent and results in knock ons left right and centre.
- Kicking is also very flawed, and it seems you either have forever or zero time to kick, this again is down to the positioning of the halves at the end of the sets.
- The biggest issue in career mode and any game playing the AI, the difficulty sliders are completely proken in Rookie, I can win 50-0 and its boring, theres no tackling opposition is useless, I turn the difficult up to amateur up 1 level, and itās impossible for myself or the opposition to score. Iād hate to think what the other difficulty levels look like.
- Overall this has been a massive dissapointment for what I know was hyped up heaps in the Rugby League Community. Big Ant need to make some serious improvements and quickly, or offer people their money back. Its not on.

Bigant yāall dropped the ball. The game is not good. I can appreciate that some time and effort went into this, however its so clearly not in your lane and never has been. It genuinely feels like an early 2000ās game with a nice framerate, and āslightlyā less jank.

And unfortunately absolutely no original ideas with this entry as well.
Something like a momentum metre that boosts your stamina after a line break could have worked well.

when youāre creating a jersey shorts socks etc. you canāt see the socks without exiting back to the full view. It doesnāt pan down to the socks when youāre editing them.
There needs to be more tutorials on how to do stuff for people who havenāt played the last RL game.

Is there a single positive change to the gameplay over RLL4? Is there anything that is new or different in terms of the gameplay, outside of the one new try scoring animation? Struggling to find anything.
Graphics have obviously āchangedā but I really donāt think they have improved the game much for the better. The colour palette in RLL4 was so much better and more vibrant imo. Thereās massive frame rate drops with rain in RL26 Iām finding on ps5 too.
In reply to Radman regarding the sidestep/Right Joystick, I posted about this earlier in the thread a while back (day before release) with how OP the right joystick is and was with RLL4. Itās the exact same case with RL26; a pretty successful lottery for the attacker thatās in the gamesā code that rips the controller out of your hands. The only way I was able to counter this or tone it down to a reasonable extent was to lower each players individual sidestep and fend stats to 74 and lower, reducing their occurrences.
The problem here is this really highlights the gamesā overall poor mechanics and poor passing mechanics.
Thereās no sense of creating overlaps or taking advantage of short defensive numbers or building good team momentum with line breaks and catching the opposition offside at the 10 metre line. The game also fails miserably at the try line. So many attacking players just become bystander passengers in this game. To be āsuccessfulā with the ball takes virtually zero player skill and just sticking to the very limited ātracksā the game runs on.
Thereās no sense of expression or excitement or being able to play good heads up draw-and-pass footy. Thereās a plethora of new bugs that didnāt exist in the previous game, plus the old bugs that are still there all these years later - AI fullback still running the ball over the sideline after a punt kick, players still getting tackled without the ball resulting in a turnover with no penalty etc.
After seeing the extensive slider set and the good amount of kicking options available in AFL26 I thought we would have these improvements & flexibilities in RL26. Thereās some really good inclusions in AFL26 like low trajectory punt kick, outside of the foot banana kick, longer grubbers that can travel up to 40 metres, higher softer floating kick, manual kicking for deft touches, torpedo kicks, sliders for tackling range and success, sliders for ball spillages, ref/umpire strictness sliders, kick strength sliders, pass strength sliders, run speed sliders plus more. Why would they not bring them over into this ānewā game?
It really is a terribly poor release thatās seen zero improvements. Get working Big Ant. Please.

Are you sprinting (R2/RT)? This will increase high tackles. I try to never sprint in defence unless thereās a line break.
Actually that could be it 
you spelt titans wrong
After 8 years I thought surely some things would improve. But wow just wow this game is a absolute disgrace, how you can actually charge people for the state this game is in its just wrong, development team need to have a good hard look at them selves, Disgusting

Penalty kick for touch, kick in general play, knock on or forward pass, play is always then restarted at halfway, major flaw.
No international teams
Players listed in wrong positions
Only home and away jerseys
So far not impressed at all. RLL4 is still way ahead. It almost seems as this game was extremely rushed and has missed the mark on things that would make it a lot better.

I thought after 8 years there would be some improvement. But wow this game is an absolute disgrace, In every aspect of it, I can not stress how disappointing it is.
How you can actually charge people for this game is criminal. Fix it and fix it now what a disgrace, Developers should be ashamed of themselves.
You would have been better off just updating the rosters of all teams on rugby league 4 rather than putting this garbage out. I actually can not believe how bad it is. WOW
