Rugby League 26 - Megathread

Would love the option to do short dropouts, like they do 9/10 times in the NRL. Implementing the kickoff from Rugby 25 with some tweaks re contesting would be awesome.

There is still an incorrect rule in the game regarding change over when tackled on the 5th tackle. If you get tackled within the attacking 10m line and the try line (on 5th tackle), the changeover should be where the tackle is made. Instead, the game takes it out to the 10m line. This eliminates the chance of running it on 5th tackle getting tackled a metre out and handing the ball over on that spot to put pressure on them in defence.

How often do you expect to pull of fends? They’re not supposed to work every tackle.

Big Ant a suggestion there’s a problem in the game with last play kicking it’s far too easy for defenders to rush the kicker with charge downs working most of the time & then it being called knockon. To fix this a idea would be the kicking action triggering a slow motion play in order for kickers to get off the kick & slowing defenders from charging down every play. A way to implement this better would be to have more time for better halfbacks/5eighths and less for lower tiers, put every players kicking down except halfbacks so slow motion triggers only for kickers & duration of that slow motion is longer for better kickers say a cleary for example & faster expiration of slow motion for less skilled halfback kickers like a blaize talagi. Other positional players like wingers could still have grubber kicking stats exceptions could be a crichton or doueihi who are known to be good general play kickers also. This would add fluidity,realism & another layer to the game. Also add in a play book for us to select 5 plays from to use in game, have a 3-5 second slowdown while the hooker is at the ball to be able to select a play it’ll keep the balance of the game while also scratching that tactical itch the set play feature is there for. Rugby league is a 6 play game before it’s the next teams turn a set play could be a 2 sequence play where you have to get to a certain part of the field to trigger the next variation the possibilities are endless

I suggested just make it six again from both blocked kicks and charge downs recovered by the attacking team as a disincentive. The attacking team recovers more often than not so would be a good way to make pressing the kicker less desirable.

all that talent? where mate ahahaha
worst team in the comp but haven’t got a spoon since 1936, clown

Unfortunately I have a few Pro Team purchases stuck in the My Bids ā€œPendingā€ section. The Pro Team Coin payment has been taken.

Anyone else had this issue?

Every time I open pro teams and go to the daily log in rewards it freezes the game since the last update.

Anyone know a way around this

It’s the same with the commentary. If you make a sub in the 40th minute the game treats it as if it’s 5 min in

Hopefully they add a ā€œsortā€ system like in rl24. Nice being able to see who was best/worst for each individual stat

In some stadiums, the bench players are still on the opposite side of the field. Accor Stadium for example. Hopefully BA looks through all the stadiums and fix them.

Anyone able to share the proper technique for general kicking? Bombs seem fine for me but when I punt sometimes I don’t get the full power I’m wanting. Are we meant to hold kick?
