Rugby League 26 - Megathread

Not sure if this issue is ps5 exclusive or not but i know in the game description on ps store and in the game options it talks about vibration functions in the game, however on ps5 there is no vibration on anything in the game even when its enabled. It would be great if this issue was addressed.

Playing Broadcast Right Stick is a bit all over the joint at times and doesn’t seem relative to direction lol Without much conviction I think long hold to the left or right on RS. For this one I was really just trying to drive forward but may have got my angle slightly wrong. But definitely held it longer and a bit earier like I would for a drive

No worries hope it works out, very hard to tell with Broadcast for me I know I held right (forward) on the RS so it may well be tied to the drive for all I know, and there was a held show pass in there too, just loving Broadcast Far giving the game an arcadey element in a really good way in the player movement and speed, camera angle and movement reminds me a lot of the pro evolution soccer games from the early 2010’s which I absolutely adored Val was right its the best

Thank you Big Ant RL26 team, game is great fun, and with continuing updates could end up being the Goat of RL games. Great improvements in try line defense, great work with offloads, risky but yet attainable. Would like to see:

  1. More distance on grubbers kicks,
  2. More variations on try line hold ups, hand under ball, knee under the ball, ect ect, animations that you really do have to take a second look at the replay with video judge, at the moment just skipping the video judge 90% of the time because you see the outcome, no need to see the replay. In previous RLL games there were more try line variations of put downs and the ball being help up.
  3. One on one Strips would be nice, with being penalized if more then one in the tackle.

Cheers, and looking forward to next updates, but this game has really surpassed Rugby 25 in fun factor and true to life game play. And that is coming from a Rugby Union player.

It certainly has been getting better with each patch.

Good job on RL26 and I hope we get some good updates on R25 too in the near future.

Just a quick cosmetic question regarding the balls. Apart from the Super League all other British competitions are using an NRL ball?? Even if you could switch it for the SL ball that would at least make it more realistic.

I won’t state the obvious competitions that are missing, but it would be phenomenal to see these added down the line.

Many thanks and keep up the good work Big Ant :ant::+1:

Might be only one that wants this but I’d love to be able to place field markings and be able to make embankment’s slight hills etc for custom made stadiums. And have more props to place cricket 24 does this bloody well woth a few of these but RL26 seems to be missing abit :slight_smile:

Is there any way to set commentators? I only get SL ones during career and Cameron Smith is dreadful to listen to.

Had a go last night & it seems the spin happens when you’re too close to the defender or about to get tackled it. instead of side stepping it will do a spin.

Looks decent when you fend them off after a spin.

Enjoying the new patch so far.

Had the AI get their first 40/20 today, was nice to see!

The improvement/speeding up of AI general play kicking/punting is a huge game changer. Huge.
This can still be improved upon further with animation glitching/close to the tryline kicking but such a better game for it. Have had the AI kick half a dozen 40/20s on 4th tackle and also a 20/40, having to think about dropping my wingers back now. I would love to see the AI kick chase tightened up a bit now between the Centre and 2nd Rower and the drop goal ball physics improved.

Finding the AI is far less predictable too with the ball, don’t know which side of the ruck they’re going to play and AI actually providing some wow moments with passing and moves.

It’s added and in the game just hidden for now so the team have done all the work to have it there - they just need NSWRL to allow it to be released.

Similar issue to the frequent knock ons we had but now accidental offside, just in a game now where a pass went to ground, my player ran into it knocking it back with his feet and then picked it up, was called an accidental offside when it would be play on 100% of the time.

Looks like the Half/Five-eight positioning has been fixed with the latest update. Appreciate the work BA. Ruck and ruck speed feeling a lot tidier too
