Anyone else hopeful for heritage guernseys too? It'd be good if in the Fan Hub you could create a jumper and then just assign it to your prefered AFL team

Would be good to have a sort of Don Bradman logo creator so they don't have to purchase licences and other people can share and download them

As good as the custom content creation tools are in DBC 17 I'd still always prefer AFL games to be licensed,there's a level of polish in a licenced game that you can't get in those custom tools

I would like those tools in the game eventually though so we can create WAFL,SANFL etc teams

You can be AFL licensed and still open up the creation tool for people who want to make the lower leagues. That said though, considering how big of a dog's breakfast the logo thing has been on DBC it's probably best avoided.

So long as there isnt that gigantic pause between the player's name and then the line, like in previous AFL games.

I'm gonna say 10,000 is a lot more than we usually get. That would have taken days if not weeks to record.

I'm gonna say it probably took nearly a month with Richo on board! He's not exactly quick on the trigger lol

How does 10,000 lines compare with previous AFL games?

Was also interested in this and after a quick google search all I can see to compare it to is a stat about NBA 2K14 (which isn't really a fair comparison, I know). It has over 250,000 lines.

Edit: Just also found that EA's NHL 15 has over 35,000 unique lines. It mentions that in most cases they record the same lines in 3 or 4 different tones to capture the right moment given the situation in the game. I think this could be why the word 'unique' is missing in WW's sentence.

Saw this get posted on one of the Facebook pages for Evolution . Looks like a trailer will be a fair bit off

Some of the lines in the Live games date back to the old IR Gurus games too, hopefully this time around it's all new.

The worst thing about that was that they were the exact same lines, yet had been re-recorded. Like surely they could have thought up some other things for him to say.

This is definitely true for NHL games. The commentary isn't amazing, and is far more repetitive than the NBA games (as those numbers suggest) but it can get the tone right. For example, all players have a standard tone for phrases like "Crosby passes to Malkin" but then after a goal only star players have more of a "Crosby!!!" exclamation.

Had another commentary pearler from Live 1 today

Dennis: "BT your thoughts?"
BT: "Fremantle! Adelaide!"
Dennis: "Thanks BT"

To be fair it doesn't get much more realistic than BT yelling random words.

One of BT's more insightful comments if you ask me. Are you 100% sure you weren't watching him commentate a real game?

I hope that AFL video games one day reach a level of sophistication where BT consistently yells out the wrong player name, and it's not a bug.

AFL Evolution thread from 2020, "BT always yells the wrong names and Dwayne Russell seems to repeat the same 5 lines over and over."
"You wanted realism..."

20 years on, and this is the best commentary in a footy game:

I hate how all you ever see is the grass and you have no idea how close or far away you are to anything. That was my lasting impression of this game on the PC. That and the fact all anyone ever said was "behind!" and I had no idea that meant a point when I was an 8-year old. It was hard too.

I still wonder why the 50 metre writing is in the middle of the ground... with no arc...
