    Footy Showdown: Devlog [ New Screenshot ]

    Personally think you should strip it right back to a single match, Team X vs Team Y, release that as an Early Access title or whatever, tweak that based on feedback etc until you're happy with it, then slowly add new features until it's feature complete and ready for an official release. If you...

    Are there any AFL Football games on devices these days?

    I did enjoy seeing Andrew McDougall take out the Coleman/Brownlow combo he was so cruelly denied in real life. Great game!

    The Next AFL Game is Being Developed By Big Ant Studios

    Been a lot of snark form all sides since Big Ant lost the rights. 11 years is a long time for that to build. Live by the sword, die by the sword I guess, cannot wait to see what sort of game is released given that sort of internal and external pressure. Bring back the shirtfront button from AFL...

    Will actually play career mode now that I can start it in the WAFL :thumbsu:

    I imagine it'll be updated team lists and uniforms, the 2018 fixture, and Perth Stadium. And I'll be happy with that. Will be weird seeing Richmond rated the best team, but the AFL games don't seem to have much variation in the team ratings, so maybe we'll see half a star difference between...

    4.5/10 in the latest Game Informer. Weird review. Obviously reviewed before the latest patch which is fair enough, but he talks about issues I've never even heard of as common experiences which makes me think he played it without even the day one patch. It's not perfect but I wouldn't have...

    Go all out and add a story mode where you play as a young up and coming Ben Cousins with Mass Effect style Paragon/Renegade choices so you can either end up the first Eagle to 300 games with a wing named after you at Perth Stadium, or end up drug addicted, at Richmond, and then in prison.

    Ah, you're right. I re-read the notes. Brilliant! They're also making the marking circles blue to indicate optimum timing to press the mark button. I mentioned that here as something they could do and also messaged Wicked Witch directly with the suggestion. I'm sure others did too but it's made...

    My two biggest gripes (having held off on career mode etc until patches) were defenders coming off their man even when tactics were set to defensive leading to easy chip-over-the-top goals, and the broken advantage rule. They're both being fixed so I'm rapt. Third biggest gripe would be those...

    The patch looks like it will solve pretty much all of my issues with the game. I just hope I don't have to start from scratch. My only issue is having to press a button to not take the advantage. Seems weird.

    The most infuriating bug/"feature" for me is those instances where the game REFUSES to give you control. That breaks the fundamental interactive nature of videogames. The most glaring example is when the opposition is running through the middle of the ground, and your CHB (for example) will...

    I just don't understand how the player name commentary bug is a thing. It doesn't appear to exist in Single Game mode, as soon as I play Season it's all over the place. Darling is called Cripps, Priddis is called Petrie, Shuey is messed up too, can't remember who he is called. Surely in the...

    I have. An absolute monster torp from Nic Nat, that was shepherded through by Kennedy. Felt like this (except from a set shot): Speaking of which, I love being able to shepherd through goals in this, feels nice and intuitive. Have also started a Season and have started to notice the...

    Hadn't played for a few nights, was keen last night, nek minnit Xbox One update that took a ridiculously long time to download and install so I played Prey on PC instead. Hopefully tonight I get my footy fix in.

    Damn he's good. Just goes to show how much depth there is to the game and how much I still need to learn.

    Lost to Hawthorn at the G by one lousy point after kicking 3 straight behinds in the last quarter (to Hawthorn's nothing) mainly due to stupid things like hitting the wrong button to soccer an easy goal. The curse is real :(

    I can win regularly on Hard now. Just beat the Bulldogs so it's not as if I'm flat-tracking either :P Most recent win I was only outmarked 18-24 and I bet most of the difference were those dinky little unstoppable marks that should be patched out. Finally starting to jostle properly which helps...

    I'll have to double check the default Eagles line-up to see if it even has a second ruckman, but I always end up with Schofield when Nic Nat is off.

    Played my first two games on Hard last night. Lost the first to Carlton by ~3 goals. This was the scoreline in my second game against Gold Coast (2.5 min qtrs): West Coast 0.0 (0) Gold Coast 2.2 (14) West Coast 0.0 (0) Gold Coast 3.3 (21) West Coast 1.0 (6) Gold Coast 3.5 (23) West Coast 5.0...

    It's one of the best feelings in the game when you pull it off. I often forget too, or become too flustered in the heat of the action to remember how to do it nek minnit HTB or I've handpassed it straight to the opposition. Maybe I should be less critical when players do that in real life? Nah.

    I beat the AA team by 4 goals on Medium so it's time to bump up the difficulty I think! I forgot to check how many marks I ended up with but I completed the match objective to take 18, so it was a decent number. Still laughing at the people who returned the game because marking has a learning...

    Got beaten twice in a row last night vs Collingwood on Medium. Got quite frustrated. But I tried your advice this morning and what a difference it made! I'm still not perfect by any means, but I took 14 marks against Freo on Medium, including at least 8 contested (to complete one of the match...
