    Multiplat AFL 23 - Part 2 (23/04/24 PATCH: Sliders are here)

    I guess that’s fair. And I’m sort of getting off the track if my own original argument anyway. My opinion, I guess to bring it back to where I was coming from originally, is that this launch is somewhat indicative of what’s happening far too often, games being released in less than perfect shape...

    Bottom of the barrel? Like: halo master chief collection Cyberpunk 2077 Fallout 76 Anthem Star Wars battlefront II Marvel Avengers Battlefield 2042 Every Madden for 4+ years And numerous PC ports of big console games. I mean there literally dozens of similar if not worse launches in the last 2...

    I don’t want people to mistake my comments as saying there’s “nothing to see here” or that I find this launch in anyway acceptable. I’m just legitimately querying this objectively false narrative some seem to be pushing that this launch is a once off and rarely, if never, happens in the...

    Been living under a rock much? It’s been the state of gaming for 4+ years now, including massively high profile and big budget games. Some are never fixed satisfactorily. Madden has been a patch fest for 5 years until they completely f*** it after a few months and give up

    With all the obvious negatives currently in the game, I must give a shout out to the artists responsible for the stadiums. Many of them are more than comparable to any of the big name sports games. They absolutely stand up to anything. A little harder to compare to indoor sports like nba2k and...

    You are on PC? I was going to say this yesterday. I have seen you bringing this up, and I am seeing it but evidently not as often as you seem to be. Launch day on PS5 I certainly saw this quite often but since the first patch its "only" a handful of times a game. Im seeing the 75m backwards...

    I fully agree, the only thing I will say is that cricket24 is obviously an iteration of 22 so one might think, or hope, that it needs less man power to get it over the line as AFL did being a ground up project. So fingers crossed they can still spare the resources that this game will require. I...

    Agree. I cant tell if it s their super decision making/disposal speed or the overall game speed or a mixture of both. The game does feel too fast overall.

    Tackling while sprinting has often been a trigger to giving away free kicks in various previous footy games(too high, in the back), which i actually dont mind as a premise. A bit of risk/reward.

    😂 certainly not. It’s more for much smaller “hot fixes” etc.. to avoid what I think you’re alluding to. On the flip side, they also can’t make it much worse.. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Maybe…Probably…. Sony have, or at least they did have, an avenue for devs to get smaller patches and fixes rushed through, bypassing testing etc.. depending on what the patch is for to speed up the process for exactly these type of situations. But you are right, it did take a while yesterday.

    Finally got to suss this thing out properly for myself. Firstly..Clearly PC must’ve been worse off than ps5 judging by many of the reported issues here. • Cutting out the hyperbole and vitriol.. Only those that haven’t played ANY previous Big Ant games would be calling this unsalvageable...

    I understand the sentiment of what you’re saying but that’s not really how most publishers and devs work in the industry. The fact Ross comes in here and gives some answers, ignores others, gives vague answers etc.. etc.. adds to this notion of poor communication.. and at times that’s what it...

    Certainly not in any patch we are getting in the short term. It will be multiple patches across weeks to get this game where it needs to be. Cricket22 has had a truckload of stuff added since launch. Including full competitions, adding the extra franchises into IPL Contrary to some opinions, BA...

    I just tried to see if the disc was playable by chance without updating and as I was told earlier, it doesn’t let you get past the menu screen, either without an internet connection or downloading the .002 patch. (Ps5)

    No. They can be anything. Modes, features, animations, AI. Literally anything they want. People need to take a breath and just see what the hell has happened here. It’s obviously unacceptable but it’s equally obvious something pretty monumental has happened. There’s no way they release...

    Pretty sure you were the only one saying this. I’d rather they weren’t banned so they can come here and give us an update. Clearly they’ve got their hands pretty full atm…

    Depending on what is actually wrong, I believe Sony allow devs to make small changes and patches without going through the full testing process.

    Yeah discs are usually the “gone gold” version, digital versions can often be more advanced on release day, often already containing the day 1 patch

    Is this confirmed? On release day a lot of games are often different versions.

    This is what I want clarity on. Are you playing the digital version or disc version? And have you had access to a patch or patches yet?

    3? Most games are released in a shocking state these days and/or publishers and devs flat out lie and deceive about the state of the game in lead up, put review embargo’s to hide details. This is clearly an unacceptable release, I expected some level of “brokenness” today but this is a little...
