So much teleportation in this game. You tackle someone to the ground, they lie there for 2 or 3 seconds, and then the ball miraculously appears 20m away from the tackle. You run past someone, and they teleport 5m to tackle you. It's the like the animations all have a 10m triggering range.
It's...
Reinstalled for the first time since I deleted it about 11 months ago to see what the new update has done.
Jumped in an offline game vs Medium AI. About 20 seconds in I took a mark on the wing, and handballed to the man running past. There was no one in front of me and the man on the mark was a...
I uninstalled this after about 2 weeks, and haven't even thought about it since. Was wondering if there's anyone still playing it? Did they add Pro Team? Did they end up fixing the gameplay?
Or has it just been abandoned to rot while BA moved onto Cricket 24 etc?
Is there a way to make the AI in this game actually intelligent?
They can't read the play at all. I'll be streaming down in the wing, 70m out with only the full forward between me and the goals... and the campaigner wont lead. He either jogs back towards goal, or just stands off to the side.
It's...
Anybody else's mark timing metre still broken? Mine doesn't have the marker moving on it like it used to, it's always glitched out. Makes taking contested marks incredibly difficult
Is anyone else mark timing metre permanently glitched? No matter what the situation (pack mark, guy on a lead, guy free in the middle of nowhere) mine is always at the very end past the blue sweet spot. It doesn't move up or down, it's just stuck at the end.
Makes taking a contest mark impossible.
Game has crashed to dashboard first three attempts to play a match after the latest PS5 patch.
I can't remember the last time I had a game dashboard on me. AFL 23 has dashboarded on me a minimum of 20 times in the almost week I've had it.
I've just tried entering 4 online games since the patch on PS5. The exact same thing happens every time:
Opponent chooses his team. I choose mine, and then when it comes to jersey selection is shows the opposition team is using the same team as me when they aren't.
Then you'll get the...
The ball teleportation is crazy at the moment, especially after a smother. it just ends up 30m away in a completely different situation. Smothered a kick in the back pocket, ball was teleporting around like a ping pong ball in a tumble dryer, and then it just magically ended up in the other...
One thing I don't see mention of the patch notes that really concerns me is the umpiring.
These two things are happening to me multiple times every game:
Tackle someone with massive prior opportunity to the ground. The commentators act like it's a free kick... but the umpire does nothing, and...
The next PS5 patch can't come soon enough. 4 attempted games today, 4 crashes in the first quarter.
Off to go play something that's not a piece of s**t for the rest of the night, will revisit once the patch comes through.
This here is what makes Big Ant a bunch of campaigners though.
Why do we have to rely on people that aren't affiliated with Big Ant to relay second/third/fouth/fifth/sixth/twelfth hand news?
How hard is it to tell us what happened? Or is their PR department the same as their QA department...
Just out of interest, w
Just out interest. Has Big Ant actually come out and said "we uploaded the wrong version" or is that information coming second/third hand from streamers etc.
The patch has improved tackling from "tackles never work" to "tackles occasionally work if you're lucky", but there are still so many things that don't work properly or at all.
Sometimes the entire AI just stops. A player from one team will win the loose ball, and every single player on the...
This, plus the fact that tackling doesn't work, really makes you question just how much (if any) play-testing / QA was done on this game.
They are two fundamental mechanics, that a majority of us playing the game today were able to notice instantly. How did BA not notice/address them?
Important note for anyone considering buying as well.
INVITING YOUR MATES TO A FRIENDLY MATCH ISN'T CURRENTLY A FEATURE.
So if you were thinking that for $100 you could jump in a match with your mate, you're sorely mistaken.
I mean, he's not wrong though is he?
Yes people need to have realistic expectations when buying a game that's not made with the budget of EA/2K etc... but what they've released here is a borderline scam. Things as basic and as fundamental as tackling don't even work.
If you release a game in...
Obviously gameplay is king here. I'd take a game with almost no features in exchange for the best AFL gameplay we've ever had.
That being said, I hope that a MyTeam/FIFA Ultimate Team style mode is part of the plan for the future. With the way the AFL licensing works (well the way I think it...
I don't think he can replace Lambert any time soon. No chance he can put up the KM's that Kane does per game. And does he kick those two clutch goals in the PF that Lambert did? Probably not at this stage.
Rioli or Castagna maybe though.
