AFL Evolution - Launch thread

[weirdo]

Just picked it up myself, price-matched with JB. Looking forward to getting stuck in.

Yes Mr Goldberg, everything stinks.

What's this weird stapled together paper thing inside the case?

In all seriousness the booklet is a nice touch.

I wonder if those streams were players using the patched version, or if they wanted to get in early and didn't update it.

 

[freddy mercury]

Just picked up mine, making a ruck!

 

[compact72]

So downloaded the 7gb update. After that, there's another 3GB update

 

[boydsno1]

Never used that camera angle that the second stream is using. I prob should as it opens the field up so much more.

 

[boydsno1]

No, it's happening with this other streamer, too. This is Live 2 all over again for me.

Is this be a pro mode?

 

[soups1982]

first impressions from the streams is that the game looks good, however the commentary will require more work in future interations.

certainly a great starting point, to which I hope there is more investment.

looking forward to playing this tonight.

Picked up my pre-order from EB, price matched JB for $79 and only ended up paying $13 for it with trade ins

I've missed having a proper instruction manual.

First impressions-
I like the congested ball, handballing looks quick and tap ons look great. Impressed with inaccuracy of the AI
- Not a fan of the slow kicks they all seem the same. Marking contests havent changed from previous games
- if the career mode is engaging enough I'll be happy with the purchase but gameplay alone probably hasn't changed enough from what I've seen to justify $78

Finally in! First impression is awesome. Awesome feature is tapping along the ground as opposed to picking it up. Handballs are quick and kick types are aweosm

 

[mad_monkey_j]

I can't for the life of me mark or spoil, but I'll figure it out eventually.

The frame rate absolutely shits the bed during replays for some reason. Other than that it's pretty solid so far.

Xbox one and with nbn. Just going up and down speeds then stopping taken ages

I'veread and had some success with putting the Xbox in standby/always on mode and setting it to let downloads continue in that state..... things generally download faster. I've also read that how fast things download can depend on how full your hard drive is at the time (eg: only 20% free the download chugs along).

Oh dear this looks really average what a shame

 

[VitalDread]

Slowly gotta wait for work to finish and the guy streaming to show career mode

Soon i will create a VFL legend who every year is in contention to be drafted but doesn't

Do players shepherd for the ball carrier? The main thing that was missing in afl live 1

 

[Trixiii]

I haven't played an AFL game since 2003.

Can you play competitive online matches in this?

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Watching the Twisties guy run around in an empty field. Only thing I've determined is that I still hate the whistle sound they use.

 

[scaryness]

Installing now. 14.09GB + 3.5GB patch

 

[Ahern2Boof]

Having real grief taking a mark in my first play through, but seem to be competing well.

AI has missed five easy shots at goal in the first quarter which is a good sign.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

best place to buy?

 

[jack son 5]

Can you play the game without updating. From what I've read it's a 7GB patch.

FFS, why release a game if it's not finished properly yet.
