What is this garbage?

Got the number one pick and there are players in the high 80s!

Also managed to trade in Fyfe, Dusty, Heath Shaw, Alex Rance, Bont, Tom Lynch, and Callum Mills just as Brisbane.

Wicked Witches this makes the career mode almost unplayable, how is this acceptable? Do you really think all this is realistic or do you just not care?

What's your management difficulty on? I'm putting mine on legend to hopefully erase that
 


My second copy arrived today lol.

Now time to take my first one back to EB and get some money back.

(Went through the trouble of buying a copy last night to play it instead of waiting for my mailed copy today lol)

So the career mode is completely ripped from the mobile game.

Pissweak effort Wicked Witch

It honestly seems like almost the entire game had been constructed from other games Wicked Witch has developed. It's got various elements taken straight from their rugby game, the iPad AFL game and AFL Live 2. At least they tweaked the gameplay from AFL Live 2.

Medium, that won't change the draftee ratings though. Going to bump mine up to Legendary now.

Yeah it feels like they were on a tiny budget.

Advertising was disingenuous though. Bulldogs video showing all players getting facescanned and then only about a quarter of the list actually getting them. Built from the ground up when the career mode is exactly the same with the addition of a be a pro mode that's been ripped from their union game.

Facebook answers misrepresented various elements of the game as well.

Don't mind a shit game. Don't appreciate lipstick on a pig.

So nothing :p

Don't worry, I'm going to go to town on them and ensure a couple of thousand people hear about it.
 
Am now wondering if you have to have certain settings set BEFORE starting a Be a Pro career in order to be able to access the team lineup screen in game. Possibly have interchange set to manual etc. before starting your career rather than changing it during your career.

Either way, some pretty damn frustrating bugs in this game.

Feel like you must be more upset than anyone, having the most posts and likes in the official thread for 6 months leading up to the game, only to hate it a few hours after it got released.

I don't even own the game. I just like watching haro stick it people

In be a pro mode you need to be the captain in order to access the team lineup. So if you start as a rookie you will need to be prompted to that position.

Over Pro Career. Getting dragged every couple of minutes is painstakinly frustrating.

I knew Be a Pro mode was going to be problematic. Knowing Wicked Witches' track record, I just had a feeling they would rip it from the rugby game making as few changes possible, which would cause some real problems with the interchange.

I don't get it. Why do they try to make so many game modes? It was the case with Live 2 that they had more features than Live but the gameplay was abhorrent, and they've doubled down on that with this game. It appears they were looking for things to put on the box to make the game appear similar to the big-name sporting franchises rather than trying to get the core gameplay right.
 
What does everyone reckon about a bugs list thread? I recall one being made on here when AFL Live 1 came out and it seemed to be taken well as it makes it easier for the devs to see what they need to fix

I've made a minor patch thread to that effect this arvo
 
I just bombed from inside centre square. Torp. No trophy. Love to know how the 0.9% of ppl have this.
