AFL Game Part 3

[Ochre]

What about having a player interview after a match and you get to choose what to say from muti choice questions.

that would be quite funny at first

X - We're just taking it one week at a time.
O - It was a good win by the boys
[] - A weeks a long time in football
/\ - Get your superman capes on, it's wharfie time

Hey Ross and everyone else.

Sorry if they've been asked b4.

will classic matches be considered as a game option? Like in some of the NFL, NHL, UFC etc games where you take control of a game can have to replicate a historical result or change it.

Also............ i love you bigant studios

 

[Critta]

also It would be good if there could be a one player story involved.

Those game types always go down smooth

 

[illnino]

also It would be good if there could be a one player story involved. Like from the start of the season your in the rooms and the coach come up to you and introduce you to the boys for your debut.

And also depending on weather you lose of win the story changes, like if you lose too much, the media gets on your back and the coach could get the sack.

What about having a player interview after a match and you get to choose what to say from muti choice questions.

Maybe during the season some player does something stupid and you have to talk sense into them or not.

You go to the brown low after party and get to choose weather you deck Fev all let him continue his night.

I think I'm too far ahead but it would be f**king awesome.

Welcome to the world of 'Be a Pro' mode. Ross says it will be in future releases, but probably not to that extent.

Also MmMilkman, I am really hoping it does put Big Ant on the map

Hard ball gets will be there.

Every AFL stadium is there, including Tassie and Darwin.

Will Blacktown Olympic Park and Gold Coast Stadium will be on the game...

You'd feel the same way if you'd posted over a dozen questions and had every one of them ignored. Everyone else seems to be getting a response except me. I even posted questions about replays and weather effects that were ignored, only to have someone else get a response when they asked the exact same thing several pages later?!

It seems that whenever I post no one wants to respond, I've been nothing but polite prior to that post.

I registered on this forum for a reason, to interact with Ross and others regarding this game, but it's like I'm invisible here.

I'm done with site. Goodbye.

I don't mean to be playing favorites or anything, simply hitting the "quote" button doesn't necesarily mean that I am only posting to the poster. I also have different reasons for not responding that sometimes only we at Big Ant or the publisher could know.

If more than one person asks the same question - and this is not an invite to do so - then I take it more seriously... like I *know* the next snippet has to be of a certain Brisbane player or I'll be lynched.

There are definitely things that I am going to hold back on - I am honest and up front with that. My choice is to piss some people off because they don't have a response or just go away and say nothing at all - which is what we have been doing the last couple of years.

As a fan of the game I have decided that if I were on the other side of the fence then I'd rather know all that I can. Feedback from here will definitely change the game, it already has.

PS: I agree, your posts have been more than polite - I have never meant any offense. The other thing I should point out is that I don't sit on here all the time, I might read a few pages in one go.

Naitanui's socks?

 

[BigAntStudios]

Hey Ross,
Will players ever go to ground?
Also in the wet, can you slide/dive towards the ball or even punch it foward as your doing it?

The players definitely go to ground, sliding in the wet I haven't tried - I will tomorrow.

 

[LionMen]

Number 12 you got your reply Nice work ross

 

[BigAntStudios]

Is there a manual replay mode? That is can we pause at any time and go into a replay. Something that may not be in the first title that I'd love would be the ability to upload videos of your best goals to the net to share.

There will be facebook integration and certainly snapshots posted there - we are investigating having the videos sent to youtube - this only works on PS3 as the Xbox does not have those facilities.

 

[JulianPearce]

Are you able to tell us how difficult the game will be on the hardest difficulty?

 

[lynchy4610]

Sound's like the game is pretty much complete with minor tweaks being made to things like the trophies, and then working out the online follow up support and extra things like the facebook/youtube upload things.

Fair to say everyone is eager for its release and hopefully it is this year, with all these extra features you have been talking about, it definitely sounds a winner in both the game play/looks and also the possible support/uploading replays etc, just shows how much you guys have really put in!

That sounds really good. Shame I'll be getting it on 360 but none the less nice work.
You guys have obviously sat down and looked at all the possibilities for the game which is great.
Can we save replays?

One thing I'd like to see is allowing people to watch a game as it is played. Would be a great feature but no doubt very hard to implement and probably very demanding on the bandwidth of users.

 

[lynchy4610]

Another Q that you may not be able to answer but I know it was said injury plays a big part in a season/career mode test of depth for weaker sides, but do injury's actually occur in the match and you are made aware of them or you actually notice the play get injured, or will it be like the previous games where an icon will show up saying that a player is injured badly or a minor injury that is manageable during the game

I suggest the first thing you do after leaving this site is wash the sand out of your vagina.

Ignore this clown Ross, the rest of us are smart enough o realise not every question will be answered and we are grateful for this level of interaction. Cheers.

a question not sure if its been asked before how will the ball bounce because in 03- premiership edition is barley bounced and in 05-07 the bounce was unrealistic will this game have realistic bounces depending on the weather.
And any chance for another screen shot this week

 

[InGoddardWeTrust]

This game sounds like it'll be awesome!

Seeing as you mentioned replays can we save them to the PS3/360 hardrive?

If we can get them to youtube then we'll get them to the hard drive, I will know more on this later.

 

[mobitout]

On the topic on bounces, will they always be straight or will they have to rebounce sometimes?
not that it really matters..

 

[LionMen]

Will the commentary actually know every player coz on afl 2006 or 07 i think nathan van berlo is called #7 when he gets the ball, and will the commentary be very repetitive or will there be plenty of speech

We will do the best we can - honestly, it's never perfect - but even in the real thing you see some unbelievable bounces that if we had simulated them you would think them wrong...
