hey ross just wondering if you and the team are looking to put another patch in when this one comes out?
 
I actually blocked a shot at goal last night...thing is, I did it by just jumping with the man on the mark!

Was a close game and in the last quarter as well....Opponent was lining up and as he kicked, the ball veered off it's course and the umpire said "touched, play on".

Just did it by moving all over the place with the man on the mark and then just before he kicked it, I moved toward him and managed to run in over the mark by half a meter or so and then jumped at the exact time he kicked it. I'm sure it's been done before, but personally I only ever see the man on the mark block stab passes or general kicks in play.
 
I played (and won) my first game on 'Legend' today :D Flogged Gold Coast :D I'm going to gradually increase the difficulty of my opponents until I can beat Collingwood. I think I'll choose Port Adelaide for my next opponents :D

In the next game, if shepherding etc. off the ball is introduced, I honestly don't think the speed of sprinting will need to be changed from what it is now. So many times when I'm playing I know I'd be able to get in the clear if the AI could lay a decent off-the-ball block or bump. As it stands in this game though, I still feel something needs to be done in the patch, be it sprint speed increases, greater difference in the speed of slow players and fast players, and/or a more effective evade move.

Have started playing a 20min quarter season in quest to finish all the achievements. 2 games down and it's safe to say this is going to take a while, 80 minutes a game takes it out of you, especially when I'm winning by 300+ points.

Yeah it gets way too boring.
As much as I want to get the achievement, I just don't have the patience to do it. Winning by 300+ points really isn't fun, hopefully the difficulty increase is bumped up enough.
 
Going to sound like a noobish question, but is there a button that allows you to lock onto the ball whilst you're running towards it as it's on the ground?

I'm sick of running towards the ball and overrunning it, or having a kick bounce right past me despite it seemingly being in my path. :(

Triangle for the PS3, or the 'Y' button for the 360. Just hold it whenever you are running toward a loose ball. Simply a must-use button.

I sat down and tried to get this achievement. I lasted 5 minutes into the first quarter.

Champion! :eek: :thumbsu:

I'm improving my style with every game, except this was the one thing that used to see me come undone and almost throw my controller across the room. I knew there was an easier way! Cheers! :D
 
I played a game online 2 days ago and won by 100+ , I checked my record today and that match record was gone! Can anyone tell me why? (ie the win is no longer registered as it was before)

What would peoples thoughts on a mutual quit button where if you are getting absoloutley smashed and you are not going to win you can offer your opponent the win and your opponent will still get the win and the xp and you will still get some but xp but not as much as sticking the game out.

And alternatively if you are winning and have something more pressing that needs your attention you can offer your opponent the draw thus still giving you xp and keeping both parties happy as no one gets a loss and you both get xp.

The reason the winning person can only offer a draw is because if it was a win it would be as soon as they get infront they would offer the win and the leaderboard would not be acurate to the players who are actually good at the game.

What are peoples thoughts ?

Could work. Personally I'd like to wait and see how the patch changes things before more factors are added into multiplayer.

I invited you to play a game while you were playing carlton. Couldnt tell if you were playing someone online or not at the start then i checked back in 10 mins and you were ahead by 150 pts haha
 
I just beat Freo on 'Legend' - 13.4 (82) to 10.3 (63). Kennedy (3 goals and 17 possessions) was probably best on ground, while Lynchy and Nic Nat chimed in with 3 each as well :D


Also, Freo should have had another goal, but one of the funniest bugs ever prevented it :D Freo took a mark inside the forward 50, and I was annoyed because I was in the perfect position to mark it myself, so I decided to randomly take out Ballantyne. As you do. So the Freo player who took the mark originally was awarded a 50m penalty, which put him inside the goal square. But instead of going back to take his shot, he sprinted across the ground, out of bounds and into the fence :confused: Meanwhile, the umpire is blowing his whistle for the move-on warning, and the Freo idiot is still happily running to into the fence :D Eventually the umpire calls play-on, realises the ball is out of bounds, and there is a boundary throw-in :D

Funniest thing I've ever seen :D
 
Just had all my XP and online stats reset. Spewing!
Have gone from rank 180 to 7890 overnight. Had the Big Ant badge as well and is gone now...

The only good thing is it has rest my reliability to the top setting!
Tried to start online again and have lost 3 games by narrow margins and the 3 games I was winning the opponent ragequit. It's funny when you can hear them get frustrated in their mic so I know to shank some shots and let them back into a bit. Doesn't always work though :(

if you message Ross im sure he would be more than happy to look into restoring your online stats
 
Does anyone else get absolutely crucified time and time again with the advantage rule? So many times I'll get a free, and the ball will roll out of bounds, or to a contest as I'll stop for the free, then a few seconds later the advantage shows up in the corner, way too late and i lose any advantage I had.

Yeah, happens to me too.

It's as annoying as the real advantage rule!
