Ross,

just another question, Fremantle does this quite a bit, when you travel away from home, do you get to choose a guersney and shorts just before the loading screen (Like Madden NFL 10 and 11).

Port Adelaide does this as well, there away guersney is mostly white, and when they wen to Skilled Stadium this year (very dark day!) the team wore there home jumper but there shorts were white.

So basically, Can you change the jumper before you play to avoid clashes with he other team guersneys?

Thanks for the info so far mate!

Yeah that's a good question like you said with freo was watching freo's game today and was thinking you should be able to pick guernseys and shorts seperatly
 
Hey Ross, a quick question regarding Simulating matches

For those that dont plan on individually playing each game in a season, will there be a generate result option, like there was in previous games with the Career mode

Is it just a generated result, or does it come with viewable stats, and goal kickers for the simulated

Personally i think the best version of this came from FIFA a few years back, where you live simulated it, and it gave a running commentary of the game, and you could intervene and play at any point in the game (usually when you went 1-0). I think this would be handy inclusion to the game down the track for those who dont necessarily wish to play all games, but still have some control over their team

Yep, Madden has something like this too. They also have an option where you can play a game and save it half way through, so you can come back another day and complete it. Probably far too hard to implement this early though.

On simulation, will player's stats be realistic? For example, I don't want to sim and game and see Prestigiacomo with 30 touches and Dane Swan with 15. Nor do I want to see a game with team scores of 170-165 or something like that.

Visual sim. :thumbsu: I'd be surprised if it's in this edition, but in the future it would be an exceptional feature.

Also, in the previous games I never knew, was there a home ground advantage implemented at all? If not, it would be an interesting idea for this or the next game. I know EA did it with the FIFA World Cup game and it really added realism to it.

That would depend on how long you set the quarter length I'm pretty sure Ross suggested.
 
Is there like, individual personality's? Not like everyone with the same kicking style, Jared Brennan for example, will he play with 1 hand and guide it down with two hands?

Great idea! but I think this will come in the later versions! FIFA 11 is just introducing it this year so BigAnt will probably take another year or two.

Question to ross or Ant,

Is there Goal of the Year and Mark of the Year?
 
I don't know what type of plans you would have for a torpedo modifier and spear pass button. But personally I would like them to either not be there or be VERY hard to perfect. There'd just be too much use of those buttons in general play and online too, would become annoying if they weren't all that hard to use well.
Again on the control scheme. I reckon a one-two button much like what FIFA has again with passing should be introduced.

In FIFA it works by you holding L1 and pushing the pass button, what happens is you pass the ball and then that player leads on for a return pass. Something that is similar with the handballs for an AFL game would be good and would really feed into a gameplan like Geelong and their use of handballs and a lot of one-two passing, could also keep the gameplay nice and fast and fluid.

Why are you asking Ant?

I think it'll take more than a year or two.

And GOTY and MOTY would be, IMO, impossible to implement. How would it work?

Coz Ant, replies to posts a bit more than Ross!

Well NBA Live 10 touched on it, they saved dunks every now and then automatically the stupid thing was a the end of the season they didn' replay them. In NBA Live 10 if you did a good layup/dunk on the replay it something like Sprite Top ten Dunk.
 
I reckon there should be a GOTY and MOTY for people who submit videos online
Maybe one entry per PSN/XBOX account, and you can submit your best Goal and Mark, and then Big Ant decide who the GOTY and MOTY goes to, and a sutiable prize is offered
What would be a suitable price though from a $0 prize budget? There's no real incentive either to offer up a couple of prizes as well.

I just thought it would be a good adition, and would encourage fans to upload content, which would get more people buying the game
The prizes could be easily handled by the AFL (GF tickets, memberships), after all it is their game being made

Maybe we could offer a woodenspoon =)
Or a offer to coach Brisbane

So you were talking like an Official thing, not BigFooty run (as I'm expecting there to be yet another thread dedicated to uploaded vids anyway)?

Either way it'd be fairly messy (would have to have a proper vid uploading feature across both platforms I reckon to run something like that) and it'd most definitely have to be a fan vote...can you imagine BigAnt really looking through 1000's upon 1000's of shitty and good GOTY and MOTY vids? Would be ridiculous.
 
Yeah I already knew that, what I was trying to say is that ant reply's more even though he is not the maker of the game, he still knows quite a bit about it!
He knows no more than has been said on these threads (he's even said this numerous times). He certainly doesn't know what the inner workings are of the game, thus himself asking quite a few questions as well.

Ant remains objective as he knows no more about the game than is posted here, I think this is a good thing.

I can only hope that Ant feels no more pressure to post than he otherwise would. He's done a great job getting the faq together and I am very thankfull for that, otherwise this thread would be totally out of control.
