Found a new glitch but it made me laugh, after I scored a behind and the blue overlay screen ended, every player from both teams were bunched up on my attacking 50 on the corner of the boundary just completely static

There was a video floating around on Facebook today where that happened and then there was a kick in and they all ran onto the field like it was Buddy 1000

Currently playing a manager career crows v Carlton. The commentators into was something along the lines of: welcome to Adelaide oval for gather rounds, where all teams converge to Adelaide etc etc. nice little touch I thought

Read a few pages

A patch is due to hit sometime in the next few hours and there's another one potentially hitting tomorrow.
There's a new patch on the Steam database, but (I don't think) anyone has downloaded it yet ? Otherwise we'd have a few of the Steam players already mentioning it on here.

They've been fixed where you cant hold sprint into a tackle, this will be fixed over the next couple days where if you sprint into a tackle its high risk high reward. (Holding the ball or in the back will be given)

I've downloaded it, nothing really has changed. Game hasn't crashed yet which is what they were fixing today

Fingers crossed that it actually remains STABLE otherwise the stability patch wasn't so stable (bad pun alert).
And hopefully this is another step in the right direction!

Hopefully!
As much as it’s slow and at times frustrating waiting, I’m glad it’s baby steps trying to figure out went wrong rather than just throwing everything in and hoping it works.
I’ve got plenty of time to be patient haha

Sounded more like their side in that tweet but I dunno.

They don't have control over when patches go through for consoles. Entirely on Sony. At least if the patches on PC cause more issues, they can address these for the consoles before they go through.

I know that but it seemed more like them needing time is what I was trying to say.

This also happened to me, Geelong managed to go coast to coast with an open forward line View attachment Snapchat-1611217959.mp4

Do we know when the ability to make Custom Logos will be in game? There is options to use them when creating a custom club and custom stadiums, but there doesn't seem to be any way to make them in the first place.

They are working on it. But probably won't be for a while until they address all the other problems. Fix gameplay and bugs first, add new features after

So do we know what was changed in the recent patch on Steam?

I believe the focus on the next patch is crashes. Could be wrong.

Stability, hopefully the game won't crash at all (or as often) before/during/after matches now.

Wasn't there a tackling one coming at some point tonight?

 

[Nicho50]

Wonder how much this is going to hurt cricket 24 sales. The Indian community that post on the cricket forums are now expects of Aussie Rules

 

[Ghile]

Not much apparently you can tackle now when you arent sprinting but how are you meant to tackle someone who is sprinting when you arent sprinting. Hopefully this patch fixes crashes tho

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

I’m not 100% sure on the order but tackling and crashes/stability are the next couple before additions and features start next week
