Michaels Twitch video with QA from Ross(BigAntStudios) from 31:40

And why isn't Michaels impartial?

Provide the evidence.

Who are you?

During game stats. Quarter by quarter. Leading goal kickers, disposals etc.

Just like in afl 2004

 

[Aus12]

Tell you what, even an apology for any one of the large number of issues surrounding this whole release would go a long way.

In saying that, really can't fault the kicking at goal, it genuinely looks great and shows off the quality of the player models.

I said this on the other thread and got blasted from pillar to post, but its so obvious it actually baffles me people think otherwise.

People think otherwise because Redfall being released directly contradicts this.

Will online be fixed in the patch today? so far out of 5 games I’ve found, 3 haven’t even loaded in to the first bounce, one disconnected after a goal was kicked and the other one after two was kicked.

 

[tastiger]

Well I didn’t wanna come back here but boy oh boy.

Fixes needed:

• the game is wayyyy too easy. I’ve used bad sides and beaten good ones by 200+ on the hardest difficulty
• handballs just aren’t worth using. Never hit targets
• shots on the run are guaranteed goals
• no stats
• no tactics
• can’t change player ratings or positions
• the AI cannot take a mark
• spoils way too OP for user
• interchange needs to be on full auto or it doesn’t work
• weird bug where your backs and forwards swap on the team sheet
• secondary rucks don’t play ruck at all
• every player plays the same
• if you win a clearance, mark that possession down as a goal
• tackling doesn’t work
• interchange/reserves list is one massive list and I didn’t know how to set the bench + sub

Positive notes:

• kicking game is fun, love transitioning the footy
• players look great apart from a few faces here and there
• animations are awesome
• crowd sounds are great
• commentary is solid and flows well

The state the game is in right now is worse than Evo 1 and 2 and Live 1 but a few fixes will boost it right up there.

So much potential here, just a huge disappointment.

Also I have not read any of this thread so i have no idea if these have been brought up and/or are being fixed at all

I agree with all this, well apart from the AFL evo part... On release they weren't good, well still aren't lol

facescanned? Did he not allow it or is it something that will come later on with one of the patches?
Thanks

 

[Dez!]

Who are you?

A bloke that doesn't throw random accusations at people.

Some players were unavailable for scans at the time

Free Kick Brisbane

Considering it's North that's pretty realistic tbh

One of those may have been me lol. Got pulled into a meeting.

will they eventually be scanned in?

 

[humey7]

Spoke to you how? He said nothing wrong, he’s constantly dodging questions and we’ve been in the dark for months.

No wonder he goes if his getting disrespectful comments like this.

If I was Ross and you spoke to me like that I'd probably be thinking go F yourself and give you nothing.

oke

183mb download on steam. Seems too small to be a patch tho

Dawg we can’t even play and your worries about the face scans

 

[Rowdoss]

I know its not the same, and its happening for different reasons...But...

 

[Cheifkeith95]

Have they patched it because I’m playing my first game it’s pretty good outside from handballs going anywhere

Try running the ball from one end to the other.

 

[humey7]

Never said he was? You are completely missing the point. He’s only answering 1/10 questions on big footy. I had to join just to ask and what about the people who don’t use it? Radio silence on all forms of social media apart from announcing the patch.
