Any skill behind marking? Struggling to work this out.

A button to “corale” your opponent would be super handy, similar to what FIFA offers!

The description for R1/RB says "homing/pressure player". Think once working properly, this might be similar, if you don't tackle.

Edit:can't remember which button actually.

 

[tigerairau]

Nope. Fifty metre penalties and deliberate out of bounds don't even exist.

50m penalties do exist, I gave away 1 (somehow, no clue how)

BigAntStudios JNT BA new one for you on Steam: Papley marked inside 50, set shot mini game. Kicks the goal. Game called it out on the full. Camera gets stuck behind the goals. Brisbane kick in, straight to Papley who marks. Does the set shot mini game and soon as he kicks it, camera gets stuck behind the goals and the ball moves up the ground with no camera movement so I can't see

EA didn't see the value of a small market sport when they saw the sales for those games.

new patch supposedly comes out this evening (tho it was gonna come out at 2pm???

No, they said they'd release a road map of the fixes at 2pm, even though it took them until 5-6 to share that.

 

[Millky95]

Also now can't do ruck contests lol maybe NicNat was just shit

I have had that many players cross the mark, enter the protected zone, stand in line between the kicker and marker and yet nothing. gg

Pretty sure there's an actual bug reporting portal for things like this. Surely someone has the link somewhere.

Top of the page. Thought everyone else would enjoy the bug as well

Any word on ultrawide support? 3440x1440p here and the game is squished no matter what the setting is, UI elements are all fine.

 

[RU_]

Wasn’t having crashing issues but now I can’t even complete a game of management mode or seasons without crashing.

Eagerly hoping that patch hits overnight!

 

[Quivorir]

Come on, be real. Your implication was 100% that he shouldn't be doing anything like going to the footy in this situation.

Don't play dumb when your persistent negativity gets called out.

Mate it was a throw away comment hopefully leading to exactly what bouncer posted. Don't read into everything so much.

As I've said previously, I couldn't care less what Ross does.

 

[FearTheBeard13]

Anyone else copping a lot of chase down frees from the AI? In some cases its fair but theres times (especially around wing/flank) one of my players picks up a loose ball, is around nobody but will get chased down when there should’ve been adequate time to kick.

 

[Macca19]

Found Ross, and he's changed allegiances.

I thought that was Paul McCartney

 

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

I just wanna know if player attributes will be editable...

You can only put a custom player in a team when you make an editable copy, see if that allows attribute editing

I bet you couldn't. From all indications he and Big Ant live rent free in your head.

 

[freoman10]

What are we getting in tonight’s patch? And can anyone on steam stream it when it comes out so I know cheers

The typo in the headline is either ironic genius or it kills the joke a little.

 

[ice444]

Ill stream it as long as people dont laugh at my lack of skill
