Multiplat AFL 23 - Part 2: Pro Team, more like No Team

[Kidneykid95]

Seems like patch notes are out already .. not sure how to feel about it.. thoughts??

ITS GONE LIVE ALSO! Just got it on PS5 = 1.7GB

 

[Michaels]

Live now to test the new patch!

 

[new0066]

looks like the player edits change affects the play now and season mode but not management mode (looking at Michaels stream)

edit: management mode has an option at the start which has a 'custom licensed content' on or off option that can use the edited stats but once you select it, you can't change it back later on

the 'custom licensed content' has a disclaimer saying that it may affect the intended way or something.

You're not a Bigfooty user if you don't start demanding things!!
I think a commentary line for the 50m penalty or an umpire audible call would be great!

There is definitely a commentary line for a 50m penalty

Never heard it when I tried it running through a mark (well the kick in)

Insufficient intent is in, that's great

I got a 50m commentary lines and have seen more insufficient intent being paid

Just an FYI, no ETA on the console patches as they’re being externally tested

Just to clarify, the wasn’t me wondering what external testing is, it’s that I’m surprised by the console patches being externally tested.

according to Ross,

editing player stats - management mode:

• "progression/regression will happen and screwing with the stats will effect your cap"
• "You will not be able to fit many players in if you are heavy with stats on a few - one of the reasons we didn't do it for balance"

general questions/answers

• the coin toss will change, will become shorter, and 'tosser' will change
• answering a question regarding plans for afl 25, 27 etc - ross said 'we plan to do many iterations
• there will be a dedicated direct place for Q&A and discussion - probably go live tmr

Back when I was in the industry, this meant testing by Sony themselves for approval.
It could also be testing by the publisher (Nacon).

It’s a strange one to have happened after so many patches already. I wonder if there’s an issue with BA’s own internal testing?

Added Nacon resources.

BigAntStudios would it be possible to allow manual interchange of players when auto-interchange is enabled?

I like auto-interchange doing most of the work for me, but every now and then it would be good to be able to jump into the pause menu and switch a few players around myself.

Absolutely agree

This. Especially with ruckmen/forward pocket players. One rotation and they never return to the original spot in all the games I’ve played

Keen to see the new tosser

All levity aside, stats editing that leads to cap will be similar to Live 1? Like how they had I think a 6.5 million dollar team cap?

 

[Michaels]

I'm giving this patch a tick!

50m penalties work very well.

run through the mark or protected area you get pinged.

insufficient intent is a free kick now too.

d pad tactics is good, would like to see kick out tactics added as a sub category under the defending bit though.

stats are editable

and i beat the pies with a 4 goal comeback, so thats a big W.

 

[Xtreme]

Get rid of the stuck in mud and teleporting, the game moves to 8/10.

Don't let us down BA!!

I'm liking the new penalties but I'm also going to have to play more careful now lol.

Sounds awesome mate! Any notable differences in player turning/handballing?

I'm finding handballing better. Either that or I'm finally getting the hang of it.

Still not fixed???

 

[Xtreme]

Teleporting no
Can't comment about the mud, I didn't play the game for long tonight.

But it's wild that the mud feeling was virtually gone toward the end of May. Then they had issues, rolled the game back and it hasn't been back to the mud free state in that time since.

 

[Michaels]

not that I could tell.

still a little bit of tweaking to be done to boots the feel of the movement / handball i reckon.

it's at a decent enough level to play, but some fine tuning will make it feel more complete IMO.

 

[Michaels]

video incoming on the editing of stats and how to put it in management mode as well as tactics.

 

[new0066]

Still not fixed???

there is definitely fewer teleport tackles but they do still occur.

Get rid of the stuck in mud and teleporting, the game moves to 8/10.

it's slowly getting better to the potential we know this game has. just need more stuff on management mode like an inbox, training or vfl etc and online to be fixed.

I think gameplay-wise, most of the errors have been somewhat fixed not 100% (probably 85-90%) but its at a good, playable level for me where i would now prefer to see management mode and online to be the main focus in the next patches.
