Still impossible to take quick shots at goal. The on the run meter is pretty good now and no issues with that, but by the time you collect the ball, your player actually registers they have the ball, and you power up a shot, you've been tackled 30 seconds ago
What if the set-shot aiming cross changes colour depending on the distance the player can kick? Depending how far youāre out from goal and the players attributes, could be red for too far out, orange/yellow for on the distance and green for good to go. Thoughts?I used the same power and same timing on both set shots and 1 made the distance and 1 fell short, because Tom Lynch has better kicking attributes (including power) than Cotchin, so I'm fine with the variance of the ball falling short based on that.
There isn't a on screen indicator to flag this and is probably more about knowing the players you are using as it stands now.
Would be interesting to see what some kind of indicator would look like though.
Thank you kind sir.
I agree, I would love to see the ability to watch/spectate the games rather be forced to play, a bit like or similar to Coach Mode in Madden. With also maybe an option to simulate via the Fixture alsoBigAntStudios hey Ross. First time writer long time viewer of this thread. The game is starting to play bloody amazing tbh. Already the best AFL game Iāve played. Idk if I have missed something on this thread but is there any plans for further development of management mode beyond the week to week play now style it currently has? Keep up the good work!
There's over 2500 posts on this thread. The last one had almost 10,000 and the one before that over 15,000. 95% of those posts are whingeing about absolute dribble, yet you're going to single out mine?
I think I have been patient. Over 6 weeks patient. I just asked a simple question about whether or not there was any information (official or otherwise) about the xbox release considering we're now in June (the revised timeline of the original revision).
At some point in the epic history of this thread, it was mentioned that stock needed to be at retailer warehouses 2 weeks out from release date. Even if scheduled for "mid June" that should be about now.

It wasn't though. I've already said, my EB Games message said it had a release date of early June.Nope. Place holder was late June.
Regardless if there is news you'll hear it. Sometimes no news is also news.
Found the CPU heat map.some flow to it. To increase the flow I sense some of the animations are played more loosely, with more ball teleportation, but okay at least it's playable.
Con = when the opposition scores, I don't always feel like I had control. The ruck -> centre -> wing -> CHF occurrence is still very frequent. The fact that marking and spoiling are almost complete guessworks doesn't help either. Also often controlling a player after losing a contest is awful. The player won't follow your commands. if I lose a contest I want that player to sprint back on defence but rarely do I find myself able to control that.

I absolutely understand the NDA's and contracts with retailers, however one of the things Ross did say on the topic was that the needs of consumers would also be considered. So far I've seen nothing that could be classed as keeping consumers in the loop.
Something like NBA2K with their 'simulate with simcast' option? it could be when simulating the matches, it has the option to simulate to the end of the match or simulate while watching the score worm moving and maybe can have options to jump in and play at the end of each quarter?I agree, I would love to see the ability to watch/spectate the games rather be forced to play, a bit like or similar to Coach Mode in Madden.

Travis Cloke would be so proud of this
Also I've seen Tom Hawkins shank some absolute easy goals (one was directly in front and he still managed to kick it out on the full!!)
Question is though, since I havenāt played the game. Can you go from a set shot to then changing your mind and going for the short pass instead? If you could do that based on whether the player can actually make the distance, that would be cool.Yeah I like this. Something that's obvious and intuitive. I don't know every player in the league, so if I'm playing a team I don't know very well I'm not going to know who can kick from 50m with no problem and who might struggle, but if the targeting thing is green I'll know I should make it if I time it well, but if it's red I should look for a short pass instead.

True, I wouldn't mind seeing that, but would still love to have an option to Spectate then have to control the team to make it more authentic. But maybe while watching CPU vs CPU, you could still pause and make subs and eventually tactic changes when required during the game as need for the team your controlling in Management mode.Something like NBA2K with their 'simulate with simcast' option? it could be when simulating the matches, it has the option to simulate to the end of the match or simulate while watching the score worm moving and maybe can have options to jump in and play at the end of each quarter?
Something I would like to be able to do is to simulate multiple games instead of 1 at a time, where I can simulate games using the fixture/calendar and only play certain games (e.g, play R1 then skip to R9, instead of playing R1 then manually skipping R2, R3, R4 until I get to R9 which takes time). I think there is something similar to that with season mode but not management mode.

Same here. Hopefully not too long now for usNo idea I'm afraid, I'm still waiting for the early/mid/late June Xbox version.
Michaels can you change from set shot to say a short pass once you are in the set shot screen?Question is though, since I havenāt played the game.

Is that you deliberately turning into goal or the animation forcing it?
At 3pm on a friday that's normal, for any game with a fanbase this sizeDamn 20min wait for an online game and counting, bug or dead af
