BA shot themselves in the foot with the promises and big time talk that went on prior to it actually being released.The choice is put up with this mess with BA or go without a game for a console generation or two.
The red flags were all there from day one guys. I have zero sympathy for anyone that bought the game.
Honestly, I wish I was like you and saw Ross for who he is from day one. I blame the Rose-tinted glasses from AFL Live 2011...The red flags were all there from day one guys. I have zero sympathy for anyone that bought the game.
Exactly... And the only reason he probably did that was because he so desperately wanted to make himself look like the AFL Gaming God and wanted to make everything that came before him look like crap because of everything that happened 10 years ago. This was not a passion project of love, This was a passion project of spite and it shows. If they actually cared about having this stuff in the game, They would have taken their sweet time to get everything right and released it when it was fully ready. Not rushed it out like this.BA shot themselves in the foot with the promises and big time talk that went on prior to it actually being released.
Ross set it up to be the greatest AFL game ever and then when it was released, it was literally the exact opposite. Since day 1 of release BA have had to play catch up yet have still not caught up. BA have still not provided what exactly happened which to me could mean a few things, someone is to blame and they won't admit it, it was not properly tested prior to release, the initial patch completely tore away layers of code etc. and leaving the turd that was playable.
The biggest mistake Ross made was over-promising and then under delivering. It will always leave a sour taste in a consumers mouth when they feel lied to.
Theyāve dished one out now, would think itās gonna be hard to say no to others if they have the same argumentsI saw this also. Safe to say Sony may be onto the shemozzle that is this game.
Ross-tinted glasses if you will.I blame the Rose-tinted glasses from AFL Live 2011...

You can use that post as an example of it being refunded.Theyāve dished one out now, would think itās gonna be hard to say no to others if they have the same arguments
I thought when he went after WW and their ex-employer that meant they were really going to not only match Evo 2 on the basic mechanics, but exceed it 100+. Went backwards 100,000+.BA shot themselves in the foot with the promises and big time talk that went on prior to it actually being released.

Id be astounded if Nacons higher ups would be happy with Ross going on public forums abusing his consumers, pretty counter productive business model lmao, highly likely they've done a houdini to their own site forum under a directive.Agree there - there was a lot of talk and bugger all show. Keep it under wraps, keep expectations low, then people can build their opinions/fantasies on what they actually see. A life lesson that we've all been through - teenage Palmomagpie texting the ladies saying "come watch me play I'm good", lasses show up to my match and I get 1 touch and a torn hammy. Nacon appear to have put the clamps on now - fingers crossed they've had some sort of media advisor get involved and start working on not damaging PR anymore
Surely the onus is on the developer to set realistic release dates and give themselves enough time to get a game to a sufficent standard.AFL needs to take some of the blame for the debacle
Theyāve Clearly wanted a 2023 release, you arenāt getting a polished new iteration of the sport with 2 years of development
How do you know that? Live 2011 was delayed a year.AFL needs to take some of the blame for the debacle

I'm curious to know alsoAnyone play the latest steam patch yet? Any gameplay improvements hidden under stability? Surely/hopefully something improved since the last patch.
I brought up putting AFLW into this as a red flag but hey all that got was a plethora of abuse from a bunch of white knights so some of them got what they wanted really. An AFL game missing a load of features on release shipping with an apparently must have feature that 99.5% of them won't ever use.
Xbox says August now on EB so I dunno, I'm thinking I'll never get the chance to buy it anyway.
How is the AFLW a red flag? An AFL game should have both menās and womenās. I donāt think having the Womenās game is what made the game badI brought up putting AFLW into this as a red flag but hey all that got was a plethora of abuse from a bunch of white knights
AFLW was not a red flag. Wicked Witch were able to incorporate it seamlessly. The red flag was the company making the game thinking it was for the best to not show gameplay, not explain mechanics, not host play sessions, come up with a shiity delay excuse, and having a CEO that trolls consumers.I brought up putting AFLW into this as a red flag but hey all that got was a plethora of abuse from a bunch of white knights so some of them got what they wanted really.

Been checking out this guy's stream when he's playing AFL 23 over the last few weeks, not sure if he scripts his matches but he seems to allow them to get a bit lead, then he'll work on the comeback in the second half (or the final quarter). He's getting good at kicking the winning score in the last 10 seconds of the game!
