tell you what, the ignore feature is an absolute ripper for this thread!
That's a good point, they clearly have some kind of server side DRM and will need something for pro team.
Wouldn't get your hopes up on dedicated servers for multiplayer though.
Yeah I’m guessing P2P.
Would be interesting to see side by side footage of a single game from each person’s perspective.

I've never really played cricket online but used to absolutely smash AFL Live online. That always ran really well, especially considering I was on ADSL2+ which topped out at a brisk 4Mbps back then.
Had to lol about "always finding a match" must depend on time and place, I had a go before... while I gradually did get into 2 matches...... it was a long wait for the first one to pop up 
. And then this:
The setup of the game (selecting teams, loading to the ground, coin toss etc) took longer than the match itself. It was literally ruck contest (which I lost), I regained the ball just outside of the center square, begin to take the ball forward.... then that connection loss screen. And the win/loss still hasn't countered to my leaderboard total
I did have another game Brisbane v Collingwood. I'd say that the opponent controlled the ball well ALL game, but didn't take their chances in the first half. Whereas, when I got to go forward.... I made it count. However the bad connection kicked in, during the second half. Barely touched the ball at all, while the opponent teleported everywhere and belted me by 7 goals (after I carried a 2 goal lead into half time).

The game shares clunky movement with a more high profile title - GTA V. Both gave similar controls (watching your controlled player do a quarter circle movement instead of direct to what you really want to.move toward.

Played a lot of GTA V on Xbox and can't say I have ever really had any issues.

This gives me the shits. Sometimes I’ve got 3 players around the ball and somehow neither of them pick it up because of the clunky movement. Also the amount of time it takes to get a shot off is ridiculous; getting a shot off when the ball is pinned inside 50 is almost impossible.
Is anyone else a little perplexed at the lack of variations in tackling and marking animations?? Didn't AFL Live even have a leading chest-mark??
if there is one criticism about the game, it's that and the gameplay refinement just isn't there yet. You don't feel like you really control the ability to mark as a lot of it comes down to how tall a player is and their player rating too. However you do feel like you have more control over a defensive interception or knock ball away, so maybe marking isn't meant to be that easy.

Have you tried the quick charge shot button ?
I have this issue with normal shots but I always forget the quick shot option they added.

It's something I have to give credit to Evo 2 for. The variation of animations can still surprise me to this day. I just saw this low slip catch of a mark for the first time the other day

The GTA games have never had the best movement controls - manageable at times yes but far from perfect.
I had a few situations last night while playing V which were AFL 23 - LIKE.
Does this relate a bit to what GoldbergsGold talks about with ‘weight’ to player movement?
I.e they shouldn’t be able to turn on a dime, but also shouldn't have a turning circle of a semi-trailer.
Wondering what the happy medium would be, with being in control versus realism.
I think FIFA has slower turn animations and such that make this feel more realistic.

I don't know why they thought the marking contests should always be glued on front facing wrestling with zero ability to twist, turn or pull out of the wrestle or to not engage in the wrestle at all.

eFootball does this best, where every player is weighted. AFL 23 has players completely weightless rushing at you with super speed, when you're commanding the user controlled players to move but they simply don't. Evo 2, Evo 2, Live 2, Live 2011, etc never had any user control issues to that extreme. 23 did implement sliders to slow everything down, but the CPU players stop pressuring for some reason, and the kicking/handballing meter is completely broken.
they should just release the platforms that are ready
Considering a user name change?

5 weeks since submission. Joke!!
absolutely
Would it be safe to assume the only reason this hasn't been approved is because its broken?
Seems a familiar story with this game unfortunately.

I'm honestly surprised they're still "supporting" the game.
