Patch 2A is HERE! Say goodbye to the days of benchwarming, ill-timed marking, unrealistic trading and grand finals at the University of Tasmania.
Not denying the wrong ground glitch didn't happen (heck it happened a few times in my Hawthorn coach career). But as a created player pro.......... my home ground for Brisbane was always the Gabba and I always played at the proper away grounds of teams. The only exception to that was the special event games (eg: Ballarat v North Melbourne).
Do you think they tested the patch before releasing it?

Played it for 10 minutes, AI is yet to miss. 6 goals straight.
Slight concern
Slight concern
not for me, AI is about 60/40...probably depends on who is kicking for goal and their stats, the weather, the ground, the game settings and so forth.

Yeah. They've missed one since I posted.
Was just concerned that the super accurate AI from AFL live 2 was back.
Makes the game quite a bit better but still isn't the best

I never found the goal kicking that bad. I simmed a few games in season mode last night and many were in the 20 goals and single digit behinds range

some obvious first impressions...
marking is a better system and the power up kicks are quicker and more reactive, goal kicking is more even and there seems to be a nice flow to the game now..
a side note, i kicked 3 grubber goals from the boundary and jumped up in the air to celebrate...

Where did you see this?
Can someone show me how to tag Wicked Witch? Just downloaded the patch and the one thing I was hoping would be fixed still isn't.
In player manager mode in edit player if you try to copy/duplicate an existing AFL player to fix their appearance/attributes it creates a copy of the name, attributes etc but their appearance is a new bald bloke. Only happens for a couple players per team e.g Gawn (see pics below)
Also if someone has a chance and can see if this happens for you too that'd be great. Tex Walker is another example.

Advantage period may have gone too far the other way. There was a free kick I gave away in the middle, the other team went forward with the ball, were about to kick a goal then I ran them down around 50 metres from the original free and it got called back. Anyone else agree?

I just checked, Geelong still play home games at the Gabba in my existing My Career, but when simulating to the next season in a new career, this is no longer the case. Massive bummer, but you do indeed have to restart your career if you want these fixes.
I'm fairly certain that's because they've been face scanned
So probably due to legal reasons they can't allow you to alter the real player face photos or some alteration might cause the face scan to stop displaying properly
Oh really? I don't even want to edit their face scans
Mainly just their player ratings so the original ratings can stay and each team can have a secondary team with more updated/realistic ratings
