I'm not..

It's about the same for me on the run, but that's through practice.

Guess most of my misses in general play were wind affected... I'm doing the same things prior to the patch. Most shots are now either out on the full or just bounce inside before going out. If I'm dead in front in the goal square I don't miss.

I'll play later tonight and practice my running 50m bombs more.
 
Patch is good but obviously has created a few other problems such as season mode team selection issues.

Set shots being harder a massive tick for me. Was far far faaaaaar too easy previously.

Still not keen on the marking mechanics at all.

As a whole, a good patch taking the game in the right direction, even if a lot of the changes should have been in the game from the start.

I agree mate and I've also found that my players tend to kick it further now with less boost so I'm not needing to fill the bar right up if I'm within 30-40. If I'm too far out and at risk of shanking it I'll just hit up a short lead... Problem solved and imo adds to the realism.

Is there a reason I get 10+ holding the balls and push in the backs each game.

I am doing something wrong or is i just random. Because if it is it turns me off the game.
 
Yeah I've gotten a few push in the back calls where I pushed the player in the back........... yet instead of giving away the free kick.... I've won it. I'll take it even if it's a glitch lol.

Decided to start a pro career as a listed player and I picked Hodgie! Might pick Cyril, or Isaac Smith next. Hodge didn't just turn back the clock, he broke new ground 75 possessions!! I had 24 at qtr time (my aim was to then attempt to get at least 96). The wheels fell off in the second quarter, only had 8 touches. Should have kicked more than 17 goals, missed a few easy ones (meter goes too quick at the end for me now) that either went for a behind or out on the full.

Also went back to the be a pro camera view, first time since my first career season in the vfl (abandoned it pretty quick after a few games), actually playing better with it than the side to side view.
 
I wanted to nail the 72 possessions season objective..... in one match. Also had to kick 29 goals, which I had already just about reached prior to this match. The objectives that annoy me the most relate to tackles (don't have a defensive mindset in the game, unlike Fifa or NBA 2K its bloody hard controling just one player and guessing where the AI is going to take the ball when they have it). I can steal a mark in marking contests, I can get a lucky break (via a spoil or a stuffed up chick) and take the ball away. Tackling is not my strong suit in this game (can do it when controlling the whole team, it's just harder playing as one player). Another objective relates to intercepting the ball, I don't get many chances at that in games..... no matter the quarter length.
 
What camera is everyone using for be a pro? I can't seem to find one. I'm either only able to see one half of the field, or not see my player but cause the camera doesn't zoom enough to see it or he's in the off camera part of screen.
 
So i'm fairly certain that you can't take a speckie since the update, i'm sure many will be happy with that, but to have it completely gone. They put a lot of effort into the animations for it and the high grab looked kind of cool. Unless it's just become a rare feature.
 
Kicking meter is far too fast now. It's either half power or nothing. No chance of even getting close to full power without it being luck. Really should slow down depending in players kicking/goal shooting/stamina/distance etc..

Wicked witch also need to remove that auto magic riding of the bump animation. Far too often does the game do an automatic fend off and then I get pinged for holding the ball despite not actually having any opportunity to get rid of it.
 
I've found since the patch that the interchange commentary (and on screen on/off writing) is incorrect. It has the wrong player coming on and off
i.e The animation will show Darling coming off and Petrie coming on, where the commentary says that Petrie is coming off. Also says On: Darling, Off: Petrie, when it should be the other way around.

This combined with inability to change your line-up in season mode since the patch


Not really, just some commentary mis matches

I don't think it's too fast,haven't had any issues with the sliders, though i noticed its sped up a little, i think they've done it to make the game more fluid.

Has anyone else taken a speckie since the update?
 
It's way too fast. I was able to pretty much time a full powered kick perfectly. Now if I even attempt full power it's 100% guaranteed to overpower and go out on the full.

If you had a nintendo switch this wouldn't have happened
 
Very broad question, but overall does the patch make notable differences? I haven't played it still but will try find time soon as long as its somewhat playable now.

I disagree, I'm kicking well since the patch, don't know what to say to ya. But I haven't taken any big grabs yet.
