I am happy to take constructive criticism but I won't cop the "it's shit" (quoting Glenno). To be clear, apart from the usual suspects, I have been the most negative on the game and tried to be upfront about what is in and out of the game.

There is no Be a Pro, No Franchise, sharing teams online, etc.. and I expect reviewers to call me on that and we will lose marks - totally fair and expected.

I am glad Number12 has seen fit to defend and align himslef with Jason Cartwright's "article", makes things a lot clearer for everyone.

EDIT: Sorry Ant - noted...
Just don't reply to him?
You've done an awesome Job Ross and I really hope there will be more versions to come.

ross and big ant have done a fantastic job. what a AFL game needed was great gameplay online and good graphics all those things are in the game. be a pro franchise and other stuff can come later it's not fifa at all it's better give the guy a break.
 
If the game doesnt get in thursday, that will mean most likely the following wednesday.

It could be a long easter.

That would be the worst thing to ever happen on Easter.

And yes, I am including the crucifiction.
 
With players like Pav and Goodes, can you chuck them chf, chb, rr and still have decent stats, seens as players like this can be played anywhere on the field?
 
Just saying...

I can't believe a new AFL game is 12 days away. I remember about 2 years ago reading this web page devoted to what people wanted in a new AFL video game. Some dude wrote all these idea's like "creating players and allowing them to go out and hit on chicks and get drunk and stuff," and I thought "oh my, there is no god."

Just saying, it's weird that we're so close.

Yes, players are rated for each position. I saw the system where if you sub out say, CHF, then in a column next to the player ratings column, there is the "adjusted player ratings". So, if your full back is rated 80, then in the next column it may say 65 or something.

Your utilities like Hodge, Pav, Goodes, Goddard etc will not have a large variation, possibly only sacrificing 2 or 3 points off their player ratings in each position that they are good at in real life.

Ross said that EVERY player has been rated in EVERY position so I'm sure these utilities will have good stats in multiple positions.

Goodes is CHF for the Vics and CHB for the Indigenous All Stars.
 
The CEO of BigAnt making condescending comments towards those not glowing with praise for the game - classy. Who's the "brain surgeon" again? Obviously you have trouble taking criticism. I can see you typing a lot of snide, condescending, defensive posts ala your response to Jason Cartwright's article, when the poor reviews come in. Have fun with that.

Hopefully in the next year or two you'll get the memo on what's required to make a decent AFL game, although judging by your attitude I won't be holding my breath.
I don't get your criticisms.

If you could make a better AFL game then please, go right ahead, I'm sure we'd all love to play it and give our ideas of it afterwards.:rolleyes:

Your last comment is absolutely hilarious...Ross has got the memo and has made a decent AFL game. Yes it lacks features, but who's the person that's telling us that? Ross! He's not sugar coating the game by saying this will have everything you've ever wanted and be so feature packed the game barely fits on the disc.

This is a basis for which future versions will be built on and from what I can see they have started by getting the biggest feature (and still again the feature that EVERYONE stated was all they wanted to be good before the game was announced and not long after) to be the best and that is the gameplay.

The game definitely will be ready for the 21st - the disks have been pressed.

Haha wonderful news!

Question to the general public: Would it be rude to miss my cousin's wedding on the 23rd after the game comes out? We're not THAT close. :p
 
Now I know there is no ingame online sharing of rosters but will it possible for example on ps3 to save the roster file to USB and then share it over the net, like in pro evo soccer?
 
Congrats!

I'm sure some desperate 12 year olds would be more concerned about getting a copy of AFL Live though than your little one.

I'd say most people are more 'concerned' about the game than Glenno's kid. Sure, I wish him the best and all, but out of the two, I will certainly be thinking about AFL Live more than some dude's wife giving birth.

Where did you go H? Paging you to the Deus Ex thread for an explanation please.

This would be sweet. Would be cool to have VFL teams etc if some could make them and share them
 
Just a couple of questions

1. Will there be dynamic weather( ie overcast with on and off showers during the game) ?

2. Ross mentioned earlier in the thread that in the bounce was killed was this just for the gameplay tests or was the random bounce removed all together ?

3. Will we have the ability to tap the ball infront of ourselves instead of picking it up off the ground ?

Thanks in advance to anyone who may answer any of the questions.

1. Almost certain that this is not the case.

2. The gameplay tests were the final game except for a few infringements (running over the mark etc) turned off. The bounce isn't totally killed, it will be quite random at times, but is slightly nerfed in comparison with real life.

3. No. That's one to add to the "a cool feature to add to the depth of the gameplay but is not essential for a first version" list.
 
If the disks have been pressed, why can't the game be released this coming Thursday(14th)

It takes time for the shipping of the disks, then assembley and then Individual shipments out to the stores.
