Yep, I had to ditch a few more experienced players. I guess I could have gotten rid of Fev, as he is pretty expensive (around $400K), but I just had to have him in there.
It tells you when you breach the cap that you can't play online. A team also cannot be used in a custom comp when the cap is breached (have just tested this). Any custom team that is NEW (ie. if you make GWS, a state of origin side or your local footy side), the cap is $7 mil. EXTREMELY small and you will have a shit side.
Any custom team that is a CURRENT AFL side (ie. you edited one of the 17 AFL teams), the cap is $10mil. Much more viable for competing.
There will be no way to make a SOO side and have them in a comp, it seems. Even if you select a best 22 and fill the remaining 18 spots in the squad with the cheapest possible players (which would have to be a custom player, which is a smidge under $100k with lowest possible attributes and height), that's still around $1.8mil from your cap spent. Only $5.2mil remaining for 22 good players. They would have to average out at $230K-$240K per player, which is not enough to get the players you want. You're stuck with exhibition, I'm afraid.
Yeah. It kinda works. Not sure how though. Thought it may be salary, as Pavlich was made SA captain and Sandilands WA captain. But Bradshaw is like 3rd highest paid on Sydney's list in the game.
Yeah, custom teams will be very low in rating. Probably the way to go is mod one of the existing AFL sides as they seem to have more wiggle room. But not sure what the finite rules are. No one seems to be online to play (and Ross has no more room for friends!).
Yes. They get a value which is based on their attributes (marking ability, speed rating, etc), and their height. The cheapest player, from a bit of testing appears to be $97,562. All attributes are at their lowest setting (30/99) and their height is the shortest (170cm). Weight or age doesn't seem to affect value.
Cheers. Tackling is pretty much the entire game.
And handball. Yes, and I believe also for custom competitions offline. As stated, I made WA, SA and Allies SOO sides that are WAY over the cap and I can only use them in exhibition. Yet I made GWS under the online cap and was able to use them in an offline custom comp.
Seem generically the same. Stadiums full. Something they can probably work on in future versions. They are blurred somewhat during closeups so you don't see them really well. Just seem like a big mass. They do rise when a goal is kicked, which is cool.
Yeah, Ruckwork is really good... except I cannot figure out boundary throw-in timing. One of my few weaknesses.
Marking is tough, particularly when your opponent knows how to spoil (which is probably too easy in one on one contests). I'm starting to use the targeting system, which is cool but tough to get a hang of. Once mastered, you'll basically be on par with the difficult AI settings.
BEST part of the game!
Yes.

Only if they are an edited current AFL side. As above, they have a $10mil cap. Custom teams created from scratch have a $7mil cap (ie. they are pointless).
i think its brilliant they suck lol
(they are giving me a red hot go as opposed to collingwood in a match though)

If you don't like what he has to say, why can't you just ignore it and not reply?
Really enjoying the game, love how the momentum swings. Only playing 3 min atrs and keep getting to 4 goals, just can't burst through that 5 goal barrier (with 1 player)
Have you noticed any difference in the way teams play in the game?
Is Essendon a lot more fast paced than others?

Thank you, that's very helpful.
You have quelled my main fear about custom teams. All I want to do is fiddle with a few attributes in the AFL teams. Nothing drastic. It doesn't seem like that will put me over the cap though which is good
havent noticed to be honest - doesnt mean its not there
actually collingwood did seem to use the wings a lot so yeah maybe

There are some simple tactical options available, such as width of ball movement. It would have been simple to have different tactics selected for different teams then. Whether or not those tactics do much though is a different issue.
na not yet i havn checked if its out,
but i will 2morrow.
Unless I am utterly blind the thing that has annoyed me about this game is that there is no manual instant replay, it is only the replays they provide you after the goals. It is a bit disappointing seeing as though EVERY sports game has this.
actuallly yeh bombers are killing me through the middle
pricks beat me lol

At least you're not winning every game. Would get bloody annoying and boring personally.
Ochre
:o

Does anyone remember the site for the pics of the player salary caps?
Damn that sucks. Even FIFA on iPod touch has a manual replay. (it only replays like 5 secs though). I bet most of the stuff I want to see replayed in the game won't be.
ive played 2 NAB cup games and won 1 lost 1
ive played 4 season games and won 2 lost 2

What difficulty are you on grrofunger? I remember struggling with the basic difficulty when I played at JB with very little experience. It was the second easiest I think.

Doesn't look like there is much spread amongst the players. Moloney, one of our best players, is 237k but some duds like Strauss are 210k.

Awesome, very happy with this. I know a lot of people have custom team aspirations but I was really dreading going online and seeing a bunch of teams with superstars abound.
Great to see this will not be the case.
Oh and was the GWS logo and guernsey thing meant to be in 'the bad'?
I have honestly not once ever thought the game lacked pace when you sprint. I've on numerous occasions got away from a pack or player using it and I definitely know if I wasn't sprinting I would've been caught.The best commentators in real life don't talk much.
Given you didn't know how to take a set shot at goal, I'll take your sprint inability with a grain of salt
The very first time I played the game I noticed how lumbering ruckman were while the mids zipped around the place.
Again things like this can't be taken from regular looks at what you're thinking the game is doing. Prove it, go to the training, get someone else a controller, line both players up with the same stats (or completely end of spectrum stats) and start running with one sprinting and the other not and THEN tell me that sprint clearly doesn't work.
I mean grro you talk about the whole 'it's hard to do anything but handball in a 1 on 1'. Have you watched footy? Honestly how many times does someone just break away and piss off from their opponent unless they have clear right of way? It's generally a situation where they'll have to get a handball or kick off to whoever or wherever they can.
Nobody is annoyed at people picking faults, but they have to actually be there to be called a fault or bug. Come on people.
Have you actually gone back and proven this to be true?
My take: Because the night of these matches isn't over after the first match there is no use for the game to instantly tally up the % (as I doubt is done IRL either). So once 1 team has completed both games, it then tallies it up.
You see how a 'bug' can actually be mis-construed as being something that the game is just doing as it was programmed when you go off so ****en hastily?
It's like complaining about the game without even knowing how to take a set shot at goal ffs.

Defend your love child HBK, defend it!
yes HBK - if a team wins its first game to NIL - the percentage will be 0
it means nothing anyway - cos the points in the background carry over and contribute to the percentage in the next round
so its no big deal really and i can see how from a programming perspective this would come about
its so minor it wont affect anything - i had a very sandy vagina when i wrote about it
ive just posted my (i think) balanced review of this game in the post release feedback thread after day 1 of playing
