BigAnt Studios to develop AFL Live 3 - Petition

I think the thing is - SURE AFL is bigger in Australia than NRL. However there are several countries who play Rugby League and would buy the game. Not a lot of places overseas know what AFL is.

That's why I reckon that there should be an AFL/Gaelic game that are licensed to both competitions. So it can sell well in Ireland and Australia. And with AFL growing in New Zealand it could sell well there too.

I'll go see Seb next time i'm in Sydney and I'll try get something sorted. He probably won't listen to a 20 year old kid but it's worth a shot eh?

I just wish the AFL gave a shit. Clearly they don't and that's very depressing.

Would anyone in here be keen to join me at AFL House? The plan is to go there and speak to their media/marketing manager and express the hatred for Wicked Witch and try get them to do something about it. We have plenty of stats to back us up (with matches played with online gaming)

Dobz I love the cut of your jibe but have tried unsuccessfully several times to get a response from the AFL on this issue. And this was using the nice guy approach, I didn't even complain as such. But nothing after three or four attempts. I imagine if we rock up to the AFL we will get fobbed off. But if you take this approach I wish you every success.

Probably our best bet is for a large group of us to get at them through their Twitter or their FB page (if they have one). That way everyone sees there is an upset customer group and they have to act in a positive manner, even if it's just another brush off dressed up as fake concern. If you want to go down this path maybe we can start the conversation here. We'll probably need the support from aflsquad's HUB group or similar to get the numbers we need but I of course cannot suggest anyone's willingness to participate in any way (aflsquads may offer a view here).

I'm an admin of the HuB :) - Also a friend of mine got to go into AFL House about Flag sizes at matches. All we have to do is call them up or go in and see them at the front desk and arrange an interview. I think it can work. Also while I'm doing that I'll make sure I go to Tru Blu a few times to keep trying to convince Seb.

Ah great stuff. Sounds you've got a bit of cut-through on your side. Sorry I didn't know you were a HuB Admin. Whatever you do good luck & sorry I'm not proposing to join you in the trenches right now. But better to be upfront than be full of enthusiasm & then not be around at meeting time.
 
it's also a good point to raise that kids are turning to soccer as they have a new FIFA game to play each year & they are bloody good games to play. i liked AFL Live 1 & got FIFA '13 and they are chalk & cheese. i know they are different games but FIFA has been refined over a couple of decades at least and it shows. as said above, AFL live 1 was a decent platform to build a series from. add a career mode, ability to tweak the fixture each year to the real one and we have ourselves an even greater game as you can already tweak player lists.

I know many people who have become a lot more interested in soccer for this very reason.

Dobz, keep it up man. I would love to join but I live in QLD. You are the leader/front-runner in this campaign. Good luck dude!!
 
AFL Live 3 Rumors:
•AFL Live 3 to be released on next-gen consoles (Xbox One & PlayStation 4).
• Sources closes to AFL Gaming believe we could see a press release announcement in 2015 and a release date around the time of Round 7 of the 2016 Toyota AFL Premiership Season.
• Dennis Cometti and Tom Harley look like doing another round of commentary for AFL Live 3.
• An Exclusive Edition of AFL Live 3 will be available (Rumored 'Captains Edition') with early unlocks. Indigenous Guernseys are rumored to be one of the unlocks.
• An undisclosed source has told AFL Gaming that Big Ant Studios are trying to get the rights for AFL Live 3.
• Dribble kicks to be added in AFL Live 3 due to popular demand.
• AFL Live 3 will be a simulation and realistic as possible, it will not play like an arcade game. The game will be totally different than AFL Live 2 and more like an advance version of AFL Live 1.

Well this is good to read. Of course it means nothing at the moment and it's just rumors but it sounds promising.

Those rumors do sound very good. Let's just hope they are all true.
 
I think Big Ant know that if they are given the green light they'll develop something pretty special. I think they know this.

That site is just a fan wish list. I'd be willing to bet that none of those are true, apart from the dead obvious things like that it will be on consoles and will use the exact same commentators.

Yes - pretty sure this is a wish list. Sadly I think the BA tweet of 'don't get your hopes up' is the best update we'll get any time soon.
 
I'd love to see a poll of some sort on big footy as to how many people played AFL Live 1 would be quite a few!

Especially with the new gen consoles out, there would be a new crowd of customers to market too as well as the regulars gamers from the last release.

Sad that such a massive sport over here can't generate a title that can be built and tweaked each year like the EA Titles. To be honest I'd only want one company making the games for us and that would be Big Ant. These guys built that first engine and designed a truly impressive game that we would all be dreaming about what the 2015 version would look like had it kept up with a yearly release.

Awareness needs to be raised on here guys. Possibly we can all add something bright and sparkly in our Sigs that maybe point to this topic and generate more talk!
 
right guys, I've just messaged the guys @ Big Ant regarding their movements for a possible license of AFL Live 3.

Click HERE and shoot em off a MSG, be it short or whatever you wanna put. Just inquire, you never know what we might hear back. Get enough people bombarding them to atleast get some sort of indication!
 
We've been "bombarded" off and on for years now, it's nice to be wanted :)

I love Footy and go every week and we have ongoing business with AFL Clubs doing their game analysis however the future development of AFL Video Games is not up to us.
