Looks good, though personally very disappointed to not see a "Be a Pro"/"My Player" mode.

Oh, and if this pic is from in-game, I'll go hee. Very cartoon-like.

Go hee then :) - it's from in game, and not from a cut-scene either!

Something very strange looking about it, but okay!

Good luck with this one guys :)

And seriously, give a Be a Pro/My Player option a thought.

I'm not huge on RL but I wouldn't mind taking a crack at this. Gotta support Australian developers after all.
 
Saw the MX newspaper screenshots, Will the storm jersey have the Crown sponsor or is it not allowed for some reason?
 
Screenshots look great. Slightly unrealistic though, there's never that many people in attendance at a game in Canberra ;)

Can't have them... no gambling, alcohol, etc.. in a G rated game.

That sounds about right, Same thing the NASCAR game devs have to deal with when it comes to Alcohol, Tobacco, Drug and Painkiller sponsorships on the cars.

Any chance of a fake sponsor on the jersey that visually looks similar to Crown but isn't, As to not level a giant blank spot in the middle of the jersey?

Royal, King or Monarch perhaps?

Hi ross is the game finished and you are just waiting for tru blu to announce the game before commenting more on the game or is the game still being finished off and hence why a release date hasnt been announced.

And in regards to securing all the teams you did was that an expensive option that you felt would in the end enhance the over all game and gameplay experience and would this be a viable option for the next afl game as using teams like the u/18 tac cup teams and state teams championships because you would have to secure player rights only the rights to the teams.

Speaking of NSW Cup, Can you confirm or deny the presence of an Illawarra team? or the ability to replace or edit a team in NSW Cup to be Shellharbour City Marlins/Dragons or Illawarra Steelers/Cutters. Just wondering.
im not 100 percent invested in all aspects of rugby league but i know that it was stated that all nrl teams,state teams,australian and new zeland national teams and recognised lower leagues.

i dont know if this is helpfull or not but i hope it was.
 


New trailer, looks like a massive improvement upon their first game :)
It's a fantastic trailer, the song is perfect as well, one of the better songs to sports trailers in a long time.

This picture here... wow just wow. Its unique too like the mud stains arent exactly the same on each jersey, the sweat etc. It may sound silly but its the little things like this that make me look forward to this.

Even the crowd looks decent

They better put this much effort into the visuals come the next AFL Live game.
 
Ross answers IGN users questions.

More questions at source, have put in the 2 best Q&A's though.

2010’s Rugby League Live, Big Ant Studios’ first attempt at the sport, sailed wide of the posts and fell flat with critics and fans alike. Nearly two years on the Melbourne-based developer is set to take another shot. We chatted to Big Ant founder and CEO Ross Symons about Rugby League Live 2 and what the team has done to hopefully send this one straight over the black dot.

IGN AU: What’s the first thing you decided to address from Rugby League Live in the development of Rugby League Live 2?

Ross Symons: The fans have made it clear that the first thing to be addressed for Rugby League Live 2 was to be the introduction of a deep Career mode, which of course Rugby League Live 2 has. At the end of the Career mode you can even save your created Career team and take them online to see who has created the best 10 year team.

IGN AU: How has online improved?

RS: We believe we have a first for sports games online; every game mode in Rugby League Live 2 can be played online. Competition, Casual and Career modes can all be played with friends. Every game either online or offline will win badges and experience points for players which will go onto leaderboards. Every aspect of the game has been tailored to online use.
 
Pretty impressive stuff regarding the online features.

Back to my "Be a Pro" obsession though, I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and assume that if RL Live 2 doesn't have one, then AFL Live 2 isn't looking great for one either. How about a simple player-lock feature? You still have the camera angles to contend with, but not too much else I wouldn't have thought.

Not a huge Rugby League fan, but I think I'll get this.
 
Can't have them... no gambling, alcohol, etc.. in a G rated game.

So that'd mean no Centerbet on St Kilda jumpers in AFL Live 2. That's a shame.

Anyway it looks good for it's technical details, but such is my lack of care for the sport itself that I probably won't be picking it up, but it's gotten me thinking about what could change for AFL Live 2.

Also I agree with Illnino, if there isn't a be a pro mode added, please at least put in a player lock system.
 
Sure does mate

Ross also got himself a 2 page interview with Game Informer this month (the one with BLOPS 2 MP reveal)

Thanks Glenno - can't wait for this game to hit the shelves....
