[QUOTE="lionmaull, post: 646032, member: 48180"] I think/theory is they will release Rugby 2014 in October/November but then will release a World Cup Game (game of year edition) for World Cup 2015. Use the same technology to capitalize on 2 games or release paid for downloadable content later. Hopefully this mean they want to make a very good showing in Rugby 2014 to convince us to buy a World Cup game later or buy the download for it. It seems like this type of Model has worked for the Rugby League Live games. My biggest concern are the rucks. (Please (HB do not dum them down for us or make them automatic 3 men in a ruck). The idea Rugby Challenge 2 had for Rucks is good, it just needs some polishing and a little better application. Make the players color coated(maybe the player indicator) and let us decide if we want to quick bind (add backs) or (heavy bind) add forwards) or combo of those (depending on the situation you could send a back into a ruck if the forwards are to far away). The backs could unbind faster. Have an actual individual player stat for rucking with better rucking and contesting the ball the stats would help determine a better chance to steal and less chance to get penalized. The animation for tackling and getting back on your feet to contest the ball must be part of the game, (Sidhe got so little credit for this), the ability to hold on to the ball and an individual stat for this if your isolated (Sidhe did this as well for those of you who haven't noticed), the implementation of this was fairly good, now just have an actual stat for getting away with this holding, or placing the ball to your advantage skill :). And increase rucking and scrum penalties they are such a big part of Rugby. (Have an Arcade mode for those who don't want all this , less penalties, automatic rucks if you must adhere to the casual gamer as well). Cheers and Salud [/QUOTE]
