[QUOTE="dan-the-man, post: 459593, member: 50929"] I really love this game for the following reasons: 1) Compare the amount of players there are in comparison to RWC 2011! That game has 20 teams of 30, and thats it. This game has tons of teams and squads upto 50! I don't know about you guys, but that was my main thing I was keen for with the next rugby game (so you can imagine my disapointment when I spent R600 on RWC, and I'm only a student who works part time as a coach). This game has players that most people haven't heard of and I love it! It makes playing the competition modes sooooo much better, and I sincerely want to thank Sidhe for clearly putting in a decent amount of effort into the rosters. To the lazy assholes at HB, go die in a hole! Those rosters must have taken you lazy shits 5 minutes to complete! 2) Lots of competitions to choose from, including taking the initiative of adding the Quad Nations, which will make the game still cool to play next year 3) The offload mechanism is epic! 4) There are 5 difficulites 5) You have those special features to unlock with Rugby Dollars, which gives incentive to keep playing. 6) In general you guys clearly care about the consumer and put in a nice effort to make a good game, which is MUCH more then I can say for those criminals at HB! God I hate them so much!!!! There are of course quite a few problems I want to adress: 1) The commentary is horribly unrealistic! Justin Marshall said something like "We await the kick-off for the second half" and Nisbett says "That's right Justin". Okay I guess that technically makes sense, but that is so badly unrealistic! 2) Defending - this is my single-worst aspect of the game. Defense is incredibly hard and often out of your control. No matter how well you tackle, they always offload to someone and often break through the first defender, and sometimes, close to the line, conceding a try is unavoidable, which gets incredibly frustrating! In one-on-ones, the guy normally runs right around you and when you dive for him you fall well short! It's really made it much less enjoyable for me! 3) No set plays. Sidhe, come on....how are we supposed to do drop goals if we can't put our fly-half in the pocket? Come on guys! That was a shocker! 4) Back-line formation. Most of the time you are passing to forwards from the ruck, and when it's a back, it's hardly ever the number 10. 5) The amount of passes to no one. Really rashing how often this happens, even when i've got like 3 guys in support and I throw a pass at the perfect moment and somehow it still goes behind him. 6) No kicking distance attribute.
