TRF Staff get hands on with Rugby World Cup 2011

[TRF_Olyy]

Bunching there but not as bad - mostly in the offensive team, defense keeps their line more


Lineouts are the same system as previously and most definitely ARE there




Foden just got binned for infringing at the ruck

tell me what Andrew Sheridan looks like, and his stats

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Big Ted was rated higher than Jenkins

Just lost as Samoa vs Getofmeland as South Africa
19 - 10

I like the tuning feels very natural, side step animation is slightly different but noticeable
Doesn't feel as stuck on, like not like your watching a video when it happens

I'm gonna go way out on a limb here and say that he possibly looks like Andrew Sheridan!

Olyy I love you right now. Orgasmical. Marry me?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wehey, my first win and as Namibia of all people
I really like the steal at the ruck - when they hit the ground x flashes up and first defender gets in and nicks the ball
Did it at the death vs The Mite to kick the ball out

Tuning = Running in my last post, damned autocorrect

can you tell me if the wales team has mostly licensed players that looks like the real life counterpart? also is henson in the squad many thanks if you answer my Q

 

[Draggs]

Sheridan rated higher than Geth?
I hope that it doesn't have the inflated English ratings of R08.

Looking forward to hearing more from the testing. Enjoy it lads!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

England are 86, Wales 83


No Henson unfortunately

You can change the player ratings though, remember.

Sounds like a good bit of fun you are having.
What rank are ireland in the game? like 86/87

 

[Getofmeland]

We are tweeting as you speak with things we are trying on the forum... So if you want us to try something out let us know...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Gotta say. I really like the scrumhalfs involvement - at the ruck instead if him running left or right and you watch, you press it and he gets the ball so if you don't start running he just gets nailed
Also the 8 running from the bqck of the scrum actually runs rather than just gets hit straight away

What are drop goals like?

 

[Rhyer]

How realistic is the gameplay? I keep hearing it is an improvement on Rugby 08 but that is good gameplay for the year 2008 on a PS2 and not a PS3, so you'd hope it'd be an improvement. How is the defence? I remember that it wasn't very spaced out in Rugby 08 and there were always holes in it if you just spread it wide. How are the offloads?

 

[Getofmeland]

Not 100% sure on the offload... but the general feel of the game is very good, we have had a couple of go's at drop goals, and creating the pocket and it seems to work really well, the speed of the game is very fast, but loving the breakdown, very good, very competitive...

 

[IRFU]

What are Ireland and Scotland's ratings in the game?

Thanks

 

[Getofmeland]

We are just trying the defence in wide now, it looks like the defence spreads out wide and create realistic gaps in the defence.

As in terms of player speed, you can tell the difference in terms of the wingers and a prop

Had to boot up my PS2 and give 08 a whirl, your making me so jealous!
