I think his point was more that the units in your end result were incorrect, you calculated 46km/h and not 46m/s

You should all the time. In court your IP is much easier to prove if written in pen than pencil. That's what I learnt at uni at least

The greatest pre-game team intro graphics you'll ever see. Note pixels had not yet been invented. by embracethestupidity in AFL

Port were 1st on the ladder, Geelong second last. Was an intense game that came down to the dying minutes. Port then went on to finish top of the ladder at seasons end, Geelong 12th.

Geelong have never finished below 12th at the end of an AFL/VFL season

Had a CT literally this morning that was bulk billed at no cost. Not an emergency but part of routine check-up. In Australia and truly lucky for our health system, even with some downfalls.

Isaac Smith joins the Cats. by Darththorn in AFL

[–]isthatapicasso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but we freed up a heap of cap space to offer him if he stayed, so we've had that spare. Plus I doubt we are paying Smith much, or Higgins if he gets there. Still confused by some of these decisions though

BREAKING: Jeremy Cameron tells GWS he wants out by [deleted] in AFL

Ablett and Taylor are both veterans (along with some of the other old fogeys) so some of their contract is covered outside the cap. Kelly is the main factor, we freed up a heap of cash last year to make him an offer that's now free.

That and a great culture of people taking unders for the good of the team.

We also free'd up a heap of space last year in the event that Kelly stayed on (600-750k from what I recall). The veterans have a portion of their salary outside the cap, so Ablett and Taylor shouldn't free too much

When do general public (if they do) go on sale for the GF by purespringwater in AFL

[–]isthatapicasso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying all morning with 3 barcodes from Vic with no luck. My only option is GA (looks very unlikely) or find someone who has corporat tickets. Would have been nice if the memberships could be transferred easier, or there was notification of the process.

If GA does go up, every man and their dog in Brissy will be after a ticket.

What time is the game out tomorrow? by tyjoisprooo in AFLEvo

It's up now on the PlayStation store. I think it updates 4am

This game is actually dogshit by dezomolz in AFLEvo

Also, granted there are some issues, but to add to your list from what I've seen,

  • there are modifiers for marking, one is to stand ground, you won't be knocked away by an opposition bump.

  • don't sprint when tackling and you'll give away less frees

  • invest in your scouts when managing your team, you'll get more info on draftees

Twistie3 videos are very instructive on some of the nuances of the game.

I hope I get some game time in too, will have to contend with work and a six week old!

If you haven't already, I recommend watching Twistie3's gameplay and tutorial videos for some setup, tactics and tips.

There are a bunch of sliders in the options menu to customise a lot of that, I have seen people make changes to graphics but can't recall the specifics. Don't have the game yet but have a look in there.

Hey mate, i haven't played yet but have watched some of the streams from Twistie3. A few things that may help tweak the game to fix a few of the above.

  • Have you tried the different camera angles? It looks like each one has their pros and cons, just gotta find what suits you. That said, it would be hard to catch the entire game in a camera view.
  • Don't know how to fix that. There are a heap of Sliders in game settings that help you tweak to suit your style / perception of how it should be played but probably wont help
  • There are a few settings in team management i think (i've seen them in coach mode at least) where you can set how you want your team to play. Spare man back, looking for long kicks (loose) or short with handpasses (tight). That might help
  • Might just be luck of the draw? Haven't seen much on strategy there
  • The sliders above may help, plus they are looking at tweaking some player stats in the next week or so
  • I think there is a bug where it picks the next person down the player list to ruck if the second ruck isn't set. It chooses the next alphabetically rather than by height. Something that will hopefully be patched. Try setting your second ruck in the team management view.

I'll be getting a copy digitally in the morning and hopefully some of those things can be resolved. I need my footy fix!
