Thurston_Cowboys_FTW · 01-08-2010, 11:31 PM

U got the thurston part right mate

Newelijah · 02-08-2010, 06:13 PM

Will most likely create my whole team from created players and make up a super club with lockyer, thurston, inglis, slater, cam smith, gasnier etc on the same team so that team will be like a more improved Melbourne lol.

I use to do that on RL1 and RL2 just for the challenge and also made it at the toughest difficulty for the ultimate challenge.

I have preordered mine from Game and cant wait for the game to come out.

Gonna be an expensive couple months for me with NFSHP and GT5 also due in November(at the moment anyway).

Shadlow! · 02-08-2010, 11:55 PM

i've got faith in this game

im just hoping the players dont turn like trucks like they did in RL2

$108 is a little bit much tho haha

Upupcronulla · 03-08-2010, 12:00 AM

Doesnt need to be expensive.... Bigw $88.00

ozzyguy87 · 03-08-2010, 12:30 AM

cant wait to play it doesnt matter how good it is its just gunna get better and better

Upupcronulla · 03-08-2010, 12:34 AM

yeah i can live with certain things missing cos it is rugby league on a console... but if the creators take us for idiots then i will have a problem...

im ok if the graphics are not up to what we would like, but GAMEPLAY RULES AND PHYSICS HAVE TO BE GOOD

ozzyguy87 · 03-08-2010, 12:35 AM

yeah tru i hope it is cant wait i read an artical there going to make five of them so hopefully they take what the fans say and use it in the game lol

Upupcronulla · 03-08-2010, 12:40 AM

5 games is what concerns me...

i mean... dont put all your eggs in the first basket... bleed it for all you can.

Madden is a great example, they are good enough game makers to make the mother of all games once... but instead add a feature every year to make us buy them over and over.

RLL could do the same... but they must be careful... if the first one is really bad... and i mean really bad for a next gen console peopel will not buy the next version with other great games on offer. I know my games money does not extend past 2 games a year due to other commitments not to mention time constraints to actually play it and get value for money. Each to their own i suppose but dont P*** off the consumer... currently they are.

St.Helens Fan · 03-08-2010, 12:41 AM

I think the most annoying part on behalf of the UK users, and I speak for all of us. The fact that the statement said the 2nd September, but for us we can't pre-order it anywhere.

I doubt any of the companies over here that sell games, actually know that it is coming out. Which ... is rather shambolic. As I said the other day, at least Mario and Sidhe keep us updated regularly.

Radman · 03-08-2010, 12:46 AM

That gets me, you guys can't even go into your stores and put money down that you want to spend on it?!. That is ridiculous. Should have had that sorted by now.

ozzyguy87 · 03-08-2010, 12:49 AM

yeah u guys should have i just hope it comes out sep 2nd my first yarget smash jarryd hayne lol

dogs2010 · 03-08-2010, 08:47 PM

ok the stupid thing is i understand that everyone on here including me wants good graphics. what we do need to understand rugby league is no the worlds biggest sport. if it becomes bigger hopefully ea will jump onboard and make it which will be great, but at the moment we have an australian and new zealend company making it and they are producing the best they can

savvart · 04-08-2010, 04:20 PM

I'm really not interested in the graphics for this first effort.

I hope the gameplay is fun and enjoyable. Like it was with ARL 95 way back when...

The graphics in that game were very ordinary but the commentary and gameplay - passing, kicking and tackling were excellent...

Here's hoping its not like that rubbish RL2. Well I played it on PC and it was atrocious.

Newelijah · 06-08-2010, 11:44 AM

It will be interesting how Big Ant go, we havent got the same level of info that we are use to with Sidhe which is annoying but I think we will have to just wait on the final product before we can compare them with Sidhe's.

LOL Big W, the idiots only put about 5 copies on the shelf and are sold out within 5 mins! I remmeber when RL2 came out about 30 of us were lined up outsdie the door and had to roll under the door when it opened and run to get the games.. I got the last PS2 one that day in epic morning, will NEVER do that again just to buy a game Id rather pay the extra cash then wake up early to run for a game

Slopehead · 07-08-2010, 05:01 PM

Can you only play this online or can you play single player to like full season etc?

Radman · 07-08-2010, 05:15 PM

You can play both single player and online with multiple players as well as play a full season.

I love your thinking mate, however i dont think we are going to get the "complete" game we are all hoping for. Ill be happy to be proven wrong and im actually happy we are getting a NRL game on next gen, its been to long and im over subbing other sports to try and get the same satisfaction.

In regards to where you are going, you have a valid point and custom plays is 100% possible. Fifa 10 displays this with its custom set peice tool. For those who havent seen or played it, it gives you free reign on players lines during dead ball situations in DIFFERENT sections of the pitch. You can save upto 4 set peices for each section of the pitch. You create these custom set peices in the main menu and my way of thinking is that this could some way be intergrated into Rugby League. After all, you would control the passing so essentially you would only need to edit the lines the players are running.

For me, the graphics that have been released thus far look ok...they still have a few things to fix (jerseys and size of the ball). The thing that scares me is that this game is due out in less then a month and HES know there has been a huge demand for it, yet no forums, no trailers, nothing but a few screenshots. Either they had to cut there marketing department in order to make this game or they are going to drop a bombshell.

We will soon see i guess, im hoping Franchise mode is there though, im a die hard sports video gamer and i find the best part of them is season mode. Im guessing Origin will be a seperate mode but would be cool if it was in Franchise mode and you get to select your team depending where your alligence lies (something that could be asked when starting Franchise mode)

Aside from the crowd i thought the detail in the Stadiums is pretty cool, the fact the you can see the "Quick Beers" at Suncorp was cool. Maybe not for others but i liked it. Anyways not long now, cant wait. Anyone gonna be editing your teams in terms of roster. If so post it.

savvart · 09-08-2010, 05:13 PM

I'm looking forward to playing a full season and it would be great to be able to play origin within the season, even if the computer automatically picked the teams depending on who is playing well. There would be a few shocks in that for sure...

We need more info, pure and simple...!!!

Younan90 · 09-08-2010, 09:51 PM

Any news on Franchise mode for Rugby league live?

savvart · 11-08-2010, 01:13 PM

I beleive there is NO franchise mode but you can play a full season...

And where did you hear that?

Radman · 11-08-2010, 01:51 PM

There is no franchise mode, only Season or Competition mode.

The achievement list pretty much confirms this.

MDC · 11-08-2010, 02:12 PM

I just pre-ordered this at EB. Anyone able to say how many teams you can custom-create?

I wish they'd make a League game which featured a lot of old jerseys (Super League, jumpers from recent seasons which aren't current, etc.) & more variety in the custom jerseys section, like FIFA exhibit).

Pumped for it, though!!!

devonuto · 12-08-2010, 05:24 PM

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before, but I found it pretty cheap for pre-order with free postage here: http://www.fishpond.com.au/Games/Pla.../9312590123375

Enjoy

Ojay · 17-08-2010, 02:51 PM

Ask HES or Big Ant for info Sidhe didn't make the game.

They released a trailer if you've been under a rock.

Hey

The shoulder tackle was one of the first things noted in the trailer discussion thread, which is here:

inglis2009 · 18-08-2010, 08:43 PM

The wait continues...

Upupcronulla · 18-08-2010, 08:44 PM

So people can try the game before they buy it, it doesn't necessarily need to be a day 1 purchase for all.

Especially when budget and deadlines play a factor for the devs post release demo's may be the only option.
