Running through others? Like is it running straight through like the demo, or is there an animation so that they swirve around?... I was hoping that this would be fixed...
A lot of people were hoping for a lot of things. I myself would have loved to have added more functionality, finishing touches, and gameplay components, but you have to draw the line somewhere.
Our budget and timeframe only allows us to achieve so much. I personally think we have done well despite of the restrictions imposed, but at the end of the day if you are expecting something which exceeds other sports games developed on 10 times the budget you will be disappointed.
OK, but can you at least tell me if there is an animation for it?
Matta, stop whinging about it, its a minor problem and all people like you seem to be doing is pointing out every negative aspect of the game, just think of it this way 'a rugby league game is going to be released, first since 1996' and just leave Mario alone.

That will make you feel better and hopefully shut them up
Right, let's put things into perspective.
Jonah Lomu Rugby for me (And many others!) is the benchmark for Rugby games. Am I right? So before people start whinging about minute animations, or players running through each other in Rugby League etc let's look at the facts.
Jonah Lomu Rugby was the best Rugby game playability wise. Great one player, Fantastic 2 player, excellent kicking system etc
HOWEVER... it DID NOT HAVE:
Spanking great cut scenes a'la Madden 2004 (in fact, it didn't have any!!)
Knock ons
Substitutions
Flashy Graphics
Players with faces!!!!
Club teams
Good tackle animations
Injuries
High Tackles
Also:
You couldn't play a match for longer than 15 minutes
Hand off was VERY unrealistic
Side step was dire
Commentry was repetetive
The teams were already out on the field, no intros for them
etc...
But did it affect the game? NO, absolutely NOT!!!! The game is amazing playability wise, and I think, no, sorry, I KNOW that Rugby League will wipe the floor with it without even trying.
So come on fellas, pack in whinging about things that don't matter.... Jeez.
Roll on October
