Over this game already.
AI throws half field passes perfectly in to holes with support play either side on the 4th tackle every time. When I do it, intercept, and when SBW does find his centre? It's FPN with O'Donnell in support and no one else.
Played a game where Broncos scored 5 times from consecutive kick offs in the second half, that's about equal to the amount of sets I had at all. Anderson putting pin point bombs on the 3rd tackle for tries.
Thaiday knocks on in the act of scoring a try, I'm tackled 1 metre out in the field of play. No scrum, tackled at dummy half for a line drop out :roll: Gillett impossible to tackle 1 on 1. Wallace with a try assist every time he throws a cut out pass.
This is more frustrating to learn than Dark Souls.
9/13 completions against 24/27. 2 linebreaks to 19 but only 11 missed tackles. Still yet to receive a penalty in any game I've played too.
Practice makes perfect. Try quicker, shorter passes to combat the constant interceptions.
If you're playing career mode, change every players training mode to defensive. Your missed tackle count will reduce.
When the opposition put up bombs, I switch to a player furthest away from the ball and let the computer contest the kick. More often than not you'll get the ball.
Above all, don't panic. Get through your sets, keep on top of them in defense and you'll win. The AI in this game swings heavily on form in the games. If you're camped on your own line and missing plenty of tackles, you will lose. But you'll find that if you start getting some possession and makin some metres, it'll be the opposition on the back foot. Very much true to life
