[QUOTE="jimmy44, post: 52179"] OK after a few more hours play I am really getting into this game and loving it more and more - my main worry about the game after playing a few matches on elite was the leaky defensive AI, and the number of gaps . However I have noticed the defensive abilties of a team outlined in the stats has a much bigger impact in rugby 06 than 05. For instance the NZ maoris have a good attacking stats yet poor defence and you can really see this on the park. They are slow to line up and do not mark men effectively. However come up against a team like Austrtalia and there are precious few holes or gaps in the defence. This is very realistic and true to life, and also determins how you play a game. I.e tactical kicking or spread it wide. To illustrate the differcne this can make I thrashed the Maoris 38 - 0 but could only muster a 7-35 loss against the Aussies whos defence was awesome! I also got beaten 10-27 by Argentina whos are also good in defence. Australia A however have poor defence but great attack hence a very high scoring game 27-33!! I also hade a great game as Wasps V Warhatas 10 -7. The big spoiler for me is that classic view really does not work and this is by far my favorite view. However I am trying my best to get used to classic 2 view. Anyway so far so good. If it wasn't for the classic view I would be over the moon with this game. P.s yes I have tried side view and still hate it! p.p.s I LOVE the replays! They are madden style and to be honest I could sit there for hours just watching the replays of a big hit or great break away try! [/QUOTE]
