[QUOTE="sambãd5, post: 794820, member: 12317"] Hey man, all good if i hi-jack your thread? The first things I've done after an afternoon and night of owning the game is play a couple of 7's games and be a pro. I havent played career since the reviews have said no player progression, but will probably get around to it some time. I think its easy to bag on this game, but I feel it holds up. at first their are a couple of glaring problems but once you learn to deal with it its not so bad. Again from a review of my be a pro their are only two issues which let the game down for me. Firstly, god is the commentary awful. And its bad on three fronts too. Firstly its so boring! seriously how can JLR have the best commantary? secondly, its relatively repetitive. But most crucially, and I cant see how it would just be me, but it sounds really tinny or muffled or something. Like you know when you hear a bad recording from a LP on youtube? really bad. Secondly is more specific to be a pro. Ive done two pros, both with the same starting stats etc, but in two clubs. My pro is primarly a 12, secondary 10 and third 13, with the default stats of a flyhalf so i could eventually be a goal kicker. My first pro played for melborne rising, at 12. My second was at the blue bulls at 10. What is annoying so far is you cant call for the ball from the ruck/set piece. It makes it so ****ing annoying because you cant start a set play.

Something a little cool i noticed from watching the [COLOR=#fff0f5][SIZE=1]scottish cannons videos[/SIZE][/COLOR] is kicking straight from the contest win or after receiving the ball. in his videos he said it was from tapping o, x or [] too many times, but i actually think, much like how you call to kick down field/to touch, your team calls for you to do it too.
