Rugby challenge 2: The lions tour edition announced

[Aedaphon]

tbh from the pictures the scrums are as lowsy as they where on RC 1 the gameplay hasn't changed in a particularly good way player likenesses are only for Australia and the all blacks. possibly the only good thing about this game is the fact there is updated strips and loads more stadiums to choose from.

-No. 8 pickups
-Mauls from lineouts
-Setting the width and depth of the back line
-Contesting for the ball at the ruck
-Intercepts
-The Lions
-(USA Eagles... Not a big one admittedly)

There, plenty of good points.

hmm must admit no 8 pick up is defiantly a good feature. can you get forwards to pick and drive at rucks?

Hi Milla and all of you At Sidhe!
I would like to tell you in advance that english is not my first language so excuse me for grammar / spelling errors!
I come from Belgium ( little country next to france :lol: )

Rugby challenge was awesome!! i was so glad to play it and i thank you for bringing rugby gaming at a really high level

I have just one question/ suggestion for RC II.
I play RC on PC and i was a bit sad that there was no alterative other than playing the game with the keyboard.
Will it be possible in RC II ( on PC ) to plug-in a controller or gamepad and play with it? or even choose your own assignments on the keyboard?

Thank you i hope i was clear enough
Henri

Thanks

Rugby Challenge supports the Xbox 360 controller on PC.

Well that preview/review is sure to make South African not buy the game. Consider my pre-order cancelled!!

Because a third party wrote certain things about SA rugby style, or for more relevant reasons to do with the game?

 

[Howzy]

Why don't u make another ultimate team thing just call it summit else

Great to see how quickly the game is being released after being announced - nothing worse than having to wait months (or years) for a game!

That's not really our area, however there is a preorder thread in our forum, where people are posting what it's being listed as on various reseller websites. You might also want to check by email with the retailers you favour.

That's not our area. You'd need to ask them.

So what do you actually do ?

Make the game presumably mate. There's a difference between a developer and a publisher.

 

[Howzy]

So is this the guy to speak to if we want more rugby games ?

One thing that has always annoyed me is that you can't put your guys socks down. How is a player supposed to be fast if he doesn't have low socks and flashy boots?

Yeah - deffo need more lower socks.

Should also have the option of running barefoot. Nothing says fast like rural/country fast in bare feet.

and a team full of Carlin Isles.

I know, this is a new step for rugby games. Want me to send you my CV so you can offer me a job as sock designer??

We get applications from sock designers all the time, but it's worth a shot.

Good, Mario can't have you all slacking off less than a month before release

Hah! We never slack off here. We have several titles in development at a time

We're also looking at doing a few other videos down the line a bit, such as a new Tyrone's tips and a new character creation video. No time-frames for those, but it's something we'd like to do.

Will Tyrone show me how to roll my socks down though?

No, he's a very trim, well-groomed chap. His socks are always pulled up.
