[QUOTE="Inertia, post: 22648"] @nzl-fan I agree with everything you've said there. @knowsleyroader - the more you play this game the more it antagonises you. I thought the game was great at first but I was still aware I hadn't played it enough to be good enough to find out what was going to a problem. I find you have to have a decent team to be any good at this game. I've breezed normal mode going as Aus, NZ and England but yesterday I took up as Wales and took the default team it gave me and i got beaten 21-0 by italy on a 20 minute match. This was after losing 31-21 to England in the match before (i scored 3 tries in the last 15). I just couldn't get into their 22. Everytime I did get close my players knocked and gave away a free kick. The abysmal kicking game means you cannot compete with the CPU if it decides you won't break its line and you can only do that if you have speedy players else you forget it. This is another game where it really comes down to the speed of everything. The fact you cannot pass the ball out quickly before being tackled is highly annoying and the fact people suddenly catch balls from 2 meters away from them also spoils carefully placed kicks. Lke mentioned above, for a sport that usually has a fair penalty count i think I have been awarded one kickable penalty in front of the posts. On the surface this game kicked WCR's ass but now I find myself doing the same game plan. Constantly, throwing the ball left and right to make up ground. This cumbersome pc menu and lack of competition options would have been forgiven if the game play was spot on. [/QUOTE]
