Hmm not a bad idea. Am trying to think of a way to overhaul the tackling system completely, maybe a tackle and/or big hit button would be good. Will think about how this might be applied. Biff idea is good
Also, it gives a little bit of a risk/reward dynamic for being penalised.

I was thinking maybe like the Rugby League series where it goes into slow motion whenever you are holding the kick button? But that wouldn't really help for path drawing or anything. Might do some trials in the future for this slow-mo button. See if it fits in with the animations etc. that i have.
Quote ="Richard_delariv"i can only scores from distance and by running from dummy half. trying to pass the ball around is a nightmare
ive mastered kick offs but not kicks in general play
irritating that they convert every single try and when i go for conversions i cant even see the posts!
the first two aren't necessarily glitches in the game, just me being crap probably.
Please can you put Championship and C1 teams on there?'"
For the conversions, a big tip is to look at the radar on the bottom left of the screen. If you can perfectly match the angle between the red dot and the posts on the radar, you will land your kicks 9 times out of 10.
More teams will be coming in the future once i redesign the way that jerseys are drawn on the screen. currently there are images for every frame of every team, and adding Championship, C1, QRL, NSWRL etc. teams will blow out the download size significantly. So its planned, but not in the immediate future.
As for points 1 and 2, practice makes perfect
Considering adding a joystick and pass/kick buttons in future release, I think some people might prefer it this way. Personally, I find that once you master the touch controls the amount of control you get over kicking, passing, running etc is much better than traditional joystick and buttons, but i accept that it is a bit more of a learning curve.
