    I wasn't going to both with it because my mate said it was shit (he's a manager at a video store so he gets all the games early and takes them home for a while). But after reading that bit I might because I would put the house on him doing this.

    Sounds like people on Xbox are really having frame rate issues.....I've had no issues with frame rate at all on PS3. So if you're an Xbox owner it might pay to wait for a patch or rent it???

    Someone named Rugbyfrench has already made a roster update for some teams/ comps/ players for PS3 so will be checking that out today.

    Hopefully this one sees the light of day on the shelves over here in the US and when it does I'll be making the purchase. The last Rugby Challenge eventually found it's way over here so I have my hopes held high.

    An odd question but to those of you who own it; are there any weird countries on there where you're kinda like "ooh this is exhilarating, I didn't know these guys even played. I'm excited now?" If I recall the last one featured Spain and Germany. Really got the blood going down south every time I'd skim past them on the team selection page.

    Jonah Lomu Rugby had Sri Lanka and the infamous number 10 blacksamasompong

    Why don't you import it?

    Pretty sure I got Shanghaied last time I tried this with a game you couldn't get here. Some throwaway cricket game that is long forgotten now but meant so much at the time no doubt. I dunno if it's the 360's themselves or the discs or even both but those bloody things are region locked, and I found this out the hard way.

    Worst case I can always download it onto the PC but that's what firing up EA Sport's golden oldie's are for. It's a rare treat when this console generation gets a rugger game, and I fully intend on being able to take advantage of that when I can. If anything simply to share with my American "buddies," rubbing it in, what they could have instead of their precious Madden with it's 69ers and Wesley Walk-in's.

    Yeah there's countries like Zimbabwe, Spain, Portugal, Kenya etc. But they're unlicensed.

    RC2 is region free and you can also buy it on the PSN store Xbox store

    Unlicensed teams erk me. Couldn't stand Ricky Ponting cricket till I had fully edited every single player name.

    People already have made SA super rugby/ SA test side updates (and for other international teams as well) so not too big of an issue.

    Having randoms in a side like Zimbabwe - well who cares, who would know the players anyway.
     
  12. TheGreemSim ER Witters

    Zimbabwe?! You know how to brighten up a kids day, Rego. That's just the kind of thing I was hoping to hear. Now that I know it is region free there's nothing stopping me from acquiring it. Thanks for the info man, really appreciate it!

    Finally found someone that's done a PS3 squad update (that's pretty decent) couple of overrated players/ forwards too fast but that can be easily fixed. Other than that everything else is spot on (player info)

    A guy named papachinzo did it. Link: http://rapidshare.com/files/2483414688/Papachinzo's Squad update 1.1.rar

    The SR teams only have like 23 real players but not a bad effort.

    What are the best sliders Rego?
     
  15. Rego RS Hutchinson

    Something like:

    High tackle frequency = 0 or 1
    Intercept frequency = default
    Offload chance = 5
    Offload frequency = 2
    Offload success = 3
    Passing = Default
    Break tackle = 2
    Tackle ability = 1
    Ruck bonus = +5 more than default
    Attack urgency = default
    Defensive urgency = + 7 more than default

    Think that's a pretty good basis. Obviously you can play with if it doesn't suit you but yeah.

    Sweet, using the bric mod for the PC
     
  17. Rego RS Hutchinson

    Bric WAG.

    What's it like?
     
  18. Gazza GJ Weaver

    Pretty good, it's just roster updates and kits
     
  19. Gazza GJ Weaver

    They seem really really low?
     
  20. Rego RS Hutchinson

    Offloads for obvious reasons but for tackling ability it's to decrease the overpowering tackles. Break tackle is so it's not a break fest.
