"PATCH 2A RELEASE! FRIDAY JUNE 9th, 3pm AEST.

 

PATCH 2B TBA.

 

Thank you for the ongoing support and feedback for AFL Evolution! We have been listening to all your feedback and working hard to improve the game accordingly. We are committed to delivering a PATCH, scheduled into stages, 2A and 2B, with 2A focusing on pressing issues and 2B to solve smaller issues and a few “Nice to haves” ?. In the meantime, while you are eagerly waiting to get your hands on PATCH 2A, here is the list of improvements and fixes which you will get to enjoy upon downloading the PATCH on Friday.

                                  

Gameplay:

-Adjustments to the advantage rule.  

   * Added a time window where no advantage can be claimed by pressing the L3 button.  

   * Turning over the ball during this time will automatically trigger no advantage.

                                                

-Adjustments to interchange and AI stamina usage to increase the number of interchanges that occur.

                                                

-Decreased the kick charge times for difficulties below "Medium" to allow quicker kicking.

                                               

-Fixed an issue where players were not reset in the 3rd quarter. (Including the pro player not being put back on)

* AI goal kick accuracy should now also be more realistic for all difficulties.

Marking:

-Player mark timing should be more forgiving on easier difficulties.

Listed and Rookie Career:

-Added ability to plead guilty to a 1 week tribunal charge.

Coach Career:

-Made the AI more selective about the trades it will accept in coach career.  

  * Lowered the value of draft picks in the eyes of the AI.

                                                

-Adjustments to the severity of suspensions to make them more realistic.

hahaha nice man!

 

I was just about to post this myself but you beat me to it! platinum should be attainable on Friday then :)

It had to be done, used the phone while on the train.

From the above one would hope the plat should be attainable. who knows this patch might break another trophy. It's a shame that i got sick of sitting through CPU play while your on the bench so I put this game to the side until the patch so I have a bit of work to go for the plat still.

Question I have is...

What is the actual criteria for "Silverware" though.

As I am assuming we have all at least simulated all competitions on HARD thinking this would get the trophy, so do we think the trophy will just pop upon the patch being installed and the game starting as it will recognise previous recorded data...

Or do we think we will have to complete the competitions all over again.

 

Also - Is it competitions through the front menu, AFL, TAC, VFL, Under 18's, AFLW

Or is it through Coach or Listed player which only has TAC, VFL or AFL.

 

I still need 1,360 goals, a bit disappointing they cant build in a simple tracker to let you know how many you have.

I'm also not sure if this is for one player or across multiple players on all platforms of the game.

 

Any clarity help from anyone that has it would be appreciated.

the goals are all together just play regular games on easy and itll pop.

 

im guessing theyre adding an extra save slot to Competition or something? unless its just to fix up the WAFL since that was causing the problem being added in late or w/e the go is.

 

and ya prolly gotta do it all again

They might take it the other way and make it a non sim trophy. Given they know many people have simulated trophies this would not surprise me in the slightest.
