Hi guys,
Just something I’ve noticed by playing as a few teams, there tends to be some fairly odd stadium choices on Career mode throughout the season, so basically where certain games will be played. For example, I just played a Melbourne vs Collingwood game at TIO staidum in Darwin, and I have previously played Hawthorn vs Geelong at UTAS Staduim in Launceston. It’d be great if these sorts of ‘bigger‘ games could be played at the main home ground of the teams. Of course, completely understandable if this is not possible.
Cheers, Ben
Hey @benwhite5477 thanks for reporting this to us. We'll do our best to put the bigger games at those venues, and we are also working to putting the traditional games in their specific timeslots in future fixtures. We'll add this to the list of things for future updates
Awesome. Thanks for this @Community Manager Jack . I’d also like to bring up an issue of multiple games being played one after another on the same day at the same stadium. These are some examples of the situation. It’s probably not the biggest deal, but just something of note.
Here, 2 games are played at exactly the same time (13:10) at the MCG. Obviously not possible. 2 games are also played one after another at the Adelaide Oval too on Sunday.
Here, 3 games are played in a row at both the MCG on Saturday, and Marvel Stadium on Sunday.
Here is the example of the Queens Birthday game being played at TIO Stadium.
Thanks for the help with this. It’s also using my original career save from when the game was released, so if this has been changed since, just not for my career save, please let me know.
Cheers
@benwhite5477 Thanks for letting us know about this, it is a little more tricky for us to solve, but I'll still pass it on to the team with a few possible solutions.
It would be awesome after the 2020 season fixture is finished in career modes for the standard locked in games to be in the following season fixtures. The Richmond v Blues season opener, North's Good Friday match, Anzac Day, Geelong v Hawks Easter Monday, Dreamtime and Queens Birthday. Those are important matches to the AFL calendar and without them the game just feels like going through the motions until you get to finals.
Hey @junia_mccarthie, that's the plan, we are doing our best to get all these big games into our future fixtures, to keep the flow of the season as normal as possible!
