| Now received my copy of the game, definite improvement on the previous title but there are still some problems which stop the game from being perfect.
- Not many international teams, makes you wonder if they're keeping their powder dry for next years RLWC so they can release another title
- No mention if kit / roster updates will be available for download, which are needed seeing the game has yet again been released at the end of a season so these are out of date already
- You can't sell players or release them before their contracts end on career mode
- Every players shirt number changes for some reason once you have finised one season on career mode, so for example I had Pat Richards with number 7 on his back
- League fixtures are in the same order every season, so fixtures need to be randomised
- There's no opportunity to move clubs in career mode, this could be easily done for example you could receive job offers in the close season
Hopefully issues such as this can be fixed in any update made available as a few tweaks and this could be an excellent game.
The game is fun to play and challenging too, I found Amateur level far too easy as your player busts tackles virtually every time. Just switching up one level to Rookie is making the game a test to win matches.

Thanks for impressions.
Shame you can't release players early but im just grateful you can do it at all after the restrictions on the past game.
Can you sign players at any point?

No. At the end of each season it shows you which players in your squad are out of contract to allow you to either retain or release them. Also, it shows you which other players are out of contract. This list can be sorted using options such as age, contract value, position.
Hope that answers your question.
Kicked my first 40/20 today, was well pleased. ![Very Happy icon_biggrin.gif](images/smilies//icon_biggrin.gif)

| I notice Paul Sykes is listed as a centre, are you able to play somebody in a position different to their default one?
ie will the game let you play Sykes as a SO rather than a centre?

Yes, it will. Positions seem kind of irrelevant when you're in a match. Jeff Lima for example, spends most games for me playing right centre. They do have 'preferred positions' though, and SO isn't one of Sykes'...

Bunch of pics in here - imgur.com/a/uuOEr - which don't really do it justice. Apart from the tunnel being in the middle of the stand and the new stand behind the goal not being there, BV is very accurate.

| Game looks good compared to last one and will get it on release over here.
question to people who have been playing on this, on career mode before you start can you change and update the playing rosters yourself? also, can you put your created players into the career mode?
Cheers

| As far as I know re. created players in career mode, when you start a career it loads the default squads, so your player wouldn't be in the warrington/leeds/wigan etc squad. There might be the option to change this but I haven't got round to creating players yet...
You can pick your line-up, as with any rl game, before any given game, but signings are only at the end of the season afaik. If signings before playing is really important to you, you could always sim an entire season, which would probably take about ten/fifteen mins cos it's really quick between games (unlike fifa for example) you just tap x a couple of times and you're at next week's game, simulating my entire pre-season took about a minute...
The game is such an improvement on rll1, the stadia look fantastic, the commentry is a slight improvement (alhough I die a little inside when the co-commentator mentions elvis..)
Be prepared for a frustrating first hour though, take everything you know about playing an rl game and forget it, the controls are completely different, I spent my first game putting grubbers in every time I got the ball because i thought it was the sprint button.
