-INTRODUCTION-

This is the faq for EA Sports long over-due Rugby 2001 (formerly
Rugby
World Cup '99). Originaly planned for release to coincide with the
1999 Rugby World Cup in Wales it was unexpectedly delayed, over a year
later a less than expected (from EA) but none the less highly
anticipated rugby game is finaly being released, but with so many
features missing, it can be expected that EA will release updated
versions (Unless it bombs like EA Cricket '99) in the near future,
this may be much easier given the versitility of the PC and the ease
it would take to make simple patches. How ever would EA sports throw
away potential profits in free updates as opposed to rehased releases
(FIFA, Madden series). Enough Politics, a little about me, I'm a
Kiwi through and through so I am very excited about this game, like
most New Zealanders Rugby is my life so please understand if i get a
little worked up. I also wrote the FAQ for Jonah Lomu Rugby for
Playstation so this isn't too different.

-CAMERA VIEWS-

Open Play Free Cam -Generaly looking straight up the field from
behind the team with the ball. Tends to
sweep
around at the slightest hint of one team
gaining possesion making pushing/dig in
change buttons. Combines most of the other
camera angles.
Sideline Cam -This camera runs perpendicular to the
goal
lines at a low angle. Best camera for
push/dig in, has difficulty tracking
players running down the nearest touch line.
Isometric Cam -A more "fixed" camera, parallel to the
goal
line. About the same as Open Play Free Cam.
My personal favourite
Isometric High Cam -Similar to isometric cam but with a
slightly
higher angle.

-SECTRETS/CHEATS-
None at this time



-BUGS-
* Rucks look absolutly terrible, they appear the same as scrums but
with the tackled player on the ground in the middle of it.
* Rules - Some of the rules are a little off to say the least. (Marks)
* Tackleball, no one attempts to support the tackled player unless you
tell them to.
* Halfback is often no where near the ruck leaving a flanker to play
halfback instead of binding the ruck.
* All passes are lofted or slow
* No advantage played for knock-ons
* Players won't get up after a tackle if not held
* Players will run in a circle rather than turn 180
* Push/Dig in are rleative to the camera which often rotates around
the play.
* M. Nakauta (Fiji) is a lock not an inside center
* There is no advantage played from knock ons, offsides, etc.
* If you are forced to replace a forward with a back (or vice versa)
you can never remove that player from that positon.
* Some of the player ratings are very inaccurate.
* When a player is subbed off the commentators continue to call their
name
* Substitutions are always listed as been performed by the human team
* No way of telling which players are injured

-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS-

Q: When is the PSX version being released?
A: Creative Assembly canned teh PSX version stating "a declining
market" for PSX games. A PSX2 version is rumoured to be in
production and is supposedly planned to be released at the same time
as the PSX2 console in NZ/AUS.

Q: When is Rugby 2001 being released?
A: The full game is schedualed for release on the 25th of August for
Nz/Aus and the 1st of September for the rest of the world.

Q: Will be included in the game?
A: Creative Assembly has included most of the new international
players for the 2000 season into the world cup squads but sadly not
all of them are included (Robinson, MacDonald)

Q: Is there a demo for Rugby 2001?
A: Yes, you can get it from Creative Assembly's web site
(www.creative-assembly.co.uk), its about 15 megs and features
England vs Australia with 4 minutes of play. There is also a CD
based demo that features a few more features(commentry)

Q: Help, I can't win any rucks!
A: Press teh bind button (defult V) a few times to bind some forwards
and dig in, wait for the oppositions power to drop a bit and then
push followed by more diggin in, keep doing this a few times. It is
very effective if you push immediately after the opposition has
becasue their power will be very low.
Some times your halfback can scoot in and pass the loose ball
before a ruck forms.

Q: How do I win scrums against the head(feed)
A: Push as soon as the halfback begins to put the ball in and before
the power meter appears and keep tapping rake(default X), when the
power meter appears dig in and wait to push again, you should know
you have achieved a tighthead when your halfback runs behind your
side of the scrum.
