This is in the end was only a small part of it.
The major delay was a licensing issue for the RB Pro 12 and the Top 14.
The European release will now be patched out of the box to Version 2.0. Among a number of really important improvements and bug fixes, patch 2.0 also unfortunately, adds some licence controls as mentioned above.
For example:
Pre patch 2.0 - you could take the Irish Team (or any Int'l team) go through the Pro 12 / Aviva / Top 14 / whatever league and just move the "REAL Players" into the team without editing them.
Now unfortunately you cannot do that. You must now go and edit each player name (fake names used in Int'l. squads). Not impossible to re-create the correct national teams but truly annoying and time consuming.
The same also applies to inter league transfers. You can transfer players between teams in a specific league (e.g. Pro 12) but you can't do inter league transfers (e.g. Pro 12 to Top 14) etc... So it makes it much more difficult to update squad rosters.
EDIT: Anyone who imported from Australia / NZ will be able to do all of the squad updates, setup the correct int'l squads etc... and then install the patch - or remove the patch and make the changes you desire and re-install patch. Can't do this on the European Versions as patch is straight from box.
That sounds like a real pain. Pre-ordered the European version myself
I take it the Project Nova update file won't work on the European version so? 0 -

As I understand it I'm afraid it won't - its not clear yet if Nova will work in part or not at all (e.g aviva premiership players could be transferred to SH teams)
Work arounds may eventually become available0 -

well the way I see it is that you can't transfer the club players to, for example, International sides Ireland, Wales, Scotland and France (examples)
But, you can create all the players yourself, trying to recreate their image and assigning them the stats you want, or just copy the stats assigned to the players that they have been given for their clubs.
As for project Novo, it depends on if they just transferred the club players straight in to the international sides/transferred them in and then edited the slightly, or if they created the players from scratch.
If its the former it won't work but if its the latter it will work.
However, I'm sure the project Novo team or someone else would be willing to create the players from scratch if that's not what already happened.
Luckily for me I'm sorted as my copy is from NZ

I had to move up to pro difficulty within 24 hrs of first playing it.
So far I am finding Pro pretty decent to be honest. I think you get a mix in it, with Leinster I am winning a lot of the games I should, but still having tight games against bigger teams, pulling off a shock away win to French sides but every now and then slipping up to a lower team like Aironi
Just completed my first six nations in career mode... I won 4 out of 5 games. Had a handy enough win at home to France, and away to Italy, I beat wales by a handful of points away and beat Scotland with a 80minute + drop goal from Rob Kearney, which was a cracking tough game and a great way to win.
Last game at Aviva against England for Grand Slam.... lost 17-6 while i dominated much of the game I just could not break down their defence line. Disappointing to lose, but in some ways I was very satisfied by the game nonetheless as there is a good element of difficulty mixed with realism in it at Pro level for me at the moment0 -

May have to give that a shot so. Have been playing on hard for a while and am finding it a little too easy, especially against the weaker sides. The only thing about Pro I'd be wary of is the place kicking. I still find it a little awkward on Hard....0 -

Not much different to be honest. I still find it as tough. Interestingly I have a higher success rate with sexton and o'gara and about 15-20% lower with necewa and Kearney. Can't tell why it's harder with those players, I guess the cursor moves quicker or something0 -
