Cricket 24 - General Discussion

Does bowling to a plan really work in the game? Sometimes I feel like whatever I do, the batting is going to hit a boundary or lose a wicket, and I’m never sure what impact I’m actually having (it might just be I’m not playing very well)

Never felt like this in 22 or 19

Honestly I've felt it was the same in 22 and 19, unless I'm missing a trick. Im playing mostly T20s at the moment and find that bowling to a plan doesn't really work and I'm just trying different deliveries in hope of something working. I do find sometimes bowling short can cause issues so I'll try that. But otherwise I'm just pressing buttons and hoping!

Ive created a T20 league with custom teams I've even gone through each player and looked at what their best bowling attributes are in hope that maybe that might help me but I just find that spinners are the way to go.

I wish there was more of a risk/reward system where bowling certain deliveries could bring a higher chance of a wicket but against a good batter or a confident batter you could easily get hit for a boundary. At the moment in the current system, it just feels like bowling delivery after delivery in the hope of getting one of the seemingly 5 or 6 repeatable dismissals

I wish BA would just explain how the bowling works and what we should be trying to do. If it's purely scripted down to attributes and what delivery we choose doesn't matter then there is literally no point in bowling.

@wasteyouryouth When you create jerseys in inkscape (I assume you use this) do you have a template or size guide that you use to get dimensions correct for the in game kits?

Thanks for that, I can't get things to work anyway

In the proficiencies tab there is a Vs Spin proficiency. Has anyone tried putting this at 5 for all players on a team to see if it combats Spin being rather overpowered?

Seemingly no, granted its a small sample size. I just felt like I was going to take a wicket sooner with the spinners despite none being prominent spinners. As expensive as duckett was, he had more play and misses and drew more edges than broad and Anderson combined. Crawley and root bowled the PP and were fairly economical too with an extremely aggressive field.

Ai Cant hit pull shot six. Am using Bouncer & slow bouncer variation to defend them any total. AI batsman still plays Bouncers very poorly. Cant even hit aggressive four. Quite boring. Any suggestions for better Ai batting ..

Difficulty : legend & veteran
Match type: Any limited over. Match

With IPL starting from this month, and BAS having IPL team licenses, it would be wise to release the game before 20th March. However, we still have nothing about the game. However, big ant has never been that smart.

1 - they typically try to release around the Ashes.

2 - the last thing they need to do is put out yet another game (of any sort) right now. They've released 4 games in 22 months. Some were tagged as early access, some not, but they were all released in highly unfinished states. The worst of which is Rugby 25, a game that has inexplicably come out of early access in a state that I can't comprehend.
