    Bowling and Wicket-taking

    Hey all, Anybody notice taking wickets is really hard? Like really hard. I have been bowling maidens often and not conceding over 2 3 runs an over with attacking field settings. The earlier DBC games had a gap! You could stack all the fielders in the off side and keep bowling just inside the...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    Ill swallow my pride and try once more. Cheers to you. Im still afraid in the long run the randomness will catch on but one should expect that when amla is scoring 30 plus runs an over. Moreover, could we also find updates where the randomness be reduced and more merit based on higher...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    If you dont like what ur buying then dont defeats the purpose of even having a discussion forum. Let me add. Ive even avidly enjoyed the ps1 versions of brian lara/shane warne cricket so the question here isnt whose older. Back to being too easy.....was the brian lara 2007 easy? Yes while the...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    Thanks... ok. So no pitch marker. An alternate perhaps? Atleast we are getting somewhere. The multiple patches and fine tuning had improved the game bugs but severely ignored the gameplay issues themselves. Im ok with having a serious game sometimes too. In my last attempt i began a career...

    Nah...cant ignore. Someone needs to stands up for trolls to sit down. They ll start soon again too. Time dofferences in my favor at the moment. Also...if i back out any hope of dev responding goes further down the drain... Uve been helpful.. but there seems to be a "oh not again" or hush hush...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    It seems im in a loop here. I could post about an upcoming game in the prev versions forum where it does not belong or Post it in the new games own forum only to be asked to go to the old page. Yes! Its been discussed but isnt it easier then? For the experts/devs to just simply say. " sorry bud...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    Jolly! Lets wait till the release of the game to post our grievances from the prior versions. Thats what i do when i start a new project too. Launch it and then listen to players reviews from the prev editions I wasmt part of the discussion in the prev ones so that is a miss on my part. But its...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    So where were the meaningful arguments. Looks like all of you just pulled out the trump playbook of just yelling. Not one comment on players primarily preferring the leg side to score runs. Not one player mentioning how you bowling for an hour to a good strategy only yields wickets if the...

    Your 3rd shot at redemption

    Warning: The following my sound like a rant, but let me assure you. Im just a lifelong cricket gamer who has bought and unable to keep up with the changes/updates and frustrations of the previous DBC editions and their game engines Ill try to keep it short. Recently I found an old version of...

    Bowling Guide!

    Its a little harsh to say I am disagreeing for the sake of disagreement! I feel you are giving the bowling mechanics more credit than it deserves. Heres an answer and why too! In reality, at the start of innings the fielders are in so boundaries are expected, but so is edges with good...

    Bowling Guide!

    So if I am a fast bowler, I see that a batsman is new, his weakness is front foot such as A Cook, I cant get him out straight up on the wickets. How is his weakness front foot then? Next up, theres very few edges that fly off full length. I am yet to see a catch by the cover fielder, it either...

    Bowling Guide!

    The most common shots Ive seen for my poor deliveries per se were in the fine leg/long leg region or the Long on/off regions. After covering the deep extra cover and deep midwicket that is. Once I have him trapped and ready to pounce, he gets on one knee and hits it by long stop right above the...

    Bowling Guide!

    Its the fact that your confidence or the batsman confidence has nothing to do with the way dismissals are happening. The fact that their weakness shown by R3 has nothing to do with it. More over if you bowling to a field set for the batsman, that has nothing to do with it. Lastly, if all these...

    Bowling assistance Is it just me or is bowling to AI a lot harder in Patch 2. I had a few tricks against the AI before the 2nd patch. Anyone have any luck? any tricks to trigger a collapse? I know how it sounds but as I would explain below, bowling to a plan or bowling maidens is futile...
