Hopefully they make a comeback. I love the retro stuff and for the original Bradman games they really sold it. I mean, the title itself was obviously very "retro". Funny that you'd bring in the scenario mode, which has retro written all over it, yet remove that stuff.

I just turn it off. The game has nice ambient sounds and you don't need commentary. Cricket is too long a game for any video game commentary to not get repetitive.

Pretty common thing in the industry. PC = pirating. By giving consoles an exclusive time period they can help sales. Hell, GTA V had like a 2 year window before it hit PC.

Great work already guys! I personally haven't contributed much to the academy since Bradman 14. I do always love that every time around there are a million folks doing Kholi :p If the stadium editor has improved I may make some this time around. Not even necessarily real life creations, but...

Literally can't think of the last console game that crashed on me, let alone day 1. Anyway this is not a super interesting conversation

Most games do not crash on day 1 without installing a day 1 patch.

It's still a retail-purchased game. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect it not to crash.

Will they appear pixelated in the game this time?

Last time I used it it was very hard just to create simple cauldron-like stadiums such as the MCG and the Gabba. It was near impossible to get the stadiums to curve around properly. Has that changed?

Heads up that Doug Bollinger looks good but is a right arm medium bowler in the NSW team. I just noticed that.

Lovely work. I had a little play with the stadium editor but unfortunately it seems to have been untouched from the previous one :( I don't see why there is a "surround" grandstand that doesn't actually have the right radius to surround the ground. I can understand that for an oval ground it...

This may have been pointed out.... But this would actually only be their second shot at redemption, as DBC 14 cannot be considered a shot at redemption since it was the first game... And anyway, DBC 14 was great fun and entertained me for many games. DBC 17 made some improvements but...

Congrats on the big Ashes scoop BA. I, like most people here, am more keen on the gameplay side than any licences, given how good the academy is. Nevertheless, having this branding (if done well) will no doubt help grow the game immensely, and this should roll over into the gameplay. Seeing...

I do notice that the field changes are often as a result of where I hit the ball, so in that sense I think there is a plan of sorts. Now, do bowlers target outside offside if they have a heavy offside field? I'm not sure. I haven't played the game long and carefully enough to speak about this...

I played a 20/20 game on PS4, batting on both sides. Some pros and cons specific to the new patches Pros: - AI fielders are more aggressive so running between the tickets is a challenge, but there are still too many direct hits - More variety in shot placement forward of square, particularly...

Thanks for the hard work then! I was under the impression that you could edit some team data now and then do an "apply all" of sorts, although I must admit I haven't spent as much time in the 17 academy as I did 14.

Wonderful! May I ask, do the players in old teams have old time gear? I remember in DBC14 it was a hassle manually assigning them old bats, gloves, pads etc.

Are all adboards still LED style? Is it possible to have an image that isn't all shiny?

Looks like things are a lot more fun these days!!! Very exciting, and kudos to Big Ant!

So, this may seem like a bit of a copout post but there are 133 pages here that I don't have time to read. Very simple question: For those who thought that the game was not fun before patch 4, do you think it is fun now?
