    PC Public Preview Update Now Available

    Thanks, all for your suggestions. Fixed now....turned out, as @Dridge118 suggested, that this was an issue with window focus...even though I only have one monitor. When I clicked on the screen with the mouse, it then accepted controller input. Something in the Windows update must have caused...

    Yes...this might be a factor. Reinstalling didn't work...but it looks like a problem unique to me. I will try and find some time to check drivers etc.

    Yes...I've tried two different controllers, hitting enter on the keyboard and punching the screen...and it's not even one of those touch sensitive ones. I'm reinstalling.

    Hmmm...no it doesn't seem to. I may need to revalidate files...that didn't work...I fear a reinstallation may be needed.

    @Spoobir thanks for trying that out. Not sure where the problem is...I can't get it to move off the start screen.

    PC Public Preview Update Now Available

    I still can't get the game to leave the start screen. Could someone on PC let me know if they have the same problem when launching the game from Steam Big Picture mode (running directly on PC...not using Steam Link or anything). It could just be me but, if not, I'll report it as a bug. Thanks...

    PC Public Preview Update Now Available

    The latest update seems to have done something odd. The game won't recognise controller input on the start screen (i.e. press A to start) when running on a PC in Steam's Big Picture mode. As a result I can't actually start the game. I've tried restarting Steam but get the same result. Anyone...

    Yes. He ran from long off towards the extra cover region not too far from the boundary rope and took the catch. The ball went up very high so he was in position well before it reached him. Still haven't seen any athletic diving catches in the deep...and this is the only instance I can recall...

    I've been away so haven't had much time on this build but gave it a little go this evening. Career mode ODI Eng vs Pak. When bowling (leg spin) I had three instances in the same match of a batsman going for a big hit and not clearing the boundary. Two of these still exhibited that lazy fielding...

    @Zhish the left stick doesn't dictate direction of rotation. It did in DBC14 but not in Ashes. Spin direction is based on delivery selection. You can rotate the LS in whichever direction you're more comfortable with.

    Ah...no. PC, the choice of champions.

    Patch Discussion - PS4 (1.08) & Xbox One (1.0.0.9)

    That's certainly odd. I've just finished a career mode Test in Wellington and the pitch deteriorated visibly quite quickly. I half expected pitch inspectors to show up to give it a prod on the final day because there were all sorts of cracks and wear. It also seemed to change in character over...

    Ashes Cricket General Discussion

    @Dutch yes I hope this gets tracked down and squashed too. Batting in Pro Cam has always been my preferred option but is fantastic with the new timing adjustments in the patch...the only major problem is this occasional issue with camera rotation (though I'd also like it to calm down a bit when...

    Details regarding swing bowling issue - Update available

    I like the fact that on custom replays you have lots of control of camera position and play speed. What I really would like to see is for the default replays to be reworked to something more engaging. I think the current standard replays use the same (slightly odd) camera angles and cuts as...

    But you were caught out at second slip...looks like the right decision.

    Ashes Cricket General Discussion

    I believe that 1) on-field umpires are programmed to make the occasional wrong call to reflect human error and 2) 3rd umpire should overturn any wrong decision when called upon. That said, it is known that umpires will give players out caught off pad (no bat involved) and on-field and third...

    New Patch now available for PC, PS4 (1.07) & Xbox One (1.0.0.8)

    Greatly enjoying the new batting timings with Pro Cam. For me, a much improved batting experience. I've always played DBC and Ashes using a two step batting motion: LS first then RS...because that was how I was taught to bat in real life ("raise, step and play" was my cricket teacher's mantra)...

    New Patch now available for PC, PS4 (1.07) & Xbox One (1.0.0.8)

    I think fielding, in general, needs a bit of care and attention. Its not just field placing but it would be nice if it had a lot more character. Teams should have players who are better slippers and close fielders and players who are better in the outfield and players who are not that great and...

    Well that's a phrase I won't be putting into Google Image Search.
