    Interactive Replay "Sneak Peek"- Don Bradman Cricket 14

    Sorry Guys, Ross was pushing for the video tonight and so I quickly forced a spinner around the wicket at the start when it would have been a Pace bowler over the wicket. That looks like it stopped the Batsman switch, my bad didn't even realise, obviously, that doesn't happen normally.

    There are a number of styles, but not enough to set that as an option per bowler, I'd love to have enough Variety in the PS4/Xbox One version though to do this.

    Not at this stage for either, Swing has a number of elements that affect it, that i'll go into more detail next week on the Big Ant Forum (I think we've neglected them a bit too much and I'll put some exclusive stuff on there) ---------- yep, but arm speed is important on swing, without...

    The fitness stats are important - because the dictate how fast fatigue builds up and thus other attributes are affected. low fitness and you will find run speed drops, accuracy affected, arm speed slower etc. also, if fatigue builds up it increases injury chances.

    Yep, I'd say the best way to put it is you finesse the ball, no mashing.

    a. Quick singles are based on desire, basically the desire to maintain a run rate, also attributes of fielder, batsman run speed, fatigue, im probably forgetting something. b. The desire to maintain a run rate may be less in tests, so quick singles less likely, rotating strike or protecting...

    1. Hitting the same area will be very hard, there will always be variety on the bowling, I've been playing it for a while and hitting the same spot is really hard. 2. Beamers are possible, not easy as they are the earliest of release points when bowling, so timing is hard and if you are too...

I'd be lying if I didn't say that yes, timing window is affected, but, at the end of the day, you get your timing very good in easy that's not going to be any different in hard, perfect timing if perfect timing you can't change that, we only adjust the timing window to catch you out if you...

    a. it's an easy level thing -but I'd say it's a lot less than on the video, we help the player get to the ball on those levels - harder levels you get no help, if you don't get you foot placement in the right line - then you'll more than likely miss the ball. b. This is a hard one - because...
