I think underestimating the importance of the day 1 patch is unfair on the developers. We don't know how the game was built so we therefore how can we know how important the patch is? Also there's accidental missinformation that could happen. Someone could innocently say 'It crashes a lot but I...
Interesting - so it refers to the IPL as the Indian T20 League. This probably confirms (*speculation claxon sounds*) it won't be licensed however you can see they're leaning into it by having an auction trophy for it too.
There's every chance there's a exclusivity deal that's been done with the world cup. It might be intertwined with some sort of PR campaign.
Here's me being massively optimistic - they wanted to release in June, game was ready, get World Cup offer and decide to delay......
........actually I'm...
To be honest it said the same wording for June so I'm not taking it as gospel yet. My hunch is that those posting it on Amazon don't know the date either so it's just been automatically pushed back until the date is formally announced.
I think I'm going to be optimistic until I see it. Sometimes for game development you can't see a lot behind the scenes. For example this version might have been in development for 5 years whilst they tweaked the current iterations or maybe being out of lockdown would have aided production. I'm...
Hopefully this fills you with joy:
All new fielding - A complete overhaul of the fielding systems to provide the most realistic and responsive fielding controls ever seen in a cricket video game.
I think Ross has already said that it's not sustainable to patch the switch version regularly like they did the other consoles due to expenses. I would be surprised if it requires immediate attention once that first patch that brings it in line with consoles rolls out. It seems far more...
just going to add an experience i had last night with variable conditions:
- Career one day match: Surry vs Sussex on a soft green top in overcast conditions
The ball was swinging all over the place and the limited bounce on the green top meant that all the balls my player bowled were...
had a little go on the new patch last night and i noticed that there seems to be a pitch marker now when bowling with pro-controls. Is this an addition or have I got a setting on somewhere that's suddenly come into effect?
I for one definitely enjoyed the new patch - especially the edges seem...
I feel like there's a really cool way you could do a gameplay trailer like the Banjo videos but cutting to him playing in various match situations: eg - seeing off the new ball / middle over domination / batting with the tail. They could quickly show the field/the line the AI was bowling. You...
I think I mentioned this way back. It was exactly the same for Ashes I think in all screenshots and trailers. but the Day 1 patch or even the base game had updated physical attributes for the players. Ross even had to come out and clarify it back then as loads of people picked up on it (even...
Now I wonder if this increases the likelihood of the street date being broken? Most suppliers in the UK haven't updated their release dates (I know it's early days).
Not something I would want as we don't want people to be playing the non-approved version of the game and sharing incorrect info...
i do remember in the initial trailer for either Ashes or Cricket 19, the two Australia openers were a generic size but this was altered in the release build
No need, I simply said I was Jack Leach and they let me go immediately.
Very excited to hear about the patch updates though. To be honest I'm really interested to see the throwing updates. Although I really liked the new flat throwing in terms of game play, as it limited cheap runs, I did feel...
It was the lack of wicket diversity as a fast bowler in career mode that was killing it for me! Either bowled of WK caught!
Are the edges to the whole cordon also working for the quicks as well, not just the spinners?
(would love a nip back LBW as well!)
I've just got promoted to county cricket with Hampshire and I noticed something interesting.
When bowling in club cricket I was about to pack it in due to boring wicket types. Every time I played the only dismissal I'd get while bowling fast was caught by the keeper off a drive. I was...
It was a Career 3 day game. Interestingly I've had to tone down the Ai difficulty from Veteran to Pro recently and since then the Ai seems to be more adapt at playing the short ball.
Go figure!
I refuse to ever use common sense. However I will admit that the field that was set for the 9/9...
