2nd August Screens in one post

[BigAntStudios]

There were still some important strides made there, for instance the two-part body animations where the upper and lower bodies are animated separately. In previous games you could dispose of the ball or get tackled. In here you could realistically get a handball off when being tackled (sometimes, if quick enough). I'm sure that development helped lead to cricket where the animation blending is so much more sophisticated.

No Doubt.

The video of gameplay probably isn't too indicative for those that don't know the sport as it's on a far camera and the play on instead of going to the goal kicking camera. The centre bounce and kickouts probably show that the trailer and the game are the same and not "enhanced"...

Yeah it wasn't easy to find many good quality videos since it only came out late in the piece on PC.

Mouth-watering proposition of using the cricket engine for the TRUE (not Tru Blu) AFL Live 2

Great sadness that we are not making AFL Live 2

Perhaps the cricket game wouldn't be as good though if you had to split the resources? I don't mind doing it one at a time and after AFL Live 1 cricket games are more in need of a makeover than AFL. I do hold out some hope for the next AFL game though. Hopefully they have learnt from BA.

I'm not sad now ross, Aussies are winning the cricket and we have 11 wonderful new screens. PS two questions for you.
1. How long can your engine last till you have to move on to a new engine.
2. Can the cricket players knock into each other like in the real thing or just pass though like other cricket games.

I didn't mean sad, I meant over-using the emoticons!

Our engine has evolved through all of our platforms and is now running on Next-Gen... you can do this when you own the engine and source code

Players cannot go through each other - they collide.

But there so so cute ross.p

Ok so they do collide with each other, no more walking though the stumps also would be my guess.

So cricket 14 will run on next gen, I no this will not get a answer but I will try anyway. Can you tell us anything about the next gen version, simple things not just features. Thanks Ross.

 

[BigAntStudios]

No I cannot.

edit: sorry, I could, but I am not allowed to by strict NDA.

 

[79cricket]

Ok I will not ask about next gen but if there is a way better version of cricket 14 released for next gen then will we maybe get a special version for say ps3, xbox and pc. PS No emoticons at all ross.

I'm going to close this thread as we're discussing the screens in the other one.
