Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

[SpitfiresKent]

Mike I highly doubt your game has all the features Big Ants game has and more. There's no way you can add a load of amazing features in such a short amount of time, surely?

 

[Jine]

Well, Mike you said we have to wait till september. But i really want to know that are you sure that you can bring more features than DBC14?
Its really a tough and straight forward question.
I want your answer. May be this will be my last question about ashes13 to you.

I see it two ways, either all the material released by Trickster has been an elaborate ruse and they'll release the greatest cricket game ever or it will end up being some hilarious joke...

To put it another way...

Either Trickster are the Americans and they've managed to fake the moon landing... or they are the Russians watching the Americans (Big Ant) on the moon and all they can do is mutter something about being able to do that if they 'wanted too'

Just want a "yes" or "no" answer for this question and not ALL will be revealed next month:
You agree that you posted that comment on your official facebook page, right?? So does this game really include those features or was it just another lie?? OK, won't ask anymore questions and I just expect you to answer it as 'yes' or 'no' and nothing else, please. If you want me and others to have trust in this game and beleive, I hope you do the needful.

I love this saga. First, a cricket game that is delayed and delayed and delayed (too many?) and then another game that delivers a number of body blows to its competitor and then all of a sudden the original game needs the whole "month of August" to get up to speed and deliver more than its competitor?
To me, i dont have any interest in Ashes Cricket....the interest is what story will next come out of Mikes mouth.

Its comical!

Guys, take a breath...........Over the last two years we built a lot of HD content and other stuff for the game. Some of it was deferred to DLC, some was confirmed for the initial release of the game and some was plain put on hold do to tight time constraints due to the Ashes UK tour dates and scheduled game release. Now that we have more time we are using the month of August to substantiate what goes in the game or not. Until we are 100% sure of what works and what meets our requirements and contributes to a good cricket game overall we won't be releasing details. Therefore, I repeat my message ALL will be revealed in September and thank you for showing such passion for our up-coming AC2013 game in November! I hope we can now get over this "feed frenzy" for information ASAP and simply let us get on with the tasks at hand which for us is build a game we can all be satisfied with and above all enjoy playing Ashes cricket.

Funny how Mike lied to the community on its face. Saying something on fb and then not backing it up here. You'd be a good politician, Mike.
All this fb thing has been utterly unethical and unprofessional. Terribly disappointed.

Mike, just to ask again please can you clarify the comment you made on facebook about the game having "same features and more" of DBC14.
There's no issue if it doesn't but I think it's better not to mis-lead people intentionally or otherwise.

Mike will need the "whole of August" to answer your question Barmy. Oh.....and to develop the missing third of the game....called "fielding".

Poor attempt mate to get out of this. WE aren't asking you for info, sorry. Its you who said that stuff on fb. Either stand by your statement (in clear language of course, not a long post that runs around the bush and completely misses the point) or accept that it was a false claim. A bit of 'yes' or 'no' that has got nothing at all to do with 'not letting you do the tasks at your hand'. As simple as that.

And in order to make the unretracted statement that you have 'all of DB14's features except career mode' you would have to know that all those things are 'in' already.

If you don't know what's in the game, why make a reply on Facebook making a comparison on features?

My message remains the same ALL will be revealed in September.

Which wasn't the message you wrote on Facebook yesterday.

If you're not revealing anything until September, what's the issue in retracting the comment, saying you spoke too soon and moving on?

Too late....damage done. To the game AND your reputation.
