Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

It would be at least a positive outcome if you didn't have to play the dead rubbers when you get'm in three.

Now the game just isn't recognising that England have other batsmen. The game just stops with them 7 down.

I'm now trying to lose deliberately, but that's hard when the AI want to hit anything.

Okay, just made England win the final test. The big ending - nothing. No mention of the fact the Ashes were decided at all, no urn, no cut scene - just thrown back to a glitched screen.

Are there any redeeming qualities for the game at all Matt?

I used to say the audio, but that has started glitching out on me like crazy. I like the artwork on some of the stadiums, though as I start to see things like the crowd sitting on seats on the grass at the WACA, I'm less impressed.

It's most redeeming feature is its addicting hilarity.

I didn't buy this crap, but figured I would add another email into 505 Games' already overflowing inbox with this. Let's see how/if they respond.

Dear 505 Games,

I have one simple question for you: why the flaming hell did you release Ashes Cricket 2013 in the state that it is?

It is an absolute farce. A disgrace to the grand sport of cricket. A disgrace to the blessed existence that is the Ashes. Just so you could cash in on a loyal cricket gaming community.

Everything about the game is crap. There is literally not one positive comment I could make about anything to do with this game. And I know I?m not the only one with this opinion. Have you checked out the game on metacritic? If not, here?s the link: Ashes Cricket 2013 for PC Reviews - Metacritic. Can you read that? User review rating of 0.6. A rating of 0.6!!! That would have to be the lowest rating ever! But it is deserved, the game is that bad.

All you have done is tarnish the reputation of both 505 Games and Trickstar. I know for a fact I will NEVER buy another game published by 505 Games. Can?t you see what you?re doing?

My only suggestion would be to take the game off Steam immediately. Save what little integrity you have left, and give a public apology for the crap that this game is. I hope to never see ?505 Games? and ?cricket? uttered in the same sentence again.



Thank you

A very frustrated cricket gamer

I was tempted to chuck in a "How do you sleep at night?" line, but figured I would keep it serious

I like the realistic keeper's stance there Matt...

 

[MattW]

I personally prefer fielding with both of my hands in the air.

 

[79cricket]

There's simply not enough laughing-emoticons for 79 to describe this game.

I can try guys. :rolleyes

This is worse game in history of games. Trickstar should be Ashamed of this, nightmares and Mike Feagn KFC ghost in there dreams.

PS God i have never seen a cricket game where the fielders could not catch the ball if hit in the air. I just hope Ross releasers his game soon.

 

[BigAntStudios]

Appeal early and often Matt, goodnight, glad the weekend is over!

 

[MattW]

And the crowd goes wild for AC13!

 

[79cricket]

Hoping for a good week next week Ross.

 

[Left_Hander]

Maybe the crowd brought their own chairs along? Haha!

 

[ChinamanSpin]

All I can say for this game is that it seems very realistic in terms of the scoring. England are always 8 or 9 down for not many, and Australia are racing towards a big total.

 

[ParkedTheBus]

Haha , Wonder where Fegan is . If he even dares to come here again , He will surely get massacred by all of us
