Yeh atleast before pc release

I think the patch will release after pc release, don't think so will come before.

The platinum trophy on PS4 is still unobtainable and the games been out for weeks? When Are they going to fix it?

I went on Steam and saw the "Ashes" and bought it feeling a little excited.

Turns out this is another game altogether and there ain't much cricket innit!

Quite a good game tho'. ha

So you mean to say you thought the Ashes game would be only $0.99 cents? Also the game would somehow have a shooter icon? .. Heights of stupidity Just joking no offense meant

With regards to lack of edges, one thing i have noted is that when shot choice is poor, the ball will not even take an outside edge of the bat.

I will try to make sense of it.

I undertand if shot choice is poor, it misses the bat but sometimes the ball passes through outside edge of the bat as if it did not touch the bat. See below videos for better understanding.

It seems to me that the coding is such that poor shot choice means no connection with the bat. If the result would be an outside edge, it would add to edge frequency and be less forgiving for poor shot choice (right now the worst scenario in poor shot choice is that you miss the ball). It seems as if edges are mostly related to timing, that too late timing. Edges should occur due to poor shot choice as well. In the above videos, the ball passes through the bat's outside edge but no edge is registered.

I hope i am making sense.

But offence delivered anyway. Well done.

And no, I am not so StOOpid as to spend £40 on a tarted up DLC/patch. Or even $0.99! ha

Is it just me or have the player names in commentary have gone down considerably? For e.g. I couldn't find common Indian surname Pandey (like Manish Pandey) in the commentary list.

One of my favourite things from DBC franchise was how BA took the pain of adding names and surnames of us commoners. But this time around they have even missed some of the international players, have to say I'm a bit let down on that front.

I couldn't find virat or Kohli.

A quick question from someone who's thinking of getting the game.

How is the commentary this time round.

One of my biggest issues with DBC 17 is the badly timed commentary, not worried about it being repetitive but it annoyed me to be told "on debut" when it's not or "end the over as they began" when it's not. etc.

Does the commentary in Ashes actually fit whats happening?

Cricket being a game which is played for a long duration and being a game where numerous scenarios/situation raise, commentary will be repeated and irrelevant at most times. It’s no difference in Ashes Cricket as well.

Commentary is still bad. [DOUBLEPOST=1512636370][/DOUBLEPOST]

I don't mind commentary being repetitive. But at least, it should be accurate.

You can download county sides with corrected names, player roles and stadiums from The SFC Chris. Still a work in progress though.
