Ashes Cricket General Discussion

[cricket_online]

At the moment I would take just the following two things to be fixed...

1. Stats - Have yet to play a longish career since DBC 14 days due to stats issues.

2. Default AI Fields - More realistic default AI fields, especially in shorter formats.

If Big Ant can fix these two items, I would be more than happy.

One thing I can say is stats in career are right

They are not. Unbeaten 100s and 50s are not recorded, and there's already a bug reported regarding the same. Also check out thread created by @Rhone about the same subject. In DBC 14 nearly 20-25% of my 100s were unbeaten ones and for them not to be tracked in my career as a specialist batsman is a big no-no. And as for "User Stats", they are not tracked correctly if you resume a saved match (e.g., Tests).

Edit: Here's the career stats bug from the Bugs Reporting thread...

Actually im sure BA didn't just use the pros for animations and used them for gameplay tips too and then some random club players seem to know what would make the gameplay more realistic

Seeing as we started testing the game with the AI slogging every over and being rolled for less than 100 every innings with no LBW's. I'm pretty sure they didn't.

Anyway it doesn't take a cricket genius to work out a front foot prod shouldn't go for six and constantly driving on the up on a green wicket shouldn't be risk free.

I have played higher than club. But any Cricket fan would identify most these issues.

which shot are you referring to as 'a front foot prod'? the cover drive with the face open down to third man?[DOUBLEPOST=1514925829][/DOUBLEPOST]

In all honesty though, i have never played against the AI as there are 2 other cricketing loving people in the house that i only play them so i can't comment on the ai but human vs human the gameplay is unbelievably realistic.

Well yeah it would be realistic as two humans are playing it!

If you only play PvP you won't have seen the offending front food prod shot as it's AI only. It's one of the most obviously "gamey" aspects of the AI batting and just looks awful considering all the great animations in the game now.

AI played this shot against me and i have no idea how to play it myself when i bat. Looks sooooo good! Sadly it was a Marsh bro just punching me like that for four!

Very concerning if the logos/downloads from community change the way the game is played. Infuriating to say the least.

 

[sonimrajk]

Iv been doing some testing....

We could have another DBC 17 logo issue going on...

Something is odd!!

Please provide your inputs to bigant team if this turns out to be true.

Not convinced, I have one logo on my other console. Summin odd though

I have ALL the logos and have always said i do not experience some of the stuff others do. My game runs pretty well. Some of the other testers have experienced very different games from me.

little bit surprising when we haven't seen a pc patch when their the easiest to do

When I was playing career mode at the start I found batting was a lot easier. When the latest patch came out I also downloaded teams for the first time for the BBL tournament so I'm not sure if the patch or the downloaded teams made a difference but I found the difficulty to be much harder for batting.

That, or I'm getting more shite at the game. Probably the latter.

So I've been reading community creations might affect gameplay? Has this happened before in other games? Funnily I was playing SAF vs SRL test match and I think my players bat logos got replaced and every one had a plain bat and I got 0 nicks whilst bowling for 100+ overs. Then I re-downloaded the teams after deleting them so they had the bat sponsors etc and I played an ODI and I was getting nicks left right and center when bowling...was one of the best cricket matches I've had bowling wise!
