Ashes Cricket General Discussion

[Deleted member 185125]

Calling names isn't new. I had real good experiences in the past. Not sure if history has something to do with the present responses, cos I have thanked every post of the beta thread and has been positive about all the updates provided.

I know you guys are aware of all the bugs in the game and no reminders needed. Also aware last time around the build which was tested never made it to the public as well.

Deleting this thread is the moderators call but I wish there is a forum/thread where public can just discuss things without being attacked, or do I need to look elsewhere for that as well.

Haha! Saying we were rubbish with communicating with the community.

Then gets defensive when gets a backlash.

Like you said, English isn’t your first language. So communicating is actually your issue/not what your good at.

You can’t insult a group of people and not expect a response.

@zimrahil can we scrub this thread like @wasteyouryouth suggests..

But we need a general discussion thread for members to post in. Can start a new thread but unless it’s micro managed it will just go a similar way. I think all members need to make more use of the ignore button, the report post button and think more before posting

All this them and us mindset is crazy. No one owes anyone else anything. We all can post our opinions and it is tough waiting months for a patch but let’s keep personal attacks out of the discussions please (this applies to everyone before any paranoia sets in)

You sure are posting a lot for someone who is "done" with posting here @WealeyH.

Don’t hate it here,

Just frustrated it’s constantly ruined by the same people...

I actually value your opinions, but if you can’t see how someone saying we are rubbish at communicating with the community after the hours we put in to show you guys and take all feedback in then I am really am lost

Just ignore him then.

I don't actually use the ignore button but there are definitely a few people who I just roll my eyes while I read their posts and don't take them too seriously.

I get your frustrations but I would personally be willing to put up with even full on abuse if it meant I had a chance to directly influence the development of the game like you do.

Yeah fair point, suppose just winds me up when a grown man can’t see how he has antagonised someone and actually sent out the first digs. Then others jump on the band wagon.

I’ll PM you in a bit got a question for you game related..

I thought you wanted to talk about the game? But I'm fine with some erotic roleplay as well I suppose!

The game @WealeyH sends PMs about is not a video game. I have had my fair share. It does involve a video, feathers and rope though.

So today played a coop test match with @Bigby Wolf ..Should say batting was fun...Was able to score a 50 with Root and he was connecting really well.. @Bigby Wolf scored a 50 as well with Woakes..

Here is the big wheel of Root 50..





Also this funny moment happened due to lag or net issues..The ball went for 4 byes but what happened was really funny at the time..







Also there's that U turn which the batsman seems to make after completing a run which caused a crucial run out of Cook on 35...

And forgot to tell we lost 5-6 wickets off slip catches which was incredible to see and some were damn good ones..There was one edge which was off front foot proper defensive shot..

Overall good game..We didnt bowl much as the AI started the unnecessary slogs very early in the innings..We might give ODI a go later to see how that goes..

And here is that video of Batsman revolving around the pitch.

This is what I did to counter the slow pace in the slow pitch with my women's cricket career...



Even then wasnt able to time with the slowness...

It's very tricky facing seam bowling of any kind when playing the women's version of the game. Certainly making the switch from playing with the men.

There are probably a few changes that could be made even after only playing a couple of games you notice things that don't feel right.

Yeah absolutely..BTW I have minimum and maximum speed to 60...Even then it was really slow..Some teams have decent pace for carry too WK but few dont...And in the above match AI was bowling at 83kmph and she was fast medium..

Why would u play women's cricket?

Would like to know?

Never tried it..
