Guys I've beem reading very negative comments of the update like batting and bowling timing is broken. Is it true? Should I update to latest patch or not?

If by broken you mean people finding it hard at first and can’t be bothered to get better then yes...

Bowling is great fun. Swing has a problem but is back..

You would be missing out on my opinion if you didn’t update.[DOUBLEPOST=1524987350][/DOUBLEPOST]Yesterday, made Markram 84 overall.

Made his drive 72 a clear weakness. Just to mess around, he drives the ball lovely.

He made 58

24 of those came from edges on the drive that went for four...

It’s great to have the ability to create that now.

Give broad a tweak make him into a real rabbit ha...

In all seriousness as you bowling, he would never of hit a ton.

Glad your enjoying...[DOUBLEPOST=1524986874][/DOUBLEPOST]View attachment 208889

This pitch @Langeveldt didbt get any easier regardless of confidence so it’s minor but your right still too much.

Get warner outter there mate

I love that we can create the difference between James Vince and Ian Bell. Two very stylish batsman, one who nicks it a lot.

I'd like to see a bit more variance in the fielders, although I guess in the real game there aren't many people left who can't field well. I had Malan take a screamer today. I wondered if he was poorly rated for fielding whether he wouldnt have made it.

I played 40 over game between Queensland and SouthAustralia in Gabba ground Grassy prestine on Legend difficulty with Hard batting and medium bowling.I first batted with Queensland and enjoyed the batting .Wow super realistic now after patch. I definitely recommend this game to everyone to play. This patch transforms an arcade style game to realistic game. I request those who are suffering with new timing first please practice well and then bat with easy difficulty and either ametuer or pro.This game now accommodates all from novice player to experienced.
Though i played some lofted shots and my well timed shots even went for sixes.
I once again request the uncomfortable players to this timing first go for practice and move to easy difficulty.
And i am not saying this game doesn't have any bugs. Yes there are few issues need to be fixed and hope will be fixed in the next patch.
(Ps: Nobody even online players doesn't want an arcade game,which allows them to hit sixes to every ball without any realistic feeling).

but we also dont want a game where hitting anything to the boundary is impossible

Options are under general settings.. Welcome to Ashes cricket..

Thanks pal! Enjoying the challenge thus far!

Its damme diffeclt to hit a fast bowler for a 6s or even clear the infield but if you advance its bit easy. Maybe at some point they can fix that as well. Having said that, i love the game now.

Yeah the advance is a bit overpowered in comparison.

The normal six hitting balance right now on legend hardest is, imo, about right for a talented but conventional batsman. Bonking Steyn over his head for six isn't out of the question but your execution needs to be very good.

Not sure how to explain the below scorecard in a ODI. The game was simulated. Don’t know why Aus dint bat the full 50 overs. Yet they managed 600+ in 33 overs

Clearly wanted to give the other team a chance

how do you update to latest patch on PC Steam? Is it automatic?

Thanks!

Thanks!

In Steam right click on your game and hit properties,then go to betas tab and select the option named 'preview opt in for pre-release updates' and you're done. Steam will download necessary files (usually 22mb) and you're good to go..

Hello. Can anyone please help me with controlling the line while bowling? Whenever I select off side or leg side, its a big wide. Any tips?
