Really like the spin update looks much better than '14 however from 20-30 minutes of bowling in the nets it seemed like leg breaks spun significantly less than the other three side spin deliveries(off break, googly, doosra) when hitting max revs (eg 2.8k). Other than that real good.

Spin bowling looks great. The trick now will be getting the AI right so that it turns loads on dust bowls in Asia (and on dry day 5 pitches in Aus/Eng etc) , but doesn't turn as much as the video shows on day 1/2 in Aus/Eng...

Is it just me who thinks that the dancing down the wicket shots animations still look unimpressive just like it was in dbc14?

@Rob Stanworth Yeah looking forward to experiencing the effects of pitches, how they affect the strategies I have to deduce for myself and my team. One way of providing quality variety would be to let the pitch affect the ball properties strongly and consider the bowler & batsman's skill a lot more too. It was there in DBC14 but not enough to feel the polar differences while batting. It felt like I could get away with almost the same play style every time.

Plus hopefully we get a pitch report graphic or atleast just show the pitch so we could understand the pitch on which we are going to play on. But the way it works, it's usually pitch report first and team selection with regards to that. (Helps if we are the captain in career mode.)

In DBC 14 I couldn't see a perceptible difference in playing on different pitches. To me all the pitches and pitch surfaces played the same and that needs to be addressed in DBC 17. Batting on a flat pitch should be easy for batsmen to pile on runs with edges coming at a premium, a green/seaming pitch should make it difficult for batsmen with the new ball and batting gradually getting easier as the ball gets older, the spin-friendly turners should make life difficult against spinners etc.

So good to see a buzz around the forums with the new game approaching this xmas!

Moved place so can't get online at the moment. Question for someone who may have been playing, everything looks fantastic, was just curious if anyone has batted against spin and edges it onto there pads and it popped up?

Bat-Pad kinda style!

As always @BigAntStudios loomsnto drawer!

*loomsnto apparently is spell check for looks!

I noticed that after playing a shot you move back through the stumps, or stand behind the stumps. The animation arent right there.

If u guys can't even recognize what's wrong with the advancing shot animations , you guys have never seen a classy batsman playing down the wicket!
