Just to go thru the bugs/annoyances once more:
1. Runs scored off no balls not counted
2. During LBW shout, batsmen can't run a legbye
3. Bowling speed ridiculously slow
4. Wide ball calls are ridiculous
5. not out/out screen switched
6. Commentators say out or not out before the TV replays end
7. Ball thrown to keeper only
8. No misfields by fielders
9. wicket keeper and slip catchers react at the last moment while taking a catch. Very unrealistic. Feels like watching the movie "Matrix"
10. commentators shout "And he is out" when the batsmen gets beaten. has happened to me lot of times.
11. AI does not score according to match situations. Even if 30 runs are needed off 2 overs, the AI plays defensively. This one really takes the fun away.
12. Some catch animations are horrendous. Fielders take catches near their shoestrings.
13. Commentary is monotonous. Why do I have to hear "They are in disarray" when there is mix-up running between wickets or "Its all over" all the time after the match is over?
Completely agree with all. To add some more annoyances -
14. Batsmen have super wrists.
15. Too much swing can be applied *after* ball has been delivered.
16. Some balls went through the batsman. Not between bat and body, but through
17. Too fast gameplay
18. Bowling meter is useless. If you don't stop it, it doesn't give you a no-ball
19. Ball physics don't seem realistic. Ball drops with a plonk and rolls
20. Lightning fast outfield
21. cartoony graphics for a 2005 game
22. Very few bowling and batting animations. All players play the shot the same way and bowl the same way
23. headache inducing camera angles
24. wicketkeeper collects the ball and breaks wickets in about 0.1 micro seconds giving me no chance to make it
25. lack of a dive button
26. I hate the sledging animation. Looks like crows are crowing.
And a big annoyance for me is -- Brett Lee's stupid smile is pasted on his face. I smack him for a four and he's with the stupid smile on his face.
Don't freakin have smiling faces at all times on the players
