Cricket 19 General Discussion

In case I have missed out on this info on previous pages, is the game based on previous Don Bradman & Ashes games or is it complete reboot/made from scratch?
Based on previous games
 
I said before, but I believe the bowling mechanics were inherently flawed. On certain pitches you could not bowl the ball to hit the top of off-stump. Full ball is too full, adding the shorter variation was still too full. Good length was too short, adding the fuller variation was still too short.
Essentially, there was a good range of the stumps's height that you could not hit.
The point you are saying can only be reasonable when you should be able to play the short balls on front foot pull shots on front foot like dbc 17, or eles it will spoil the game play.
 
Most important is the pitch marker for online which is not accurate atall currently.
 
I play only classic controls i love it still will like to share the the issue which standard control has with spin red balls spinning in it does not connect just hope this issue not neglected in cricket 19.
 
It makes sense to call it Cricket 19. If it’s just called Ashes then like FIFA World Cup Games people who aren’t familiar with the brand etc will be put off because they’ll think the game is extremely limited (Like WC games are).

I just hope that they haven’t regressed like they have at times previously. Averages calculating correctly from the get go and Career skill points not randomly maxing out after five years would be a start.

I’ve been hyped over previous games but sorry if I’ve turned a little cynical, I’m not counting my chickens. I’ll judge the game not what the people who make it are saying about it. I’ve got huge respect for their efforts, commitment and what they’ve achieved but ultimately they're in the habit of releasing broken games.

Fingers crossed that the community get what they deserve... an exhaustive, immersive game with longevity, accuracy and optimum enhancements on previous games.
 
I hope they have improved the batting
Like to have every shot in the game and they look realistic eg upper cut , reverse ramp square cut
Have players play unorthdoxs shots that are good at them eg Maxwell or Butler
I would like to see advancing down the wicket look more realistic and also have option to either attack or defend/block when advancing
Hopefully there will be more batting styles and celebrations
Bowling
It would be good if there is more variety in the bowling like line and length or even couple of different types of slower balls or cutters
Fielding/catching
I hope fielding,catching has a big upgrade in terms of better fields,putting best fielders where they should be, slips/wicketkeeping catching improved and outfielders diving and sliding realistic,more run out chances
Pitch/outfields
I hope the pitches are realistic for that venue and have different impacts on the game eg uneven bounce you might get one ball hit the glove or handle or one stay low and hit your pads
I would like to see outfields fast,slow if it has been raining then it should be slow
Drs
I hope review system has been fix and hotspot,snicko are realistic now and hopefully we have more different reviews for dimissals like if the ball carried to the fielder,edge down leg side or clipped his pants,stumpings
I'm looking for to player academy and facetime, it would be good to have every player and team be realistic , I hope that players skill level impact the game and there are different player speeds too and I would like to see more equipment in the game like rib guard, thigh guard, different types of arm guards and players having a towel in the pants or sweat bands.
That's all I have to say but I'm looking for to the game being released and Im looking forward to it
 
It would be nice to have career mode fielding, where it would stop simulating when our own player gets a fielding opportunity, i believe this system has been implicated in the mlb the show series.
 
The screenshots look amazing.

The 3rd ODI of the women's ashes is at Kent so i'm guessing there's a possibility that the ground will be in the game? i'll be over the moon if it is.
 
I hope they change the way you come down the pitch. The whole R3 click is unrealistic - its (mostly) not a premeditated shot but based on flight, length and ability. I don't use it at all.

It would be great if you had something like r1+l1 when you want to come down, and then if you press it too early the spinner can fire it down the leg side or hold it back a bit resulting in a poor shot?

I'm the same, never use it, mainly because of the fact I find it so difficult to time but also because it has always felt very clunky.

With classic controls I'd love to see advancing, whether to attack or defend, be controlled with the L stick. Of course as that is also the button for foot movement, as well as the current little shuffles you make in the crease prior to delivery, it could be difficult to have something that works for both.

Perhaps pushing down on the L stick (that's technically a separate button right?) could unlock foot movement and allow a greater range of movement at the crease (pushing forward to advance down the crease).

The screens do look good, as you’d expect for promotional stuff. Generally positive with everything discussed so far, but I’ve got to raise this one:

Really?? I presume this is meant to be Stokes, yeah? Crossed with Shergar? How long is his head?! Haha

I think it looks pretty good.

The top of his head does look a fraction long. Although it might just be the hair.

Whats with the long face!? We have to remember that since ‘Bristol’ his head has been more squashed than usual....
 
Maybe it’s just the angle and his expression, but I think it’s just something to do with the shape of his features.

All the other players I’ve seen look great, where as this one looks manually designed rather than mo-capped.
