no sarcasm at all, it was a genuine question.
i had a similar issue in 1.08 - huge reduction in edge variation, whether catchable or otherwise, as well as edges going in the wrong direction. i couldn't remember with certainty, but i think i started to notice it 1.07, but definitely saw it in 1.08. However the last game I played in 1.07 (where i thought i started to see the issue) and also in the only game i played in 1.08 i was in a custom stadium with a lot of custom adboards but specifically some incorrectly sized adboards. as plenty of other people (such as
@WealeyH and
@Rhone) who's opinions I trust said they weren't getting this in 1.08, I wondered if the amount (and bad sizing) of the adboards were affecting the in-game memory and causing weird results (like the game registering an edge but not able to calculate it correctly).
i've only bowled one inns in 1.09 (but a long one, way over 100 overs) and it was back to normal - plenty of edge variation and all in the right direction. I'm playing in a custom stadium but it has default adboards, so i thought if you were still having the same problem and had custom stadium/custom adboards, it might support my theory. but i guess not.
