Figured a way to effectively get boundaries on off side with drives and cuts. Ball bounce and shot force sliders upped to 80 each
Yeah batting is tedious and I don't get it. I also played AUSvWI and I barely got any boundaries through offside in the 40 overs I batted but the on the other hand I loaded up a game with me as SRLvWI and I was hitting boundaries all over the place however my batsmen was about 4ft away from leg stump (I wanted the CPU to bowl me to see spring stumps in action).
So I'm not sure if the ball has to be really far from you to get it through the gap or what because I hit three 4s in a row at one point and if that is the case it shouldn't be because not all 4s come from a wide delivery irl
This is the confusing part for me. I'm having a very similar experience as you where the ball goes to a few select spots in the field on the off side (e.g., Cover or Point) and if there's a fielder placed there, the only option to hit the boundary is through the gap between mid off and cover fielder. But we're seeing other who apparently are having a different experience where they don't seem to be facing similar challenges.
Also we're seeing different things. Lot of folks are suggesting ball bounce to be lowered (around 30) for an optimal experience whereas in @Harigoks' case ball bounce up to 80 leads to a better experience. Same with @Punk_Sk8r having to bat way outside leg in order to hit the boundary on the off side. This leads me to believe whether there are multiple versions of the game available. In my case when I go to credits I see the version displayed as vLocal along with my psn id. I had a version no. with '1.bunch of zeros and a number' but after a patch a few days ago, 'vLocal' is the version I see. I tried to check if the version I have is the latest version and I'm getting the message that the application I've installed is the latest version. Very weird state of affairs, and no closer to solving the problem.
