So posting videos here gets deleted, reason saying its general discussion.. I create a new thread to share my videos that also gets locked.. Nice forum.. Now just block me too.. Not sure why there needs to be such a strict rule when the content are related to the game only..

1-0 down in a T10 series against USA. Made 95 and lost by 9 wickets! Game couldn’t crash (For the first time in ages) whilst I was collapsing in the middle overs of the second match could it? No. Had to collapse after Jamie Overton struck four consecutive boundaries in the final over to take us to the verge of passing 100 this time!

With regards to fielding, still seeing so many slides (both AI and human fielding) where they come across and their legs/feet touch the rope and become fours. It appears Big Ant has simply not motion-captured a forwards (head and body first) dive with tap back. If they have they don't seem to have used it.

Also, the speed that outfielders run is completely one uniform pace. When you see real cricketers in a T20 or ODI getting close to the ball (say 20m) they really pick up the desperation and pace for a good 5-6 strides to try and stop the ball getting to the rope. I'm not sure how hard it would be to tie pace to the proximity to the ball in the programming side of things, but it would possibly help.

If they ever put one in, the forward dive could be tied to a button and used for running straight after the ball towards the rope and for players sprinting around the boundary and accompanied by a little extra speed burst in the last 10-20m of proximity.

Anything would be better than the sliding legs going over the rope which almost never happens in real life.

I hope they can add a few animations to fix it. They did add some bowling animations post launch.

I was playing ps4 play now.
Fielding needs to improve, I was sprinting after the ball and wasn't making a difference.
Has anyone able to duck under a bouncer.

@Nithin Antony I've been tinkering with ODI settings as thats all I play and I've had some varied results with the following

Match Difficulty: Hardest
Difficulty: Legend
Strike Timing: 20
Run Rate: 20
Pitch Bounce: 35/40 (can't remember)

I've had good results, beautiful plays and misses and total off top of my head in the 4/5 games I tried were: 144-10, 207-10, 255-6, 158-10. Need to test and maybe tinker some other stuff like reskilling teams as these games were with me as AUS bowling to NZ

Because there's only room for a few popular people here

It wouldn't be so bad if it even just kicked in a bit as your player got closer to the ball, but yeah on semi-auto fielding, sprint seems redundant.

Fielding overall looks like an area where Big Ant just can't seem to conceptualize good game mechanics.

One thing I've noticed watching the ashes today is how far the city is from the scg. In Cricket 22 the cbd buildings are right next door. I'm guessing its just some creative liberties taken to add something around the ground to make it a bit more interesting.

 

[Lassana_Dias]

Whos waiting for the patch over here which would fix everything broken and add tons of new stuff.

Have a look at Junction oval in game. That's even worse. Backs onto Albert Park lake in real life with only a few buildings on the hill side of the ground. In game the ground is placed in the middle of the CBD

Yeah, I feel with Junction Oval it was more a case of time than lack of effort, there aren't many ariel shots of grounds (ala PES) so they probably thought it wasn't worth the time to put albert park in the bg. Would've been nice though. Because JO isn't next to a city lol.

If those are your expectations for the next patch, I suggest lowering your bar just a tad.

Welcome to the BA family. We've been playing all BA cricket games hoping for the same. Lol.

I more worried what they will break in the new patch.

What more can they break?
