Game changer for batting

Definitely , it is a game changer for cricket 22. earlier I used to connect most of the balls in the hard difficulty. Now there are misses if not played in the direction of the balls, that makes the game much more realistic. After changing the slider, the very first bowl I played uprooted the stumps,which earlier never happened.

It really worked and changed the batting experience to the next level. Now I am able to miss the ball... Earlier 99% I can connect the ball... Now I am missing the ball getting LBW and bowled while selecting wrong angle of the shorts.

I'm really digging his camera settings too.

Just tried playing a Big XI game, my team is linked to Sri Lanka for some reason lol. This was after the academy data was corrupt and I just said f*** it and download everything again (and lost my work).

Anyone had that issue before? Can't even select a team now.

@MattW
There are stutters/frame drops when a spinner (AI) bowls during the powerplay. (In both created and licensed stadiums)
This happened after the latest hotfix.

Cricket 22 is coming to Gamepass PC.

Hopefully with some butt ugly Castore England kits too!

 

[Little Timmy]

Soon after the game released, I created my own England team. I created all the (Real) players and kits. After playing around 100 matches across formats, I decided to start afresh with a completely made up England team (But using the team/kits from before, so the same Team… if you know what I mean!). I added 11 players but it wouldn’t let me add anymore. The game then crashed and my custom team has gone! I’ve never even been near The Academy.

I usually create made up Associates or such like but now can’t even risk creating a new team to add players too. I had at least only edited their names when adding them.

I know I was effectively starting again but after all that and all the issues with this game (But I can enjoy playing it), my custom team just deleted!

Has anyone else noticed that bowling from one end of a stadium will pretty much always make the ball seam right to left, and bowling from the opposite end will make it go left to right? Like the slope at Lord's irl, but more widespread.

This is always more noticeable once the pitch starts to wear and "cracks" develop.

I tend to see it most with one over containing lots of balls being turned to leg as they move into the batter off the pitch, then the following over everything moves the other way and is left alone.

This movement is off standard deliveries with the pacers, and I've seen it across multiple stadiums in different countries.

I want to also say I saw this as far back as Ashes 17, though old timers can prolly confirm or deny that better than me.

Yeah, that's been a thing since at least Ashes, if not DBC17

I've literally never noticed this. lol. Now I won't be able to un-see it now.

It used to be that bowling the Slower delivery (opposite on the wheel to Standard) would send it the other way.

I find it happens so often I literally end up setting fields to it, knowing one end is always going to duck into a right hander, and the other end is going to send it away.

With the ball that comes in, bowling from wide of the crease, plus an inswinger, plus that movement off the pitch can make a ball go a long way, start to finish. Also, swinging the ball the opposite way to the way you know it'll seam is also fairly satisfying.

Shame the AI can just know to leave it as soon as the ball leaves my bowler's hand

Big Ant need to work on crowd noise and ambience on the next patch. It's very very low even when the slider is full and we can't hear any crowd noise.

The sound effects in the middle I quite like, but I agree, there's no real buzz around it which is disappointing.

The game needs that "Lord's hum"
