I made every player balanced and reduced their attacking shots to 10 still no good for SAF . They still smack boundary every over and this stupid weird steer to slips every second ball on length is so frustrating.
I am over these ridiculous shots of edge going to boundary in covers where as the animation is a cover drive. Boundaries every over seriously is killing it.
The bowling remains an absolute bloody joke & how anyone at BA can deem it acceptable is another unknown?
My main career is a batting all-rounder but the game scripting insists on making me bowl 20+ overs per innings for first class/test
EVERY TIME, (usually without any wickets to show for it at all). If I choose a batting all-rounder then I expect to bowl part time, not have scripting that primary schoolers could have written treat me the same as all front line bowlers. It makes me bowl all 10 overs in list A/ODI , & always all 4 overs in T20. Worse still, I'm seeing run rates of 12 per over one minute in tests, then it'll script in 2 or 3 maidens, then just take it all back again by increasing the run rate back up to over 14+ for another three or four overs, & round & round that cycle goes with the demoralisation deepening with each over.
Getting wickets is just random & there's no rhyme or reason. None of my career attributes help at all, my confidence or stamina, batter confidence or stamina, bowling to a batters weaknesses & my strengths, my perks, doing 5 gym training sessions between EVERY match, NONE of it is functional or makes any difference.
This is just something else with the career mode BA didn't have ready & they still haven't got it all working yet as none of it actively changes anything.
The career mode is just a broken dysfunctional mess.
Something has also been broken even worse with the bowling in the last 2 patches as well as I literally haven't had one wicket since. Before then, I did at least manage to pick up the odd one or two but even then it was a disheartening, frustrating chore that I'm now beginning to dread at the start of every innings. They've sucked every last bit of enjoyment out.
What's the point in simming al my bowlers innings (that's what BA are driving me towards)?? I might as well just go with a specialist batter & be completely bored with a bland, generic, badly scripted mess within 2 weeks. Top job!!
