Steam patch out

• Improved overthrows
• Improved fielding sidesteps
• Improved fielding online
• Improved stumps physics
• Corrected bowling look-around
• Corrected pitch wear at end of day
• Corrected No Ball detection
• Improved Stability

That seems like a good update!! Waiting for it to be available on the PS5. The side step elimination, pitch wear and stumps physics change sounds awesome!!

Do you find that the AI just will not attempt an attacking shot of any kind? They mostly just hit it straight to short mid wicket.

They play the odd good shot. I rarely see an aerial or aggressive stroke, but then the batsmen don't hang around long enough to see it really. You know that with all the prodding around and late cutting everything (what's all that about?) they are going to nick one and be caught eventually.

Real spin is played mostly off the front foot, drives along the ground and sweeps. I see very few, if any sweeps of the ball

You can wait 35 minutes for HD.

Had to add some music otherwise I'd get a copyright strike because I was listening to Sinead O'Connor.

Few wickets looked decent tbf but safe to say the AI once again can’t play spin. The run out shot was fine like to see more of that but in the back of my head I’m thinking has he been run out because he’s facing a spinner

I think that's because sweeps are tied to special shots and they are pretty much turned off in Tests..

Why don't they just send a bare minimum patch for Xbox just so that it get approved then subsequently send a big better patch?

Because I bet Microsoft has failed even the small patch. BA silence is deafening at least on C22 they said when xbox had failed patches. Plus I bet its not a priority for them to test 10s of patches. Very frustrating though. Last time on C22 I think it was like 6/8 weeks until Xbox caught up.

I don't mind if the ratios of shots are a bit out. It would be nice to see a few more sweeps and down the pitch, knocking the ball around. I know it's tough, but as we see from C19, they've done it before where AI can play spin and it looks fine. Something got dreadfully nerfed in C22, and I remember being disappointed by it then.

Considering how good the AI is at finding the fielders I don't know why they can't find a gap every now and then.

I had the AI going at 1.95 per over in an ODI game when I bowled with spinners. Chahal took 7 for 13 on a grassy deck. I don't remember AI being this bad against spin in any of the previous games

Yeah it's an issue. I never really go looking for it and seem to get away with it. But it's no doubt a problem.

What I don't get is I didn't have one of @Ken Tremendous ugly shots to keeper once yesterday or before.

Maybe it's because I have lowered all batsmen skills. No clue.. but it needs tweaking for sure


Grassy like last game is the main issue

Yeah, I don't remember them being almost unable to score.

That last patch did wonders with some proper playfaces for licensed players. It seems they added some new hairstyles too.

Here are a few examples:



Kyle Mayers has his ponytail now. Big Ant finally added the Reece Topley Mullet. Now they just need to update his face. Will Jacks also got a proper face and Tymal Mills actually looks like Tymal Mills.

Strangely enough, in the release build of the game I didn't find things quite so bad.

Love the joffra. Just needs a big gold chain or two

Spin had been disabled and at the flick of a switch just like that ABSOLUTE CARNAGE
