Cricket 24 - General Discussion

I really hope they stop fiddling with fielding now and focus on other issues like weather and pitch conditions - then I might buy the game.

Yeh they are all too high even the licensed teams I’ve had to nerf them all and get a much better game with genuine wickets rather than literally nothing happening until a scripted wicket comes

Think I've found the issue so will raise a report with BA... but it seems unless you have personally edited a player (eg. given them their appropriate bat or edited ratings) so they appear as a "My Player" rather than a default player within the game, the default option is their ratings are replaced. I can see why BA have done it (if it was deliberate), but it basically forces you to edit every single player BEFORE you start downloading custom teams, so you're not left with a bunch of players rated 80+ on the same team.

Special shots are not triggering very often now, anyone experienced this one.....i m playing mostly t20 lately...its not happening every time but still does happen frequently

Among the special shots, I use the sweep frequently. I experienced the same that at times it is not getting triggered and some other shots being played out. In had never faced such issue previously with C22.

Is there a possibility of launching this game on iPad in the foreseeable future?

 

[noys390]

It's unfortunate that we can't have both. Currently it is very difficult for a batsman to hit a square cut or late cut or even a fine leg-glance to a spinner. Thick powered edges are being taken out from far off which are impossible in real life. Even the properly timed shots are being taken out. The wicket-keeper is extremely over-powered. This is a bad trade-off between having the Keeper 'Not to do stumping' Or ' the batsman Not able to hit freely behind wicket to spinners'.

Glimpse of the super-human keeper:

Nah i doubt it, it's 60gb file and requires a powerful device. Just get a steam deck if you want to play portable.

I never thought I’d see the day when the official licensed players weren’t the overpowered ones but the players imported from C22 trump even them. I‘m pretty sure I noticed a couple of them have over a hundred in technical or defence.

I don’t know if someone raised this bug back in C22 but custom made players often have hideous fielding ratings in the manage squad and pick a lineup section even if you give them solid ratings for them. I have no idea if this affects their overall rating or actual fielding skills in game.

I assume the default players are being replaced by the community created ones when you overwrite them and the community ones have the overtuned skills for the most part. ‘Deleting’ the licensed players manually has reverted them to their on-disk ratings for now (which isn’t always lower, I had Rossouw jump from 81 to 84 when I deleted him but such instances have been rare from what I can see).

The solution to this I can think of for unlicensed players is to overwrite just their identity and visuals or else download them as a custom player and copy their appearance alone to the unlicensed player whilst renaming them manually.

EDIT - forgot that players usually tend to be overwritten without any prompts unless you’ve already downloaded them. I guess that takes the overwriting solution out. @V13w3r ’s solution to edit the unlicensed players so that they form a link first between your edit and the original unlicensed/licensed player and then going for the overwrite is the way to go after testing.

Hadn't been brave enough to "delete" anyone, I will do so in the cases I can recall they were "replaced" and I thought the ratings were overpowered. Thanks. Think for unlicensed players I'll just be going down the avenue of replacing them all and editing their ratings where necessary...

I think there was a bug on C22 where if you created a custom player fielding ratings didn't add to their overall. Something like that.

You only get the option to delete licensed players with the ones that had been replaced or edited by someone else, just went through the process of deleting some international players and the IPL ones.

That sounds about right. Feels weird to see a custom Yuvraj with his fielding in the 30s.

Were Dane Vilas and Migael Pretorius licensed in C22? @wasteyouryouth

Just encountered a situation where their on-disk versions in the current game were unlicensed with random names (and in the case of Vilas had a nice face) but downloading your creation for them turned them into a licensed player (and in Vilas’ case he got a generic face because why not?).

This is one of the strangest things I’ve encountered and I’m only delving into the Academy for one night.

They might have been from The Hundred (Vilas) and CPL (Pretorius).

I think Dane Vilas has retired anyway.
