I had a good amount of play and misses and got out LBW just like in real life. Bowling also felt a bit different with the variety of wickets I had. Starting a test series today to find out how it evolves. The only gripe with the gameplay with arcade controls would be that the special shots haven't been fixed even now. I think we will see that only in the next game
I've felt that bowling becomes easier on arcade controls as you can pre-set the line and length and focus on releasing the ball perfectly. I believe it also ignores the line accuracy and length accuracy proficiencies of bowlers on arcade controls. Pro controls deliver the best experience for me as it takes into account a bowler's line and length into it as well, so it is easier to bowl a better line and length with someone like Bumrah. My only qualm with the game is that I am barely getting any bowleds, LBWs, and caught behinds while bowling on pro controls. Tried changing the difficulty and sliders as well but no luck so far.
I try to keep the jump and release window as small as possible which results in some poor deliveries. I am getting variety of dismissals too. Sometimes getting smacked too. Just finished an ODI where the AI set a target of 285 on a turning wicket which ended up being a great match.
They are not fixing the fielding and it's annoying. I noticed some of these bugs too. Every time they release a patch, the fielding is getting worse and worse. @JNT BA
So long as the Indian market are happy with the shiny licensed content and IPL features nobody asked for, that's the direction the game will go, it's easier for Bug Ant to model a stadium and some player faces than it is to rewrite their broken mess of a 10 years worth of mix and match code.
