Cricket 24 - General Discussion

@Wealey @blockerdave @wasteyouryouth Hey guys apologies for pinging you but I recognise your names from the past so hope all is well. I asked her a few weeks ago or maybe longer what the state of C24 is and if it's worth getting so I'd like to ask you guys what your honest opinion is?

I understand it won't be some huge change from C22 but I'm mostly interested in the gameplay side of things, how is bowling to the AI? Can you get an authentic experience and varied dismissals? I love a bowling experience where you get many nicks whether they carry or not, just stuff that resembles realism. Batting I feel has never been THAT bad in most cricket games it's just bowling to AI that I'm concerned about.

Thanks and once again hope you've all been well!
Hey mate, hope you're well.

I've just played 2 very fun test matches. Bowling to AI is certainly the weakest point, for a couple of reasons: spin remains overpowered, and seam underpowered - this holds in pretty much all conditions. It's better than it was, certainly better than my memory of C22, but still there. Pitches wear at least now, but the behaviour is not necessarily what you expect.

There is variety of dismissals across matches, but also you can get a lot of repetition within a particular inns if you are bowling to the same field.
 
I wish AI spin bowling was better. 95% of deliveries turns towards stumps which mean RH LS is bowling a Wrong'un 5 times an over to a RH batter. Doesn't make any sense.
It will depend on the bowler. Some will bowl more wrong'uns.

On balance it's better, problems @blockerdave mentions re bowling to the AI are fair.

Hello mate! Hope you are well.. can only echo what the others have said. I personally think you can get a very good game of cricket from it. If you played through a 5 match series you would see a lot of variation in dismissals and then continue to see things you haven’t before.

The issues with spin I personally have sorted with the sliders but that’s hassle for some and I love all the bowling animations in this one.

Fielding I tend to ignore for the most part and don’t let it bother me.
