Cricket Heroes - testing & feedback

[hedger_14]

whenever I play a match, first ball as the bowler runs into bowl, the game crashes :S

@hedger: Try putting the commentary audio up - it's a stupid bug, but I'll fix it later tonight.

also, game crashes whenever you use a referral.

And I really need match practice, I suck xD

 

[kurtkz]

@hedger: Were you bowling or batting when referring? And is it for catches, lbws or both?

 

[hedger_14]

batting, it happened twice. First was an LBW, second was caught behind.

I know when you don't use the referral, it's fine but if you use it, it crashes.

Not sure with bowling.

And also, how do you bat with cone?

And I think the game's just become a little two arcade for my liking.

 

[kurtkz]

@hedger: Do you mind elaborating on the arcadey bit?

 

[hedger_14]

Yeah, I thought about that and it's hard to explain. I sort of just hoped you'd understand what I'm saying.

The game sort of just goes a bit fast compared to before and it sort of just has that arcade feel to it now, rather than the simulation feel that I had with the game before. I haven't tried changing the game speed to slow although I might try that.

 

[kurtkz]

Hmm, try lowering the speed and also make sure that the Frame Skip is set to Minimal. Maybe that'll do the trick?

While everyone waits for the next update, I thought I'd put up an update about the piracy story

A good friend managed to sort out the offender last week - he roped in the help of his police friend and confronted the shop owner. After showing proof that he also worked on the game, the owner caved in and destroyed (read: burned) all the pirated copies. The End (hopefully)

A BIG thanks again to everyone (I won't name names ) involved in bringing this guy to justice. Score one for the little guys

Cheers!
Kurt

Kudos to that person to get it sorted.

@kurtkz: I think the Test match/First class batting needs a bit more tweaking. I notice that highly skilled batsman have low strike rates of around 20 or 30 (and sometimes even less) just to remain settled or focused even in beginner difficulty (usually the strike rate should be around 40-70 depending on the conditions)

 

[kurtkz]

@itay: Is that during simulations or arcade mode?

 

[itay128]

@itay: Is that during simulations or arcade mode?

Arcade mode.

 

[kurtkz]

@itay: Thanks I'll fix that up for the next release.
