[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

and I get injured after getting out on 0 in the next match. Come on, that ball was a lovely away swinger you know right? We Indians arnt good with swinging deliveries

 

[kurtkz]

Hehe, that's awesome guys rahulkhush, can you zip up your %APPDATA%\cricket heroes folder as well please? I want to make sure your saves work with the changes I'm going to release tonight.

Noooooo! Aw man, I'm sorry about that.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Was playing Career mode completely first time. So what was next? I mean once T20 tournament ends what was next? List A? FC?

 

[kurtkz]

Yeah, it goes:

T20
Pro40
FC

End of season transfers (in same group or one group higher)

Depending on whether or not your country has games (there's a full FTP) you might get selected <- this is the bit I just finished up.

 

[dancingmongoose]

Well for South Africa I would assume it's the juniors (starting point) then the seniors of the same team then the provincial (as in the FC comp with Namibia in it) and the franchise teams (with spoof names) and then finally nat team?

Will there at least be the option to choose our nationality (ie ICC where you can captain county cricket and manage zimbabwe) even if we need to play in south africa?

----------

Oh and blocking doesnt seem to work in career mode, I assume it's 'x' by default but it always just seems to be a straight drive. Either that or I'm an incredible timer of the ball

 

[kurtkz]

Yup, I need to come up with fake team names for the different countries and generate surname lists too. Each country will have 4 levels:

Club B
Club A
Provincial B
Provincial A

followed by national selection.

I think W is a defensive shot. X is defaulted to straight drive. The controls are reversed depending on what camera you're using though. Any camera from the batsman's point of view will be reversed (read: should be reversed).

 

[dancingmongoose]

Well 'w' is straight drive, hit plenty of sixes back down the ground. When playing, say, an exhibition match 'w' is block and 'x' is straight drive, so I would assume from batsman cam it's 'x' to block. So yes you're right although I meant from batsman cam. Although it seems in career both do the same thing, I'll try a lofted 'block' tomorrow, I'm off to bed for now

----------

Oh and what are you going to do about 'Premier Leagues' like the IPL and Big Bash>

 

[kurtkz]

I'm leaving those out for the time being.

 

[Pat]

I think the dab shots need to become a *lot* less risky than normal shots. I have had almost the same number of edges playing front-foot dab cover drive as I have when attempting normal cover drive.

 

[kurtkz]

Thanks, Pat, I'll make the change

 

[cricketaddict]

To be hones its difficult playing backfoot O plus E shot and so is O plus Q
