How the fearsome tweak you did that @Dutch

Steam version: the patches will be bought together and released for consoles: a heck of a lot of work has been and is going on: these guys don't know what Sunday is!!

Can you also provide some feedback on glances & flicks to fine leg and long leg areas along with glide (or run the ball down to) 3rd man shots? They are missing on consoles and would be great if they are patched in to the PC version and will eventually make their way on to the console versions.

I am sure they are there: the problem is I am shit at batting so cant play all the shots but others in the proces have confirmed that you can play to all parts of the field now....

That's good to know I would rather Big Ant take their time and roll out a patch which addresses most of the issues.

DBC 17 PC batting vid: [Diff medium, IND vs ENG t20] [ pardon for the video quality, think i messed up on the encoder settings, the actual game looks crisp]

Had this amazing chase in a IND vs ENG t20, on a crumbly soft pristine pitch after restricting ENG for 149, started the chase, had to watch out cause these crumbling pitches can be tricky more so if they are cracked but this one being in pristine condition was ok to bat on, if you play watchfully, rahane and rohit started confidently just when thinks were looking good, Jordan came into the attack and got Rohit to inside edge one to his pad and then to his stumps and kohli walked in, started cautiously but again jordan struck in his next over getting kohli an outside this time, raina came in and with rahane stitched a cautious partnership, though rahanae had luck in his favour with umpire over turning an appeal when he was LBW, having no DRS for the match really makes it fun and once more just when things were being set up for a push, rahanae made a bad call and got raina run out, Dhoni walked in and straight away started dead batting the match to the death overs as runrate climbed rahanae looking to get a move on perished going for a drive inside edging to the stumps, young Pandya walked and immediately started hitting the ball hard and he up the ante a bit, with a couple of boundaries and MSD who had so far plodded to 4 of 11 got going in the 17 th over, once again the game turned tables when moeen ali came in the 18th over and removed both pandya by a doosra stumping and then got jadeja to edge, and the game moved to MSD zone, 29 of 12, and Eng bought their best man Jordan for the penultimate over, but Dhoni showed once again why he is reputed for this bashing jordan for 4 6 4 in the first three balls, but jordan came back in the over by bowling full on the offside and mixing it up, not giving a run, however MSD and Ashwin stole a single in the last ball. even though it was a by afterbeing hit to the body trying to scoop, and the game boiled down to last over 14 of 6, could be anybody's game, stoke was given the final over, and he started it of with a dot, fooling MSD with a slow short one on the offstump that didnt cliimb, 14 of 5 to win, dhoni bashed the next one over for 4 and then stokes bowled the next one predictably short and wide and MSD launched in to it with every thing depositing over the stands. 4 of 3 to win with MSD roaring, game over NO, stokes stuck the next ball as MSD going for the finish misplace the ball straight to deep point, 4 of 2 BK walked a thin figure with a match in his hands, stokes erred next ball by bowling a half volley as BK delightfully chipped it over for 4 and India had coasted to victory.

Are the default fields any different to the console versions (I.e. Less aggressive)?

So much better!

@grkrama thanks for that (and your review on Steam). If only England could get Kohli out so cheaply in real life. The game looks fantastic, though. Can't wait to give it a go...unfortunately I've been sent to the US for two weeks so will not be able to put many hours in until Feb.

Has Chris Jordon got a beer gut or do my eyes deceive me, anyway looks good very good thanks for taking the time to up load.[DOUBLEPOST=1484519642][/DOUBLEPOST]

Would have been good to see those career stats anything to hide? Averages any good?

Batting looks a massive improvement to the console version. The aggressive AI fields is still a concern though. The Reqd RR was 11+ and the AI still had those 2 or 3 fielders outside the circle fields instead of having 5 men on the boundary and cutting off boundaries. Another example was the last over with 14 needed and 2 slips in and just 2 fielders out!

Maybe AI fields will also be addressed by the time the patch is pushed to the consoles as having ultra-aggressive fields when the Reqd rate is high in shorter formats takes away from immersion. In Tests also the AI fields need to reflect the match situation. If the batting team is plundering runs and is comfortably placed, more conservative and defensive fields should be used.

I wouldn't mind having a look at how those stats are shown @Dutch

Ya Ai attacking fields shouldnt be there in death overs, if you watch penultimate over against jordan to dhoni it actually had fields spread, think it changed field with stokes cause stokes was doing well in the match so far. im sure bigant would fix them like last time.

I see!

So I'm guessing this will allow changing of bats during career? I think I'm going to be swayed on this PC version, unless a patch for console versions is coming soon.
