Just a little perspective, it's only a 6 over game!
Yes, it is only 6 overs, but the fact remains that
if the difficulty levels stay the same or similar to what they are now, then batting will be too easy. Hell most of us have only played it today and are finding its easy. What happens when we've been playing it (the full game) for say, a month? There are other glaring issues that will really hurt the game, such as the poor AI bowling and the AI's crazy running between the wickets. I really do hope these things are sorted, because if they are, then we have one hell of a game on our hands. Sure, you can play online, but I do believe I read somewhere you can't save test matches?! I don't want to play 10/20 over slogs all the time and realistically, you'll need to save test matches to finish them against someone who is reasonably good at the game.
To not be completely negative, the little touches they've added, like edges not carrying, are fantastic and really do make it feel like you're playing Cricket.
From what I've read and heard about the Transmission guys, they do seem more willing to talk and listen to us, so I'm somewhat hopeful that the really big problems will be sorted. If they aren't though, we'll be relying on the patchers once again or just not bothering at all.

Actually, I should add to this batting being too easy and AI bowling being poor thing. Finally played a game where Siddle bowled an over on what I would call a good length and it was suddenly more difficult. Perhaps it is just down the to length the AI bowls and not the actual batting itself being the problem. Because I was in the mentality of playing a shot a ball due to pretty much everything else being half volleys, full tosses and short balls, I suddenly found myself mistiming shots and getting thick edges. I scored 1 run off that over and that was a streaky edge to third man.
Hmmmm.....
