Don Bradman Cricket 14 gets new update on Consoles
Users who have been following the progress of Don Bradman Cricket 14 on the PC version might have been feeling a bit left out of late, but that's about to change with a bug fixing and gameplay tweaking update for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game being made available today.
While this patch doesn't get the 'Patch 3' designator, and as such does not yet include features like co-op play that are planned for that future update; it does have some worthwhile improvements that make the game much more enjoyable to play. My personal favourite change is to the stump physics - which has the stumps uprooting themselves more often while bowling, which makes getting a wicket that much more satisfying.
Plus, the patch fixes some bugs that many users were facing, including fielders that walked to the ball and a bug where appealing led to the game freezing up.
Full change-log follows,
The patch will be rolling out shortly on consoles, and that batsman transparency toggle feature would be a good way of being able to know that you've got the update - which is usually a process of just starting the game while your console is connected to the internet and waiting for a prompt to install the patch.
People playing the Steam version of the game on PC will already have this patch and don't need to do anything to get it.
