Don Bradman Cricket 14 - Issues and Anomalies after patch 2 [PS3/360]

[cricket_online]

Mode: Casual
Match Type: Odi
Over Count (Match Overs + When Occured): On and off from 20th till 38th over (I got bowled out in 38th over)
Ground: Durban Fields
Teams: India CG (me) vs South Africa CG (AI)
Get Best: Yes
Description of Issue: AI puts more than 2 fielders behind square on the leg side when fast bowlers are bowling. Even though the rules state there can't be more than 2 players behind square on the leg, this rule is violated by AI.

Edit: It's not just the "2 fielder behing square on the leg side" rule which is violated by AI. AI violates every fielding rule I'm aware of, especially in shorter formats, with more than 3 outside the fielding circle in powerplay overs and more than 5 fielders on the leg side. Extremely frustrating in odis when AI posts 7 fielders on the leg side and starts bowling on the leg.

Also while we're still early on, videos and screenshots or pictures of people's issues are very welcome as well.

Remember, there's an interactive replay to convey a lot of things that are deemed issues.

Please don't double up issues and anomalies from the original thread, if possible. We have all of that stuff noted down and are working on several issues already for patch 2.

This thread is for the new issues and anomalies you have found post-patch 1.

Thank you.

Can you confirm if the following issues are noted and being worked on:

1. Bowlers pace dropping drastically after only a few others, and not recovering between sessions and days
2. Lack of edges (far less than the ~40-45% of wickets fraction it should be), and seemingly over aggressive shots from the AI even in longer forms of the game
3. Players given out run out after having grounded a foot (with both subsequently being off the ground) when the laws of the game state they can't after a foot has been grounded so long as they aren't attempting another run
4. AI using odd field choices, i.e. no slips for the opening overs of a Test match

Bug : I updated DBC14 on my ps3 today, i continued my career as a Bat-AR, and continued a 4 day game which i saved before the patch. my team's AI was bowling, i saw that the field setup had like max slip fielders, then when it was my turn to bowl, i wanted to change the field setup, i pressed D-PAD down, i see all the field options(fast, medium, spin, all, defensive, offensive, etc) are empty. any one faced it?

I was playing a test match which is nicely poised. so i should finish that and download the patch then.

Worth noting after downloading the update, my PS3 froze and got stuck on a loop, had to kill it and relaunch DBC

Mode: Career
Match Type: T20
Over Count (Match Overs + When Occured): 8.4
Ground: Sydney
Teams: Sydney Sixers/Sydney Thunder
Get Best: Yes
Description of Issue: Bowler does the fielding off a straight drive to the onside, instantly throws the ball back to the keeper as I press "O" to get back in the crease (I would say, I was about half an inch out or less maybe?). Ball hits the stumps on the way through, foot is inside the crease. Given out. Basically the same impossible fielding/throwing down the stumps I've been experiencing.

Ground: adelaide
Teams: kasabian21 XI v netherlands
Get Best: no
Description of Issue: commentary has turned itself off during my innings (batting second)

Edit: I saved and exited the game and re-loaded it and the commentary was back on.

Edit edit: the commentary now seems less frequent and I'm only getting comments once each ball (or over) has completed and the ball is the keepers or bowlers hands. No comments when playing a shot/playing and missing etc...

Description of Issue: AI Batsman drives the ball towards Mid On, he runs in and takes a one-handed miracle catch, umpire gives it out. On replay, the ball is hit into the pitch from the bat and looks like a pretty straightforward drive to mid on?

Simple, you have activated the hidden 'french cricket' version of the game: Caught one handed on the bounce is perfectly legitimate
