Don Bradman Cricket 17 General Discussion

Like you, I have no knowledge on how it would work. Maybe they could have used servers like other sport game titles?

I was also talking in general, as there has literally been no changes to the online mode.

yeah would have like a mechanism to create an online tournament, but again i think a server is required, I think BA being a smaller game company cannot afford all the servers it would require to do this, they have a academy server only for sharing academy creations I think

Yes, even smaller changes in comparison can make a lot of difference. E.g. I suggested the ability to simulate matches in co-op online last month which I think would add a whole new level of depth. Whether this will be possible remains to be seen.

I think they modelled the runner on Inzamam ul Haq

I think the fielding is also inspired by Pakistan cricket team...

Now that's cold...!

Thanks grkrama also on the timing front do you play front foot shoots earlier then back food shots? I think a large part of batting in this game is timing, have had to take the difficult level down to amateur and easiest. Not proud of that but I am enjoying the game more.

ya you do have more time with back foot shots. timing is important at all difficulties but after medium diff i think your footwork and shot choice also play a vital role, the game is really good at all difficulties, always play whichever difficulty feels best for you thats the only thing that matters.

Maybe some of those no balls too

 

[Mubashwer]

The first priority should be fixing the field preset bug.. and yes I also kinda like the current running system

 

[AliAnsar]

is there a ETA on the next patch?

Not sure but damn its annoying ! the running ! the stamina ! the field preset ! Hopefully they address these issues ! Even if it takes another month for the next patch to come out !

No man , there has been a few changes for Online .

• We now cannot select our Type of Pitch , or any Details for it.
  
• We now cannot select our Umpires officiating
  
• We now cannot access our Preset fields if game had to be saved
• We now have fielders running across the pitch and field until the bowler starts running in
• We now have the same stats for all the Players , never changing after matches completed.
• We now dont have the slight pause before releasing the ball whilst bowling
• We now have a much stabler Online experience ,with much reduced disconnections

Oh , and we now have the backup ability that every beginning of the over the game saves automatically (Very Cool)

I suspect that your personal favourite is the one where the batsman completes his run , waits in the crease , and at the perfect moment sets off for a suicide run moments before the returning

throw clatters into the stumps....[DOUBLEPOST=1486741299][/DOUBLEPOST]

No its still the same as in DBC14 , maximum of 2 machines .

PS. When are you joining my SA League Boet ????

will join sometimes

Played it this weekend and i have the say, the bowling mechanics for me is utter rubbish
Preferred DBC 14 Bowling mechanics, was much better

Foot movement still feels wrong
pressed forward on LAS only for batsman to try and play the pull shot
impressive i have to say[DOUBLEPOST=1486962704][/DOUBLEPOST]

seeing that the online play is not done by game servers but is peer to peer, how the heck do you thing 4 machine vs 4 machines is going to work? (granted I know nothing about programming this at all, but I don't know that this is even possible without a game server)

will be 2 machines vs 2 machines

No. They will update when they fins a working solution and then they can set a target date.

I was talking to someone the other day and they said the bowling mechanics were the dogs under carriage... Such extreme opinion.

Can't say it's ever happened to me.

Maybe it's your shot choice that is wrong. Or refer to the thread about batting post patch 3 which explains how to remove the occurrence of strange shots.

And despite what some people think, the front foot pull shot is a thing.

Realistically they are though... complete downgrade from DBC 14!
