Features you want to see in next iteration of Big Ant Cricket

You're not qualified to discuss what I do with my ass based on your lack of experience or knowledge in being me, or working in the Biggs-based industry.

Think of it as angry men with trainsets and who think they know better than anyone else.

...but you're a self-fufilling prophecy ol' chum. Keep up that positive, friendly banter you waxed lyrical about barely half a scroll up...

I don’t need experience or knowledge about your ass mate the profile pic tells the whole story for you.
 
...only if you're an experienced games developer, otherwise keep that sorta talk to yourself. Or discuss the merits of my backside, I can give you some copy-pointers?
 
Go ahead, Biggs is just upset broke his trainset.

I am sure he will analyse it and tell you how bad it is and how it can be improved. Because Big Ant apparently can’t get anything right these days and he will know better as he knows how to sell games to kids with backward facing baseball caps.
 
Firstly thanks Big ant for making this game and keeping the Cricket video games alive.
As a fan who has played the game and watched it so much on television, I would like to c below things in the game.
I have put in as much as I could think of, would be happy if some of that is delivered in the next version which I will buy for sure.


1) Fielders/Bowlers throwing on stumps even when batsmen is in or when a run is not attempted most irritating part in the game.
Also incase of a real run out bowler takes ages to take the bails off. This needs to be fixed.
2) Commentary needs a big improvement, I would like to hear what is the pitch doing and what a former player would do in the curent situation.
Commentary needs to speak about match current state; is batting team ahead of the rate, what bowlers need to do next etc etc.
3) Team should always go for a win, at times chasing AI looses steam and ends up losing the game. 20 of last over they need to try and hit all balls.
When its a free hit if I bowl a slower ball yorker or a yorker outside off AI leaves the ball :)
4) AI should play horses for courses for a spinning pitch spinners r picked and bowl max overs and similarly for seaming pitches.
5) Pitch, Conditions need to have a bigger say in the game. Grounds to luk really different then each other.
6) Tournaments need a aura around them display things like India needs to win this to stay in the tournament, RR by which a team needs to win, show the standings within games. Showing dynamic stuff between overs can make it really exiting like next game between team x and y.
7) Player emotion is needed, Batsmen and bowler rivarly, fielders throwing themselves around to put pressure, few words and dynamic celebrations.
8) Crowd getting involved noise when bowler runs in, cheer when batsmen is on fire, crowd behind the home team.
9) Different camera angles in game and in replay
10) Chosing grounds in tournaments its just home away and really boring to play games only at delhi. Also we can add like WC hosted by Australia and Nz all games on these grounds that wud be fun.
11) Rankings for each format Don bradman rankings :)
12) Six meters, last 5 innings quick stat, what a player has done in the tournament stat, would be interesting to have stats like WC games and performance. Partnership, wagon wheel, session runs, time since last boundary this all can add fun to the game
13) Option to change distance between keeper and stumps
14) Diving catches are like super hero movies they need to be real, also bowlers fielding off their own bowling has completely take away the straight drive.
15) Lot of power with flick squre of the wicket and very less squre of point, in practice its the other way round, things like sweet timing is needed in the game.
16) Crowd chanting player names when they r doing well, or when they come out to bat Sachin Sachin
17) 360 deg field placement just adher to inner circle and behind square rule, except that I should be able to place the fielder anywhere.
18) Relay catches at the boundary, 2 fielders chasing the ball to the fence one stops the other one throws
19) Traning modes need a huge improvement, training b4 the game can be added with the set of players within the squad
20) Information such as coach, physio and 10 of other consultants that we have today can be added and used in game/training
21) Imparting spin on the ball has to be improved or is it that only I m bad at it :)
22) Number 10 and 11 should look ugly when they bat, and part timer should bowl wide and full toss
23) In a tournament when lineups are displayed comentrators should speak on the changes and what those players bring to the team. Also the team should change like non performers are replaced.
24) If I am batting and oppostion make a field change there should be a cut scene for that.
25) Things like drinks, player injury or a simple magic spray should excite the game, a 50,100 5fier celebration should be dynamic too. Injury keeping players out for 1/2 weeks
26) Slog sweep and cow corner shots need to be added.
27) Powerful ground shots needs better execution
28) Music, Cheerleaders in T20, Banners in the crowd.
29) Weather can match the exact day weather its easy to pull information on weather and wud be nice to have washed out games in the tournament would add to the fun.
30) Anthems before a WC game, there can be a option to add a audio file while we create the team same can be played during the game.
31) Pactice can be made so much real, between game the squads parctice giving out of form players a chance linking that to real match form. fielding drills, catch parctice, throwing at the stumps.
32) AI field placemetns are bad ultra defensive at times too this needs a improvement.
33) Mini highlights in the game for a 50,100 a 5fier etc, also a quick highlights at the end of a innings with 4s and 6s, fall of wickets
34) Batting AI needs further improvement so does fielding overall
35) Ability to hold the ball cross seam, select were the sinny side is should be there helping the bowler to bowl different diliveries.
36) Umpires different then each other, characters like billy bowden wud add to the fun element.
 
Because Big Ant apparently can’t get anything right these days

Um, I'm actually one of their most outspoken supporters and have been for some time, at times I've been chastised for my positivist nature towards them... you should stop before you embarrass yourself any further. [/soundadvice]

Outspoken support by telling them how to their job? Look here is how to get down with the kids advice. Hell you could make a rap video and show them Trump with some kids who have all glum faces sat around a console saying things “like light up those stumps and now reach for the sky”
(The Will Smith friendly approach)

Embarrass yourself? I will quote you as you have quoted me isn’t that imitation in some form? As it is your signature now.

“People come here to chat, debate and enjoy the banter”.

Moving on...
 
Its nearly 4am here I will have to try and sleep and be responsible as I have to be up in a few hours I can’t stroll in with red eyes.

Anyway yes moving on…. Subject change.

Anyone?

Matt announcement? Piyush anything else you wanna see happen?
 
Didn't I confirm that previously? If I didn't, then obviously I'm just saying "stay tuned", but if I did, then yeah.

I think you thanked a post of mine where I discussed it, I said that meant it was confirmed and everybody else kind of ignored it...

But nevertheless, sweet. That's a big improvement.
 
Outspoken support by telling them how to their job?.

Yes, that exactly. Based on the hundreds of hours play testing people on the forum have done.

MattW was the train set guy now he works at BA.

People on this forum were used to play test the PC updates before they were made public, and gave the new field sets: Big Ant can distinguish constructive criticism from entitled whining.

Not for the first time, zombie/tazzie/markymark, you've really got it wrong.
