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

[Till Valhalla]

WWE is only for entertainment. It's not a sport. They script the events unlike sport games. Thus, I still wonder why a sports game requires a story mode? It's career should be open ended...not scripted. The next thing one would complain is bad acting by David Warner and request BA to hire good actors...lol

I think the story mode could be a good idea if it is based on real cricketer.

@Doncharted make your own stories in career and online. Doesn't need to be tied to a script

The Mind is your Script

if i want a story i will read a book. they should stick to the cricket.

this may be the worst idea since cappy dozy's dream time / not a pitch marker brain-shart which was the worst idea about anything, ever including the roman who said "this wine doesn't taste very good, i think i'll add some lead."

True, with the possible exception of how many no-balls need to be bowled in any given over. ;-)

So you mean license a whole lot of players? That would be completely against the idea of Academy.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but one thing I would love to see is more in depth statistics for your career player. So basically it keeps track of your best three(?) scores/figures against each opponent. That way if you were getting close to your best score a graphic could be shown which shows your top scores against that team.

I also think it would be cool if certain records were stored (eg: highest opening partnership in Tests for England against Pakistan at Lord's) and if you were getting close to breaking them a graphic could be shown to let you know that you are close to the record.

I'm not sure if this is asking too much but I think it would definitely making playing the game more rewarding.

I am not saying that they have to include a story mode,i am saying if they want to ever include a story mode I think it would be good if it is real player journey rather than some one fake.

Still a lot of things to be ironed out before Big Ant get to a Story mode. I don't mind Story or any other mode but that should happen when all aspects of gameplay (including AI) have been nailed. TBH I expect that to happen over the next couple of iterations and maybe then Big Ant can focus on other aspects.

2K changed NBA 2K16's career mode into a kind of "story" mode (at least in the beginning of it) with a script and cutscenes/voice acting and it has been widely slated - I've played it a little and it does seem very cheesey/cliché... My player based on myself who is white has a black sister and speaks with the voice of a black man. It's strange.

FIFA 17 is introducing something this year where you play the story of a fictional player called Alex Hunter... Seems like story modes are something the big sports games are bringing in lately, so I don't think it's a stupid request/idea, but it would probably take a lot of work and I'm not sure it's something that would be high on the wishlist for most people. Good gameplay with a solid career mode would be fine for me.

Is there a Stadium Creator or its a hoax ? *confused badly*

I'm not sure about a story mode but something I would enjoy is a scenario mode like they had in EA 07:

Since there is a stadium creator [hopefully], logo creator for uniforms bats and most equipments I definitely would like this..Recreate historic match scenarios and play them even share them across players through academy...So players creating scenarios and sharing across would make a load of scenarios we could play..

That would be a great feature, always liked those scenario modes in sports games. I think BLIC 05 has one too, as well as a few football games I've played.

Being able to share tours/competitions through the Academy would also be nice - you could design them in DBC14's Academy but not share them online.

they should use scenarios from great matches such as 438 game with south Africa and Australia.
