Hi all,

What the hell are the controls for them? They are completely different than what it says in the manual! Also, why is their special ball googlies?
 
How come then that "2" is the leg spinning control?

Is "4" the faster googly or is "6"?

Why is a special ball a googly?!!!!

lol, I'm frustrated on this!!!

The special googly starts off with the ball marker pointing as if its a leg-spinner, then it sharply turns the other way. I'd guess this is particularly useful in multi-player where you can fool your opponant.
 
Stephen!!! :p

I know that about legspinners, but I'm talking about Googly bowlers. Why, if it says in the manual that the special deliveries for googly bowlers are flipper and special legspinner is the delivery a googly. That was my question.

Thank you for replying though.

I'll go and have a play and see what I think!


Just tried it:
Don't know what your problem is because when I use the special legspinner for Brad Hogg, it comes out as a special legspinner...
 
try using that classic player bill o' something. he can spin from a wide which will turn into wide on the other side.

Brad Hogg is a chinaman (left arm legspinner). I'm talking about a right arm googly (a bowler that bowls primarily googlies) bowler (think you have to make one because there are none in the game). Right arm googly bowlers do not work properly!

Should be the same, in the book it has 'Left arm googly bowler (chinaman) - as for right arm except:'

But i'll take your word for it :p

Ok I've just had a play with a career player with right arm googly. If your using default controld they are:
2: Leg break
4: Normal Googly
6: Googly which turns more
1: Special googly (From legspinner to a googly)
3: Flipper
8: Topspinner
 
Brad Hogg is like one of the hardest bowlers to play against in the demo (Aussie, England and Windies), well, it's easy to hit but it's just when he comes on I find it really fun.
