How are you doing in your career?

Oh I'm sorry I just jizzed in my pants.

I think you opened the wrong page, this is Planet Cricket not something else

Thanks Ross - lost for words right now.

Simulating the match until its your turn to bowl takes away the fun. You could be a part time spinner lets say and only bowl a couple of overs in a match.

But we don't necessarily need to simulate - we can watch the AI bat and bowl while we field ourselves. This is going to be a REAL cricket experience!

Not true. Nothing was better than hearing codemasters were to stop being involved with cricket.

Codemasters, like 505, paid for someone else to make the game.... Same same

Not in a test match, I fear. Imagine standing at 2nd slip the whole afternoon.

But if you dont want to you dont have to, you just sim. I think be a pro is more realistic as I can only control my own actions. I am sure that as I move up the ranks I will get noticed by other teams..........

I take it this is rather than, instead of as well as, a career mode in which you control a whole team. Obviously, on Fifa you have the option for both.

And you thinks that's FUN?

True, this mode is more realistic.
Would love to hear from Ross if the game only considers the runs you score or wickets you bag, or does it consider your performance based on the match situation?

 

[Eugene]

Awesome news thank you Ross.

That is correct.

As others have pointed out, we already have the tech and team management worked well on Rugby League, it was not as fun as we would like for cricket and it was hard for it to make complete sense, so it was dropped.

We have set a high quality bar for this game and despite the mode being finished it did not hit that bar.

Well to be able to play a player through the ranks over a period of twenty years is unbelievable.....the stats man, think of the stats.....

My thoughts exactly.

 

[akk90]

When do you intend to release this game?

 

[sukh]

U can relive sachins career

 

[MattW]

Does your created player auto-age while going through the mode?

 

[jovey]

Sadly, not exactly. Sachin was playing international cricket at 16, for this game you'd have to start your way up from as a 16 year old. Regardless, it's pretty cool :P
