International Cricket 2010 Impressions Thread

Not to mention he takes blinders of "perfectly timed" ground shots

Basically if mr short cover comes to town, stick to the leg side!

End of the day its a game, if with him there i get 4-5 wickets and without him the AI bat normally im happy to remove him.

So by the sounds of it no lbw's or bowled wickets so far,

Is it wrong that im so annoyed about the same things that were wrong in ashes look as though there back again, and i aint even got the game till tomorrow.

Also any close in catches for a spinner ie: bat pad, silly point.

I suppose we are all a bit worked up as we are all desperate to see this game succeed. Every time a new game comes around we all hoard around our screens dying to get to the nuts and bolts of a game. Impression so far is that it is an enjoyable game, is fun to play and has reasonable pacing and gameplay. There are going to be bugs and frustrations but it seems that Trickstar might be on the right track. As long as it has shelf life. If online mode works this game could go on for a while. There are some very keen players here dying to tackle each other.

You as a paying customer have every right to be upset... so far this is what we have seen based on comments from folks who have played the game, especially SpitfiresKent...

1. In tests AI has not scored much - all out for 170 odd in 46 overs and there were 20-30 no balls in that total as stated by the person who played the Test. Plus there were a few dropped catches as well

2. Most of the boundaries are lofted shots in a test match

3. No bowleds or LBWs to speak off - most of the wkts were catches

4. Short cover/close-in cover has once again taken majority of catches (3-4)

5. Wickets still seem to be random and not based on a well thought out strategy to get a batsman out. Looks like you mix up your deliveries and eventually AI will mistime it to a fielder :doh

Granted that's based off only one game but pls note that the person was playing the game for the first time. If he can get Aus out in a Test Match for 170 odd first time he plays, imagine what happens after you have played a few times and know AI's weaknesses.

Have you played a Test? If so how many days did it last.

Has the AI chased a limited overs target against you? How did they do?

What percentage of the wickets were bowled/lbw

Is it hard to play behind the wicket using the Action cam?
