Is this a bug or what?

[souljah]

I was playing a game today between Austrailia and Pakistan 50 overs match. The thing is, Austrailia(computer) kept throwing wides over wides. By the time my batting got to 20th over, Austrailia has already thrown 34 wides. Its like at least 2 wides an over. Is it for real what or is it just a bug? And is there a patch to fix it? Because I would rather have hard earned runs than scoring 200 myself and have them give me 100 wides.

Ravi's next patch will adress this issue

Ver 7.0 is up guys we are testing it in a couple of online matches couple of us are playing. It wont be long before its up for release.

What are the enhacements in this patch, Ravi ?

 

[crick4life]

Less wides, smaller bowling cursor, harder to score boundries but lots of 1s and 2s available to run. Scoring anything over 300 consistently will hopefully be impossible. Less edges in ODIs but the test settings stays. Front foot shots made easy to play but the backfoot ones hard to play. Medium/Easy levels tweaked to ensure its fairly close to hard settings and not big difference between levels. Not easy to score sixes at all, you can hit over the infield but sixers are a rarity. I have a feeling this patch will simply stick for a long time to come barring few very subtle changes that we may not notice. The shots have all be redesigned to get better value for well timed shots but not much for badly timed shots.

sweet

sweet work ravi... when does this patch come out, can't wait for it. If it weren't for u guys, I don't know how we'all can even manage to play this game. EA should learn somethin' from u guys, keep it up!

Sounds great, Ravi.

Yep, I whole-heartily agree...we'll all chip in and but you a copy of Cricket 2006 when it comes out LOL

 

[Iron-Haggis]

Buy him a copy of Cricket 2006 so he can spend his time making up patches to fix that one too.

 

[SteveG]

Now just think...if it wasn't for Cricket 2004 and its bugs Ravi would be wasting his time lazing in the sun with a nice cool beer/coke (depends on age), watching TV, catching up on his reading, going to the movies, doing other things that can't be printed here...so really EA have keep him quiet and well-behaved.
