Mega Patch for Cricket2004

[brp8487]

Hi all u criket lovers.

i was just wondering that since cricket2k4 did not turn up as anticipated and looking at the efforts of many guys in this community doing greatwork in terms of editing player faces, etc why not we create a new mega patch which sorts out many if not all the bugs in this game.

Already as i have seen many people are working on creating gameplay patches,faces,kits etc, but there has been no collective effort, which leads to duplication of the same effort by some othrs.Insead we start of from editing the player models right from building the player models (like the one created for c2k2), and then building acurate faces for atlest 15 members of each international squad. The efforts can be shared by starting threads for every squad. Those people whose efforts are included will be included in the credits.

Then we can play around with the gameplay to accurately depict real world physics.

I know this is an ambitious project and might not even see the light of day.but one thing is cerain.It streamlines the efforts of many.

Comment on how u like this idea!

its an idea of which u can just dream at the moment...coz the the way c2004 has its data saved is a hard nut 2 crack.....n secondly its JUST too early for a MEGA PATCH....its hardly been a month and a half for the game....n not 2 forget....ppl are actually waiting for the uk release with hopes that its patched and EA/HB release a patch with it for the aus/nz version....so hang on.....

I've said many times, we can't create a patch to fix the bugs!

I am wondering that b4 the release of the game in Europe will HB studios attempt to alter the release to fix bugs etc

I ask the question but am 99.9% sure it will be same buggy version released elsewhere.

IF EA are gonna release a patch they will release it after the Europe release, coz they know its buggy they wont buy it

u guys should start mkaing a mega patch..remeber the last one? so start now..you will get lazy and in a year it will be dome :

The mega patch that they made for c2k4 didnt fixa any bugs. If it did then the bug for controls not staying wuld have been fixed. We'll just have to wait for EA to do it.

Hi Guys

The idea of mega patch was not just to create one. I t was also about organizing the eforts of many in this forum.why not create seperate sections devoted to say face making, kit making.gameplay etc instead of threads of individuals.That way searching for a particular thing would not be as difficult it is know.

already people have done a lot of graphics editing and stuff.we have to combine the best efforts for the patch. we can also work with other such cricket forums in building this.

So Andrew think about it!

Bye for now

the game having so many bugs is one of the reasons why ea hasnt released a demo.good strategy.
