@wasteyouryouth I had a go at the recent New Zealand team you shared. Me playing as India. Grassy worn pitch. Medium and Pro Difficulty.

New Zealand first innings wickets.

Is Team India updated recently? I find some player (B Kumar) rated very low compared to (I Sharma). I also find some players rated 100 rating.
 
Full pro cam was always the most realistic experience, but the early window made it difficult - the wider angle on pro cam effectively shrinks the bowler's end, and the very early part of the delivery is harder to follow.

I have question for u. Thought of pm ING u but asking here,

I play on exlusively on pro cam (0 hud) since dbc14days.. 0 hud is the differ may b.


On hardest/legend , it's still early timing in my book, ball on half pitch there's about , n that's early in the sense" can't play late under the bat thing "

What I found was, by reducing the shot timing to 25 in gameplay modifiers for hardest (n keeping others at 100)
It allowed me to play late under the nose, but what it also did allowed for easier footwork..

Ur thought on this ?

You need to be already halfway through your swing by the time the ball gets under your nose, so it's not possible to trigger a shot there with the system working as designed.

I've tried the timing slider at 20 as a workaround to make the timing later before though, and it does kind of do the job.

I don't mind it halfway down for the quicks, though. Huge improvement from early in the delivery. I'd love it to go later if possible but there's a limit to what can be done without breaking the system.

Also note - when you increase the speed it pushes the timing window earlier as a side effect.
 
Edges are so strange... they disappear and return like someone flicks a switch!

I got a few nice ones when bowling, but hardly any when batting. Aside from timing batting didn't feel all that different. But when I batted on hard last time I had more edges than a dodecahedron
 
Just finished a Test match I’d started before the patch on pro/medium level. Patch definitely took effect mid match (PS4) Batting is more like real Test match, ie: it’s harder, I’m scoring less boundaries and have to be more patient, can’t just go all guns blazing.

I’m enjoying the animations of batsmen when they’re dismissed.

Some of the wickets I’ve taken have been great. More bowleds, LBWs and great nicks and slip catches, not just a load of caught in the fields. Not sure what the swing bowling issue is, I’m swinging it more than ever. Hell I’ve even got David Willey looking like a Test bowler!

Thanks for the patch Big Ant. I enjoy playing the Tests and like to have to work hard. There’s great little details of variety now with animations, pitch details and commentary.
 
Anyone getting much success with powered-driven shots (i.e. when both triggers held down)? Getting much better results from normal drives - whenever I have tried doing such a shot, I'm not getting it past the inner circle (regardless of how perfectly I time it). I'm really loving the late dabs to the 3rd man region btw :)

I play pro-mode without batting timing feedback or the ball landing circle - having such an immersive experience without them.

There are things which I'd hope can be improved/looked at:

  • When leaving the ball to spinners (even when you're well in the crease), the bug happens where your batsman leaves the crease for a split second only for the keeper to whip the bails off.
  • If you set off for a single, but change your mind almost immediately, the batsman on strike gets stuck/frozen down the pitch (giving a chance of a run-out).
  • The camera spinning left and right unnaturally when you miss a shot and the ball carries to the keeper.
  • I'm finding it difficult to get consistent success in the midwicket region (based on my scoring graphs - this just might be though).

Exactly what's happening...

So there's very very late timing ( which is cool)for the slow spinners and not to late (early)for the fast quicks.

Cant really call that watch and play stuff, agree but better than before though.

Modifiers do gets u what exactly u want from the game . So that's a help.
 
Has anyone noticed about pitches deterioration after swing update on pc.Because i played 2 long formats yesterday and didn't see any changes in pitches after 60 odd overs both matches. Wealey, if any observations on pitches deterioration please let me and correct me may be i am the only one.
