Patch 4 Wishlist and Suggestions

When bowling, each length hits the same length on the pitch...no variation.

You create the variation yourself. I am in love with the bowling so far. I just had a state shield match for NSW in which I took 7 wickets across two innings bowling line and length off spinners with slight variation in length, flight, bounce and spin.
 
Yep....and I could have purchased the game in three months time for half the price I purchased it 7 weeks ago.

Thats a great investment!

Hate to say it but video games are not investments - their value is unlikely to appreciate. They are just toys to be bought from your disposable income and sometimes you get one you don't enjoy that much. As an example I am not happy with Madden 17 post patches which have taken away all the fun out of the game and made it similar to Madden 16 with robo QB to appease the online crowd. So I moved away from it and will probably get the next one couple of years down the road. At least Big Ant listen to the community and have their heart in the right place. Yeah things didn't work out as they intended but as I said earlier shyte happens.

You could create the variation in 14 and you had far more control over it too

Yeah fair enough....I agree with your post.

I suppose I am just disappointed. I really enjoyed DBC14 and just had expectations that DBC17 would be an improvement.[DOUBLEPOST=1485828121][/DOUBLEPOST]

The R1 and L1 variations for length on ps4 just dont work.

The only variation is the line using the right stick!
 
Scoreboards on community stadiums need to have figures at moment they look weird being blank
In DBC 14 every 5 overs it displayed what the score was for the other team this needs to be put back in DBC 17
There are no objectives when playing in casual matches
Player stats for players when playing a tour and how series in tour is going eg team leads series 1-0
Player stats like we had in DBC 14 with tabs for stats accumulated in game stat accumulated in real world and a combination of the two
Same stats chart thats now in career for competition mode and tour mode
Option to pick umpires stadium and Pitch conditions in competition mode and tour mode
 
No it wouldn't. They did comment that patch 3 was coming and it didn't appease the masses or even mollify them. All we got was rubbish about when was it coming and it should never have been in this state anyway and so on. That's what would happen here too, but with the additional.. "there's no way a game like this should need 4 patches."
Fifa 17 just released patch 6....

the L1 R1 variations do work! you just have to press them first then choose length -- the tutorial is not very clear on that at all...

you can get 12 different lengths doing this, however everyone seems to feel that natural variation by release point of the ball (right stick) like DBC14 was way better...

I for one like this. I think the bowling is sublime.

Okay, appease the minority but information is better than no information.
 
AI players skill improvement in line with career player and dynamic lineup issue being fixed.
 
Batting is good to play but it can get better by addng more shot selction like late cut,third man guide, the ramp,switch hit,dil scoop,fix up back foot shots slog sweep
Maybe make advancing easier to play
Bowling can still improve by adding more slower ball variations like tye nuckle ball
We need reverse swing in the game
Running between wickets needs to improve
Fielding needs improving like stopping the ball from the rope and sliding
Catching must be fixed make it catch normal and add diving catches in the dip , less one hand catches
No super human fielding or catching
Weather must be added with rain, cloudy, windy ,overcast and have different outfields like fast , slow and damp
Have dew factor in india and other places
Pitch conditions need to impact the match more like spin and slow like India ,bouncy pitches like wacca and have hitting cracks impact the ball
acadamy features
Sweat bands
Towel to players
Headbands
Bandana
Fielding sleeves
We should be able to choose if players wear long sleeves,short sleeves or skins
We should have different kits for each players and have the new helmets with safety guard
Maybe add county season and Australian state season in the game
Add injuries into the game
Better commentary
Better field placements with real slip fielders no bowlers maybe let us have players names
Better celebrations in the game
 
@BigAntStudios @MattW is there any chance of a custom broadcast camera mode coming in future patches, where maybe we could zoom in or out? Also will this duplicate logo issue and the max amount of logos which is 2080 remain? As i thought it was supposed to have been fixed in patch 3? Thanks in advance.
 
I'd like the broadcast cam to actually show down the ground shots going over the boundary and the boundary rope rather than just cutting off with some players running after the ball right up to the cam and then you get surprised with either a stop by the player or a four! What will it be this time????
 
There's far more important issues to address first than a camera angle tbh
