Patch General discussion

[Vishwas gupta]

I just hate the idea of knowing that a whole lot of feckwits asking for help on here have probably pirated the game.

Bro i never use any pirated ones to play a game!!

I might have missed this but for the patch, how will I get it? Will my game simply update by itself as other games do? I live in USA and bought my game from Amazon so will that have any affect?

Only you can know and I didnt say you did....

does the patch have a field radar?

Don't believe so however it makes players more clear by labeling their fielding position.

 

[grkrama]

just re-voicing but having player names will be more cool and informative to target fielders as in real game if possible.

checking the field every ball isn't a lot of fun

@BigAntStudios I just need a realistic camera angle. Go watch a cricket match and see the how the actual broadcast camera angles are. Camera angles in the game are pathetic which never gives a feeling of real cricket match.

More immersive though . And you don't have to check it every ball, just when there's a field change which I find is normally on average perhaps just once an over.

Can anyone tell me that in the new patch that in carrer mode that 'batsmen' wont be opening the bowling? And bowling more than 'bowlers'? As in mine the leading wicket takers are all batsmen.

This is really the only question I have regarding the patch. The only frustrating part of the whole game for me is seeing non bowlers being given so many overs. Even keepers playing just as batsmen like Matt Prior for Sussex bowl very regularly in my career mode. Like everyone else I have found the batting very challenging...but that's the point isn't it? A 16 year old wouldn't be blazing a trail for his club. I've managed to make a few 50s in T20s but the other formats I'm rubbish in...but that's fine. I'm enjoying the grind. Just the wrong bowlers issue needs sorting for me please...other than that this is a top, top game.

I believe this will be sorted, in the meantime you can play with the default players as this is an issue with downloaded players only

Ok cool. I'm fine with it for now. The important part is playing the matches and trying to scores runs as my guy...and as long as I know it is being worked on for the first patch I'm happy with that. Is it confirmed that we'd have to restart our career mode for it to take effect?

Would be great to be able to dictate your team or your batsmen playing style depending on the situation: more aggressive or defensive, keep the strike or rotate the strike, go for the win, go for the draw, stay in your shell, eat up overs etcetra. I know it is more something for a future iteration but who knows.....

We do this type of thing with our other sports games - should do it for DBC as well. I'll put it on the list for possible inclusion in patch#2
