This looks good! now we just need to get the AI dropping some catches.... fielding stats should make some difference

Has anyone checked how AI is chasing in odi and t20 ?

I would continue that ODI I posted before.. AI needs to chase 266 from 50 overs on a pitch where there's something for bowlers too..Lets see how it goes..

Played my first co-op online test after recent patches and my reaction is just 'WOW! This game just keeps on improving'. I set up a grassy top and let me tell you before these patches I used to play moderate against pacers and generally will lose a wicket in the first 20 overs then the spinners would come and clean up all our innings(both my friend and mine) and we'll end up scoring around 200, 250 being our highest. Today though it was a different story, the pacers were swinging it like never before and lots and lots of variations like slower balls,cutters and heck even they are now changing sides if going for runs, I never seen the AI change sides except after over ends. They ended up bowling us over for mere 140 in 29 overs and handing 7 wickets total to pacers alone(I've never seen this before), although my friend throw 3-4 wickets playing restlessly, it was still due to some skilled bowling!
And the batting too, I saw a lot of variety in shots according to timing and saw some new(for me atleast) batting shot animations which I've never seen before like a mid on flick which was so good to see. Only some known issues like stamina not draining for certain bowlers and the mid runout bug and very few like those are preventing this game from achieving the 'Perfect!' status now.
I just love the balanced status that this game is progressing with these patches providing better gameplay for both casual and in-depth players. Huge Thanks to Matt and our lovely beta testers in making this game a treat to us..

Would say that generally ODi's are spot on at the moment in terms of risk and reward......

Has swing been "turned off" again looking at @wasteyouryouth 's earlier post?

I hadn't noticed to be honest.

I still get swing.

 

[balkeet]

Outswing less prominent but inswing is evident

 

[ashar rizwan]

@MattW can we please have option of editing sweater/jumper design in academy or various readymade sweaters design,because every team is having default old design unlike Dbc 14 sweaters

To be honest, everyone hated the extravagant seam, but then was happy with it hooping every game. Now you get it now you don’t.. i prefer it

 

[wasteyouryouth]

The total score seems ok according to the pitch, but no swing at all is kinda sad.
And please tell me they were normal runouts?

No, they were non-striker runs to the striker who doesn't move kind of run outs.

I'm going to try and spot some kind of pattern, unless a fix is in the works.

Surely Matt's too busy adding extra sweaters to fix that!

Well, I know I'd much prefer a nice zip necked sweater than getting two or three run outs per test innings.

It would at least be nice to understand when seam/swing will be more prevalent. I'm not desperate that it appears each and every match and on all surfaces, but something moderately consistent or predictable would be good. No swing at all on an overcast day in England (swing at 100, Anderson swing attribute at 95) is just disappointing.

On this build the seam movement feels pretty good. Although the bowling set up for seamers is too muddled, to me, I was finally able to figure out how to get it to go both ways because I had absolutely no swing to work with. This at least allowed some variation without having to constantly send down cutters.

The only thing I have done is set Fielding to Semi Assist and then just don't run them out . But still love to have it fixed, since fully assisted is what I prefer.
