PC version 1.15.x discussion/bug reporting thread

[Gamer Pradosh]

On the other hand had a few buggy games with @grkrama and here are screenshots:



- First image the fielders were just standing besides the ball and no reaction.

-Second image look at where the non striker is..Stuck after the ball went to WK.

So same goes with the fielders going through the stumps etc??

Well yes - the game will be trying to show "the fielder breaks the stumps with the ball", have an internal calculation on whether the player's attributes (and user input if necessary) would result in a hit or a miss, and then chuck that over to the graphical engine to try and best show that in the split second you'd have for it to result in the right thing.

I'd say therefore I'm sure the game technically checks things like 'were the bails dislodged' - but that wouldn't be on the basis of whether the animation for that dislodged the bails, but rather on the basis of the calculation on whether the physics of the interaction between the objects would have that result.

Thanks, but will it get better with maybe better implementation of animations based on the output??

I do agree that the output is correct but why not put correct animations, like if the game registers it as a direct hit then let the bowler just leave the ball and give way, simple.Even for balls going to boundary make the fielder use sideway slide animation and make him tap the ball in instead of the full body stretch he does and goes in with the ball..Things like that...Its more harder to get that batting part right but other stuff definitely possible...

reading all these threads from this forum and Stream tells me something - is the game broken? are we going bak to Ashes again? Nevertheless this game and BigAnt deserve lot of respect from fans.

This is where I miss "banging head against a wall" smiley. Petitioning @MattW to add it ASAP.

Yes. We are breaking the game to the point that we shall remove it from sale and refund everyone's money. Sorry for any inconvenience.

PS: Before making such extreme comments you might want to play it first hand and not rely upon comments from others.

Sorry if its been answered already. I had created a batting (Seam bowler. Right Arm Fast to be precise) allrounder who used to get enough bowling in FC matches (on an average of 10-15 overs sometimes 20-25 for Tasmania and Somerset) but after the latest patch my player doesn't get to bowl a single ball. Not even in the List A matches nor in the Test matches (India) while the players like Cheteshwar Pujara, Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay get to bowl. Please solve the issue.

EDIT: I have played like 3 FCs, 2 List As and 3 Test Matches in the career mode after applying the new patch.

@BigAntStudios
Hi Ross. Just in case you have missed my post, I'm quoting the same since you're online right now.

 

[BigAntStudios]

I read all posts, as do some of the BA staff in Melbourne. No need to repost.

I apologize Ross. my quote was written in no anger,

I apologize Ross. my quote was written in no anger,

I know, I was being sarcastic, however it is true that probably should play it for yourself before making comments.

 

[grkrama]

so are you mean or sarcastic or sarcastically mean ?

i don't know if this is a consequence of my stepping up to veteran, or changes in recent patches, but i am getting a new (and bloody stupid) dismissal when i am batting:

hooking/pulling the medium pacers, and time it well and goes like a rocket, short leg plucks it from the air like it's a feather floating on the breeze. this seems to be specific to medium pacers.

this is even playing with my reduced attributes so don't think it's an overpowered fielder. in fact i have been taking some brilliant quick singles, so this issue really sticks out.

Start playing at "Legend" and you will absolutely start hating short leg and short mid wicket. They will take blinders and in some cases short leg will take a well hit shots to the leg side off a spinner.

it's annoying. i don't mind edges, i don't mind an occasional smacked into the middle of him and it sticks, but i do mind him taking a well hit shot wide of him one-handed like the simplest thing in the world. it's basically AI cheating because that mode of dismissal is not available to me (though you could say the same about edges!)
