I hope you can switch between bowling styles for some players. e.g. Symonds and Tendulkar switching between spin and medium?

^Thats is highly unlikely to happen IMO

Its a good feature to have but i dont think it will be there in this one!

 

[Eon]

Yea i cant see it being included would be nice though... maybe being able to do so before a test starts like once you have seen the pitch and whether its sticky or grassy... but i still dont see it happening... maybe thats one for a future game

Brilliant work,
nice interview..
It is early stages atm in terms of what they are telling us, but i am confident that this next addition to the cricket games archives will be a step in the right direction.

I don't think ashes09 will have a "Be A Pro" type game mode, but I would like them to look into it for future titles.

I doubt it as well, but do you guys reckon it would work in a cricket game? I wouldn't mind to see it being given a go.

 

[MasterBlaster76]

Anyone know if there's an appeal button this time round?

 

[Eon]

well in all the interviews and hands on etc there hasnt been a mention of an appeal button... although you never know... and the "be a pro" for cricket would be tricky to get right... im all for someone giving it a crack though, think it would be fun if done right

I wish there is an Archives feature in AShes 09. I have always missed a genuine Stats tracker in the Codies games (vs the EA ones). Y d hell to play a full tournament, if u r unable to see the top scorers, your team performence, etc.

So I hope there is an Archives feature n an in-game stats tracker too...:upray

But it is a good Idea for the future games to come
