95% complete, and all the bugs promised to be fixed have not been. Time to be disappointed?

noticed a typo..."Bat travels across outfield still too fast meaning even taking what would in real life be an easy single, can become risky "

its supposed to be ball i think :)


Oops - you are quite right, I have corrected it now

So its basically as ****e as the demo we played.
Was a big fan of blc99, but this game is a pile of crap.

Well as I said this was made at the same time as the demo with the same code the demo was created from so any bugs fixed after the demo will NOT be in the 95% complete review version.

No its the full game but not the one you will buy in the shops as that will have some changes and extra finishing touches.

Following on from my comments that AI needs to improve setting and chasing targets, well to enforce that I attach a picture from the following match

Australia v bangladesh, 50 over ODI

Sunny conditions and hard pitch (ideal batting I presume)

I am bowling as Bangladesh and here is bowling figures after opening 10 overs

I am purely concentrating on line and length. No attempt yet to play any shots, and the non run bug down to 3rd man/fine leg has cost about 6-7 runs so far


EDIT - just got Langer, now 12-1 on hard level :eek:

Many of the things like unrealistic unidirectional strokes,f***ing field settings can be patched by zim.So dont worry about it.But without autoplay the game su&ks.

ALso they should have made seperate strokes,field settings for spinners!

Very informative review, Zimrahil. It's seems that you've been diligently observant during your time with the game and have commented upon a broad range of aspects of the gameplay.

The biggest disappointed for me is that the batting is so vapid. No front/back foot shots, no charge down the wicket, too many shots not there....... EA's batting is far superior, without question.

I wasn't impressed with the BLIC demo and I have lost interest in the final version.
