Ross, are you guys using FADE in DBC14 to counter piracy?

 

[asprin]

^Ross did mention some "bugs" which will be in pirated versions. I just can't wait for such threads complaining about these bugs when the game comes out.

If hit wicket is included I do expect to be able to "hit the stumps intentionally" i.e. be Mark Waugh!

got to love Ritchie Benaud; even when he should be wrong, he rarely is...

Coincidentally i am a big fan of Mark Waugh

Bradman's unique style MUST be depicted in the game. There is plenty of footage available for it to be replicated. My guess is that there are two styles, Bradman's and a generic style for everybody else.
I hope there are more though because games like NBA 2k13 are made to feel much more realistic because of the many playing styles (shot animations etc) represented in it. I guess that this is just the icing on the cake though and could be added to subsequent versions of the game. Let's get the gameplay and the Bradman experience nailed first.

I think if you wait for the CA update on Friday there will be more bats / "kit items". No word on the backwards bat we're all hoping for though.

It would also make sense if we're not able to just pick licensed bats from the Academy, and would need to instead get the licensed kit through the career mode and sponsorship offers.

Though I'm sure there'll be more than the Bradman/Big Ant brands, it would be nice if you couldn't just go with a Biggs branded bat from the outset. Even a blank one would be nice.

Tiger Woods 2005 did that, really added to the game in my opinion.

I guess there's a difference between a player we create in CA who we can "drop in" to any team, and a player created for the purpose of the career and that will be reflected in the options available in terms of kit etc.
