Problems with this game

[underdog642]

I have had just about enough of this game. It used to be fun but now there's so much that annoys me about it that I really don't care anymore. Anyway, after I almost busted the controller in frustration, the time spent on this game may be limited.

Things that need to be fixed/improved.

* Bowling speeds for AI - fast bowlers don't bowl at 108kmh

* More realistic line and length for AI - It seems the computer only knows how to bowl short

* Unrealistic fields by the AI - starting test/first class matches with a deep mid off and other boundary riders from ball one.

* Scattergun bowling engine. Doesn't seem to matter how I hold the controls, there's no consistency in where the ball lands.

* Too many shots going through third man/deep backward square leg for six.

* Fast bowlers in the slips cordon, slips fielders in the outfield. (Warner at fine leg, Johnson at 2nd slip)

* Biggest gripe of all - stop the AI changing the field at the end of each over. I get things all sorted the way I want them but it doesn't stay and then I have to keep changing things all the time. Can we have an option in the next version to save fields in game or at least stop the AI from fiddling with it.

You do not know how to bowl and its clearly projected in the game. If you understand the controls and have basic knowledge about how ball swings, you would enjoy bowling more than batting. I get ball 95% of times where i want to. Small tip, if you want to bowl a inswinger to a right hand batsman by a left arm bowler over the wicket. Then first you have to come close to the wicket while delivering the ball and then when you are delivering using the Right analog, you need to throw the ball outside off stump. Only then it will swing back and end up on middle or leg stump. If you aim the stumps then call would swing inwards and clearly miss the leg stump and thus resulting in a wide or easy flick.

* Too many shots going through third man/deep backward square leg for six.

* Fast bowlers in the slips cordon, slips fielders in the outfield. (Warner at fine leg, Johnson at 2nd slip)
So what, you can change that manually.

1. Try upping the difficulty you play on... quickies bowl at approx. 140-152kmh on Pro
2. The line isn't all bad all the time (according to me at least).
3. Field settings are an issue.
4. Bowling machine can't bowl bouncers.
5. The AI batting is rather unrealistic especially when they hit a yorker off middle over the slips for 6.
6. Seems like something that only bugs some people.
7. I haven't had that, I only have to change my fields if a wicket falls between my spells/overs.

If those things make you want to bust your controller in frustration then maybe you need some anger management!

Which difficulty do you play on? Play on legend to get the most realistic experience. Morne Morkal will give you nightmares lol :P

* More realistic line and length for AI - It seems the computer only knows how to bowl short
Again I would suggest playing on legend, as then the AI will set the field accordingly even if it decides to bowl continuous bouncers.

* Unrealistic fields by the AI - starting test/first class matches with a deep mid off and other boundary riders from ball one.
Looks fine to me as when I block 2-3 deliveries the field gets set to aggressive.

* Scattergun bowling engine. Doesn't seem to matter how I hold the controls, there's no consistency in where the ball lands.
Can't agree here. You need to improve your bowling. The ball will obey you as much as it obeys the real bowlers. There can be no 100% consistent placement, not even for Glenn McGrath.

* Too many shots going through third man/deep backward square leg for six.
On legend, third man sixes are reduced a lot. You can only hit it on shorter deliveries which is also the case in real life. However, I do agree on the backward square leg sixes.

* Fast bowlers in the slips cordon, slips fielders in the outfield. (Warner at fine leg, Johnson at 2nd slip)
This is a problem and will stay a problem unless they give a system in which you select a preferred field position for the player in the academy and the game recognizes that position and places him accordingly. A good solution would be to allow custom fields to be saved while in a match so that you could arrange your fielders and save that field for your particular team.

* Biggest gripe of all - stop the AI changing the field at the end of each over. I get things all sorted the way I want them but it doesn't stay and then I have to keep changing things all the time.

Like I said, having an option to save your custom fields while in a match would help a lot of us saving precious minutes of our life.
