Review : DBC 14 - PC version, Patch 2

I wonder if there's a correlation between the amount of people needing a pitch marker and the same people who bemoan it's absence actually buying the game? I have a sneaking suspicion the people struggling with the new batting controls maybe don't just get random disconnects but the shot selection is hindered in illegal versions...
 
hey..i can;t find link of patch 2..if possible can anybody give it to me..whenever i try to update player name it shows that i need to download the latest version..can anybody help me?
 
Lol stupid people not realising that the game is patched automatically through Steam... ONLY once you have bought a legit copy of the game! Haha!

I have stopped playing because there is no "pitch marker". What's the harm in having this option? Experts can switch that off and play but people like me playing 1 hr 3-4 times weekly can enjoy batting and not just keep on holding front foot and playing leg side - rubbish!

I fail to understand the fuss about it - it is just a game. People are trying to make it closer to reality but hey, in reality you do not play cricket with two thumbs controlling joysticks, sitting on couch and save game and resume later. This is a video game so please Big Ant, have that option - if not I am enjoying FIFA 2014 anyway.
 
Then stop holding front foot/playing leg side and try and actually bat properly?
 
What's great about this game, now that the aerial shots have been fixed, is that you really are playing the ball on its merits. Put in a pitch marker and that kills one of the best part of the game.

Look, I'm rubbish at games generally and yet I can bat quite well without the need to be told where the ball is going to pitch.

I'm sorry but was there a patch or something on PC which impacted gameplay? If yes, pls do let me know what was fixed and its impact. I'm on console so can't experience the change for myself.
