TAOC BETA Requirements / Progress Tracker

Awesome,

Getting good sound sounds like a pain but would really add something. I was watching a bit of cricket last night and it was amzing what sounds you hear during just a single delivery.

The grunt of the bowler, the ball hitting bats and pads. The sound of the batsman moving as he plays the shot is one thing I really noticed..(!) ..

Little things like this in the sound effects would be much more impostrant than commetary and would make the game stand out even more.

The bowler who I have seen mainly grunt is Shahadat Hossain
 
Hey guys, regarding sound effects..
Have you ever heard of a contact mic?? Or piezo-electric transducers?? (they are one in the same).
Basically, they're a tiny piece of metal you can get for only a couple of bucks at any decent electronics parts store that turns vibrations (sound) into current.
If you connect the wires to an audio jack, and the audio jack to a computer (or any other recording device) then you've got yourself a microphone.
They are the BEST at recording percussive/earthy type sounds, so I would imagine that taping one to a cricket bat, then hitting a couple of balls would produce some magnificent sound effects (or ball on pad, ball on stumps etc etc..).
They're dead cheap, and a 3 year old could put one together!
Just ask me if you need any more info.
 
The time this game will release I will get my new Graphic card.





Just kidding I am getting my new Graphic Card today or tomorrow so you can take this post as positive ;)
 
Disgraceful.

If you don't believe and aren't waiting for this game, dont ever open this section and post trolls. Just play EA and Mario games (;))


There have been significant proof that the game is for real and have made a lot of progress. both the developers of the game past around 8 hours a day sitting infront working hard to complete the game with all new features. Moreover they took our feedback what we would have like to, new staduims etc.


Leave it guys please ignore that tool and go on with the game, i dont mind playing it if released late, with my son :D (j/k)

Alpha

Hi Karthik, when I came to know about the art of cricket i felt really happy as I am a cricketer and i would like to seea good cricket pc game with good gameplay ( realistic swing , spin, bounce, edge( when not playing a swing ball or cutter carefully) or batsman got bitten by outswing, inswing, cutters(deviation of line of ball after pitching) to get bowled or edge, physics as per different pitch type and weather conditions and capabilities of bowlers etc etc. i tried the alpha release ..and guess what i loved it. and i love it more than cricket revolution, ashes cricket etc etc. I would like to help you in developing the game giving you ideas what a cricket fan expects from the game.

1. the bowling indicator should be removed, and bowler should be able to ball these four types of balls- short, good length, overpitched and full,
2. and these four type lines - off side zone, off stump, middle stump and leg stump/outside leg,
3. the accuracy of the ball will depend on the bowlers ability/attributes, (eg. if an average bowler tries to do an out swinger from middle and of stump within his speed limit he'll do fine, but if he tries to push his speed he'll end up landing on far outside off and swinging further away for a wide ball...same with length ..attempted short ball will become shorter, good length will become overpitched (easily played by batsman), yorker will be full toss if he bowls out of his threshold (fast bowlers speed threshold will be more for accuracy ).
4. for batsman part - A good batsman could see the ball early in the bowlers arm, so icon should be there reflecting the shinier side of the ball when it is new , so the batsman can predict which way the ball will swing / seam or googly or arm ball or normal etc etc and plan his shot accordingly. ( eg. a good batsman would see the icon pop up 2/3 seconds before the ball is released)...failing to do so he might(probability should be 90%) end up giving an edge or LBW or bowled.
5. same with legth/line for the batsman... it should pop up as an icon near the ball icon just when the ball is released....failing to play in the right line will cause him the same consequences as above.
6. placement will depend upon the above two ( how accurately played )
7. fielding and catching should be automatic and depend on the abilities


please reply what do you think about my idea. can this be done .. i am not a software eng or developer guy it might be difficult or might not be difficult to develop this type of game play. please reply..... and thanks a lot for your effort towards a good cricket game
