In terms of humidity, just remember Brisbane is bloody humid as well. Don't be FIFA 10 and have it snow in Brisbane for a match, unheard of!!!

Why would it snow in a cricket match? Cricket is played in summer.

Although it has snowed before in a few county games.

Why will there be a match during the snow in first place? Matches are abandoned or delayed when it rains so forget about playing in the snow.

Has the fielding been done yet?

Just had a look at this thread, anyone else aware the first post was in 2005? Is this a joke? Rome was built faster than this game is being developed

Well, these guys are basically doing it in their spare time, for free and doing a bloody good job of it as well! They are not a group of professional developers just a couple of people trying to make something that is actually a decent game.

Rome actually took a lot longer to build and in fact the rumour is that Romulus stood impatiently at the gates of the developing city and asked the famous question: "Jeez guys haven't you finished yet??? TAOC will be out before you lot are done!!"

did you know they nearly completely overhauled the whole game to make it better for the end user? They have spent 4 years on it, it means slow progress but also means that they are incredibly dedicated. As dutchy said, JK and LM both have lives and full time jobs outside of this, they are dedicating their own free time, and as things stand, aren't expecting us to give them a penny*

*This is subject to change, they may well set up a donation scheme to which people can donate their money for however much they think the game is worth.

In that case it sounds like this will probably not be a very good game. Credit to the developers for making it for the love of the game, however reading through the thread, I cant help but feel this will be a huge disappointment when it comes out.

At least there not building themselves up as the best cricket game ever :sarcasm

I fail to see what that has to do with anything. Also its not as if TAOC is lacking any fanboys either :laugh

Well having read through the thread and been keeping track on this game for quite a while and the attention to detail is amazing and if they manage to implement even half of what they say they can and are doing it will be a very well-worth while. I am not a fan-boy just someone who appreciates good honest work and looking forward to this game when it releases! (take note: not if!)

If I go by LM's words and that Grand Announcement, then our long wait will be over pretty soon. Why don't we be patient till then and put a check on hurling random criticisms at TAOC?

Doesn't matter tbh. People can criticize the game if they want. There's a reason that LM and jkartik aren't responding. They're going to let their game do the talking for them.

So since Duff isn't here no longer, who is doing commentary?
