This is it - Ashes Cricket (Beta Feedback)

[mattk]

Oh. And we currently have static pitch cameras in the beta. Whether or not they reach the final title, I’m unsure.

I’ve only used them to bowl. They very accurately replicate what you’ve seen in previous EA titles. As such, they’re awful to play with with the traditional DBC controls (opinion). They might be better suited to the new controls.

Nice of Big Ant to put in a static pitch camera for those that requested it. I still can't believe it took so long for people to finally communicate that's what they meant by 'broadcast cam' when its been something they've been whinging about since Big Ant revolutionised cricket games.

A question I have about career. Is a licensed Ashes series something that only happens once in career and the rest of the time its a generic Australia vs England test series.? Or is the Australian Ashes series licensed every time it comes up?

Cool. More options the better!

Thanks man for working with BA on this request. I really appreciate it!! I am sure its gona add a lot of value to the game.

Question: is there any weather variations in the game like cloudy, overcast etc?

Yes there is. Visible clouds with visible rain and rain breaks.

Thanks to the beta tester team. Gave a lot of insights to the game. Much appreciated.
Have one questions though, is it possible to edit or give custom competition/tournament names? ( Not sure if this is answered already). Thanks in advance.

Any reason the bowling is
180km + ?

I remember the testers mentioning that he was playing with the bowling sliders up. Hence higher bowling speed. I think that's why.

Any chance to see even an over of the static cameras?

I’ll post a screenshot in an hour or so unless another tester can post in the mean time

Is there a near and far static or just one? If so how close?

I’ve only played single matches and haven’t seen any. Can’t speak to career or tournament modes.

Was wondering about the use of the precision shot (unless the beta testers have been using the original controls), does this allow us to play 'attacking shots' with just less power to nudge the ball around for 1's and 2's? (similar to how in IC10 you'd have the power stick to control how much power in the shot).

Yeah you are right, it's to nudge the ball around. It was present in DBC , R1 button. I never used it, personally I felt the nudge always used to go mid off. Maybe I wasn't using it apart from straight drives

Hey @WealeyH.

Can we see a video of you actually playing ? Not just the computer playing itself. Cheers.

You winding me up?!

Are these static cams just an additional ones along with original DBC17 cameras i doubt. Since static cams are not good with controller to play
