Xbox X vs PS5 version - any major differences? which is better? Thx

Can someone please summarize the differences between the Xbox X and PS5 versions? Is one clearly superior to the other? Thanks!

Thanks! On 6, I mean that in earlier games (C22 etc) there wasn't much effect on movement after you selected the ball -- does the "After touch" in C24 have any significant effect? What about 1 - AI chasing?

Anyone? I did search the forums and didn't find anything concrete on this yet.

Hi, just catching up on Cricket 24. I've bought all the previous cricket games from BA, but they've always started very buggy and got patched after 6-9months. So waiting on this one to see if it's in a reasonable state. I don't care about the cosmetics - graphics/sound/commentary etc; only the...

Thanks. Has the AI improved in any way in the July patch or the new DLC? Especially the field placements and chasing?

Thanks @MattW for the clarification. Now just hoping the last remaining AI issues are fixed in the next version.

I downloaded Cricket 19 via my Xbox Ultimate Game Pass account on my XONE today. In the Xbox console, when I look at the game/add-on manager page, it shows that it has installed Cricket 19 base game (16.2 GB) followed by Version 1.1.7.0 However, when I launch the game and go to the credits...

Real shame the switch owners have gotten screwed over this. Would have loved the new patch.

any news on this @MattW ? thanks

Visited the forums after a while and was pleasantly surprised to see that a new patch has been released! didn't expect that. Great job BA. Quick q - has the AI field placements been improved in this patch? :fingers crossed: I didn't spot that in the patch notes but am hoping they addressed it...

Yep, this issue has been there for a while. Sadly I don't see it being patched which makes D/N games unplayable. As a result, I only play day games.

The surprising thing is that I thought the AI field changes were at least somewhat reasonable in Ashes...its taken a step back in Cricket 19 where the AI mostly does not respond to your scoring, and the rare times that it does, it makes some irrelevant changes. And from a programming...

Can someone confirm whether the AI not changing fields in response to the user/player's scoring areas is a known issue even for the console/PC versions? I have the latest Switch version, and my main gripe with the AI is the field placements (playing on Legend or Veteran AI). I can hit a lofted...

though that is such a painful workaround to do each time :(
