    India in England Jun-Sept 2014

    Lords has been a road for the last few years, but it does usually have a bit in it for bowlers. If you can bowl good lines the natural slope always brings the slips and keeper into play.

    India in England Jun-Sept 2014

    As if England don't already play a dour enough brand of cricket they're now producing awful pitches too. If anything kills test cricket, it'll be a suicide rather than a murder.

    Patch#2 Notes - Patch is Live

    Definitely seeing increased stuttering on mine. I've found it happening when crossing during running. When the umpire is signalling and occassionally when bowling spin. The last of those is the only really annoying one as it can make it much harder to nail the spin and timing.

    Patch#2 Notes - Patch is Live

    One of the only reasons patches have to be resubmitted is if they contain game crashing bugs. Not that surprised to hear the patch has led to 'stuttering.' I imagine they're knock on effects of whatever was causing the crashes having been semi-resolved. A little worrying that the patch has...

    My money is on it being Microsoft. They're notoriously t*attish when it comes to patches.

    How are you doing in your career?

    When does the difficulty go up? Is it level/exp inspired or just time based? I can see when playing for England it had gotten harder because the markers disappeared but when playing for Middlesex or South Australia a bowling average that started at around 7 and ended up at 5 doesn't suggest it...

    How are you doing in your career?

    So a good mate spent the last week at mne. We started a batting all-rounder on Pro as neither of us have ever played the game before. We're currently just at the start of our third season. We have just over 400 first class wickets at an average of around 5. Our best innings figures are 10-11...

    Don Bradman Cricket 14 PC PLAYABLE NOW!

    It's probably mentioned, but it's not in the first post. What are the system requirements for this on PC?

    It generally takes game breaking bugs for it to pulled. We're talking system crashes or hard reboots for it to not get allowed through. Or you need to be EA and then you can just release whatever you want.

    Post your questions about the game here!

    Thanks bud. So I can still set up an ashes series (or more likely Eng v SL) and we can play with one controller. Would I be right that this isn't possible in career mode? Will I be limited to just my own player or can we also take the rest of the team? Thanks again!

    Post your questions about the game here!

    Pretty sure there's been some confusion as to the difference between question and statement. Anyway, is this game actually any good yet? I've got a mate coming down for a week and we're quite keen for a good two player cricket game. Is it possible to play local 1v1? Is it possible to play 2 v...

    No one said anything about your balls being sucked. Now pucker up, Barmy is getting cold.

    Elections? Clearly the only way to decide any 'elections' is via Mortal Kombat. Which reminds me, who would win in a fight? Tweedle-dee, or tweedle-dum?

    Brazil 2014 Fifa World Cup Thread

    Yet again England have been cursed before the tournament. Pretty sure England are missing their best centre back, Ledley King, with injury, their best ever midfielder, Duncan Edwards, is dead and Marlon King is ruled out due to crashing his car in the middle of committing rape. How we're meant...
