    Patch Discussion - PS4 (1.11), Xbox One (1.0.0.12) and Steam

    Played my first ODI in about 6 months this evening after hearing about the new update. All gameplay settings on medium difficulty. Started poorly with the bat but my timing improved as the game went on. All of my wickets were the result of poor shot selection or mistiming. Most of the top...

    Ashes Cricket Media Discussion

    Some of the comments on this thread are hilarious. You'd think that cricketers might have enough patience to wait 20-odd days to have their questions answered. For my part, the first few videos look great. I'm very optimistic that this game will be able to satisfy my list for TV-style...

    Don Bradman Cricket 17 - Official Trailer!

    Not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but did anyone else notice the reaction from the short leg fielder to having the ball hit their way? Fantastic animation. A little pixelated due to the way I've captured this, but...

    Don Bradman Cricket 17 World Premiere Discussion

    Generally speaking, I'd say that's correct. There is probably about the same proportion of bowlers capable of delivering 140+ in domestic cricket as there is international. Even at district cricket it's not unusual to see guys bowling at 140ks. The real difference is their accuracy and ability...

    Don Bradman Cricket 17 World Premiere Discussion

    I must say, having only watched the first 5 minutes of the Career Mode video, I'm stoked! Introducing club level cricket is a fantastic addition to the career mode and will add longevity to the game. As it stands, getting selected to play for your state at the age of 16 in DBC14 doesn't...

    To what degree were you impressed by what you saw in the play session?

    After watching the playtest session at EB I was a little worried about what kind of product Big Ant had produced. However I also knew that Ross was super keen to not use the beta version that they did. So I reserved my judgement until seeing the Apocalypse Gaming Youtube capture of the final...

    Post your questions about the game here!

    Will there be a challenge mode that involves hitting a golf ball against a water tank with a fence pailing? :spy

    Announcement/Video and Screenshots/Playsession

    I suspect Ross would be quite pleased that the only issues you can find with the video are standard clipping problems that occur in every sport game.

    1st Test: England v Australia at Nottingham Jul 10-14, 2013

    People writing the Aussies off pretty quick. Agar's knock will have instilled a lot of confidence within the dressing room. Not to mention Hughes and Smith have got some confidence and hunger. Will be an interesting days cricket, first partnership is crucial.

    Post your questions about the game here!

    Just use the fake names! All we want to see is how realistic your game gets the scores. Having said that, on the performance of yesterdays debacle nothing would surprise me. :facepalm

    Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

    I agree that Big Ant's marketing seems a bit strange at times, but that still doesn't give you the right to continually demand gameplay footage. It would be nice to see some soon, but if it doesn't you should calm down! :yes We will see gameplay footage before the game is released. I'm sure...

    And my point is that it will come, but you need to pull your head in and display some patience.

    Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

    You haven't been asked to buy anything yet. When the product is on the shelves then it would be fair to demand a demonstration, not before. We all love seeing gameplay videos, but that doesn't entitle us to them. We don't own the product.

    Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

    Martyn you are being utterly ridiculous. No company is obliged to reveal information about their product before it is released to consumers. As such you have no right to demand the release of gameplay footage. It's worth acknowledging that video game developers are in a different situation to...
