Ashes Cricket General Discussion

[Deleted member 185125]

Can you do it at the main menu or only in game?

In game. Don't see it in the main menu settings.

Currently playing Ashes mode on veteran difficulty with medium bowling. Find I'm getting aussi out for 200 and below no big scores. Would you guys recommend going to legend or making bowling to hard? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

You can download county sides with corrected names, player roles and stadiums from The SFC Chris. Still a work in progress though.

The SFC Chris..? Thanks for your help

Can anyone verify whether they have seen reverse swing? I did a test shining the ball every over but didn't see any impact other than the amount of swing seemed to decrease as the ball got older. Perhaps you need the right conditions ....

Does shining the ball actually make a difference..?
I've checked the ball a few times but can't see much difference

I'll have to tweak Surrey as the kits and player likenesses need doing

Yeah, player likenesses and kits haven't been done for any county teams. I know Llewelyn has working on some kits and with the PC version coming out soon others should be able to help too. See the Academy Creations sub-forum for more.

Has the Bowler and Wicketkeeper confidence rating from DBC17 been taken out totally for reviews?

Thought this was a good addition in DBC17 as it mimicked being able to talk to other close fielders in real life.

They were always hopeless at getting it right though, at least in my games!

I've just discovered the most fascinating bug that involves the Waugh twins and a possible rupture in the space time continuum.

Does it happen with Mitch Marsh and Shaun Marsh too?

So I was playing a match Australia 1993 v Australia 1993, caused I'd done the faces, a 55 over (reduced unfortunately). During my run chase batting Mark Waugh came on to bowl when I was batting with Mark Waugh.

Anyway, the view field buttons for batting appear to change at random so I just press both. Doing that with the Waughs when facing their own bowling causes what can only be described as a quantum event. Perhaps both versions are not able to occupy the same space at the same time without hilarious consequences, and one of them gaining Jedi like powers (see last replay of second video).

This is brilliant!

Looks like the result of the check condition of the ball that was added. His hand seems to be doing the same thing.

the bowling Waugh seems to be an older version of himself coming back in time.. Because I'm fairly certain Mark Waugh bowled fairly sharp medium pacers in 1993 haha
