Game Version: v0.1.1292
Game Mode: test series
Match Type: test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground: any
Over Count: any
Issue: player stats drop
Bug description: playing the 4th test in the Ashes series and Anderson's overall has dropped to 72 from 78. He's not injured and it doesn't seem to be a form issue as he was my best bowler in the previous test, which England won by 7 wickets.

Issue (one line description): Can't always choose direction of spin bowler
Bug description (detail): When bowling spin, most of the time when it comes to choosing the direction, it gets chosen for me as really wide on the on side without me even pressing any button. This causes me to bowl a lot of wides. It selects this itself and I'm not sure why because I do not move any button on my controller.

Platform: Ps4 Pro
Game Version: v0.1.1293
Game Mode: tournaments / Stadium creator
Match Type: all
Teams used: any
Ground: custom grounds
Over Count: n/a
Issue (one line description): Menus don't refresh properly
Bug description
I've noticed there's a refresh issue with the menus it is having carry over effects on many modes of the game.

For example if you play a custom tournament. Firstly u are selecting teams. For Example say u toggle to the cpl to select a team then hit triangle to select another team the team selection toggle would be on cpl since u last selected a team from that league but the menu hasn't refreshed and would just show the international teams so ud have to toggle out of cpl and back in for the team list to refresh.

Same issue effects custom stadiums in tournaments. The pitch conditions don't refresh in the menu so you are stuck regardless of stadium with a standard medium pitch. You can only refresh the pitch conditions if u play the fixture by changing the stadium for that fixture back to the stadium thst was already assigned this will refresh the pitch conditions to what was set in the stadium creator. So unless u are playing every fixture every other match would be stuck with a standard medium pitch. I'd Imagine this would have some knock on effect on simulated scores as all Ai simulated fixtures would be on a standard medium pitch.

I'd imagine this issue would effect career mode too.

The refresh issue also effects the stadium creator. For example say want to make a small tweek to a stadium in Ur data base. You will notice some pavilions and large grand stands with roof have lost connection (snapping) . Sometimes u won't notice and save after making changes. In a match U might then notice some pavilions and grand stands aren't connected.

The connection (snapping) between certain pavilions and grandstands wasnt lost just in the stadium creator everything hasn't refreshed properly so if u don't fix it first then save u will override Ur stadium without pavilions and grandstands being snapped. Noticed that when u change one of the adboards in the list 1-16. The stadium refreshes and pavilions and grandstands are back connected.

So there is some kinda input lag in the menus effecting certain settings, menus fail to refresh properly. All settings in the menus should be refreshing instantly not just when u make a change for example changing the stadium in a tournament fixture to get the correct pitch conditions.

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Ashes series
Match Type: Test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground: Edgbaston, (first test).
Over Count: 83rd over, and again in the 85th over
Issue: Successful wicket Keeper catches not registering the batsman as out.

Bug description: After fielding as Tim Paine for 83 overs & finally catching Root out behind on a mind numbing 162 (attempting to get the 5 x Tim Paine Ashes series catch achievement), twice in the space of 3 overs Root was unequivocally caught behind by the keeper off nicked balls, the keeper & team all celebrated the catches, but the game then just continued on regardless with Root still at the crease!!

Same match.

Over count: 92.
Issue: Reflex catching system then ceased to respond altogether.

Additionally, in over 92 Moen Ali then nicked another fast delivery & the reflex catching system just didn't respond to any movement from the analogue stick at all.

(I really do enjoy this game & I've been developing a player starting from a rookie career for some time now with countless hours of play, but hell does it have some seriously annoying bugs at times that are really very basic indeed. Many of which might I add, I just can't believe the developers haven't addressed by now either. I haven't been posting about them here because they're so basic & some have apparently been repeatedly reported since the game was released too. I had assumed the devs were on the case but that old saying about assumptions comes to mind again. About time the devs sorted some of this stuff out really!! Will start posting up the additional bugs as enough is enough. They need to fix these issues for the sake of those that have purchased this product (especially those that own multiple titles in the series), or for those that will pay for it in the future.

Thanks .

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Ashes series
Match Type: Test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground: Lords - second test, specifically. (However, have seen this same issue in countless other matches, modes, & venues as well.)
Over Count: 67th over, and again in the 69th over, (although repeatedly happening randomly).
Issue: Wicket keeper standing up to the stumps for a spinner repeatedly missing basic catches or stops, (ball not struck/nicked by the batsman & the ball not bowled wide).

I'm aware there have been countless complaints of keepers simply not reacting at all since game release to fast or spin bowling when it's a ball they could undoubtedly have reached or at least got a glove to if they actually tried, but instead decided to become an on field spectator. Failing that, at the very least they could attempt to reach any tough chances rather than just standing there. (Like the absolutely inhuman & Herculean leaps I keep seeing from certain fast bowlers who are apparently capable of launching themselves completely over & across the pitch in the blink of an eye, (whilst instantly reversing their direction of travel too) to catch a fast moving ball off their own bowling.). Yet, it seems that it's intentional to portray specialist wicket keepers in game as lazy who just can't be bothered to put any effort into the tougher chances or that they're just utterly incompetent. (I often see 1st slip making a ridiculous dive across to take a ball headed straight for the keeper as well.). This seriously needs attention & it's not like there hasn't been sufficient time to address these issues since the game was released.

What's more, after noting at least two of these occurrences in one innings for this bug report, both times the ball missed absolutely everything as it passed by the batsman & the stumps, (although they weren't wides either). Again, the keeper just stood watching as the ball passed by. However, the AI batsmen ran 2 or 3 runs both times despite no contact of any kind with the ball & the umpire then incorrectly signalled "leg byes" instead of the actual "byes", & these byes were then incorrectly recorded as leg byes on the scorecard as well. (Granted, a small issue as technically the batting side gets the same benefit either way but it really should be factually correct.)

(These are yet more issues I'm seeing repeatedly in multiple different match types, game modes, & at multiple different venues. It's not just specific to this match alone.)

With regards .

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Ashes series
Match Type: Test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground: Headingley - third test.
Over Count: N/A
Issue: Xbox achievement "Bring the Paine" failed to trigger upon successful completion in game. (Manual play as Tim Paine throughout with no simulation.)

Bug description: "Bring the Paine" Xbox One achievement hasn't triggered on goal completion. Following an additional & utterly mind numbingly boring experience of another 200 overs in the field manually controlling Tim Paine in the third test (now over a total of 500 overs chasing this achievement too), the achievement simply failed to kick in despite actually taking 6 total keeper catches during the match. (As much as I do enjoy this game this failure/glitch has been somewhat annoying because of the time & effort involved multiplied by the sheer boredom factor!! (My main career is based around a top order batsman as that's the role/mode I subjectively prefer in general, but the various achievements are ultimately there for a reason too for players to take up the challenges involved.) It takes a lot of pretty boring time & effort away from one's preferred modes to make some of these achievements & this is what you get for it. It also leaves me wondering just how many of the other available achievements will end up failing as a complete waste of time if attempted? Turning any enjoyment into outright disappointment & frustration with the product in the process.)

The previous bugs reported immediately above also played their part of stopping an earlier completion as well & this was the third attempt (probably the final one after this too), only for this increasingly unreliable product to glitch out again when I finally did complete the required goal.

(Of some note - When I first switched over to Cricket 19 (from Don Bradman's) with my new rookie career, at the time it was great, I experienced very few issues indeed. The only regular bugs I really noticed were minor aesthetics or cosmetics such as the completely wrong match type was announced pretty much at the start of every match, (i.e. a 4 day club or county first class match was always announced incorrectly by commentators as an ODI, etc.). Or, the completely wrong stadiums were frequently loaded for the two English county teams actually participating, (i.e. an English county first class match intended to be at the Kia Oval would actually be loaded at one of the large Indian or Pakistani stadiums instead).

Since, however, the further I seem to progress through the game as a whole the worse these bugs & glitches are becoming that just weren't present before.

With regards .

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Ashes series, (& also in career mode).
Match Type: Test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground: Edgebaston - first test.
Over Count: 30
Issue: Batsman's skill strengths/weaknesses incorrectly double reported as the same.

Bug description: Example - S. Curran, strengths & weakness skills were both reported as the glance shot. Obviously, this simply isn't possible. (Photo of reference attached.)

As with so many other bugs/glitches in this product this is purely one example & it isn't confined to any single over, ground, player, match type or game mode. It occurs frequently in all formats & modes, at multiple grounds, & with multiple players.

It frequently happens with bowlers as well, with the skill strength & weakness also both being reported as the same.

Regards.

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Ashes series, (& also in career mode).
Match Type: Test, (although frequently happens in many other "long form" matches).
Teams used: England v Australia, (but also happens with multiple other domestic or national teams).
Ground: Edgebaston - first test. (Again, this isn't an issue confined to any one ground & it continually happens at many other different grounds.)
Over Count: 18th over
Issue: Player names keep randomly disappearing from the "field editor" to be replaced with a generic "Fielder no.X"

Bug descriotion: One example - As over 18 began in this specific match I entered the field editor to make some changes to the field & initially three named players had been replaced with a simple generic label of "fielder no.7", "fielder no.8" & "fielder no.9". (Photo of field editor attached for reference.)

This problem simply initiated at the start of the 18th over of this particular match in this instance. However, this is once again a bug/glitch that I repeatedly see at multiple grounds, with multiple teams & during multiple match types. (Although, it is almost always the longer form matches that are affected by this issue. I can only recall seeing it in ODI's or T20's a handful of times throughout my player's still relatively young career.)

Regards.

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Career
Match Type: T20I
Teams used: England v Pakistan
Ground:. Headingley
Over Count: 3 & 4
Issue: Two instances of my player on field together simultaneously.

Bug description: A second instance of my player suddenly appeared next to me whilst fielding in the slips. (Additionally confirmed by checking the field editor, I was also listed as being in two different fielding positions there as well. (Photo attached & apologies for low quality, was snapped in a rush.))

I've always wished for the ability to be in two places at once, maybe I should quit while the going is good !!

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: World Championship
Match Type: ODI
Teams used: England v Bangladesh
Ground:. Sussex Oval
Over Count: N/A
Issue: Ground incorrectly loaded for the match was Nottingham Trent & not the Sussex Oval.

Bug description: Wrong grounds repeatedly loading for the stated venues.

Yet again, another bug routinely seen in all different games modes, match types & regardless of the teams used.

Come on Big Ant, we pay a pretty premium for your products. Not only are they absolutely loaded with very basic bugs & glitches on release, but over a year later they still haven't been addressed either.

To add every stadium in my career mode has a randwick road end even the official stadiums

 

[Arctic_Wolf]

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: World Championship Test League
Match Type: Test
Teams used: England v Australia
Ground:. Kia Oval
Over Count: Present regardless of the specific over.

Issue: When setting the slip fielders to move "up" via the quick tactics they actually move back instead, & vice versa, setting them "back" incorrectly moves them up.

Bug description: This is only happening with spin bowlers, (or off spinners at least & I didn't have a leg spinner in the playing 11 to verify with both in this instance). With the quick's bowling the slips continued to behave as expected & move up, back, or to their normal positions as selected.

 

[Arctic_Wolf]

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Career mode
Match Type: All
Teams used: England, (primarily, but happens with all teams).
Ground:. All
Over Count: N/A

Issue: When choosing other than default equipment (helmets/pads/arm guards/etc.), the chosen equipment isn't retained after each match when using a custom created "star player".

Bug description: I've done the whole build up to international standard from a rookie thing (twice in fact) & I wanted to try a new career in a different role without having to do everything from scratch all over again.

Ergo, I created my own custom star player & assigned different equipment other than those used by default but each time a match ends the game just resets any equipment I've chosen back to the defaults again.

I've also applied custom logos to helmets & pads as well but obviously these too disappear when the kit reverts back to the defaults too.

(I can't recall this happening with a player I started with as a rookie, but having said that, I don't think I ever actually changed the equipment from the defaults for my rookie career players anyway!!)

Another annoying bug. Please fix. TYVM.

Platform: Xbox One X
Game Version: v 0.1.1292
Game Mode: Career mode
Match Type: ODI, (however, as with many of these bugs it happens in all match types).
Teams used: England vs Afghanistan in this instance, (but the same glitch happens with other teams too).
Ground: All
Over Count: N/A

Issue: Players not in the playing 11 (or even the 12th man for that matter) are being accredited catches during a match.

Bug description: (Will include photos.) However, in this example Alex Hales wasn't even in the match yet he is somehow magically being accredited with catches??? (I don't know, these ridiculous bugs truly are stacking up in addition to dozens reported by others & Big Ant apparently just don't want to remedy these problems anymore !! "HOWZAAAT", we gotcha money, ran, & you can all just put up with the bugs.)

Match Type: Test, (however, as with many of these bugs it happens in all match types).
Teams used: England vs Australia in this instance, (the same glitch happens with other teams too).
Ground: All
Over Count: N/A

Issue: Player fielding skills/ratings not correctly applied.

Bug description: (Will include photo.) In this instance the AI player "C. Chapman" has been given a *0 rating at the position of deep forward mid-wicket. However, I created this player & know for certain his skill in this fielding position is *70. (In fact, ANY fielders with a high skill rating that I place in the same general/outfield positions are often given a *0 or a *5 rating despite the fact that they actually have a *70 or *80 rating in those positions. This directly affects their performance in these fielding positions such as constantly dropping easy catches or failing to stop easy chances on the boundaries etc.) If I place them back in the infield or a catching position their ratings return to normal again but the problem persists as the player who takes their place is still immediately given a *0 again as well. (I.e. it's a persistent bug & you can't win no matter what you do.)

As with just about every other bug/glitch reported, yet again this is merely one example of it. I see it routinely regardless of the game mode, match type, grounds, teams used, or the over count.
