£50 is a crime when you can find for <£40 online. But the biggest crime is a 2015 game in DBC costing more than Ashes...
Wasn't it that Ashes was self-published so BA can drop the price? The previous games' prices are dictated by the publisher.

This is where I normally say something positive to avoid being shot down when I say something negative but...

The lack of subtlety in the change of grass colour from pitches to outfield (In an absolute straight line) looks awful and potentially hugely distracting when playing.

I’m going off online clips, haven’t played Ashes for ages but comparing the two when viewing clips online I do hope it’s not gonna compromise all the progress made elsewhere.
The outfield looks alarmingly bright which I guess I can change but the contrast is... ugly!

To be honest, they could make the outfield a flat tessellated pattern of wangs for all I care as all as long as the core gameplay elements are working at release.

Yes it was something along them lines. Hence the Don bradman games were and are still more expensive where Ashes has dropped price alot.

Yeah noticed that too,seemed pretty wierd at first and was quite surprised that no one mentioned it here. I think it ll be fixed in the final version ( well i sure hope so) ,right now grass looks comically bright.

While gameplay is king ,i don't believe its the only metric a game shoupd be measured on ,good graphics are important too,very much so in modern games

Well everyone who plays the game have their own views on what they find most immersive or enjoyable. I personally prefer Gameplay, Animations and Graphics to make me enjoy the game. Some people prefer Customizations. I guess there are no right or wrong preferences here.

However, it is important to know what the Developers’ vision is for the game and if it is aligned with yours then you buy the game. BigAnt have always been upfront about the fact that gameplay is their first priority, which includes AI, while customisation is the close second. They have worked extensively on the other aspects like animations etc, however if there were any conflicts, it’s the gameplay that would have received the preference being the higher priority.

So you may not like the animations or the graphics, but it’s ok. They weren’t the first priority at this stage anyways. However, you should be constructively vocal about it as well so that BigAnt knows about your requests/wants.

Well, I got bored halfway writing this post so please forgive me if it didn’t make any sense by the end of it :p
