Actually Offline game is too good for my liking. made a few tweaks here and there with overall fielding skills of players and it looks like a wonderful game. I would rate 9/10 for the offline part alone. Though the career mode and community is not at its full potential I hope the next patch iron out those issues.
The online game which is loved by many (we have a league of 40+ players) is a complete mess. And I will keep reiterating like a parrot till the time someone from beta or BA responds to this. We pay a good amount of money for the game and for the PSN subscription to play the online game. I think we deserve answers for the below questions.
1. Why there is no lock on skills for players when the request was made ages ago after ashes got released and it was identified as a problem. People play games with their tweaking skills than cricketing skills because of this. Now don't give me the crap that what can BA do if people decide to exploit game. Well ICC frame laws and rules according to change in the game. They did not let Trevor Chappel or anyone else bowl underarm after the infamous incident. Similarly Big Ant should have some responsibility to the customers who want to play genuine cricket without going through things like this.
2. Loopy bouncer by medium pacer - just answer to this question. In real life if Stuart Binny keeps bowling 110 kmph slow bouncer ball to a Buttler or a Gayle what happens 9/10 times?
3. Game turning into a guess the right answer!!
Not all the players but most players have one skill in the game run in fast and ball slow.. run in slow and ball fast!! And occassionally run in fast and bowl fast!! If you can guess the right option you will thrive else you will fail!! What sort of a shitty way to play the game is this. I know it's more to do with the mentality of the player than the developers but this is only happening because the option is present to the players to do this. This needs to be fixed.
4. Ball marker: some players clearly know to exploit it and some choose not to. Ball shows off side colouring and goes to middle stump and all other possible combinations!! If the ball marker cannot show the right place it's going remove it from the game or fix it.. don't make it a stupid joke!!
@BigAntStudios has the responsibility to the online gameplay community and should answer to these above!!
