DBC 17 - The Complete Review! Please Answer the Poll!

[Arun A B]

One thing after 2 days of play.. This game is a money waster. Absolute money waster. I've literally lost my 3500 Rupees. I still love DBC (not DBC17). 3 years and going back! Seriously! A big let down. Never gonna buy DBC again.

This was just a cash grabbing exercise and they have achieved what they wanted. The only thing is they could have just made slight improvements to DBC 14 (without expending significant resources) and still done the cash grab, and we would have had a much better game.

Okay, return the game. Never buy again? We'll see you when the next iteration comes out and it's top class...

I've read this from various users. It's a statement made just for the sake of extending the argument (not discussion). You know what would have happened if they had done that?

"OMG! New bottle, old wine...."

"So they just took DBC14, added a few cosmetic things and dare to sell it as a new game? That's so pathetic"

"The only thing new about DBC17 is the name. Otherwise it's the same game as DBC14"

See where I'm going with this? People will complain. People will find a reason to complain. There's no way out of this. It's a double-edged sword.

But it would still at least be playable......"Its the same as DBC 14" is much better than "Its worse than DBC 14" (as voted by the majority).

To be honest I don't know why everyone is still dealing with Royce, Varun and the whole lot of them. They've clearly showed they only want to complain and wind people up and as of now everyone who replies to their arguments is pretty much equally as bad as you're adding fuel to the fire. Rather just ignore their rants (or add them to your ignore list) and let's start moving the forum back to where it should be...

I feel like Varun was really measured about 2 days ago but he's gone off his rocker as of late. Not sure why

It's simple. Single foolish game will not success.

 

[BRAB]

It's a shame as both he and royce seem like clever guys. Just getting so over the top.

Please show me where the hyperbole/hate/slang etc is in my Review piece, and if none exists how do you explain the lack of acknowledgement/support.

There is no denying that I have taken a harder stance after that. It is partly due to the game but more because of the lack of admittance, and even more because of the way so called seniors and moderators attack anyone (displaying double standards and vengeance) who does not sing praises of the game.

I was even threatened with words like 'I DARE YOU' for questioning why bits and pieces of my review were deleted from the Bigant forum and why the moderator turned it into Pink font to deter people from reading the same. The review had no hate/hyperbole and was well written but this kind of unprofessional behavior does spark a reaction.

I was playing DBC 14 a couple of weeks ago and my wife challenged me to hit a particular advertising hoarding (at long on). I missed it by a couple of feet on the 1st attempt and was able to hit it on the second.

I hope she does not pose such challenges with DBC 17..........but hey I could tell her that I can hit the ball along the same path (identical trace from the bat to the rope...as there is no stroke variation....ala Cricket 07) and proclaim my prowess at the game.

As Snowy had said before! Not much was wrong in your review, but your responses later on were pathetic! Before you ask, I don't know why the moderators at the BA Forum commit such a 'crime'.

 

[Ashnal]

I do agree with the review. Personally I still prefer to play DBC 14 over DBC 17.

• Bowling has improved but batting sucks
• field placing don't have quick access
• players look lethargic in the game
• commentary puts you to sleep
• Camera views are either too far or too close. DBC 14 bowling view was just perfect.
• Can hardly see the players face during play.

After playing for awhile you just don't feel that game and game play gets boring.

Sorry could you please rephrase this?

If you don't answer I will be forced to assume you love the game and reccomend it to everybody

I got a theory here. Both Varun and our friend Royce keep mentioning there wives. Maybe they are married to each other. They would make a nice couple.
