Just don't get your hopes up.
I don't hope it to available in this patch.

Wonder whether any of our Patch making geniuses can create a Tournament creator/editor? It will take time for something similar to appear.

I'm thinking too far though :).

First, Let this patch come soon :spy.

Yes cricket is a game played by gentleman.

And just to prove it here are a few old sayings that I am sure everyone has heard of before and they are completely off-topic but that's what you get when you have to sit around waiting for a patch: enjoy!:)

1. Rod Marsh & Ian Botham:

When Botham took guard in an Ashes match, Marsh welcomed him to the
wicket with the immortal words: "So how's your wife & my kids?"


2. Daryll Cullinan & Shane Warne:

As Cullinan was on his way to the wicket, Warne told him he had been
waiting 2 years for another chance to humiliate him.
"Looks like you spent it eating," Cullinan retorted.


3. Glenn McGrath & Eddo Brandes:

After Brandes played & missed at a McGrath delivery, the Aussie bowler
politely enquired: "Oi, Brandes, why are you so fat?"
"Cos every time I **** your wife she gives me a biscuit," Brandes replied.



4. Robin Smith & Merv Hughes:

During 1989 Lords Test Hughes said to Smith after he played & missed:
"You can't ******* bat". Smith to Hughes after he smacked him to the
boundary: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can't ******** bat & you
can't ******** bowl."


5. Merv Hughes & Javed Miandad:

During 1991 Adelaide Test, Javed called Merv a fat bus conductor. A few
balls latter Merv dismissed Javed: "Tickets please", Merv called out as he ran past the departing batsman.


6. Merv Hughes & Viv Richards:

During a test match in the West Indies, Hughes didn't say a word to
Viv, but continued to stare at him after deliveries. "This is my
island, my culture. Don't you be staring at me. In my culture we just
bowl." Merv didn't reply, but after he dismissed him he announced to
the batsman: "In my culture we just say **** off."


7. Ricky Ponting & Shaun Pollock:

After going past the outside edge with a couple of deliveries, Pollock
told Ponting: "It's red, round & weighs about 5 ounces." Unfortunately
for Pollock, the next ball was hammered out of the ground. Ponting to
Pollock: "you know what it looks like, now go find it."

And don't forget Flintoff's gesture towards Brett Lee after the Edgbaston test (?) in 2005.

Yes, once the ball got past the infield, the graphics got very choppy indeed.

Yes, it dropped to around 15fps for me, with an equally unplayable 30fps on the square (30fps would probably be ok for an FPS, but not for this game). That was before the excellent, but extremely odd, Media Player fix!

The run-out bug has been addressed.
Run-rates have been tweaked (particularly Test matches).
Edges DO carry more.
Bowler speeds HAVE been addressed.

These sounds interesting, but bowlers speeds are the ones which Heath told before released that it would get fixed. Anyways, as they said, fixing in one place might reproduce some strange bug in other place. Anyways, I am happy that they did respond to us finally.

I always thought that, once a product is released, 2-3 months support from development is essential. :) This will always build the end user relationships well.

I'm pretty sure you will find this was said by Viv Richards in a tour or county game in England.

Also, add Ian Healy to Arjuna Ranatunga who had called for a runner, "You don't get a runner for being an overweight fat ****."

So no fixes for quitters then? meaning even if they quit we still won't see who has quitted how many times? useless
When speaking from a position of ignorance (i.e. not knowing everything that's going on) it's best to ask questions and make suggestions rather than throw around assumptions.

Such as making assumptions that people "don't have any evidence"...

It would be nice to see some people come on these forums and admit that they were wrong in their accusations and personal abuse of various people. I for one have had my trials with this game and have posted various comments, some of them positive some of them less positive. I have always stated however that I have every belief that the people making and producing this game are genuine in their wish to see it developed further. We are getting a little closer to this "Holy Bail" of ours and the people involved in that genuinely want to see that get closer. Let's get behind them; yes be critical but don't be abusive towards real human beings.:)

Thanks dutchad, I appreciate that. :)

Media player fix?

I'm pretty sure they'll improve the PC performance issues for the patch.
