Edge goes flying 100 miles hour for a four. Any fix via slider?
This! I'm surprised no one else didn't mention this. I was wondering if it was just on my copy.
It's extremely frustrating to see ball after ball go to the boundary off an edge at a crazy speed with zero chance for the fielder to stop it. I tried to ignore it until during one match the AI got almost 100+ runs out of 300 odd just through edged boundaries. So many 6s off defensive prods and normal drives. I got a few when I batted as well but it's game-breaking.
I checked after the patch to see if it was fixed but it wasn't.
Meanwhile, perfectly timed balls slow down before reaching the boundary which never happens on a good outfield. I feel like the edged ball physics and perfectly timed ball physics got swapped.
I'm hoping that they fix this in the next patch along with the fielder positions. In-field players stand outside the ring and out-field players walk in a lot and easily end up close to 30 yard for catches. Outfielders hardly should move-in.
Also a quick fix for not letting easy singles is to increase the speed of the throw or the speed of the fielders - atleast it keeps the gameplay in check while accounting for the slow animation loading for pick/throw and breaking the wickets.
