AI still slogging with impunity in ODIs.

Not sure why all batsmen start with green confidence now either? Guessing it was done to help out the player when batting but it just makes it even more frustrating to bowl.

Was going to have a game, might give it a miss for now.

Played lofted on drive but animation played was off drive

AI prod shots are not there anymore

I gave up when I bowled a cross-seamer halfway down the track, batsman played a front foot drive and the ball hit the splice basically at the handle. Sailed over mid-off for six.

Guess I'll stick to test matches again.

Yeah their test batting is sensible, but t20 and odi format AI batting is over the roof

Issue I have is it’s easy to get perfect perfect when bowling..

But the AI need runs in limited overs to compete.. so they are going to have to launch perfect perfect balls as well..

I’m not sure how it would be fixed

Make perfect perfect perfect a rare thing to happen and when it does the ball moves viciously or get extra bounce having ai in all sorts of trouble?

Well I would start by suggesting that how well they can launch good balls should probably be based somewhat on their confidence level. So in that respect starting everyone on green confidence now was not very smart.

In addition to what I said a Risk and reward system just like top spin 3 will do it just fine no the chance of risk is not a no ball but a poor quality ball.

batting is more rightly balanced now with more power in shots as well as edges for reckless shots

unable to reap edges from AI batting

Anything on the shots to the square. The nerfed ones?

 

[Wealey]

I personally feel batting is far too easy in this build. Be interested to hear what people think!

They are good but those wrong animations ruin the experience

Checked the ground training mode too...

The fixed far & fixed close cameras are at a weird angle ( like fixed spider cam above mid on / midwicket ) unlike the actual fixed far / close angles as in the game...(which are absolutely amazing)

Also when I switched to bowling machine with broadcast camera 1 as batting camera... I got this weird angle where I could not seen anything...

Fixed Far (human bowler while me batting) gave this spider cam angle while the actual fixed far camera in game is brilliant...
View attachment 209485

Fixed close gives similar angle....

Hope these too being minor bugs can get corrected soon...

Its a welcome addition of new camera angles (so we can fine tune batting timing in the real training & also play with the sliders...

This issue exists in ground training for broadcast since dbc17 after patch 3. Before that it used to work fine. Looks like it now shifted to batting close and far cameras as well.

Hi, are you talking about tests or limited overs or both?
