Does the player editor allow you to correct this?Īlthough the editor allows you to change players’ names, their appearance is not customisable. We know you can edit players, are you able to also create new players? In the latest video Chris Martin has blonde hair while in reality he has brown hair. Although it was implemented in early versions of the code, people were banging their heads against the wall: there’s nothing worse than being on the verge of a massive landmark batting score or a World Cup victory and the heavens opening! Of course, in real cricket this is just part of the game, but given the option of making life ‘fairer’ to the player, we have taken the liberty of gifting them good weather!ĭo you have the option of switching on automatic fielding?įielding is part manual, part automatic: the best-positioned fielder will move to the ball automatically and the player times the throw/catch using an on-screen meter. Humidity can affect swing and drift, hot weather will dry out the pitch to speed up the breaking up of a wicket for spinners (right down to bowler’s footmarks on the wicket to bowl into!) Every effort has been made to make sure that all factors have been faithfully imported from real life into this game.Īs far as rain delays go, although weather conditions affect the outcome of CPU v CPU matches, and the D/L method comes into play, we felt that it would be frustrating for the user to have their games interrupted by rain. Weather conditions play a big part in the game: over the course of a match they influence so many factors exactly as you would expect in real life. Will weather conditions play a part within the game and is the Duckworth Lewis method implemented? Timing is everything and judging the bowler’s likely pace of a ball is crucial to your batsman keeping his wicket intact.

When batting will the player notice a difference between facing a fast bowler such as Brett Lee and a medium fast bowler such as Jacob Oram?ĭefinitely. Grace would have preferred that the umpire use it to make his decisions all the more accurate.

Within the latest video it shows a classic match between Australia and England played in the 1880s and a run-out is referred to the third-umpire. In addition there are completely different sets of batting animations for batsmen of varying abilities: so where a top batsman will elegantly wield the bat, the worst player in the world will swing it like a tree-trunk. not being as good a batsman as a top order player?Ībsolutely each individual batsman has stats provided by Wisden and his abilities with the bat are affected accordingly. Will tail-enders act like tail-enders, i.e. The game does indeed feature day/night matches, playing under floodlights once the light gets dim. However, there is an editor in-game which allows the user to change all the spoofs to whatever he or she so desires (including the correct name). Exhibition matches and custom tournaments use spoof names, as in the case of Martin becoming Morton. The ICC areas of the game are fully licensed with correct heads and names.
