International Cricket Captain

[southernswannies]

You mean this one?

Haha yes, that's what I was getting at.

AC2013 kept on giving minor delay after delay on it's Facebook until its inevitable cancelling, just like last year's International Cricket Captain was constantly delayed then eventually cancelled on Mac. Can see it happening again this year.

Still waiting on that Android release

Still waiting on that Android release

Yeah I'm waiting for the handheld release for iPad.

Sounds like the handheld release is the same for Android and IOS and integrated via the programming which is causing the delay. So they should be released the same time but when they appear in their respective stores may differ.

 

[PTizzle]

Please release it on PS3

Glad I'm not the only one! I like to separate my computer for work/fluffing around on the internet and the couch is for gaming, ICC gets in the way far too much at the moment

What price do you think it will be? I got FIFA 14 the day it was released but have long suffered from just using Ultimate Team, Penalty Shootouts and Games of the Week because I didn't wanna spend the $5.49 for the other modes because I wanted to make sure I had enough for Cricket Captain and Football Manager 2014. ($20 Card)

Decided to download it and give it a try

Finished 3rd in the Shield, 3rd in the One Day comp, made the final of the T20 comp only for 7 players to be taken away for International duties for the final...We got thumped

So when's the new ICC coming out? It was out around this time last season. Any news about it?

 

[Underdog]

Just checked the forum, apparently there should be an announcement in the next few days.

The mobile version STILL hasn't been released when it was supposed to be a short time after the PC version last year. Extremely disappointing. I'm hoping this announcement will relate to that.

 

[eth-dog]

Good news. On holidays now and want to get stuck into it

 

[The_Reaper]

Heard it was struggling compared to cricket coach.

Which is disapointing because the match engine is more enjoyable.

 

[Torz]

I heard rumours that the developers had folded.

Still waiting on a new Mac version - stuck with 2011.

One of the staff posted on their forum and said that was wrong.

To be honest I gave up on the last one because of the Farcical match engine in the county championship.

It was impossible (for me or the PC) to bowl sides out. I think all of my top 6 averaged 80+ and none of my bowlers averaged under 30.

My first 10 CC games were something like 1 loss and 9 draws - when all the other non-played matches between the computer teams finished with a result.

The one loss was me declaring in the third innings with two sessions left in the the match and a 240 run lead on a dodgy last day wicket. Oppo were 3/240 chasing it down inside two sessions.

You wanna know how to get them out? look at their weakness and bowl exactly that

Saw a post on their facebook page saying that they have been busy with development and an announcement will be made soon. They have updated the replay engine.

Considering its been developed by uni students, I reckon its a great game. The match engine has been very sound since the beginning and has stood the test of time - compared to games like DBC 14 on bigger budgets where they expect you to fork out $100 for a copy for something riddled with bugs and shocking AI. You don't need fancy graphics for a game of this type. They could have stick figures and it would still be very playable.

Received an email - the new 2014 game has been released. 20% off if you buy directly from the Childish Things website. Obviously no Mac/iPad version, so no play for me

 

[The Speaker]

It's also on Steam.

 

[stormee]

No Ipad version no care really.

 

[Underdog]

Yeah, I don't want to sit at my PC playing games. The iPad version was great. Sadly it was canned for 2014 - very disappointing.

[The_Reaper]

The updates for 2014 look pretty good

 

[The_Reaper]

Managed to beat the Saffers as Zimbabwe in the first test match.

Got walloped in the first ODI though

Are you able to buy the game on a CD. Say like in JB Hi-Fi or something?

 

[eth-dog]

The question I want to ask is the free trial still available?

Nope. Don't think you've been able to for a few iterations now.
