Multiplat Don Bradman Cricket 2017

[Dez!]

Just had a fielder tap one of my shots that was going for 6 back into the field of play.

Very nice touch.

There's a cheat where you can have a famous dad who is a selector, and walk straight into the state side. Just like in real life !! I'll have to get you the code !!

Where did this happen in real life?

Did you ever play district cricket ?? If you did, you wouldn't need to ask !!

Sorry, thought you were going for the Marshes.

Sorry, thought you were going for the Marshes.

Nope, wasn't who I was thinking. Chris Simpson and Ryan Broad spring to mind.

 

[Vaple]

As I hoped, got a JB voucher for xmas and now contemplating braving the Boxing Day sales just to pick this game up.

My eyes don't lie. Do you think the stiffness of movement in a SPORTS game is acceptable in 2016? Stay in your delusional bubble champion.

Like someone else said. The game is enjoyable if you have played it. I really think it's unfair to judge a game on looks without playing it. NBA 2k to this day is still has horrible and unacceptable bugs and flaws in their game but we pay for it every year (along with their money making VC ways to go with).

I never said it was the holy grail of sports games, I know it has flaws. But patches will fix this in the near future, they know they've buggered this one up but they'll fix their errors and the bugs I have no doubt. Think it was a case of trying to get this out before Chrissy.

Find career frustrating as i am a batting all rounder. Bat at 5 barely get a bat in 20/20

Find the timing hard. Even adjusting the sliders doesnt do much

 

[AngryRanga]

I'll be happy with my purchase as long as patch 3:

• Fixes the duplicate player glitch in career mode
• Fixes/introduces stat tracking in career mode
• Fixes crashing when logos are used
• Fixes stamina stats so I don't have to simulate games

So I can start my career mode. If the next patch doesn't come out within a month, and doesn't address those issues, then I've been sitting with a $89 brick that I don't want to play for too long.

 

[ShaunWDT]

Ridiculous how bad your player is at the start of career, can't hit the ball through the infield unless you adjust sliders.

Unless I'm mistaken, the option to choose what kits to wear in a game also seems to have been removed since DBC14? So many things that DBC14 got right are now inexplicably missing/removed.

Man i love this game. Had a solid bowl this morning the realism is great. Edges and nicks through slips. The flight and spin bowling mechanism are unreal. Mlb the show pitching model isn't as good. The batting is good if not to the bowling standard. Still a good batting model. Pulls look stagnate but apart from that top stuff.

You can choose kits before a custom match but not in career.

Looks like casual is the only mode you can. Can't in competitions either. That's gotta be added in a patch surely?

I think I might just go for this, even at 89 and the hit and miss reviews from people.
For those playing on PS4 - how often is L2 required? One of my controllers has a relatively dodgy L2 and I'd like to play with mates if possible.

 

[Flandersss]

Loving it so far on the XB1

L2 is power hit, so fairly often if you bat like me.

I'll just let my mate use that controller then.

 

[SugarShane]

Just spend most of the arvo pissfarting around in the Academy making my local team, getting our logo imported and making our local ground. The ground isn't very accurate but it'll do. Plenty of fun to be had with all that stuff.

 

[SugarShane]

Having my first decent game session now, the game looks and plays pretty well. Once all the logo stuff is fixed up it'll be great.

Noticed though that regardless of selecting both batting and fielding glasses, my player still wears neither on the field.

Love the addition of the tap back button for fielding. Though if I could change one thing about the fielding I'd have triangle be the button to throw to the bowler's end. Makes sense, bottom button for keeper, top for bowler, just like Super International Cricket.

 

[Flandersss]

Played online last night, won 2 out of 3 matches

Made 98 in 5 overs

I don't know what the complaints are for but this game is the shit

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

I'll hit a few nice shots using the L2 power button, then think to myself "ok you've scored 12 off 3 balls, just see out the over".

Next ball, go for another power hit and get caught!!!!

I wasn't a patient batter when I played cricket and I'm the same with this game.

Me every time I try and play a test match in games: "Now bat like it's a real test." 2 overs later, out going for a six.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

I usually last about 15 overs batting in test matches, couldn't picture myself batting 60+ overs, to time consuming.

 

[Hate]

Anyone managed to get the 334 runs achievement yet?
