Don Bradman Cricket 17

Very happy with the actual manual.
Not so sure on the realism though, just got beat by Australia

Has everyone downloaded the teams from the crickey academy?

 

[Arnold]

Crickey lol

I'm about to fire it up to do the update then will play tonight when the kid is asleep.

Yes good question? The "get best" is based off the PC mods I presume that have been working on academy for months?

 

[Arnold]

It's on it's way...

 

[Eelementary]

I haven't played. Just read the manual I found it an exciting addition as I found ones and twos were a bit random at times.

Shame it doesn't seem to do anything.

I'm hoping that it's hard because my player is 18 and not especially skilled; maybe as his skill progresses, it'll be easier.

Did you have to start your career at local level?????

49 is very good for your first go.

Did you try slogging it lol????

I did try the slog, and often mistimed the ball lol.

I'm enjoying it, but finding it harder than the previous game.

It's still a fine game, though.

 

[natheel]

Batting is hard it's all about timing. I can never get it perfect especially my placement

 

[Arnold]

Where is the "get best" option in ps4? Listed in the book but not In The game menu and it didn't download when first opened as the academy was down.

 

[Arnold]

don't worry found it. Another error in the manual to go along with the 4 unrequired hyphens.

 

[Arnold]

Just realised I'm not into it.

Not impressed by it at all.

Buggy, laggy and start a test match and the opposition opens with a spinner - realism gone.

Not to mention I had to restart it due to a blue screen error twice.

I can't talk myself into keeping this one. It's going back.

You must have a faulty one unfortunately.

Surely it can't be that bad.

I'm getting mine next week.

I'm really enjoying the 14 version still and just scored 275 in a shield game.

Just my opinion. But I'm not likely to put up with it if it's not good as I don't have much game time and when I do I want to enjoy it.

The commentary isn't fluid and it's noticable that it's pasted together.

The lag is obvious and the download of teams was messy also.

It's visually great but it's not enough.

 

[Arnold]

Getting smashed in the big ant forums for the bugs.

Another Ross fail.

 

[natheel]

Big ant always bring out a patch after release of their games to fix the little bugs. It's just how it is and what to expect I knew this would be the case

 

[Arnold]

Yeah I will let everyone else make their own decision. Mine will be 100 back to me tomorrow.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

I bought it. But I'll only play every 2nd or 3rd weekend as I've been told to monitor my PS usage, so I'm resting.

 

[Iafeta]

Who told you that? Lady friend? That's grounds for complete separation bro.

That's a shame.

I haven't experienced any of those issues you mentioned.

There are a few silly bugs (for instance, I bowled a top spinner, the batsman hit it straight past my bowler and into the path of a fielder - who then stood by, motionless, and watched the ball go past him for 4 runs), but I haven't had any major issues, myself.

Had you downloaded any teams?

Were you playing as Pakistan with bribe mode on?
