Cricket 07 patches

[::Richo::]

for those who have cricket 07 on pc heres a place to recommend patches and rate them.

The IPL patch is a bit disapponting, theyve replaced the Aussie State Teams with the IPL teams so theres no aussie season, the teams are stuffed a bit but seem to work in the game so i dont no, its ok but itll be better wen then do a new version or they put out a cricket game with the ipl on it.

From fist looks I think its seems good The replacement of State teams doesnt matter, you should have your files backed up so its easy to switch between modes.

Just gotta add in the bat files so I dont get errors. Also my lineups seem to be correct. Just gotta add in the bat files so I dont get errors when I try to play...

[nickmclachlan]

you said that twice,

but how long will it take for this next patch

and who can i get the game off so i can get the crack?

[dle rulez]

I just played half a game (it crashed, ha, stupid bat files) with Australia vs Sri Lanka, and either I was having a bad day with timing or its nearly impossible to hit 6s now I think I just need some more practice. The shot variation is superb though, spider graphs look much more realistic

[nickmclachlan]

it should be harderr to hit sixes,
in one dayers there were more sixes than fours occuring,

Bloody hell, there I was happily playing the first game of an IPL season, thinking that I had finally installed the whole patch correctly when, with Deccan needing only about 30 runs to win, the game crashes..... And doesn't even give a reason for the crash ie there was no error message. Im gonna give it one more try and if it doesn't work its likely that I'm going to give up on it

[nickmclachlan]

just save more often...

[TC Ink]

True, but it is quite annoying and shouldn't happen!

[nickmclachlan]

i agree, but you said there'll be a bug fixed version coming out,

so just keep playing until it comes out!

[::Richo::]

the timing is a bit harder, man give up on the ipl patch it aint worth it

[nickmclachlan]

why not?

[TC Ink]

Yay finished a match!! Deccan beat Punjab ;D

[nickmclachlan]

thats the stuff

is it good quality?

The shot adjustments are good, makes tests more fun. You can actually block one into a gap and take a quick single. I'm trying to build a big innings with Australia in a test on 5 star. Got to about 1/100 the other day, then lost Matty Hayden. Started to rebuild with Clarke then there was some severe lag after lunch which saw my block key failing to work and Clarke getting clean bowled. This and the fact the Phil Jaques was bowled by a delivery that went passed the stumps then in mid air jagged back from behind and bowled him really piss me off.

I can't believe the bugs that EA let creep into their cricket games. Since there wasn't a Cricket 08, I am hoping that they are working on a big improvement for the next game.

Just to chuck this one in here, I was checking out EA Sports on wiki and down the bottom it had a list of franchise games coming out for 09 e.g. FIFA 09, any way the last game on the list was Cricket 09, Now since this is only on Wiki i wasn't completely convinced so i googled Cricket 09 and checked out a few forum's and the general gist of them all was that whilst there is no official comformation EA will be bringing out a new cricket game at somepoint in the not to distant future. Who's knows if this is true or just rumors but if they do bring out a new game i'll be checking it out, hopefully it will be much better than 07.

[TC Ink]

Well I'll play your game before I go near it.

EA have sucked so far... Don't really want to go wasting money on another one of their half assed efforts.

There are heaps of other cricket game projects around, should keep an eye on them.
