In the past we’d read your comments and a requests and then just chip away at what we can get into the next update. This time we’re going to do things a little differently and tell you the things that are currently on the drawing board and get some ideas about what you’re most keen to see.

  • Save/resume. Don’t bother voting for it. We know you want it; we’re working on it. We want to make sure that any system we put in place can’t be used to cheat and we’re working on making sure that tech is solid.
  • Improved feedback. We’ve plenty of requests for more information about who’s facing and who was just dismissed. We’ll be tackling that and looking at adding bowling stats to the scorecard.

After that, here are some of the things under discussion for the short-to-medium term. What do you want to see the most?

  • Achievements (earn special recognition for your amazing feats on the field)
  • Practice nets (practice batting/bowling, get shot recommendations)
  • Left-handers. Overhaul characters and mechanics to include southpaws.
  • Create custom field layouts (go beyond choosing a pre-set field)
  • Advanced shot control (more ability to loft/ground the ball)
  • Improved character reactions (salutes, celebrations)
  • Revise edges to make caught behind dismissals more realistic

Shoot us your thoughts. Be heard!

Also, we’ve posted patch notes for the update with Apple which makes some quality of game-life bug fixes.

Great to see that the save/resume will be coming – I’m sure a lot more 50 over games will then be played!!

Some other great ideas under consideration here but which to choose??? My order of preference would be as follows:

Achievements
Left Handers
Practice Nets
Advanced Shot Control
Revise edges
Custom field layouts (would also be good to save them so that your favourite ones can be used in other games)
Improved Character reactions

Just my 2 cents! Also looking forward to the next patch to resolve some of the outstanding ‘annoyances’ – good work guys!

Good to hear the patch is on its way and that the “top two” are being worked on.

My selection from the rest of the list would be:

Left Handers
Practice Nets
Achievements
Improved character reactions
Achievements
Create custom field layouts
Revise edges

Thanks again for the game. Really enjoying it – even chasing 190 from 10 overs!!

Thanks for getting the ball rolling. Good feedback, guys.

@davew That’s quite the run target.

Like the suggestions, looking forward to the save and my main desire of the others is custom fields.

Also need a higher level where the opponents agression is in-line with the number of overs, the current highest level is not high enough and is too easy to beat everytime.
