What is that???????????

[muhammad saad]

:mad:

Overs distribution is simply crap I put 3 bowlers and an potential great allrounder in my side and just look at the number of overs AI has given him.

Once again I insist that overs probability distribution should be available to players before skipping the match (as I discussed in other thread which I cannt find now)

That is the case of every match and just simply not acceptable result ,some thing should be done about it fast.

Chris plz reply to this.

[muhammad saad]

This is another case G Aston is my allrounder and he also not getting many overs.

The poor AI with regards to bowler allocation and distribution has already been mentioned as something that should be recoded.

Chris plz reply can it be fixed in upcoming patch???

[Chris Child]

I'll look into this. There are sometimes cases that look odd, but are not when you look at the match situation. If the innings started at the end of a day and then there were a few rain delays, then AI would have selected the two best bowlers when they are fresh after each delay. In general the AI does a decent job of this, but you might have highlighted an issues with youth bowlers. The AI tries to pick the best bowlers so it will not always give inexperienced bowlers the overs they need to gain experience (players don't reach full strength until they are experienced).

My both allrounders are over 27 and have played over 70 FC games and one of them has a salary of 87k. So its not like an experience issue ,the thing is when we play county mode there is not a single allrounder in the circuit which can be picked for England becuz the AI dont let him bowl enuf to get experience and as result lots of allrounders having 100 FC games under their belt but only 120-130 wkts which is odd and unrealistic. Can we allocate or distribute the probability of overs to our bowlers in future??? Plz tell me it isnt hard to implement.

For SA Morne Morkel gets 5 overs a game and Kallis gets 20 it should be the other way rounf really Chris you need to fix it

Just allow us to set the probability/percentage of distribution of overs it will be much easier than coding.

[muhammad saad]

This is the best Eng allrounder in my game and just look at the number wkts compare to the matches he played ,Also look at his test match bowling figures.
His salary is 89K so this means he is around one of the best that game can generate.

[muhammad saad]

so Chris? your reply?:)

[aus5892]

Give him time to reply, but if you're not happy with the AI then you shouldn't skip games.

It is impossible to play this game without skipping

Many of us don't skip games.

[Sureshot]

I'd say it is impossible to play the game whilst skipping matches.

Out of curiosity, why do you skip games? Don't like playing against the smaller teams?

[Nivoleum]

I'll only ever skip in say a 7 match ODI series, if say I've already won 5 or 6 and got bored of playing ODI's.

Never in Tests though.

[muhammad saad]

I am fast kind of person I never play single match in entire season and I play atleast 8-10 season a day. Thats why it is very important for me to have perfect stats.

[Agent47]

Well there is one point in playing a seven match ODI series after you have won the first four games. You can give your regens or your younger players a chance in the international side. I always play all my matches because of this fact. In a three test series, you give your regens a match after you win your first 2 games. This is how i replace my pace bowlers in all ICC games. And sometimes my batsmen who are getting old. I almost never feel that my best player is retiring. The regens just slide into place so well in my team when i use this method.

Where's the fun in that? Wouldn't you get like bottom in rankings because of the AI's tendancy to lose more times than win?

[ratsdm]

Wow Muhammed, what a useless way to play the game, you cannot get much out of it. And i am not sure why the developers should be catering to your needs when only 1% of players would be as "fast" as you!!!

Yes, there are some AI issues but if you simulate every game ever then i am not sure you will ever get out of it what you want.

Every one has different tastes so you cannt blame my playing style. But I cannot play every team around me right? It is the AI that controls them and me trust that AI is not doing a right job.

[Themer]

I really can't see the point of playing in that way. Its the same as seeing random scorecards flash before your face.
