They are a tad small.

But still... filters!!!

...and Aus domestic.

[DeadlyVenom]

looks good. Nice work guys.

[Darkconquerer]

It is quite late here, so I'm sure I'm missing something - but I don't see the images?

Huh, they've just appeared. No worries

[IndiaWarrior]

Hey Sureshot,is it going to be released before 13th june.

[Sureshot]

Yes, it will be within a few days. Just tying up a few loose ends and making sure everything is nice and solid, when it's good to go, it's all yours!

I'd be surprised if we've not got it out before the weekend is over.

Is IPL der?

[IndiaWarrior]

The game looks to have Australian domestic league teams which are playable online.But can u confirm if Indian Premier league will be there or not.

[Chasjs]

I doubt IPL will be in the game.

Managed to throw in a final database today which was nice as it means Ian Butler will be in the Gloucs squad.

Are there changes for how many overseas players can be in an English domestic squad? Or just for 20-20? As James Franklin is also an overseas player and in the Gloucs squad.

[IndiaWarrior]

It would be nice to see the screenshot of highlight of any ball bowled.

Looking very nice indeed, Sureshot. No major tweaking of the general look of the in-game interface, which is good in my opinion, apart from that strike rate column which looks good. The sorting bit looks the most useful, presuming all those options will be available when selecting an international squad? If not, it would be a bit useless, really.

Good to have the Australian domestic comps, just hope you aren't going to be pushing through the release too early, with the date being moved forward. (Opposite of last year, though I'm happy that enough time is taken to make the game good!)

[Sureshot]

Unfortunately the IPL is not. Aussie Domestic got the nod ahead of it and it is a superb game mode.

We have the ones that are apart of the Australia and England domestic competitions. Which are quite exciting, particularly with the new changes we have in England, which have been fully replicated in 2010 version.

Have a look at the changes we've made to the English system. We've improved the AI in contracts aswell.



Imager - We've focused on gameplay I've said as such for the last few months, the interface has a few tweaks with graphics, but it's not been our primary goal to overhaul it, though we have wanted to work on it, I think the changes we have made have been the right ones and you'll see why in the next few days.

Career strike rates and in-match strike rates are good additions. The latter is really useful and the former is something we've wanted to include for a while but didn't get recorded as exclusively as it has been in the last few years. There are some gaps with the older players.

The release hasn't been rushed, though any release will always be busy, last year was hectic due to what happened with Empire.

The filters work in selection screens.

Also have the right mouse button functionality back, something I'm really chuffed with. A little thing (it got lost during our transition to 3D in 07) but makes moving between menus better.

Edit: For those of you who had the graphics flickering problem last year. We've re-designed how the Ball-tracker works and we've had no problems testing on our machines. On the machine I had a problem with 09 and flickering I've also noticed it's a bit smoother. So you might all see slight overall performance gains.

[zeduck]

Ah.. and the latest screenshot answers my question. 20-20 only overseas players!

[Imager36]

Yeah, and reserve only overseas, which I presume players like Rana will be for Sussex. Do the normal overseas players stay for the T20 as well? I'd presume so, but I may as well check.

[IndiaWarrior]

It looks not much different to ICC 2009.
