Cricket Captain 2020 Bug Reports

[CardboardBox]

I wouldn't call it a bug but I don't no where to mention it and is the main thing that annoys me when playing. The bowling choices of the AI follow clear patterns that don't make much sense and very rarely share the bowling duties fairly evenly. If they have selected 3 seamers, the two main ones often bowl far too many overs with the third occasionally not bowling at all. I assume this is due to how good the players are in the game, but it seems ridiculous for Zimbabwe to pick Kyle Jarvis and have him bowl only 6 overs in the test (I would also argue that he is one of their better bowlers). The lead spinner also often bowls a heap and if there are two spinners they will bowl almost every over together except for when they eventually get tired or during the first 15 overs of a new ball. The AI also often selects 4 seamers and no spinner on a batting paradise which seems stupid to me. The conditions in different countries should also remain consistent throughout the saves, I can't stand playing in India or Bangladesh with the home side not picking a spinner because the pitch is better for seamers and vice-versa with Ireland or New Zealand having dust bowls.

Also, while I haven't read through the entire thread, I did notice the issue with players having 'not outs' recorded even if they were given out in the match. Paul Stirling was very definitely caught behind in Ireland's test match with Zimbabwe, but his stats read 1 match 1 innings 1 not out in the player statistics.

Edit - I take this back, that comment was made during the innings and now it's ended, the stats are correct in terms of the not out figures, at least on the player's own individual statistics pages.

The Irish players don't have their nationalities underneath their names on their player profiles. The lads who have a county side have that written under their names - for example, Paul Stirling has Northamptonshire underneath his name - but the players who don't have a county just have a blank space there, not even the word Ireland.

For the Pakistan domestic system, the historical records for Sotuhern Punjab go back to the 1930s, even though this team is a brand new team and has no affiliation with the old. Also, for the Pakistan domestic system, I am unable to see T20 historical records, even though a T20 system is now in place

This has been fixed for the latest update. Quite a bit of manual work to update, so took a while to correct.

This issue is fixed in the latest full Steam release. I'm just about to update the demo as well.

Clarkey20 Bit odd, shouldn't be too big. Anyway, I've replied to your PM.

Hi,

This will be a driver issue, either from them being out of date or not supporting shadows.

Press Windows key and R at the same time on your keyboard
Type "dxdiag" (without the quotes) in the box and press enter
When the diagnosis has finished, save it and it will create a text file, please send me a private message with this dxdiag attached.

Hi,

I tried attaching the dxdiag text file into a PM to you but it says it was too large to do :/

Hi,

I bought the PC game this evening but have yet to actually play a game in 3 save attempts. The skip match and everything else works fine but once I click play game And have lost/won the toss and the ‘Initialising the match’ screen appears then the game just crashes. Attached is the screen it crashes on.

Not sure if this has been posted but the AI national teams seem to be picking almost completely new sides each match. So far in 3 tests against South Africa, England have used 28 different players. Only ben stokes has played all 3 matches.

We fixed this in the last update.

Can you confirm the version number in the options menu in-game?

Charles is working on it, we think we've found what the problem is. Will hopefully know more by the end of today.

Thank you.

[Sureshot]

Are you any nearer with a fix for this?

[iOS] All drop down menus in the game appear blank as pictured below. This also includes team names from the top of the screen too. Unrelated note, Tim David should not be eligible for selection for Australia as he played for Singapore in the T20 Word Cup qualifiers last year (as far as I'm aware).

Are you any nearer with a fix for this?

Thanks, I've repeated and passed on to Chris and Andy to fix.
