Cricket Captain 2018 Database Feedback

[muzzy]

Can Mohammad Hasnain and muhammed musa be added to the next database update??

Currently they aren’t in the database!

Why are NZ bowlers rated so poorly in the test team .They are ranked 3 stats and behind a lot of teams despite having Boult, Southee and Wagner who are almost always in the top 15 in the world. NZ playing at home should be a very hard team to beat but it doesn't seem that way

Very good question. There is definitely some in built bias in the game as it goes on Pakistan and South Africa churn out one world class bowler after another while other nations persist with battlers.

Even from the beginning the bias is evident. The might of Abbas, Amir and Shadab is too much for other batting lineups.

Fawad Ahmed is 37 years old in the game he's 39 when the game starts, can this be fixed?

[muzzy]

shaheen shah afridi's bowling ability needs an upgrade??

[muzzy]

Can the squads be updated for the 2019 PSL?

Jack Prestwidge should be RMF
Keemo Paul bats too low especially in T20 and OD, he could do a bit of a batting upgrade too
Rashid Khan is a decent bat in the game but should be considered an all rounder and very aggressive
Marcus Stoinis has excelled as an opener in T20

These are less database inclined and more on the gameplay side
How about differences in the ends that bowlers are suited to, or you as captain think. You see at certain grounds certain spinners are better from a specific end due to certain factors such as things like breeze, the slope like at lords et al.
I'd also like to see the wear factor be different at each end as you see in test matches theres normally one end that has bigger foot holes due to the different sort of bowler that has bowled there, ie a fast bowler would make more of an impact on the wicket than a medium pacer.
the one other thing i'd like to see is bowlers heights having an impact on how they bowl and what they bowl, so a bowler short in stature will be more skiddy like sam curran, whereas a bowler like morne morkel will be better at hitting the deck and getting bounce. I think having something like that would help factor in who a captain would pick on certain tours, like someone like curran would be a little redundant in oz, but someone like morkel would thrive on those sorts of decks.

Hi, thanks for the feedback! The update has already gone out now, however of these had been picked up on, I’ve added my comments in bold:

Riley Meredith needs an upgrade and to be RF like I mentioned before.
Yes, this was changed. I complely agree.
Sam Harper needs a bit of an upgrade and aggressive
He has been upgraded, and also moved to aggressive. He’s in awesome form!
Mackenzie Harvey is a t20 opener
This was noted, and changed.
Cameron Green is a bowling all rounder
He was changed to an allrounder. I’d say he’s more a genuine allrounder than a bowling allrounder though, since he bats 4 in grade cricket and sometimes plays solely as a batsman. Interesting stuff.
Tom Curran has been one of the best all rounders in the BBL, needs to be upgraded there
I think his bowling skill is pretty good where it is already. Since he’s used as a bowler mainly in England, where he plays most of his cricket, I think Sureshot decided to leave him as a bowler, however I do believe we’ve upgraded his batting ability.
John Hastings should be retired
We’ve retired him
Daniel Sams needs a bit of an upgrade
He has been upgraded in both batting and bowling, but a slightly larger upgrade to his batting ability

Thanks again for all your feedback and support of the game!

How do I decrypt the database

[muzzy]

Can Shaheen Shah Afridi and jason sangha be given an improved rating in the next database update?? Shaheen is useless in the current database.

Cameron Valente should be RM
Riley Meredith could be RF, he's bowling 145kph in the BBL, is that fast enough?
I mentioned it earlier but Jack Edwards should be an opener as he's starting there the BBL as is Max Bryant so they should be improved a bit.

I dont understand why there isn't a play editor released with the game each year so we can change player abilities to our own liking. It gets frustrating when we have to wait for a database update each time. we needs a player and fixture editor for the 2019 version!

KL Rahul should be part-time 'keeper not full-time. India use him to keep in test matches in game.
