Leave shot...?

02-08-2006, 09:47 PM

Can anyone tell me if there is a leave button in BLIC 07?

Also, is there front foot/ back foot shot selection or will this be done automatically like in the previous BLIC?

There should be I hope. Codies alert again. This is a must feature.

And there will be frontfoot and backfoot selection in the new game.

and when u leave a shot ur confidence shouldnt go down, it should stay the same. But the bowlers confidence go up.

Erm can somone remindl me whether or not batsman's confidence went down when they played and missed, cause I can't remember. Cheers.

The batsmen confidence went down when you either offered no shot at all or played and missed. Because of the lack of the leave shot this was a problem.

Maybe an option to duck should be implemented. I know it was in the original BLC. It adds to the realism and enables batsmen to avoid getting hit by short pitched bowling, especially the tail-enders who couldn't hook/pull very well.

I like the feature that you get hit by a bouncer if the batsman is not good enough but it should happen with balls under 80mph never mind 50mph!

In the press release the shots looked pretty much the same as the last edition of Brian Lara, this can be a great idea if they sort out the outfield pace, edges and add more animations instead of replacing old ones!

And another loosely related annoyance is when a bouncer is bowled it hits the batsman on the upper body and he hops as if it has hit his toe
