Virtual Reality CricketGenre: SportsDeveloper:Karl Binder, David NestorukPublisher:stickeeRelease Date: 7 Feb, 2018 Balls! Virtual Reality Cricket Download For Pc Bowling is far too fast to enjoy this game.. I am concerned that the ball speed issue has been mentioned on numurous reviews {some quitre a few months old}, yet no attempt has been made to rectify it. I love cricket games, but the speed is just too fast. The game looks great, but is un playable for me in its current state.. Putting it blatantly, some people expect lifelike and realistic VR cricket to practice. That would either take a lot of time and a dedicated developer or the next generation of VR headsets. Yes, we are in the first generation of VR, It's new(ish) tech, and expensive. None of the cricket games I have played (I've only played 2) have been extremely realistic, this looks like leatherface was every person on the pitch. But the reason most games are popular aren't graphics, some games have horrible graphics but are really popular. It's the gameplay, which is where this game really shines. Multiple game modes, decent ball movement at random which is hard to do without making the ball do the same thing over and over again. If you just want to hit a ball in VR get Cricket VR it's free. If you want to play cricket in VR, get this. It has test match, 1 day, T20, 5 overs, street cricket T20, net practice (indoor and outdoor), just bating without a run target or wicket limit and lots of real life scenarios. The UI is really good to use, I like the fact that it is a locker room for the menu and the ready system is using your bat, wheras in VR cricket you have to press the trigger which can lead to two balls coming out at a time getting rid of your score.The only things to improve on are where the ball lands to a left handed batter and minor improvements to animations if possible.Additions to the game I would like are a tutorial showing you the differnt controls and shots, having a person on the PC\/laptop bowling against the batter, customisation to the bats instead of the boring one, teams' kit you're up against and different stadium, the field positions to change over by over, and a tournament\/league to play in.Overall a good game and would reccomend if you have a VR headset and like cricket.. Rubbish...Not worth the money. Should be around \u00a31.50.. I have bought a number of cricket games as I love the game and have played it for over 20 years. However, none of the game are yet at the stage where they can be regarded as being great. Having said that, I would thing Balls! probably needs to do the least amount to make it a fully fledge cricket game.The biggest issue with all the cricket games are the speed of the ball and the resultant impact with the bat. Unfortuantely, Balls! is the least realistic. The leg spinner is bowling bouncers. The speed at which the fast bowler delivers is just a tad below the speed of light I would think. And the way the ball flies off despite me just blocking is totally unrealistic. The only playable option in this game is to go into the practice nets and put on slow bowling to have some realistic fun. Otherwise the game is unplayable and frustrating. Recommendations to make the game great:1. Change the bowling speeds. This is not sticks cricket and if that is what you are emulating then it is a waste given how great this could be. I think the best way of resolving this issue is to provide an ingame option to change teh speed of the ball as a level. From maybe 10 to 100. When you change the speed it should change the speed of all the different styles by that margin across the board. For example, if I change the speed to 80% of what is the fastest then all other bowling styles should also be adjusted by 20%.2. The way the ball comes off the bat is not realistic. This may be resolved somewhat when the speed of the ball is changed but I doubt it. The ball flies off no matter if you are blocking or taking a swing. The game should be taking into consideration the speed of the ball, the speed of the bat swing, the angle at which impact is made between the bat and the ball and the timing of that impact. For example, if I am blocking and the ball hits the middle of the bat, it shouldnt go flying off, it should maybe dribble 3-5 meteres infront of the bat. And when I am blocking but it hits the edge, it is reasonable that it might fly a certain distance but not for a six or 100 meters in the air everytime.3. provide more options to the player. Allow uys to pick what kind of bolwers we want to play a match against. Providing this option right now will mean you will have more time to work on the other issues mentioned above. It will mean the game will become playable right now with the use of slow bowlers.. Putting it blatantly, some people expect lifelike and realistic VR cricket to practice.
