Don Bradman Cricket 17 reported bugs
Low FPS rate issues
Players report they can’t get more than 10-15 FPS even after turning all the settings to low. Playing in windowed mode doesn’t help either. Here’s how one player describes the issues:
just bought & installed the game and i’m getting 10-15 FPS. I’ve turned all the settings down to low and read through the recommended requirements (which I should meet, easily..). I’ve checked task manager and the game isn’t capping my CPU or RAM or anything like that, so i’m at a bit of a loss.
If you’re having FPS issues, lags and slowdowns while playing, we recommend you to download GameFire 6 Pro (free) . It will focus your computer resources and processes on the game without overclocking your hardware.
Game controller constantly disconnects
Players report their controllers constantly lose connection. This can happen every few seconds or every 2 minutes.

So my game controller loses connection apparently, except its a wired controller and works 100% with every other game.
Its fine in the menus, and I can start a batting or bowling game, then at no fixed time I recieve the message. Controller 7 has disconnected, press Y to reconnect. Sometimes it happens every few seconds, then it can go 2 or 3 minutes before happening again!

Gamers can’t accept friend invitations because as soon as they accept them, the game freezes and hangs. For the time being, the only solution is to restart the game.
These are the most frequent DBC17 issues reported by players. As you can see, the game is pretty stable despite the occasional rare issues that may occur. And the same set of solutions even work for We have encountered an error in Cricket 24.
