First off I have a back ground playing with pro tennis players and coaches I was a semi pro so plz hear me out I’ll be giving positives first then negatives last The positive 1. If you have played virtual tennis from sega the game is almost designed the exact same except for ( the volleys) 2. In my career mode you have tons of different ways to design your character and racket. u really get the tennis career experience and feel what it’s like to get through the rankings 3.they show u earn the trophies / have a short ceremony and press conferences but the constantly ask the same generic question But sadly that’s all I can say positively The negatives 1. the ai is broken in this game they don’t really make errors all that much and because of it if u get into a good rally u will at some point because if u time it wrong once u will hit a error , and it sounds fine right? Trust me it’s not , u will typically make 2.5-5 times more error then the ai , in which that’s really how u would only loose I typically have 2-4 times the winners of cpu and the cpu will on when because of the errors u create , which isn’t fair cause they don’t create any themselves , also to add to the injury the stamina for the ai is broken so many times u will have them run more then u by maybe 10mm or 30mm and there stamina bar hasn’t moved at all or if it does by the next point there stamina is back to normal where your half way and Iv still had this problem even with my carrer mode character fully built up 2.there’s not really any diversity in your character play, you can’t add more spin to the ball be more of a heavy topspin player or serve and volley, your character so your gameplay is basically the same 3.there are training games that help u build your stats, where you aim the ball and get points and u half to reach a certain goal , but the problem with it is it get very very very tedious to the point u start to get annoyed it’s designed very poorly and in the beginning it’s fine but after doing it one to a few times it gets beyond tedious 4.the volleys in the game are beyond terrible I struggle to even hit them , the reaction time u half to have is crazy and even when I had good volley stats I still very strongly struggled to the point I try my hardest to avoid going to the net and 5. The game glitches are extreme sometimes your character runs into the ball , or just stops moving, or it glitches and doesn’t move then u move out of nowhere , or if u do a drop shot either the ai won’t be able to hit it even when there able to so u get free points a lot , or they do a drop shot on u and your character gives up on it when u can make it 6. The challenges omg where do I start 99.9% of the time you will always be wrong no matter what out of the hundreds of matches Iv played , iv only got it right like 10 times it just feels very pointless to have if your wrong almost 100% of the time In conclusion I don’t recommend anyone play this game , if u want a tennis game play tennis world tour 1 It lacks in character creation but not as bad as u would think tons of variety , the graphics aren’t better then ao tennis but there not miles apart either , also u can feel the difference in your character when u play such as having more top spin or power or batter volleys and you have better volley mechanics in tennis world tour
