      OR are you asking what "X" does in Tiebreak game? If so, that's a flat shot on Playstation 5 controller.

    i agree for the most part. It was previously unplayable, it has definitely gotten better but some big issues still remain... the flow and the physics still seem the biggest problem. on the plus side, flat shots are actually able to get over the net, players can actually get top spin bounce shots and the movement has improved...overall, lots of work still to do to make it FEEL like a real tennis game, but at least it's playable now. (which is ridiculous to say for a game that cost me $100 CAD at launch)

    It's beyond me how games like tennis elbow with a single developer can make a game so far ahead of a studio with a huge team and budget. How are the ball physics this bad? Only conclusion is they don't actually care about the game and just want to release a game that casuals can pick up and play and have an easy game.

    You are right. The most frustrating part of gameplay is that AI is still not able to deal with drop shots and short balls, even on Expert level. Its successful rate is literally 1-2 out of 10. So, when you play just drop shots a short balls you will easily win every match. These issues remain from the start of Early Access so I'm not sure whether they're capable to solve it. Imo this is the more complex problem of core game engine so therefore serve, return and playing drop shots/short balls can not be fixed.

    If they fix these things about gameplay tiebreak will worth playing
    1. Perhaps the biggest problem to make this game look like a simulation and not an arcade is serving , serve is not any advantage in the game , i win a lot of more games when i receive the serve, serve must be big advantage especially if it is player like (hurkacz , shelton , fritz , zverev ...)
    2. Second problem is when i serve my player immediately goes in front of service line , when other player return deep service my player literally returns the ball with some very strange animation , and thats advantage for receiver not server.
    3. Playstlyes of players are the same , literaly nobody goes to the net, nobody make dropshots all player have same playstyle in real gameplay
    4. When i edit player I can't put the cap upside down like the dimitrov , rune etc
    5. Game crashes offline from no reason , it happened most times on match points , throw out the error and return me to the home page of the playstation
    6. Try to add all players in top 30 like Musetti , Bublik, Baez etc
    7. Ball in ralies is not natural is too fast , try to slow down the ball
    8. All fields have same speed. Hard , Grass and Clay is not the same in real life. Clay is much slower.
    This game have big potential , just keep working guys. Cheers all the best

    There has been a further update last night fixing the speed on hard and expert,players like Zverev and Taylor Fritz now topspin a lot more on return of serve and ralllies even slicing for serve returns,before they were hitting all flat shots going into the net. The cpu is not hitting missile serve returns all the time like before also. This is the first time i can honestly say that Tiebreak feels better than AO2. The latest update patch is 25th September.

    I feel like the physics just feel... off. The ball has no tangible weight to it, generating pace on the ball looks somewhat unsatisfying.

This game looks like the physics need a lot of tweaking... but hey, I like that they are actively working on it, best of luck to them!

      Well, for PES like gameplay experience with a good career, I think *TE4* is the only really good option combining both aspects.
      *Tiebreak & AO Tennis 2* are arcade-ish games, so if you are into deep tennis gameplay (like PES is for football), then I don't think you will enjoy them after first few hours.
      *Full Ace* is the equivalent of *PES 2021 FUMA* *gameplay* for tennis games, but the career mode is imo just serviceable.
      While *Tennis Elbow 4* has the best career mode in tennis games hands down (maybe even all sports games with Tennis Elbow Manager 2 enabled?).

  • @flatstuff60
    @flatstuff60 2 місяці тому +4

    I play tennis games to have fun which I clearly can't do with this game right now. The movement choices shouldn't have used tennis world tour format but instead AO 2 format which doesn't have the sprint.
    The difficulty levels for beginners like me are ridiculous... easy is still too damn easy...the CPU player just stands in one spot most of the time. But increasing the level up one, makes the CPU super human again hitting shots right in the corners every time or dropping the ball over the net with great precision and your player being unable to get to it in time.
    I love the content in the game, career mode and tournaments etc. But I can't play any of it because the game is so damn broken.
    I play for fun, not for serious simulation...and TopSpin is a huge letdown but Tiebreak is no better in it's current state.

    It's still unplayable to me. ALL tennis games: STOP locking animation behind pay/playwalls. Clothes fine but you're purposely making your game worse so we have something to play for? Just make your gameplay fun it's not that hard. I personally LOVE TS5's gameplay. Other than missing the high accuracy/high power button, it's almost the same as TS4, which I played the stuffing out of....offline only. I refuse to touch online until someone gets the core gameplay correct bc players are always going to find something to abuse, especially in a sports game. If TS5 had the presentation & players of TB & TB had the tournaments & gameplay of TS5, we might have ourselves a decent game.

    So disappointed in this game. I actually loved AO Tennis 2. It was far from perfect but, in my opinion, it still played well and it wasn't boring. Also the customization was really good. You could start a full tournament with 128 players, choose all your seeds and include any player you want in the tournament. You could then play any of the matches, sim matches or sim a match and then jump in the middle of it to continue. I figured Tiebreak will build on the AO2 model while adding improved game play with better graphics. Right now, the game play and the customization is nowhere close to the AO2.

      Two reasons:
      Returning early (SABR return) gives advantage and works easily in Tiebreak.

      After playing couple of matches today, I think the game is better now than it was before. It's less frustrating and unrealistic to play against the computer.
      But many issues remain virtually unchanged since release (physics, lack of player tendencies, stats don't mean much, serving and returning is bad). Plus the game feels very uninspired and boring to play, at least to me.
      If you're looking for pretty graphics, nice roster and are okay with arcade-ish, barely passable gameplay - you might enjoy it.
      But if you're looking for a realistic and deep tennis game, Tiebreak ain't it.

    Perfect analysis. It's obvious by now that these guys from big ant don't know how to make video games, they've been trying since 2018 with terrible results. Tiebrerak is too fast, unreal and with questionable movements. The more they update, the more damage they do. Also, since day one on ps4, there's lag in the game on night courts and they haven't been able to fix it.

    When I first heard of this game I thought it was cool that they had early access. Then I saw the developer….. oh great AO tennis guys. Two of the most boring tennis games I ever stupidly paid money for.
    I haven’t played this game, nor will I and I get you need to ‘feel’ the game to review but a few key non-starters I can clearly see from your gameplay. Serve is just a rally starter. You have very little control of shot precision (line, mid line, middle, mid line, line left to right and the same up n down). You need to go to net most of the time coz unless you hit a very unrealistic flat winner you end up in endless rallies coz again it looks almost impossible to aim properly. And lastly…. I mean come on. Surely anyone who watches this gameplay…. Man does it look bad. Early access ey, gimme a break.
    So sad that Full Ace and Tennis elbow (both made by ONE guy) will likely never be dethroned coz apparently it’s simply impossible to make a really good tennis game with a budget.
