Why when we are choosing a existing player.. we can't have the stats already made ? Like we start with him from the bottom ..

I second this! I've commented that before and I still think that would be a great addition for the game. Sometimes you don't want to start a career all the way from the bottom and just play for a while with an already good player. Plus, it would help a lot of people like me who don't have much time to play. Hope you can add it Manu!

Hey Manutoo,

The backhand issue for me is still maybe something to work on but I've noticed it's heavily biased towards service returns which I think needs a lot of tweaking as other people have said. Doubles makes for an interesting time against an opponent that doesn't serve above 105 but can find every single angle known to man haha.

I wanted to talk about the effect of stress though, is this a flat negative penalty against all stats? I feel it's harsh when your player's mental attributes have low potential from juniors and so from every 4th round onwards you have a fixed amount of stress. I feel like that stress has too great and impact on Groundstroke power, Serve Power and running speed and isn't as realistic as it should be. I think it should definitely have an impact on groundstroke and service consistency and lateral turning even if the impact I feel is maybe to profound. An example is going from 3rd round to 4th round and being able to serve an average of 115+ first serves and then this dropping down to barely 100-110 average because of stress.

Thanks!

megadam,
I checked and actually I had forgotten to change the stress limits for the Junior tournaments ! So for the next update, they'll be divided by a bit more than 2.
Each skill can be scaled down separately. So I also lowered a bit the penalty on the FH, BH & Serve powers.

You're the best dude! Thanks for clarifying and updating as always
