Hi Manutoo, I just have one little concern, actually I noticed that before but never said it.
When I play Tom Paulman, I don't see those little arrows where the ball should land when I hit it. Once when I was playing him on TE06, he told me that he sets his 'Preview' that way because he likes it better, but still I found it weird that I don't see the ball, too. I always had my Preview set to 'All'.
I played against him on TE09 also, and that was still the case. My preview is default, All+Danger Zone+Aiming, and I still didn't see where ball should land when I hit it.
Second thing, yesterday I played Blacky several sets, but we had to play through hamachi, because the ping was marching to infinity lol.
