Hey Manuto, i would like to ask you few questions. Questions could be complicated:) Hope you can understand me and give clear answers on this.
As far as i understand and know for the Normal shot and acceleration when you hit with pressing down, you will hit with little bit more top spin and for pressing up stroke will be bit more flat
What about for Top spin strike? I configured 1 button for Top spin strike. Also tried with normal strike, (normal strike down would be Top spin)
I practised a lot what is the difference between them. So basically my question here is with 1 button for Top spin strike when i hit with pressing down will i get more top spin on the ball than hitting with normal strike down?
Also what are the ball speeds on this? When you configure top spin strike as normal strike down will you hit with little bit less spin and bit faster comparing to 1 button for Top spin strike hitting with pressing down?




What is the difference between Any - No direction option for strikes? When you choose No direction it will be always stable no more spin or flat for pressing up and down as far as i understand.
So if i configure for Top spin strike as a 1 button and with No direction will ı get little bit less spin compared to any direction with pressing down? I practised a lot and didn't see much difference for top spin strike between.
According to your answers i will either configure top spin as different button or inside the normal strike with pressing down.
After i practised and tested i think there are no much difference. Just a little bit maybe for top spin, But i like to play with top spin and specially for clay i will probably configure as different button

Lastly what is the exactly number for max speed on forehand and backhand i read your dev blog and enjoyed was usefull. What are the exact max possible numbers. When i change my power lets say from 93 to 97 lets say i don't see almost any difference in the game just maybe little bit. So i'm curious what are the max numbers for both i hit max 157kmh on the forehand(don't think i can repeat that:)) for backhand 132 or 133 but i use max top spin

I will be glad if you answer this thanks in advance!

Hello,

1) Any/No direction is just about the detection of the selected strike ; it'll change soon, and get more simple to assign your strike ; it doesn't change the result of the topspin strike

2) The advantage of having the normal strike on B1 and the topspin strike on B1+down (or anything similar) is to be able to dose the amount of spin you put in the strike ; if you always go for the max spin, then you don't have to worry about that (and you still can dose with 2 different buttons, but it's significantly harder)

3) I don't know the max speed ; they depend on a long list of parameters ; it's 182 km/h by the physics engine, which can happen only on the forehand side when doing a shoulder acceleration.

Okey, thanks for the reply. Any/No direction changes the Normal strike and Acceleration yes? or just same doesnt matter.

"no direction" = no up nor down
"any" = can be up, can be down, can be no nor down, but it has less priority than "up" or "down", so you can assign another strike on the "up" or "down"
