Hello again Manu,
During hundreds of hours of playing the World Tour, always on Pro-10, these two have bothered me the most.
1. Doubles is way too easy. If I remember correctly, I have never lost a single doubles match yet. My players have won every doubles tournament and one of them has a record of 302 wins and no losses. Even Incredible-10 wasn't any different. It's the AI. You just focus on returning the ball safely and the CPUs miss too many times. Sending the ball in the middle wins most of the time, especially when close to the net. You can even try crazy long volleys like Wii Tennis but usually the CPU will miss before long. Actually I reluctantly play doubles for the extra experience points. Otherwise my players would really have a hard time keeping up. So it feels like a drag sometimes since I know for sure that I'll win the match and have to spend much more time in doubles than singles, the reason I'm playing the World Tour. Doubles should be much more challenging and it would be wonderful.
2. Skills still drop fast even after Build 69. Actually I don't see any changes. My No. 1 ranked player still barely maintains his better skills close to 80 while there are a lot of CPU players, most of whose skills are close to 100. So he almost always has to be the underdog in the big tournaments. I had a test run using "mtkil", singles only and aiming for the big ones with 2 or 3 weeks of rest between. Even if you win every single match, your average skills fluctuate around 80. I know I can set DimPro to 0.9987 or something but I'd just like your opinion on this. I'm inclined to stick to the vanilla because I know you carefully designed it for realistic gameplay. I myself think it's okay that the average skills stay around 90 or more if the player is on a crazy, undefeated run.
Thank you very much!
