Dear Developer,
since the new update (13.12.2012) I can't aim my return. Moreover is the gameplay as a counter clearly inferior (slow returning).

[The Potro]

after latest update

sometimes my online matches when i host, we cannot return, whatever we try, the return gets like a safetyshot and lands slowly in middle of the court? cause of this, i have to rehost and then it gets normal again. what is the most natural explanation of this?

if my install is corrupt. can it also effect my opponents online?

[MarkoDeka]

When I want to play with my friend (I host), return is always placed in the middle, no matter which keys (arrows) do i press... what is the problem? sometimes it's not like that, and sometimes it is... i put always the same conditions for host (controls (arcade, simulation), tiredness, mode ...).

What does it depend of?

Only since downloading latest update, when playing online games, I can't put any direction (including up and down) on my serve returns and they just float into the centre of the court. I have changed NOTHING except for having downloaded the new update. What is happening?

[manutoo]

I tried to reproduce that bug, but without success.
It'd be surprising, but by any chance, do you all release the button very early (ie: very slightly before ball impact) ?

Anyway, I found an issue that was making the return of serve aiming too sensitive, and by fixing it, it should likely fix that no-aiming problem...

[Toyo]

I had this issue also before,but only when using the (doublehanded)backhand from Novak Djokovic after saving this player in the world tour list to training list.(and using online)

But changing to onehanded backhand not any problems I think...

Manu?

[MBM]

I definitely don't. I keep the button pressed until it has been hit. I have tried a few matches and it seems to happen in 1 in 3 matches, not all the time anyway

[manutoo]

Toyo,
it sounds normal, as it's likely related to the wingspan of 1H-BH being bigger than the 2H-BH one (all 1H-BHs have the same wingspan, and same for all 2H-BHs) ; so with the 2H-BH, you need more time to position yourself, so you have less time to prepare your strike, so you have more chance to be too late for the game to detect you pressed a button, especially when playing with high Delay ; the aim of the last Builds (95 & 96) is to lower that problem on return of serve (but it can't be totally removed when playing with high Delay).

MBM,
ok, hopefully the fix I just put in Build 96 will also fix that issue, else I'll have no idea what's going on...

[MBM]

thankyou

[NOLE.LUCKY]

It is due to application of very high delays on low pings, for example, 183/200 delay on 150 ms ping. Manutoo you still have not corrected the auto-delay and neither have you provided these noobs any documentation about the delay-ping concept. It's been almost a year since I first complained about this.

[Tristan von Blomberg]

Seems to be fixed.
