ive played this beautiful game for maybe 3 years now with 100% topspin and have basically beaten everybody.

but with this latest update 1.0e i get very very little topspin and i have only played on clay so far, cant imagine other surfaces...i now get on the defense and cannot attack with topspin.

so, my question is, can you fix back real topspin like in 1.0d?

Hello,

I didn't change the topspin in v1.0e and I just checked and it seems to be working normally.
Maybe you forgot to set your style to Defender ?

The only tiny change in v1.0e is that a Defender with 100% topspin skill has very slightly longer ball on B1+down strike.

no, ive always played with power baseliner. i can tell you, there is something different with this version, i cant get the ball higher like i used to. maybe you have made it easier to return high balls?

Only the change in Build 84, already a while ago, which gave a ~5km/h bonus on early prepared acceleration at shoulder height.

btw, did test defender for the first time, didnt notice any difference to power baseliner...

Yes topspin seems pretty much useless now, even on red clay. I lost 6-0 to a PB because as I defended, the topspin shots kept landing short and short. Which is quite realistic, as there is no one at the top of the game (in reality, not TE) who does not hit hard consistently and only use topspin.

yes, finally someone who understands me...

my problem isnt the short balls, it is that i cant get the ball upp high consistently... if i hit maybe 5topspin, only 2 of them get much topspin on them...

You have to center the ball well in your racket to put a lot of spin in the ball and make it not short.

its the running forehands thats wrong, no topspin on running forehands
