Easy volleys go errors Wtf!

Postby E=mc2 » 15 Oct 2013, 09:16

Well i am a terrific volleyer in this game but I find this particular one about this game is silly---->when my opponent hits a drop shot and I have all the time in the world to hit an easy volley as i was already at the net, but my player moves abnormally and hits the ball to the net.WTF!!! In fact that should be a sitter but it ended so weird lol. I mean it's really not realistic and I also had enough time to move back with auto position and hit a perfect drive volley but the game play has wrong autopositioning at the net on slow incoming balls especially on the drop shots....so I want manutoo to change this cuz it's just sad to see my player do errors on such easy balls :roll:

yes Manu, i confirm it !!

When the opponent replies a dropshot, the volleyer misses the shot 9/10 on net . The ball goes down the net !

I will try to find a dmo

A silly trick which you could avoid by step back and take drop shot not as volley.

Kind regards,
Heinrich.

In order to avoid errors try to move forward(means completly at net) or u can step back and hit a shot from there.but most of the cases we didnt try to move our player because we think that our player auto-positioned himself ,which he dont. but it does not mean that this shot cant be played .Just keep your eyes open and focused ;)

@Heinrich von Westphalen and Kuga
I am actually pretty good at net....but the shot I am talking about is not easy to hit even with practice(i am volleyer since 2years).....even if u move back and take the dropshot to hit the volley, sometimes u hit a shot too early when i press the hit button. So i need to wait for the right time to hit the shot...And with it being a dropshot, its very less time to know when to hit the button...Its quite annoying that because i know that's the easiest shot in real tennis(given the time i had to it because i was already at the net lol) but it is damn difficult to do in this game.
Also if my game is about volleying I have to win those crucial points(especially those slow incoming dropshots) and its quite annoying if I lose the point because of some bug in the game :annoyed:

E=mc2,
choose "Recordings : Buffered", it won't create any lag as it'll access the hard disk only at end of each point.

I usually do this all the time when my opponent hits an unrealistic drop shot. I run to the net with just enough time to hit a cross court angle shot. The key is to find the right balance. You have to be close to the net to execute but you can't be that close or you'll make an error. If your opponent is a fast retriever he will still get his racket on the ball so you just need to hit a volley to the opposite side or a drop volley. I find that 80% of the time it works even though sometimes I still get passed.

I think what he, E=mc2 was talking about the easiness of the shot. I think the shot is very easy to do in real life. Even without proper balance you have to hit it with lot of ease because i think its really easy to hit a dropshot when u are already at net lol. That was first shot i(generally all tennis players) start to practice when i was a kid, to play real life-tennis. However in the game, it's damn difficult as he pointed out, the player moves abnormally with auto-position thing :mrgreen: ':D

Few baseliners here are trying to make this topic neglected. I think this shot is one very hard for volleyers and the baseliners say its easy shot because they don't know much. If a player always try volleying, then u can see that this shot is probably as difficult as a backhand smash when u r very close to the net LOL :lol: And baseliners don't dare to stand too closer to the net, so when a dropshot is coming its easier for them because their auto-positioning at net is so small, even if they move they wont go right away to hit the ball and then they can move back as they got enough time and its relatively easy for them to play that shot. But to be honest the volleyers should play that with much ease as they are born to play at net and autopositioning being really fast(it should be for volleyers on all other volley shots) and just when u press hit button the volleyer jumps to catch the ball, in fact he has all the time to stop from jumping and simply run behind and hit the ball. The player moves weirdly to end up hitting the ball to the net :whistle:
