The future of ITST characters

[Mack2300]

the 40/90 rule is a good thing
the bad thing about it is players with 4 attributes on 90
that´s so far away from tennis and it´s boring
because of guys with these stats i´m losing the fun of the game and ITST more and more...

don't worry, I am going to change my character. I guess having 90 on 4 attributes is a cop out but that is kind of balanced out by having a very weak return

well it´s not only you, there are a lot of guys on ITST and world tour (xbox live or PSN) that never played tennis before and don´t have any idea of tactics and how to mix their game.
sometimes i feel i´m playin´ a shooter and not a tennis game
i really enjoyed the match i had against Rob ITST, well i lost it, but it was great... he mixed his game very good
matches like yesterday don´t make any fun... it was all about "how long can i survive" and "can i win a game?"
just because it´s all about surviving i never have the chance to try something out because i´m too busy surving and not loosing without any game... well it´s just frustrating sometimes
but you know Mack, i didn´t say any bad word against you, if you like it that way and if you´re successful with it....

I support 40/90 but this

Everyone got 70 would be fine.

is also good solution.

to be honest, i'm a little sceptic about overall 70 rule. why? because it favours too much 2 things: risk & risk return.

if you serve with 70 serve and 70 power, you can outwide all the serves you want but a good returner will kick your *** 3 times on 4 with a perfect risk returm. it's damn too slow

This is also true


So, in the end, i dont know what to support

I don't agree about Mack.

He is extremely annoying player, but that is not because of his serve, in fact it is one of his weaknesses (that is getting better at the moment) and not because of his power (even thou he has plenty now) but rather because of his consistency, movement, and anticipation. He may not be the best strategist out there, he may not be able to place the ball very well, but in these 3 I mention above he is got to be one of the best if not the best on ITST. Humburgerboy is right there with him on these.

Consistency + Movement + Anticipation = great position for any shot, therefore it feels like he is overpowering you. But he is not doing it with extreme risking or extreme power.
