Top Spin 3 Rule Change - Character Attributes

[ANILTJE]

I played many matches with this setup. There is almost no difference between 100 and 90 just that all styles have more chance to shine then when players use the 100 stats, and you actually have to play smarter
I think it's a huge improvement ,thanks for that.

What is the difference than between 30-100, 40-90 than come on people. I see no difference, mosrt people have 30 stamina and 100 speed, and now it will be 40 stamina and 90 speed, I can't see no difference. But the idea makes it more realistic now. The problem is that there are people they don't listen to this idea. So that makes problems when playing matches.

These are not ideas, these are the new rules if i understood correctly

[picachu211]

Power is irrelevant when you are hitting a passing shot.
I would not call a player with 90 in power a counter-puncher.
And this has nothing to do with racket technology, everyone has the same limit.

[SphonX]

All right. This new rule sounds good.
I'm sure that bring more tennis-like matches and less (crap) power hits, especially in women tournaments.

[AMAZING ZIZOU]

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON THIS IDEA AND MADE THIS POSSIBLE!

THANK YOU ANILIO, AL, CRO, ROB, SLICER, AND ALL THE OTHERS.

[Al]

We're pleased to bring what we think is a positive rule change to our tour.

For those not that happy about it, well we can't please everyone all of the time but we will of course continue to monitor this change.

Al whai did you delet my coment abauth the new rules ..?

[DWARLORDUSSuspended]

pls post it back is harmful

[Yappadappadu]

Played a few matches with my new 40_90 guy, and yeah, what a difference compared to my power guy. Definitely an improvement for those who want hard fought rallies. Damn difficult to hit the usual quick winners.

Dwarlordus,

At my descretion I'll remove any unecessary forum posts....and frankly your post was unecessary.

I've noted a number of posts you've made recently promoting a game we don't host whilst having nothing but negative things to say about Top Spin 3. Your ealier post to this thread was in my opinion an indirect plug for this other game again & overly negative, that's why I removed it.

If you're more interested in another game then that's fine but don't come on here saying that we've changed the rules because the game isn't realistic etc when we're simply responding to our members feedback.

Keep your posts relevant or I will remove them.

You've been warned!

[Alvaro Tarazona]

about time. Although not exactly what most people want it. I think that it is a definitely an improvement.

Hopefully we won't see the 90 * 4 players just like the 100. However, if this does happen all of us that hate 100 players(because they are unrealistic) can actually have a good match.

And, to the post about people growing balls and getting 100 because u can't hit a passing shot against a net player. I would suggest for you to hit the court and learn how to play because u don't need 100 in anything to hit a passing shot. Sounds to me like you are the one that doesn't know how to play and want to just bully people.

TS3 can always be improve, this is just the first step. Hope to have a lot of fun matches from now on.

[Rob ITST]

u don't need 100 in anything to hit a passing shot.

Very true. I played a match with Sherlock yesterday. Sherlock had 90 on volley, and although I did have 90 on power, I only had 50 on fh/bh. When I got into position, and timed the shot well, I hit a ton of passing shots.

[ACERBOMB]

Im sorry but how can you not be a offensive power baseliner with a 90?

The volley person cant put anymore on there strength than you can on yours.

This rule creates a more balanced game that allows for different styles, I think many of the people online use 100 on power fh and bh our not as good and they do that to compensate.

I personally will have one online character to compete with the cheesers and one for the tour for fair play.

Thank you so much for this rule. I have had a few matches with Rob and he is a serve and volley and im a power baseliner and our matches came down to tie breaks and were very competitive so I know this works.

[Mike Rotchtickles]

i don't like the new rule change its giving an unfair advantage to people with no skill why should i have to scarfice my 100 power so a no-talent wanna be can compete with me. i dont volley and im a baseline player so i need all the power thats avaiable to me so when i come up against a volleyer which is rare but there out there i can it a pasing shot with everything i got and if he does make the volley i have a second chance to put it away or i come up against another good baseliner. u cant be a baseliner with no power now can u?

a baseliner with no power of their own is called a counter puncher and that i'm not. The running mecanics in TS3 seems to give me a lot of trouble although i have 90something on speed so whos @ the disadvantage now.

i work with my weakness so why cant everyone else

sometime to win a match another tactic besides skill,timming,court coverage, shot selection and anything else u can think of to win a match besides cheesing is overpowering your opponet eg. rafa nadal.
instead of making the rule change to 40/90 maybe u should have made it to where u can have only one stat with 100 and 1 stat with 30 know thats fair instead of penalizing the power players.

have u seen a real tennis match lately,over even the last couple of years if u did u would know that power is very much apart of todays game.
we don't use wooden rackets anymore and all the guys and gals are hitting the gym.[/b]
so inconclusion a tour should not restrict there players to play a certain way or have a certain style of play do u see the atp or wta tour putting restrictions on racket companies although i feel it gives the weaker player an unfair advantage and the player with skill has to work twice as hard because of a racket which gives the inferior player more power, precision, and a bigger sweet spot which means more room for error. which means "they have a chance" please, grow some muscles and dig deep.
dont hate particpate

I agree with Al on this one. You just can't please all the people all of the time. I'm also thinking of joining the TS3 tour soon and these new rule changes sound good for a more competitive and realistic tour.

@ amazingjumpoff
wow dude, that's gotta be some record, going on for 3 years and this is your first post! Don't be afraid to try again from time to time.

[Pogagna]

surely, that's an improvement. whoever played a 90-40 match will notice the difference at the 1st point of the match.

thus, i still have some fears, that's to say i'm really afraid that soon many people (basically the same who goes away with 100 pow/serve/f&b) will start bitching with l2+r2 slicing, awfully effective and even more awfully easy. a rule change of this kind implies that fair play should be even more important, and i hope it will be

Do you mean the serves?
