Exact Service and Risk Return (Questions)

Postby o Sinna o » Fri, 22 Jan 2010 10:18

Ok my esteemed Friends.

Just to clear the things up what I mean with a Serve exactly on the T-Line.
First of all, you can't tell me it needs months to hit a Service exactly on the T-Line if it's possible. I am not dumb and ever had a Skill for Tennis Games.

Does somebody of you Guys serve exactly on this Point I marked
with a red circle in the Pictur below?

If you do, please give me a advise how you exactly do this. I already know you have to use both Triggers (LT + RT) for that. But what else do you exactly have to do?

I already tried it like I said an made it very near to that marked Point but even not exactly on that Point. And like I see the things, I guess it's not even possible. I know the T-Line is big, so maye you didn't understand exactly what I meant. But now you got this Picture and will understand.

I bet you can't do that hard Serve on this Point because I couldn't also. (hehe)

Ok and my second Question goes about the Riskreturns. I already found out that you can hold the triggers (LT + RT) bevor your Opponent starts to hit his Serve and all you have to do then is holding the triggers and hit the A Button for a short time until you want to hit the ball when the Service comes.

And I already made a few in the field. Are you Guys doing it another way or are you doing it exactly how I described it?

Thanks for your time Gentlemen. Your Friend, Sickbo. :)

To hit that spot, you need to serve with the right analog stick. The right analog stick is harder (in my opinion) to use/master, but you are rewarded with much better accuracy and placement. In my experience, you cannot hit that spot if you serve with buttons, no matter how good you are or how many points you have in 'Service'. Hope this helps.

Also, holding RT or LT during a stick serve does nothing for your power or placement. RT and LT only modify button serves.

I love you my friend. This is all I need to know and now I know it because I really tried it hard with the buttons and I got a 90 on Service but it wasn't possible to serve exaclty on this Point. I had a feeling it isn't possible this way. Why didn't nobody else tell me that? If nobody said it me like you Jay I would try it the next few months without a positive Result hehe.

Ok but you say this works with the right Analogstick because you have much better accurary and placement. I will take you by the word and try it later.

Thanks Jay that helped me. :)

And if anybody has a answer to my Questions with the Riskretturns would be cool.

Every service motion has differnt timing. So you should play exhibition with some players and see wich motion suits you the best

Ah all righty I didn't know that with the different Timings by the different Service Motions.

I actually got the Service Motion from Andy Roddick. I bet you know which it is. I am not bad at serving and I often got the right timing when I Serve with the Triggers and Buttons. But I was just wondering why you can't server exactly on the T-Line like i marked it in the Picture from this Thread in a so called Tennis Sim. That's a lil bit unrealistic if you ask me because everybody know how often this happens in real Tennis. I would say it's a weak Point.

Are they wizards?

Ok I mean Jay told it goes with the right analog stick so maybed you are right.

But it's impossible to hit the point I marked with the trigger and buttons because I tested it.

I didn't made it with the Stick also but I din't test it enough to say it is not possible. I didn't serve very often with the Stick.

But if you like you can show me a serve exactly on this Point I marked and you are the man. :lol:

Otherwise psst.

Hehe just kidding. You are my buddys. :wink:

You can hit exactly on the line with the buttons, even with only 50 on serve. But you must time it perfectly - perfect timing with the aiming and perfect timing with the release of the button.

No you can't. Don't try to fool me. I am not a 12 year old Kid.
I tried it enough to say it's not pssible.
Jay said the same.

You are not cool because you lied to me.
Why you did this to me?

(hehe) :lol:

I mean you could show me a Serve exactly on this Point I marked if you like and find some time in the next days.

First then I'll believe you. Otherwise you lied to me. :lol:

Don't be mad Dude. I am just saying it's not possible to hit the Point I marked with the triggers and buttons. Jay said the same.

I am coming close to it but it's not exactly on this Point because it's not possible this way.

You can try it all day long if you like.

It is possible. Like I said, you must do it perfectly, and it is very hard to do. Using only LT is easier than by using LT+RT. The hardest part is timing the buttons - just because the serve is in does not mean you timed the button perfectly.

Also, you must aim perfectly. Not only must you hold the correct amount of time, but you must press at the right time, and in the correct direction (not exactly between forward and left/right).

Ok then I will believe you it is possible. But why did I never hit it after over 1000 Serves?

I hope you got a Explanation for that. :(
