Honestly, playing offline doubles with and vs CPU is hilarious
I just ran into a special event, which was a doubles match, with scoring system 1st to 11 points, but you can only score when you serve. Anyway, the scoring system doesn't really matter, but the match was so extremely funny.
It is probably caused by the same scripting that's the cause for the impossibility to wrongfoot the CPU. So please put it on the list for 2k
Anyway, it's almost impossible to win a point, that's what I can tell you. It took half an hour for the match to finish, and I lost 4-11.
It really has nothing to do with real doubles. The reflexes of the CPU are just so extremely quick. They were literally standing at the net smashing into each other with the CPU just able to hit it back
I felt so useless at the net. Since you can't really anticipate for a shot crosscourt (the CPU can change immediately to down-the-line) you can't hit a volley unless the ball is hit to you. And if that's the case, honestly you do not have time to get the timing right. If you do (I managed quite a few times actually) there is just no gap to put it into. You can't really aim in between the players, and if you hit at the net player it will come back all the time. If you go towards the baseline player obviously it comes back always as well. You just got to be lucky with a putaway or a smash.
However, if you are at the net, it takes a while before you get to hit the ball. The rallies between the CPU can go on and on and on and on and on and... you get the point. The longest rally I had was 70 strokes... It could have been longer if I hadn't tried to force myself into the point, and thus leaving gaps for the opponents to hit the ball into.
Also, the CPU is really quick with movement on the court. So even if I was forcing myself into the point at the net, my partner would just cover about everything. Very rarely could the opponents hit a winner.
I was just sitting on my bed, watching the rallies, wondering what the hell was happening there
