hawk eye on ts4?

[Robbin92]

Actually, I think they should add it to TS4 in the next patch. I mean, TS4 really needs something to make the matches last longer.

What could be better than a 50 shot rally? Getting a bad call and having to replay the point, that's what.

But u can choose to stop the rally to use a hawk-eye to end the point!

LOL!!

Oh, I forgot. Jay is completely right in his last post aswell.

I like the idea, because sometimes you can be entirely certain that a shot was out, or the fault call was wrong, but it's true. This is a game and bad officiating should not exist.

I can imagine Hawk Eye being used as a cheat to pause and regain stamina when someone is dominating someone in a rally say on break point.

It'd mean the developers would have to counter act things and so on.

If anything as a nice presentational touch maybe on an ace or a big winner or important point the Hawk Eye graphic can be shown (at Slams and big competitions) but it wouldn't affect the outcome of the play.

This way it'd give the sense of realism without affecting the play too drastically.

Anyone agree?

This is exactly what our previous discussion about this ended in and it is something I wouldn't mind being in the game.

I'm sure i've seen at least a dozen of balls in called out (first of all serves) and lots of late timed balls falling very close to the line. I think that the gameplay doesn't need to be modified because there actually are lots of doubt balls. A hawk eye can be a good feature.

You see, Hawkeye doesn't make sense in a tennis game at all. Except this one, because the computer is making wrong calls frequently, at least from what I've seen. Hawkeye added to this would just be a system for the computer to replay the shot and re-decide whether it was out or in.

And I agree with Rob it could get fairly annoying after a long rally.

The voting doesn't say anything about realism, just that a bunch of people have no brains.

Even though Hawkeye isn't the best idea in a game, do you agree the line calls can be piss poor in TS4? I've seen countless of my opponents serves be called out when I can clearly see a mark in the clay a couple of inches in the service box.

[jayl0ve]

Yeah I've seen that, but I think it has something to do with lag online...I've never noticed that playing against the CPU

[Vieira151]

Hmm true. I'll have to investigate.

[jwestbury661]

the majority of votes say yes so you cant say these are people with no brains cos these are the people who play ts4!

[Rob ITST]

Who says the majority has to have brains?

[KluddKalle]

People apparently voted George Bush Jr to be president...twice. So a Yes vote most likely means no brain...

[Rob ITST]

Actually, he was only elected once. He lost the first time, but there were "problems" with the ballot.

I remember when he won for this second term, John Stewart said it gave new meaning to the phrase "60 million people can't be wrong."

I never really liked the guy, but you gotta admit - he served during a VERY difficult time.

He also tried to clean up what his daddy couldn't finish off. And ended up putting our country in debt because of it. Clinton had us completely out of debt from his dad. And then he put us right back in it.
