Laughed pretty hard at Murrays grunt (or whatever it was) at 5.40 in the first vid. :D

At 9.43 in the second one I guess we see the first use of the inside out forehand button...

Really like the 2 new videos.
Look much better then the other video, agassi against djokovic.

But is it just me or did i read/see some places that there would be 2 bars. they only got one in the videos :?

Hmm guess i gonna start look after that with 2 bars.. or maybe there is only one, and i just have dream about the second one :oops:

But can for sure not wait to get hands on this game :D

Wow, those 2 vids were much better. I like what I see.

The characters seem to have weaknesses and strengths. As djarvik said, risks are integrated in shots now, and as your stamina goes down not only do you move slower, your accuracy and consistency decreases. So even if your timing is perfect, you might still miss just because your character is tired. That would nice if it's true.

Demo needs to come NAO.

It is true. Agassi is a offensive baseliner, Murray a defensive baseliner. In some of those points, murray wore agassi down and forced an error on a easy winner. In others, agassi overpowered murray. And as in real tennis, the player who has the highest level of controlled agression won :)


I know i am biased, but i would like to see some proper serve and volley gameplay. Not serve, couple of groundstrokes and move forward. Preferably sampras vs agassi :D

Hehe don't be so fussy. You don't have to.

It's called the birdperspective. :lol:


Yo Sinna, dunno why you copied my idea out of nowhere but whatever :lol:
I want to do this seriously, I want Top Spin 4 to be big! I want to introduce Top Spin 4 to a broader audience, and I want to provide the best screen and commentary quality that I can do. Hey, maybe with some support I can end up at MachinimaSports! :) I can dream right? lol

Good job by 2K cause Murray hits unrealistic and cheesy shots.

But seriously, 1 questionable shot on a bad pass attempt by Agassi in 20 minutes of play?

OK I will do it the real way in the feature and record it direct with a HD Grabber.

And now I will watch these two new Videos here in the Thread.

I miss Aces as I watched these two new Vids. But who knows? How you can see in the Vid, Agassi and Murray are not serving very well on the Lines. So maybe everything is possible so soon we ITST Players master the Serve.

But everything else I saw looks alot like real Tennis. It looks really really promising and good.

Cheesers will naturally find and exploit questionable shots if it is possible and not difficult to pull off.

Yeah and Cheesers will naturally drive to hell and sucking big balls until they die. :lol:

I am abolutely serious ofcourse. ^^

It's like in every TS Game. If there are Possibilities to cheese and some Players use them we will find Solutions to handle it.

And if you play with the real Guys from the ITST you get a cheesefree Zone anyway.

If you play ranked Matches or random Exhibitions you have to reckon with Cheesers.

But we will see. ^^

i liked what i saw in these murray-agassi videos. I am a bit releaved about power and pace during the match, there's rythm although the guys dont know tennis.
a few details i observed:
-it seems that now the player serving is not hitting the ball on the floor automatically anymore so that means it's probably a button now (down direction?)
-by the cheesy shot of murray and other moments of the video we can clearly see that now you can hit the ball very early and very close to rebound, which was not really the case in TS3. Its a good point but i admit it was a bit unrealistic by murray to hit such a winner in that no man's land position... or maybe extremely lucky timing?
-on the gametrailers 4 parts videos, is it me or did the crosshair shot (controlled shots) looked way more powerful and fast than press-and-hold power shots???
-Davis cup may be in the game! you can see that in the info pannel of the career mode, it seems it is called "tennis world finals". They say Djokovic won it "for serbia"... so maybe they're talking about the atp world tour final but it isnt the exact same name (although the stadium is licensed) and mentioning the country may mean it's a country based tournament... thus davis cup?

lots of things remains the exact same from TS3... lots of things in the create a player options seem left unchanged (grunts, attitude, etc). The replays are the exact same ugly and non-dramatic replays. The crowd is still very poor (either they move altogether or they all stand still). Not a big deal, but the supposed "huge overhaul" is in fact a gameplay change and a few additions.

The coach system is really a great addition. Aside gameplay, i think this is the most interesting change in the game. This is really a great way to have variety in characters.
If only they put more slots or created players... i wanted to create most of the top30 and some retired players (safin!) as well as some fictional characters of mine....
