Coin Tosses?

Postby cb1mvp » Sat, 26 Mar 2011 17:12

This is totally unimportant, but why do we still not have coin tosses in tennis games? I was playing through my offline career and it just randomly selects who serves first. Is this complicated to throw in? I feel like Madden had this feature back in '91. :)

It doesn't detract from the game at all but never thought about it until today.

Isn't that exactly what a coin-toss does? :P

Ha, good point...I just thought it'd be cool to have the option to serve or return. Obviously most people still pick serve but guys like Agassi would choose to receive first so it's not that uncommon.

Yeah, a choice would be nice. Maybe even let you pick which side to start from too.

Yeah, but sides would only matter if wind was added right? That's another thing that would be cool for the next version. Just little things that go into strategy in real life that aren't in the game. Although, something like that could get really annoying really quickly.

On some courts, the sun can make it harder to see from one side.
