impossible to play S&V online...

[schalkefan14]

guys,
am i the only one who thinks that serve & volley is impossible to play online?i tried it with so many different characters,but it cant work.first problem is that online are only the same players : 85 forehand , 85 backhand , 85 power.
on opponents serve its very very very hard to come to the net because they are immediately hitting there passing shots with 500 kmh...
but what makes me freak out here is that when i skill a player on serve & volley , i can have 99 serve and 81 volley,but a maximum of 70 power (best trainer inclusive).that means that my own serve is just 195 kmh fast...
my english is not very good sorry guys but i hope you understand what i mean.i only want to skill serve & volley,i only want to have these TWO good shots,but i cant get them because its not possible to skill serve , volley and power in one character....try and you will see it.this makes me **** angry because its the reason why there are only the same players online...

It is possible. You may not for the depth Aspect of Top Spin 4. If I suck as defensive Player for example and I do right now by the Way it doesn't mean that you can't master this Style and play successful with it. Yesterday I said in one Post defensive is the weakest Style but I also said that it could be that I only think this because I am not good at it yet.

You just have to play the defensive Players played by the CPU on very Hard or the same counts for S&V Players and you see what's possible because you are ofcourse able to do what the CPU does.
The only Problem is that a programed CPU almost always hits the right Timing automaticly and your Task is it to come close to it or master it almost perfectly with your Style as a Human.

but it doesnt make sense that its impossible to serve with more than 200 kmh without having less than 80 in volleys....a serve % volley players just need too strokes,serve and volley and it cant be that i can srve with just 195 kmh when i have got 99 on serve and 70 on power....more than that isnt possible without losing the volley skills

Almost everything in this Game makes Sense even if you don't see it right now because it was developed my Professionals which tested the Game during their long and hard Work.

You may not forget the Balanceaspect.

S&V online is certainly possible, but I find it hard to create a S&V player with a decent power ànd volley (70+) stat, something like Sampras for example.

Yes you know what really could be done better from the Developers.?

They should have create the Pro Skills the same Way we do it with the Level Up System which is in the Game. I mean with the same possible Steps to level up your Character.

If that would be the Case we would have almost no Problem to recreate a Pro so good as possible besides the ones which have more than 550 Points.

Also that almost every Pro has one Extraskill more is not good.

The developers already received hell for making some pro's less realistic in favor of balance. Dont want to know what would have happened if they took this a step further and used the character creation system to create the pro's .

Hehe that's right I just thought. ^^

Rocketsfall is a real pain as a S&V . ( that is a compliment) So yeah it's rather possible to be effective with it.

easy way to improve the power stat is to utilise the coaches special abilities.. my current one in total gives me power+ 13 (assuming coaches still maintain thier effect online)

If you manage to get the 'stick serve berserker' like i currently have now, it'll be more easier to execute a good serve on the line which you can follow up with a good volley.

I have experienced this too. A real pain...in a good way. At one point I actually had 0-40 in his serve. Do you think I broke him? Noooo...

the key with S&V is to realise you cannot always go to the net. Like everything else it's all about timing.
