Hosts, please a definitive rule !!

Another post about this argument but really I think every member needs a definitive rule

The question for hosts is simple and i think a clear answer is necessary:

Before the match players had to log in WT with THE SAME character they will use in the match??

Please a clear and definitive answer

How would you ever know which player they used on WT? It only shows them on the WT so I guess you just have to trust the opponent, but I guess any player used on WT will at least ensure proper connection to the server which is all you are after.

If you go in your friend WT statistics you can see what player your opponent registred, if you look at ShoCase video, he almost always do it before a match. The problem is that you know what player your opp will use and he knows too

Im not so sure that login WT with another player is enough, perhaps you have to login with the same player that you will use in the ITST match

Someone, like iLuvBillVal that seems an expert, has a clear idea about this point?

The fact is it won't make a difference lol. I'm sure that's not the answer you wanted to hear. The only thing I'm unsure on is if a glitched player is as effective on WT. It is theoretically conceivable that if you played a glitched player on WT he might not perform as well as in player match. Other than that using a player you log on to world tour with will make no difference whatsoever.

Why??

And how is possible use a glitch in WT?

by **ILuvBillVal** » Sun, 05 Aug 2012 01:02

1.why?
This is because when you initially connect to the 2k server when you first start the game the patch is applied to the game in general and has nothing to do with any specific player.

2.how can you glitch in WT?
Upon testing this I was frozen every time I attempted a button serve which is a sure sign of playing pre patch. This lead me to the theory that the patch is only downloaded upon the first connection to the 2k server and does not occur when connecting to the WT. As for why I am unsure. Perhaps the development just assumed the patch would already be applied and wouldn't want to do it twice.

Can anyone objectively confirm or deny that if the topspin button serve works in a player match, you can rest assured that everything's OK?

by **ILuvBillVal** » Sun, 05 Aug 2012 04:57

No at least not with one serve from what I remember it doesn't freeze every time but eventually will.

No this isn't the case. If you enter only enter world tour without making the initial connection(before practice ground) to 2k server, even then your player will be patched. You need to connect only once to server either before practice ground or through world tour or 2k open. I ve never seen such a thing that game freezes on world tour. I might ask, Your game freezed how long ago on world tour? Did this happen recently?

As for button serve. Only the guy who is pre-patched will cause the game to freeze. Suppose in a match one player is without patch and the other one is with patch then the game won't freeze if the guy who is with patch performs a button serve. Only that who is without patch will cause the game to freeze with Button serve. I thought initially that if game freezes on doing a button serve then atleast one of the two players is glitched. But this isn't the case. Only that player is glitched whos button serve causes the game to freeze

I can confirm this, once you connect to the server in order to play in WT or in any other mode, your character will be patched.

False.

What false? Do explain

by **maarastone** » Sun, 05 Aug 2012 21:36

why do we have to enter wt before a match? an opponent i faced asked me to do it and i complied but i didn't understand his explanation can somebody explain me?

by **Painted Crystal** » Mon, 06 Aug 2012 01:20

Sorry guys, you too expert so please say me only if I can play, after log in WT, with a different player registered in WT
It seems yes I can....

by **DennieFR1908** » Tue, 07 Aug 2012 18:28

It's all to strange to explain. Noone even knows for sure logging in into WT makes a difference, they only asume so, I think that's why there's also no rule for it... When you press start in the press start menu the game explores if there are any updates, and after that it should be done. I hardly log into WT, exept if ppl want it so badly, cuz it's no trouble for me. Anyway I always wait for people "Navigating through main menu" before inviting them, that's all..

If I remember well Vmoe exactly knows how this glitch things works, perhaps he can explain..

Hosts, please a definitive rule !!
