Hi
Section 2 animation, I wrote the topic about pivoting , but in regards to vollying, in addition too using the slice animation as the stroke, which is common in tennis.

Hello,

here some additional suggestions (things that I would like in the game - mostly concerning gameplay):

- in Career Mode's Tournaments: Qualification Rounds, depending on the player's ranking and the Tournament's category. And perhaps additional Challenger Tournaments

- in Career Mode: team competition (like Davis Cup - of course doubles should be there before)

- option to reduce the number of games per set
(in exhibition but also in tournament/carreer mode. Intention: to reduce the (real) match time. Some people (like me) do not have as much leisure, but would like to play tournaments and seasons in spite of this.). Alternatively: any other Counting method which could reduce match time, i. e.: something like a "deuce-mode" (every game starting with deuce). optional, of course.

- possibility to use preparation-buttons in addition, when "auto-prepare" is selected
(intention: to make it possible to change, for example if computer has pre-selected backhand, but a forehand would still be possible)

- during match: display "Break Point", "Set Point" and "Match Point", like in TV.

- after matchpoint was played: Auto-Replay (even if it wasn't a winner) and Auto-Display of Match statistics (at the moment, the statistics are not shown after the last point, i think)

- player's emotional gestures (by controller button, like excusing after a net ball, smashing racket, "come on"...)

- Sound: add (optional) player's grunting

Very good suggestions mate.

Here are a few suggestions I already sent to kschoice's attention. Please let him know what you guys think is okay, boring, or just out right crazy! This way, he can concerntrate on more important matters of the game than my silly ideas: :oops:

1) viewtopic.php?f=7&t=241

2) Also, I think there should be a scoreboard (like what is already there) that shows your seed and ranking in the world.

This way, as you have many players created into your game, you will know who you are dealing with. Also, it helps with insider commentaries during the match. I do that with my family. :mrgreen:

3) kschoice is already working on this one, but I would like to see this too . . . A challenge system (umpire having the highest percentage of calling the ball and each other linesmen/women having different percentages of calling the ball in or out). Umpire can over-rule. However, you can then challenge if you do not agree! :)

4) Ladies tour needed!

5) Doubles tour needed within the same season of a singles career.

6) Weather/wind can affect play (ball action and also mentality and focus for players).

7) Smart ranking that will count you out of the tournament if you do not play the game every week. So, your ranking will drop if you do not turn the game on and play it. Of course, this option can be deactivated.

If I have others, I will let you know!! :) Do did great. The game . . . you did great. :mrgreen:

Ks, you're working on a Hawkeye system :shock: ?! If so, wow that's a pretty difficult undertaking. Good luck!

A few suggestions:

1) Seeing as how you've added ball bounce physics properties, I would like these settings to directly affect the outcome of a generated match result; e.g. Since on clay courts the ball bounces higher and slows down more, this should benefit players who have high retrieving ability stats etc.

2) The addition of sliding animations when playing on clay.

I'm thinking about it, as this would surely be a bluffing addition. But can't say I've done anything concrete about it yet.

Those settings already are taken in account when computing the outcome of a generated match result. Actually, there is about nothing than can be done to generated matches in particular, as they are only accelerated normal matches, using parts of the actual game engine.
That said, I agree that AI behavior and tactics so far don't illustrate surface impact on play at its full extent, but really, as I said, it's part of improving the AI.

Jay wrote:2) The addition of sliding animations when playing on clay.


That is a tough one. It was considered during Full Ace main development, but abandoned in order not to delay release even more. As for other requests of adding animations, I would say my priority is improving those already existing.

Dynamic Player Attributes

I remember a couple of years ago Juan Martín del Potro went on a win streak when most of the top players(besides Roddick) were at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, before that I always thought Del Potro was weak mentally and would never be a top player. But the confidence he derived from that run gave him the belief that he could become a champion thus cumulating in his superb victory in the 2009 US Open. If those top players didn't miss those regular season tournaments that Del Potro won I don't think he would of pulled off that win streak and would probably be a nearly man like Murray.

So I was thinking of a few ways to implement a confidence system in Full Ace...

(A.) Full stat changes for all players based on form...
(+1pts per win, -1pts per loss)
(+5pts per tournament win, -5pts per 1st round loss)

(B.) While all players may be difficult to implement, maybe just change the stats on the players dominant shot(which a player could pick at the start of a career,forehand,backhand etc...) which could be calculated at the end of every tournament.

This would give the career a more realistic feel and a feeling of improving, making every match at the start of your career crucial.

Hi all
I have a little suggestion regarding online play .
I have started playing online & like all other online games there is alot of lack of courtesy
or respect if you like.
I dont mind players that give all for the win, but when people dont give you the chance
to position you self to recive serves it just pisses me of :evil:
This i think can be handled in 2 ways .
Either the game remembers the last return position or you could force the server to bounce once before serving .
Or you could give me the option to ban the ip of the player so he cant join my matches :wink: wich would be sad, cause we need all players ,even rude ones.

One other thing that i find vital is that there should be a stat limit for your atributes . Am sure this game will grow larger soon, with the itst tour around the corner ( great online tennis game community ) but more players will also mean players that will do everything to win and play with 100 in all stats :cry: and am hoping that you have a plan against that .

Actually, you have to give credit to marty2756 for updating the suggestions list. It makes it easier for me to keep track of all suggestions, and (hopefully) avoid people requesting the same things over and over. Now, for a suggestion to be in the list doesn't mean it's gonna happen soon (or it's even gonna happen at all) ; just look at all the things in the list already, that's a good share of working time !

Marty. Please decide whether you want to include this on the list too:

1) MPH for American courts and KPH for Non-American courts
2) Player gesturing (positive and negative). For example, if you press the positive gesture button one time, it motions a "come on!" like body language. If you press the button twice, it will commend the opponent for a nice shot. Etc.

That's pretty brilliant ;).

I would like to see the character with the ability to turn around and run in the opposite direction (when the player is lobbed at the net for example) instead of slowly running backwards.

Hi Q!, MPH/KPH item added, however, I guess the second item was already in the list (2.6)
