Yep to go through all the shots and buttons etc. I've been playing over an hour and I've done 'How To's' 'Baseline lessons' and halfway through service. Still then got mixed training, volley lessons and special shots.

They have done a much better job with being able to mix up shots, especially on service.
 
Just played exhibition match and it feels like if you are playing tennis in slow motion,just can't generate any power in shots,every shot feels like its lob or some thing and as danny said definitely not an arcade style game.Especially if you like vt3 style tennis game you will take some time to get use to the slow pace of this game.

As I say training is a must to learn how to time the extra power. Its not about pressing the button it's about holding it down and releasing it at the correct time. I was double tapping on the serve to start with until I realised you dont press you release.

The service training is tough on the last tier but really needed. I can now serve consistently hard and to the edges.

I'm bored ;)

Honestly I wont do anything other than the tutorial and then wait for you to finish the same or until your ready. I have people coming over for dinner later so you will have time to get it done :)

Then young soulja boy, your going down!
 
I'm really liking this, they have done a great job. That awkward risk shot system is gone. Replaced with LT for a near the line shot and RT for added power. Or you can use both or neither. Left analogue still controls shot direction.

Using the Right analogue for serving takes a bit of practice not sure I will use that much in game.

Your not going to get the same old rallys with this game. Very good update imo.
 
I have taken couple of training lessons and can give you bit more insight,actually game looks quite good and very realistic after getting use to the control i have start liking this game now, for sure this game will provide hours of online fun.
 
I've got the last two sections to go on training. I think this game would be next to impossible to learn the shots without doing training.

I cant see any of my mates coming round playing this and liking it. They wouldn't stand a hope of hitting the ball without putting in the practice. Its much much more sim than the last one.
 
This sounds promising. Might have to pop down to my local high street store tomorrow and pick it up. :)

Been hoping for a more sim style tennis game. TS2 was ok but it seemed a bit basic. Always hoped they'd push the next one to be more technical/involved on the shots. Risk shots sounds better implimented too.
 
Just a suggestion for those that will go after the achievements. Asap go to world tour and play your 20 games. That way before thousands of players get on the leaderboard you have a chance of getting the 20 games under rank 1000 achievement.
 
Awesome game, a lot more technical than number 2. Really enjoying it and a lot to learn, shame about the lack of players, Nadal Djorkavic (sp??) etc

Yeah its good I just tried world tour and was holding my own against the player ranked much higher than me. Sadly the games take a while 3 sets etc so had to quit out at 3-3 in the first set.

Then it automatically found me another game, which I had to quit from before the game started so I'm 0-2. Ranked 114 in the world :D

What I really do like online is your always at the bottom of the screen, about time they did this in a tennis game online.

Can you confirm the World tour achievements relate to single player at all?

Making the only Live achievements - the Top 1000, play without loosing a game, play without winning a game?
