Easy too easy and Normal too difficult

[andr.waldmann]

Easy is way too easy and normal too difficult.
There is too much frustation.
There should be a difficulty between easy and Normal
As it now is, the game is no fun for me.

Is there a normal difficult level or do you mean the medium level. I find the medium level still too easy and the step to level hard too big. At medium I defeat with my beginning player the top players easy 6-0 6-1.

Yes, I mean the medium difficulty.
Congratulations for your skill .
The game is too fast for me and with the clunky controls it
is not fun , only too hectic.
There are other players, who find Medium also too hard
Because easy and below is really way too easy and looks not even remotely like a real tennis game, there is no point to play the game for me .

At least they could add sliders to adjust the game speed and other stuff.

I'm in the same boat here ,where the current normal is too easy, but hard is too big a step up.

I actually do think the current medium level would be a nice natural step up for someone struggling with the current speed of the game, and with a little practice it shouldn't be hard to have good success on it.

But the current easy / easiest levels are pretty much hopeless.

Current Medium should probably be moved to Easy, with the current Medium level (present medium) made a little more difficult (between current medium and hard), and the current Easy level being made a little harder, but considered under the Easiest difficulty.

That I think would cater for a lot of players then, each with a nice difficulty for progression with the easiest level a nice starting level (being a level between the current easy and current medium difficulty - one where players can move around the court and keep a rally going, but perhaps without the miraculous shots to contend with.)

I did also struggle a while with medium but then found that if you use LT RT , maybe even standard for a while , a lot you can master that level . And then it becomes too easy again. I won against Hurkazc 6-0 6-0 and Rune 6-0 6-1.But iIn the semifnal I played on Hard level against Draper and lost 6-3 6-2 without really a chance.

Then I returned to playing a challanger tournament and started on hard level and lost in the first round in a simulair way as in the semifinal against Draper, And if I would not been able to read the name of the opponent I would have thought it was the same player. And that is also a big problem of this game , and also was in AO2. Players from rank number 800 play the same as the number 8 They are able to play the same shots , at the same speed and the same angles. And that is what also makes this game unrealistic.

What also is unrealistic is the number of balls that hit the top of the net and most of the time are not reachable and make a point foir the opponent .


In AO 2 there is the option to change the ball and/ or game speed for each surface with a sort of slider.

After I used RT LT more I could master the medium difficult . But then it became to easy.

The difficulty levels just don't make any sense as also the levels of the opponents don't make any sense. But then again we don't have any stats on other players.

Indeed, Easiest and Easy levels at the moment shouldn't even be classified difficulty levels for someone that plays games - although I could understand employing one of these for example for any 5 year olds or so that perhaps want to play the game but aren't really proper / regular gamers without any real tennis knowledge.

That should though then be a beginner difficulty, and one that should not be considered as any standard game difficulty.

Hm i think it is too easy, just beaten Azarenka 6-2, 6-2 Sakkari 6-2. 6-1 and Iga 6-0, 6-0 on Medium with my overall 46 Girl in my second Tournament wich is the Transilvania Open. Now i am going to eat an then playing the Final, bumping difficulty one up.
