  • gameplay
    171 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the realistic motion capture and new mechanics like topspin, while others criticize the inconsistent serving mechanics and the controversial "scramble" feature that disrupts player inertia. Many users find the gameplay enjoyable once mastered, but they also highlight significant bugs, repetitive strategies, and a lack of depth that detracts from the overall experience. Overall, while there are promising elements, the game requires substantial improvements to reach its full potential.

    • “Best tennis gameplay available.”
    • “New mechanics to adjust to-- topspin is the new default shot (flat shots will hit the net, ball verticality is a big part of the physics and has its own indicator you can turn on in the settings), triggers are used as run modifiers and shot intensity modifiers, balls will go out of bounds and hit the net more (which is good, topspin is greatly lacking this real-life aspect of tennis).”
    • “Gameplay wise, the game feels really good.”
    • “The scramble mechanic ruins gameplay.”
    • “The lack of nuanced strategy means that the gameplay quickly becomes repetitive, as there are only so many ways to win a point before the game feels stale.”
    • “Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this game in its current state and without significant changes and improvements to the gameplay.”
  • graphics
    54 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game receive mixed reviews, with many praising the high-quality player models and realistic court designs, while others find them lackluster or not particularly impressive. Some players appreciate the vibrant colors and animations, noting that the graphics enhance the overall experience, but there are calls for improvements in gameplay mechanics and additional features to match the visual quality. Overall, while the graphics are generally seen as a strong point, they are not without their criticisms, particularly regarding the need for better integration with gameplay elements.

    • “Graphics are high quality, especially player models.”
    • “Everything from the graphics to the rallies are so realistic.”
    • “The modeling of the players and the courts is very good; the graphics for a tennis game are incredible.”
    • “The budget sadly didn't extend to anything graphics related beyond the licensed player models though!”
    • “The graphics aren't anything to write home about but they do their job.”
    • “Graphics are really lackluster.”
  • stability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from numerous persistent glitches that frequently disrupt gameplay, leading to a frustrating experience for players. This instability significantly detracts from the overall enjoyment and realism, making it difficult to recommend.

    • “Another significant issue is the number of glitches.”
    • “These glitches are not rare occurrences—they happen often enough to disrupt gameplay and make the experience more frustrating than enjoyable.”
    • “However, the lack of detailed movement, persistent glitches, and overall lack of realism make it hard to recommend.”
  • monetization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn criticism for heavily relying on microtransactions and focusing primarily on the number of officially licensed player models, rather than offering substantial gameplay content. Players feel that the advertisements emphasize superficial features, leaving the core experience lacking.

    • “Bogged down with microtransactions.”
    • “There's a reason why literally every advertisement about this game is solely around the topic of 'look how many official player models we have', because it's the only thing this game offers.”
    • “Ever noticed how literally every advertisement for the game only ever focuses on how many 'officially licensed' tennis players' models it has in it?”
  • atmosphere
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere of the game is highly praised for its polished presentation and immersive sound design, featuring dynamic crowd reactions and realistic environmental sounds that enhance the overall experience. Reviewers emphasize the importance of sound in creating a more authentic and engaging atmosphere during matches.

    • “Great concept, polished presentation, and atmospheric.”
    • “Dynamic sound atmosphere, with more dynamic fans during the match, more dominant environmental sounds, and more competent announcements. Just like Top Spin, the sound issue is important as it increases the realism.”
    • “The sound atmosphere is lacking; it feels flat and unengaging during matches.”
    • “The crowd noise is too repetitive and doesn't reflect the intensity of the game.”
    • “Environmental sounds are minimal, making the overall experience feel disconnected and lifeless.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music, particularly the 2K soundtrack, has received positive feedback for its quality, enhancing the overall experience. However, some users noted that the lack of activities and presentation elements detracts from the enjoyment.

    • “The 2K soundtrack is really good.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant micro stuttering issues, which detracts from the overall performance and smoothness of gameplay.

    • “Micro stutterings galore.”
