Using more control shots i feel like is meta for sure. 70% control shots and 30% power shots. Using the right stick to serve is definitely better for more power as well. I personally turn off the timing meter, find it distracting. Just practice with the feel of the timing i find easier for me then looking at a meter.
I’m going to try it. I have a feeling that’s going to work for me. I play club tennis so I think the meter is throwing me off. Had to do same thing with NBA 2k.
That meter drove me nuts. I turned it off and not only did my timing get better, but the game is much more esthetically pleasing because I see the gameplay and not that damn meter
I agree but disagree. In top spin 4 control shots were more important. In this one you can hit multiple perfect control shots but not winning the point, I feel powerful shots are more important in order to win shots. Regarding the meter I completely agree, may be in the beginning leaving the quality indicator is the way to go.
I don't care what anyone says , this new hit timing freaking sucks !!! they have ruined Top Spin , the game is supposed to be Fun , not frustrating as hell . been trying over and over again cause I really loved me some Top Spin Tennis back in the day but this will be going back to the store...... #Refund
Agree too...online connection issues always ruin your timing. Really frustrating when you want to place it in the open field for a certain winner and the game stutters and makes you hit the net because you didn´t get the timing "right".
Well , I'm here back to say...they listened and with this latest update the hit timing is.......FIXED !!!the game is enjoyable like pass Top Spin games. great job 2K !!!!
@@ororomunroe587 I figured it out 🤩 depending on the skill you want; You have to select all 3 fittings from the same Set, Like All Set 1, All Set 2, or All Set 3 can’t mixed them which sucks 😏
Is the same guy that does fifa tier lists. If it is he talks out his arse. 😅 The guy said expedition and then goes to refer to the players as characters? 😂😂😂
Quick tip: you can really mess the computer up when you switch shot types frequently...on playstation when i serve i hit X first then when the opponent returns i hit O which is power shot to the opposite side of the court..they usually cant catch up to it but they will if yu hit it too late and it might also go out of bounds so make sure yur timing is on point💪
I've given up, the timing just doesnt feel natural or authentic. I love sports game that's all I play 2k,madden,fifa and even golf. This is the first system that just doesn't feel intuitive to me. Borderline unusable.
Not to me either. I was smashing many perfect shots (control shots) in 4 and here they are always too soon or late, I am adjusting myself to changes still
@@trounbyfire me as well my man!! I thought I will be much better at this game.. where are you watching ? On twitch? Is he really good ? Makes power shots or control shots?
I'm three minutes in and you haven't talked about "how to improve timing". Bye.
Not a 100% sure but did I just try to watch a tip video and I watched a video that told me to play the game more? Ha ha smh
Just got the game, it’s hard for sure, but lots of fun

I think groundstrokes are better without the meter. But I do need it for the advanced serve.

@@dipradog after playing more ranked matches i actually agree with you, power shots are definitely a must against pro players.
Does anyone use L1 quick boost thing to move your character? I can't feel a difference between hitting the button or not hitting it.
I do, you need to tap it before the shot button. At least that is how I use it
Nope
@@guillermosantos7224 can you please explain a little more? I’m really struggling to work out L1…
Stats is everything, reflex's and stamina is key, timing windows seem to be easier if you have good footing.

Facts. It’s my first Tennis game and it’s just not fun and frustrating. 80 bucks down the drain
Agree too...online connection issues always ruin your timing. Really frustrating when you want to place it in the open field for a certain winner and the game stutters and makes you hit the net because you didn´t get the timing "right".
I would disagree. I find it’s the most realistic timing to actually playing. I would however complain about the injury / fatigue rate in the career.
Well , I'm here back to say...they listened and with this latest update the hit timing is.......FIXED !!!the game is enjoyable like pass Top Spin games. great job 2K !!!!
@@ilovetech1289 fixed???it´s even worse now. All depends on the connection. Even in single player
The academy did not help me. I'm still off on timing especially for a hard hitter. 🤥
I learn to release the button before it hits the green and it says perfect most of the time 😳 now I’m playing on very Hard
Release before it gets to green, not when it gets to green
I’m stuck at gold training within MyCareer. 20 PERFECT shots with only 10 misses? Good timing hurts as well. INSANITY
How do you select your ability Skill under the 3 fittings 🤷♂️ I want the Diesel Server
I need to know this too.
@@ororomunroe587 I figured it out 🤩 depending on the skill you want; You have to select all 3 fittings from the same Set, Like All Set 1, All Set 2, or All Set 3 can’t mixed them which sucks 😏
I tried that before and nothing happened. Does something pop up saying you have a skill or something?
@@ororomunroe587 Yeah once you select all 3 from the same Set you can choose which of the 2 Skills you want to Add
Okay, thanks for your help. I’ll try it after work and report back lol.
I’ve never been so bad at a video game before lol… is it me or does this game just plan suck ???
Honestly I can’t get timing right in an online game no matter what I do.. meanwhile my opponent is sending me from side to side 😂
same here. I'm good to any timing game but not at this. It' a game too much focused on timing btw. Really annoyed, i'm dropping it after 1 week
Is the same guy that does fifa tier lists. If it is he talks out his arse. 😅

Am thinking about buying that game when I get paid
Hi, is this gameplay on PC, Xbox or PS5?
Xbox bud

Hey mine says that streaming install is active and it won’t let me play, why is this?

Is the timing exactly the same as topspin 4?
Not to me
Not to me either. I was smashing many perfect shots (control shots) in 4 and here they are always too soon or late, I am adjusting myself to changes still
@@dipradog i freaking suck so bad... im watching #30 in the world and pretty much all perfect shots... blowing my mind
@@trounbyfire me as well my man!! I thought I will be much better at this game.. where are you watching ? On twitch? Is he really good ? Makes power shots or control shots?
@@dipradog RUclips
I’ve had no issues hitting perfect shots at all.
All you gotta do is know the shot you wanna hit. Press hold the button and just release on the timing
@@phatdl2o3 how i can hit perfect? I try soo many time can get it perfect 😢
