I'm assuming the "everything tour" is the pro and custom tour.

I can add an option for that. But I was just asking which tour you would be most interested in. That doesn't necessarily mean you aren't interested in another tour...so voting pro tour does not mean you would not be interested in a custom tour as well. And, if I put that as an option, I would need to put other options like custom + everything, limited customs + customs, limited customs + pros, etc., etc.

I think I'll keep it like it is for now, but if you guys are really adamant I change it I can do that.

EDIT: I know it's very early. I'm not asking what ITST should do, just what everyone would be most interested in playing at the moment.

I have an all rounder player with volley artist and diesel hard hitter trait and I'm doing pretty good against cookie cutter power characters , even the big servers , because usually people that go big serve is because they like to win without trying , so when the ball starts going back to them they panic , What I do with this big servers is guess more or less where the ball is going and run in one direction , if he hit the other way then it's an ace but if you guessed then you can pull the ball back deep .

I particular like the people that put 0 points on volleying and then they call me cheese for volleying or bring them into the net .

Pure power opponents are tough but beatable , they are just not fun to play against .

I would like a sim as long as the sim just imposes limits ,But I think it would be nice if they let you play with a power forehand and a weak back hand .

Anyways just a few cents

Your few cents is welcomed bud! I bolded those points because I think more ppl need to see them lol. I have trouble with power players but if you can volley well it's definitely a good tactic to use. The drop shot is also a good weapon to have if you use it wisely. Add control shots to that and you have a lot of options!

I agree that some of the setups are a sure fire way to victory against certain others... but not everyone uses the setups to their fullest potential, so there's still options for defeat.

i voted "everything tour' in a rush by mistake yesterday night so you can remove one vote from it. I would probably vote one of the first two options if there was only one tour, can't decide wich one really as i'm not playing the game yet. But in theory i understand KDZaster points and people wanting to also play a pro tour, so i think two tours would be appropriate, one of them including pro's and customs, tweaking the rules thru time.

Anyways i'm trusting itst staff experience and i'm sure they'll end up with the good formulas.

Remember, some restrictions still can be made in each of these tours. Like the 40/90 rule from TS3, or eliminating a few pros on a pro tour that make the game unbalanced.


It has be a SIM tour! Although I was always going to say that :lol:

However I appreciate that members also like to max their own players and therefore some form of a 90/40 equivalent tour makes sense too for the hard hitters.

I don't really see much value in a Pro tour, in theory it sounds alright, but in practice I feel it would be a bit tedious and lack variety. Perhaps a Pro "Cup" every 3 months might be fun?
