Serve issues

[venom400]

Hi all and I apologize for bad spelling/ grammar in advance because I am typing this on my I phone on the metro rail

So I was playing with roddick on the 2k tour and I was noticing hoe unnefective having big serve is un this game , i was serving at 140 mph and everything was bring returned to me as easy as pressing a button , the only time it felt like the serve was dping anything was when I serve and volley , no unforced errors , no aces , not even a good high short ball , in RL if you try to slice a 140 mph service it is going to go flying so far with all that energy generated slice that you will never get anything in , but yet a fast serve usually works against you as the pace gets bounced right back at you with slice or TS .

Am I doing something wrong ? Because right now serving is just a way to start the point and not really a weapon of any kind , well unless you cheese and serve from the trim lines

Any tips ? I am serving with the sticks

Mix up the pace, and mix stick serves with button serves.

Mix up the pace, and mix stick serves with button serves.

Are buttons serve just less powerful? I didn't even think of using them to mix up serve paces.. Always go for the stick serve.

Just made a game in WT : 12 aces in 2 sets (4-2 ; 4-3 for me at the end).

The serve is better with the update i think, you just need the good stats at the good place...

I have the same problem as you...... even with 100 serve, i get like 2 aces i a 5 set match.

Same for me I rarely hit lines, never twice in a row, and if I do it's called out even if the chalk flew up in the air, lol. The only aces I get are from changing pace and direction in which the returner studders in the wrong direction, hardly ever from pure placement. I personally think there should be more return errors. They're practically non existant, if it does occure it's a shank off the returners' racket that never makes it to midcourt, it would be nice to see some returns go long or wide...wink wink.

Yes, especially if its a perfect flat serve......
