45 forehand?? You might as well just let the ball go past you if your opponent ever finds your forehand.

it looks like Rob will never no lose

[maximo]

do u think? maybe with 44 speed would be dificult S&V, but i don´t know it, i am really bad in S&V.

Forehand 45
Backhand 50
Serve 90
Return 60
Volley 85
Power 90
Speed 60
Stamina 80
......

This would be MY new favorite setup, the people who like it now would likely discard it immediately.

yep you and rob, would probably love this setup.

he transfers from a baseliner to power serve and volleyer

[Rocketsfall]

Please keep the 90 on serve cause it's essential for players consistently using the stick serve. (Isn't it, Rob?)
Bashmakov is the only baseliner with a 90 serve in the list (if he remains a baseliner, that is).

I think Bashmakov is much too powerful. 75 power and 69 speed I would think a player a little softer and more balanced.the serve is not a problem. This is just a karlovic.A player who has only his serve

hey buddy, good to see ya on ere.

Basmakov is meant to be a baseliner and big server.
My thoughts on this player would be to:

A) lower groundsrokes to low 50 on one wing and perhaps high 50/low 60 on the other
B) Serve, keep it at 90
C) Return, put to btween 60-65
D) Power, now SIM needs an good baseliner, so i reckon 80-85, which should take that extra zipoff the ball
E) speed, keep low
F) stamina, volley, distribute the above points

Played an itst match with puttu puttuu today.
We were both Bashmakov
It felt like a 90/40 match

When has a massive server got 90 power on their forehand/backhands?, it just feels with Bashmakov that it aint Sim tennis.
Karlovic/Roddick dont have massive power on their groundstrokes.

That's true. But in TS3 a 90 power will always influence the power on the serve ànd the groundstrokes; unfortunately if you ask me.
Personally I still feel a clear difference between Bashmakov and 90-40 stacked players. Bash has clearly less accuracy and on his groundstrokes and needs risk shots to stay in the rally.

Since it's probably already decided that Bashmakov will be modified, I would suggest to lower power to around 80 and to add the remaining points to the volley stat.

[Coolhand Texas]

you can really notice a difference when your stamina is getting drained. In my 5 setter with Pica, my regular groundstrokes were much much weaker

[Saarbrigga]

Maybe a strange idea, but what would you think about using some real life (famous) characters some day on SIM?

I always want to create a tennis player named Bruce Lee

[Moralspain]

ok i´ll use this tough guy: Lieutenant Marion 'Cobra' Cobretti

[Otlichno]

I'd be the picture of Slavic Perfection Elena Dementieva.
