The superhuman AI is a killer to me and ruins everything else that is actually quite good. Unforced errors in tennis is *the most crucial stat in gauging how a match went. *In AO tennis 2 it’s not uncommon to see unforced errors around 5 or 6 for cpu and 39-40 for human even after patch. *I just can’t get past that and could never recommend this game till that’s fixed.*

This is a HUGE comment -appreciated- will now wait to see how/if future patching can help the issue, otherwise I have too few hairs left to pull out thanks to Madden, MLB The Show base running and relief pitching.
Thank you CujoMatty

Definitely an issue with unforcoed errors, but I've been enjoying the game even with that. If they fix that issue which is huge with Tennis, this game could go down as one of the best Tennis games ever.

Been enjoying the game a ton. I don't see an issue with unforced errors on my side anyways. Usually the CPU has more than me especially when I was playing on pro. I played on pro and now playing on Vet.* Vet you see errors more, but cpu gets as much or more than I do.* And I'm not just talking about when you serve and the cpu hits it back into the net either.* And really the only reason I even get most of my errors on Vet is because the games timing seems off. There are times I hit a shot with orange almost green and it's a dribbler.* I do the same shot and my bar was in the red (bad shot) and it goes over the net no problem.* I can't speak on the levels above Vet so not sure how bad it is there.*

I saw many bad comments so I was not sure if I should by the game. In my career in AO international tennis I just won Wimbledon at pro level with my player that’s only 64 strength. At the moment that I was playing this final I received AO Tennis 2 by mail and played my first set. I chose Isner because his movement is not that good and played against Tiafoe. My first impression is that Big Ant did a very good job. The improvements in gameplay are amazing compared with the first edition of the game. Movements of the players and the way they hit the ball is more realistic as well. I’m looking forward to play more 😃.

Yes you can use them in any mode
