New 64.7MB patch on Xbox, is this the slice animation fix?

Ps4 also got one. Wonder what's in it.

So yep, all platforms got an update this morning. This is your weekly update. hopefully we've fixed up the ace exploit against the AI.

Now all platforms are in sync with fixes and features. one thing not called out is there is improvements to prevent the no shot issue people have been experiencing.

Next Week Plan:
Online Connection improvements - making the game play better with poorer connections
Skills tuning - making these have more impact per player
Preferred Court - select a court surface that's preferred for a Skill boost (if you do this you then have to select an least preferred with a skill loss)

Additional Clay court colour variants and improvements to the look of the current clay court (more footsteps)
Additional Grass court colour variants
Venue Creator Usability improvements

There may be a couple extra surprises included, but will have to see how we go.

.

These two sound very interesting, would love lower stats in one attribute mean more chance of error

Eg, player has amazing stats but if forehand flat value was 50, playing this shot more likely to go long/ in the net etc

Is it next week already???

If it's Thursday in Melbourne, and you keep going around the world another three times, then isn't it next week there? Or something like that. I'm getting dizzy.

After a quick test, the volume level of the ball sounds is consistent now, at least on my PC. So thanks for that.

Same on ps4 and movement is getting there. Much better. Even ball flight seems better. And none of those frozen leaves as yet.

This is an issue... ? Just thought it was me being rubbish.

The bits in BOLD sound very promising, been waiting for an update for this part of the game, both the grass and clay court surfaces currently look very poor with no detail at all in them, they look very low res, if you look when it zooms in on the court when a challenge is made the surface detail looks awful for a current gen game, truly hoping you manage to get much more/higher detail in both the grass and clay in next weeks patch rather than simply adding a different colour so they look more like the surface their supposed to be, it's easily the total lack of detail that is the biggest issue IMO with both the clay & grass surfaces, my fingers are firmly crossed already

Improved freedom of movement prior to shots

ya certainly feels more organic and fluid now.
