WSC Real 2011

2. It has been stated that you can disable portions of the aiming aid online (however you still cannot SHORTEN this aiming aid). Is this only for custom matches or will it apply for the tournament as well? My guess and gut feeling is custom match only and all aids will be defaulted to on for the tournament. (There probably wouldn't be enough players to have these options for tournaments).

3. Please give a definitive answer as to whether aiming aid can be turned off INDEPENDENTLY for top down view. This is just so so important for online play otherwise we will all be forced to use such a ridiculously easy view just to be competetive.

Answers please

was just wondering whether you can use the D-pad to aim or do you have to use the analogue sticks I only ask as do find the |D-pad easier especially for fine tuning my shots

wasjust wondering whether anyone had any knowledge of this. This is mainly due to my disability that I find the D-pad easier

Anyone?

My guess would be that you will be able to edit controls, so you should be ok but like i said, i'm only guessing. Most games usually let you edit controls for your own preference.

09 didn't but I hope you're rightand the new topspin 4 dosen't either thankfully withthat game though the easiest level is quite straightforward

Hey I'm well into Top Spin 4. I'm not very good at tennis games and was even getting beaten on "very easy" - how sad is that! Still 12 hours later and I'm now struggling on Normal lol

Would be nice if a developer would actually appear on this forum to answer the queries. For a game that's only 3 weeks away there isn't really much marketing going on!

I bought WSC on the Wii a couple of years ago, mainly for the pool.

Snooker was OK but the pool was dreadful with a really distracting 4 cross cursor thing revolving around the ball. Fingers crossed that will be removed.

Like the thought of one click shot, sound likes virtual pool on the pocket pc or even wii play billiards [just copy that].

I'll wait for the review and player feedback before I buy.

A wise move because from what i've seen & heard so far i've got a feeling it's not going to be much of an improvement on the 09 version..
Hope i'm proved wrong though.

Looking at those screenshots, visually there does not look to be that much of a noticeable improvement over the 09 version..

Hi guys,

Sorry it's been a while since we've been on here, we've been busy readying the marketing activity for WSC Real 11. Keep your eye on this forum on Monday - you guys will be the first to see the new trailer

Some answers to all the great questions:

Aiming aid:

• Although you can't choose a short, medium and long aiming aid, you start with a short aiming and and can choose to upgrade it by spending skill points. If you want to stay with a short aiming aid just spend the skill points elsewhere.
• No aiming aid can't be toggled off in top down view
• Yes all aiming aid sections can be toggled on/off for all modes including online

Pool interface:

• Yes the old interface of the floating arrows indicating nominated balls has been overhauled with a crisp, clear yet unintrusive new design

Controls:

• Yep the new controls are definitely much simpler and cleaner with the one touch shot and the simple set up of spin and cue angle

A few people have said they don't think it's been updated much since 09, this is simply not true. It's been massively enhanced over 09 in a number of ways, I've listed these in the forum before but it's worth repeating:

• All new pixel perfect physics system
• All new online tournaments
• All new super-slow-motion and shot-reverse replay system where you can position the camera anywhere on the table and have full analogue control over shot speed
• Save every shot of you entire match to enjoy again and archive the whole match to view every shot again
• You have two Rewinds per match - allowing you to retake a shot if you make a mistake and continue the game from that point (similar to the feature found in many modern racing games (this is not available during online)
• Controls have been simplified and made more accessible while allowing quick set up of spin and cue angle - you now have a one touch shot take functionality
• Greatly improved character create system
• HUD and interface has been completely re-designed throughout making it clearer and better looking than ever
• The front end has been streamlined so you can jump in and out of all the modes quickly with fast loading times
• All new aiming aid is better looking and provides more detailed information on ball behaviour

There's probably more I have forgotten but in short it's a huge overhaul from 09 and we've incorporated many of the features fans requested. We'll continue to do this for future versions and will be asking for your feedback on 11 too

Has the PC version been put back? Amazon has the PS3 and the Xbox360 versions up for pre-order, but not the PC version.
(Sry if this has already been answered, I've not read all 100+ replies in this thread...)

Just about to ask that question myself!

Also when is the website going live ?

[CueAce]

Throw in power snooker as an update? That would be incredible and worth buying the new game for. Probably wouldn't require too much extra programming either I imagine

[CueAce]

Also it would be good if you could improve the contact point between cue tip to cue ball if nothin else, it was quite frustrating in 09 seeing screw shots played with top spin.

Oh and a round cue tip would be nice too!

Will the cue action be a powerbar or mouse /joystick back and forward action ? bit like virtual pool !

Also, will there be a demo for the PC or Xbox Live ?

Got any videos we can see :-)
