whats fun in seeing your opponent clear up because these aiming aids are just too easy, top players dont see arrows reaching to the heart of the pocket either...

That's why I liked 04 the best, my best break on 05 was a 62, it was damned hard I found, a bit too hard, 04 was perfect between been able to pot, but also having to learn about cue ball reaction and percentage play as in which shot have I got most margin of error for, the AI was very realistic, the matches were full length, why dont u play with the positional aid off to make it more difficult?

dunno if thats possible to switch off..

[Yeltzman]

aiming aid and positionial aid can be switched off in options...

just to add my word on the game came today,ive played most versions from ps1 to current formats and im telling you the game isnt so easy this time ive just lost my opening game in the quailflying of china open and that never happened to me before the table seems alot slower and potting balls into middle pocket is tough,the aiming range isnt so long either when you start,it might become bigger the more points you spend on your player as you go along.its taking me a little time to get used of the controls used to old system,i find it hard to believe the earier poster who says got a 147 in 3rd frame...this review is posted after my opening defeat i see if i get better any questions i will try to answer honest if you got any.

My main one is my AI question on this page, my first break on 09 was a century (I LOVE scoring centuries like the great hendry)! lol, but I am thinking it's not that easy to be very good straight away, I'm also thinking 14:1/straight pool isnt on? Shame, fancied racking up a massive break, my other question is about the match lengths, are the early rounds best of 9 for qualifiers on full, then it would be likely the other matches are correct?

Enjoy the game, see u online! My tag is breakman

@yeltsman
Independent ?

[Yeltzman]

yes can turning aiming off if you wish and leave positional aid on if you wish,im strugging with both turned on at moment

[Yeltzman]

You can save a match halfway through now as well then continue it later...thats very good just noticed..plus theres a small update when you log in on xbox live as well...

[Yeltzman]

just checked for you if you play full length in china quailflyer its nine frames....50% 3 frames 25% 1 frame

[DarkEnergy]

Good to hear about all your experiences with the game so far... how you checked out the replay system?

[Mexicola1984]

Going to be honest, very disapointed in the game, its just WSC 09 repackaged with a new replay system

[Yeltzman]

just put a game of pool on and used replay now you asked looks very impressive not sure i will be using it alot unless i play some great shots but the pool ball colours so much more impressive playing the game on this version than last times out...so much easier to see spots or stripes wasnt easy on last version pool looks very impressive

Thanks, it was the same on 09 too, qualifiers were the correct length at 100% matches, soon as a tourney started it was best of 13, 13, 15 then 19 for final, instead of best of 9 9 9, then 17 in the final, I hope the match lengths are correct for the tournaments, as in 03 04 and 05 games!

[DarkEnergy]

That's certainly not the case. New controls, online tournaments, physics, replay system, coaching, ability to save all shots of a match and tag favourites, ability to retake shots, improved character create, coaching, new aiming aid, save your progress at any time, slicker menus, super fast loading times, Move support, new leaderboards, AI enahcnements... phew! Still, all feedback is very welcome and helps us to continue to build a better game

[Yeltzman]

Very harsh comment,only thing the same i would say from last version is the commentary i havent played no where near enough to comment on overall game yet but im enjoying it and loving the fact not scoring 50 or more every time i get to the table just my view

[DarkEnergy]

Good stuff. We redesigned the HUD to make it clearer and also the nomination graphics and the manual nomination system which you should find much slicker. The replay system is really great for analysing in minute detail the behaviour of the balls to see what happens and how the spin affected it. Remember you can tag favourite replays and archive the whole match at the end so if you pull off a great shot you can load it up later to show off to friends
