WSC 10 different to WSC 09?

[snookerfan91]

any news on release date yet?

check the other post just been asked couple of days ago, no release yet

[STEVE 09]

no never came across that problem but this game is highely boring now playing online is pointless you take on shots you wouldnt ever dare to take on and clean up its rediclous

I've kind of lost patience with this game recently after going through the most ridiculous loses I've ever had in the game. For instance I got beat in a qualifyer by a ranked 89 player who ended up clearing the table, scoring a century break and nearly getting a 147. Each and every shot the player was playing was potted with ease, yet some shots where nigh on impossible to pot, such as a long red from the baulk area. You could understand the odd one of these kind of shots being a success, but certainly not 4 successive shots after another!

This really peeved me off as this would never happen in real life, especially someone as poorly ranked as 89

So not played this game since last Friday night. Will be playing it again sometime this week as I'm starting to miss it a little, but you're right in saying this game can be extremley unrealistic in terms of shot selection and positional play. If real players could pot and get position as well as some of them do in WCS Real 09, then the snooker world would gain a huge new audience.

Yeah... I can't wait for the new release I bash other games now like mw2,forza3,etc

I also love Forza 3, such a great game

I had a session on WCS Real 09 last night and won 2 matches on the trot, so the break away from the game seems to have done me some good

[snookerfan91]

Cool nice to hear I'm on a role to tonight, winning lots

When WSC 09 came last year? Maybe the same month it will come this year.

I haven't found any information about wsc 10 yet

I think after the cock-ups they have made with 09 then we won't see another version.

[snookerfan91]

you dont even think there will be one not maybe this year but next year?

I think we will see another version, but maybe not till 2011..

I hope you are right, but they need to make a few improvements, especially with the PC version.

[STEVE 09]

Yeah it's now looking increasingly likely the next Snooker game won't be released until 2011. It kind of makes sense though as most of the previous snooker games for the consoles have been released on a two yearly basis. Unless something is announced soon, a 2011 release for the next game is very likely.

There can surely be some things changed in the next WSC game:

1. Option to change the aiming aid difficulty (easy - normal - hard) and not just on/off like now

2. Option to choose frame lenght matches by each tournament round in a sort of set-up menu in championship mode, and not only in practise mode so you can tune your career as realistic like the World Snooker real life tournaments

3. Possibility to choose your referee (Jan Verhaas, Michaela Tabb etc...)

4. Top-16 ranked players should not be playing a qualifying round! (who invented this in WSC Real for god sake?)

5. Option to save your progress after each frame played in championship mode. When you quit you loose your progress in WSC Real 09!

6. Referee voice should be separated from those of the commentators. When you turn the commentory off you also don't hear the referee calling your points.

7. You have to start your career as a newbee bottom ranked 96 player and not immediately as a ranked 52 player!


I know, perhaps too much to change at instance. But isn't it the purpose to produce a real authentic snooker sim? Let's hope for the best.
But overall WSC Real 09 is fun anyhow for the snooker fan!

I think those are very sensible suggestions. I think you shouls also be able to create your own custom tournaments as in previous versions.

My other complaint is the seeding is rubbish. I recently played in the 1st round of the UK (I am ranked No2) and played O'Sullivan ranked No1!!!

Whoever has programmed this game has little or no idea of snooker.
Also I was playing Steve Davis in the Welsh Open and HE was commentating too! Crikey, even the Hurricane, Whirlwind and Rocket couldn't move THAT quick between table and commentry box

[snookerfan91]

it really bugs me that the max frames you can play online on xbox 360 is only 7, it doesnt take long at all and not really challengable 'd prefer 15 or so

[simonwheeler]

I would like more access to computer players on games such as Bar Billiards which I enjoy immensely but find it so frustrating that I always have to play against myself when there is no one else about???

Also the odd "kick" as in real snooker would not go amiss?

Played 2009 to death - please release an "improved" 2010
