Just in case you missed our AO Tennis 2 interview with Big Ant Studio CEO, Ross Symons, you can read it here.
Operation Sports: How will community content be shared in various modes? Will we be able to create and share players and courts that aren’t officially in your game and import them into Career mode, for example?
Ross Symons: AO Tennis 2 has a comprehensive set of tools that cover just about every element of tennis – players, venues, logos and equipment – content which users can upload to our servers which is shared across all platforms.
OS: Will we see more variations of rallies, depending on the surfaces we are playing on?
RS: Players now have their own surface preferences, and this adds additional tone to the game – if you’re a clay court specialist, you may find grass court matches much more difficult. We’ve also refined our systems so that you’ll want to make use of all your options – slice, topspin and driving flat shots – so success in AO Tennis 2 will require the kind of situational awareness that the best tennis players share.
We’ll be working on our AO Tennis 2 review shortly, so keep an eye out for it.
