So, I deactivated all the bars and visual indicators. And then, you no longer concentrate on a gauge bar, you just look at the ball, your player and when to hit it like on a real court... it's 100x more enjoyable. Your timings are less good at first, but little by little everything becomes more logical and fluid, you hit the ball better and better while having more fun. Online, there should be a mode where all visual aids are deactivated, to have real tennis game, with human imperfections.

I bought it and I wasted 74 EUR - a colossal disappointment to me. For a casual match using exhibition is kind of ok, but my Carrer is simply abysmal. The player improvements are so slow that you have to play countless frustrating matches with a player who runs like a 60years old out of practice and sends 90% of shots right towards the opponent with negligible aim. Plus, compared to Top Spin 4, you also have the stroke of genius, the energy meter, which basically force you to skip one tournament every two months. Why is that ? well obviously so that you hurry to the game store and buy their player improvement packets, ranging from 4.99 to 99 EUR. 2K is really getting shameless in ripping their clients. Control wise it is quite identical to Top Spin 4, with the very same defects: timing is way too important, it gets precedence over everything else, including tactics; volleying is a joke, to get a winning volley you have to hit the button before the opponent has even started to hit the ball. And matches seems rigged: the opponents play dumb for some time and let you win some points, then all of a sudden they start playing with incredible speed and hitting angles that are forbidden to you as a player. Compared to Top Spin 4, Top Spin 2k25 is also heavily dependant on 2k servers; if the servers are off-line, you are left with just exhibition - even a local my carrier requires 2k server. That means when 2k will pull the plug on the servers, this game will be useless. This is the last 2k games I buy, I really had enough.

The gameplay is so smooth! It takes a while to get used to but I think it could be really interesting when you master it. I feel like its an upgraded top spin 4 really. Graphic wise there is not much good to say about it but when it comes to actually playing points the graphics are not as important anymore and it looks quite okay to me. Downside are there are not many active players to choose from. I would've loved to play with Zverev, Nadal, Dimitriov, Rublev and also Wawrinka. Also the gruting sounds are not very accurate and they are too frequent in my opinion. I have to explore the game modes but overall I'm happy with this new tennis game.
