The game's only been out for 1 week but I'm starting to get really fed up with a number of issues with online play which I think need to be sorted before the online game dies on it's a**e very quickly.
1) 'You have lost connection with your opponent'. Great, I work my way to a tournament final only to default 0-3 0-3 due to a bug. Thanks a bundle.
2) No player / friend invites and no real lobby area. Would be nice to see who's online and be able to issue challenges. This leads me on to...
3) No opponent level filtering in World Tour mode. Believe it or not, I don't enjoy thrashing 30 rating players without them taking a point off me. I'm pretty sure this works the other way round as well; who'd want to go back to play online only to be used as a punch bag?
Seems to me that the whole thing has been rushed (to get the game out before the start of Wimbledon? Surely not?) which is a shame as the gameplay is great but the actual structure of the game leaves a lot to be desired.
