Ah yes, I guess if you're unlocking them during the tourney the last one will be in May. They just announced support until June.
These co-op costumes are going to be annoyingly hard to unlock in a few months when the game is dead and it takes 10 minutes to queue.
I only remember a little form my time playing the demo but do the trick shots, etc get less frustrating the more you use them?
Most of the gameplay is online right? Have patches made it so, or at least attempting, to make it so not only a few characters are dominating?
Do you get points and unlocks even if you lose a lot?

Yeah, co-op challenges are going to be incredibly frustrating if they continue to require swing mode and match you up with single bar players.
Maybe future challenges are not swing mode. I hope...
Well. Maybe when event is new more people will play. Or era can try to coordinate.
This is in the how to play section but a quick tip if you didn't realize during the dark room segments if you lob and hit a glowing boo you can control a flashlight by tilting your joycon and boos in the crossfire get triple coins from your teammates.
edit: Wow, my team killed it with 746 coins in Round 3! Still ended with a B rank. lol

Yup. The challenges weren't that bad, either. What's kinda lame is you can't use that new prize with his regular outfit, only his Aces outfit.
Finally bought this game and was disappointed to find the online was dead. My kids and I had so much fun with the adventure mode, it would be a shame if thats the end of it.
We are always guaranteed a game of Splatoon 2 on the weekends but we would love to play some Tennis Aces, I love how it plays. Am I doing something wrong or is there a serious lack of interest in this game. Like it's dropped off a cliff?

Me and my wife moved to super mario party.
Last time we played this was a couple of weeks ago when Birdo was released. Even then, I had to wait to find a single match to unlock Birdo.
I give up after the second round now. Waiting for a third round opponent requires a lot of patience.
Well that sucks. Are they planning any new game modes or events or incentives to get people back online?
I shoulda done my research before buying. I feel a bit ripped off

they literally just added new modes and events...
not sure why you feel ripped off...
Like I said I only just got the game so to have finished the adventure mode in a few hours and to not be able to find a game online is pretty disappointing. I've got 2 kids, we are not waiting 10 minutes for a match.
Look I'm sure if I was playing months ago when it was popular I would have been loving it, but as it stands now it feels barebones as fuck.
I'm late as hell and just realized they added a new island to Adventure mode with 5 challenges
edit: yeah I was super late to that, forgot all about it haha
I can't believe they put a boss rush in this thing. And not shortened! The whole ass boss fights, lol.

The only switch game in 2018 I cared about, became unplayable online in simple mode. :(
NSO shite didn't help obviously but camelot should learn a bit about matchmaking based on rating (they even introduced that stat later lol) because it scared away a lot of players getting matched against hardcore lads. Didn't it sell 1M+? What a shitshow.
Ah well, I've had a couple amazing months playing this online after waiting more than a decade for a good arcade tennis game, fingers crossed for Virtua or Everybody's Tennis. :)

Up to 5 minutes round 2 during EU peak times. And if you have that patience, you'll play the same opponent 3 times an hour.
It used to be incredibly snappy, so much fun to play a couple of games, didn't matter when really. I would have played this for another year.:(
Focusing on tournaments was the wrong move. You'd have to be incredibly fortunate (and patient) to even be given a chance to win one now, but even if Camelot got everything right, would a tennis game last online? It belongs in the same pile as Super Mario Party and will remain a fun option for local multiplayer. Online would need a significant overhaul but that ship has sailed.
Online community totally dead in simple mode. Reached the semifinal in a breeze and can't find an opponent now. Even the world number 1 only has 9 tournament titles. That was totally different at launch of the game. Played the game there a lot. Auch a difference now :/ At least I'm enjoying to play as Diddy Kong a lot.
Maybe we should set up our own ERA matches?

Probably part of it. Another is it just gets boring after awhile if no new content is added.
Geez, you weren't kidding. Hopped on to get Birdo and Paratrooper and won a simple tourney but it took awhile to find that finals match.
And damn this game's population really did tank. I'm only 5-0 after one tourney completion on simple mode and I'm ranked 215 in the world and 62 in USA. LOL
edit: and there's some shenanigans going on with the leaderboards. I checked October's final rankings and #2 in the USA has a record of 1004-129 with only one tournament win, which means he probably just wins the first match and resets to get terrible opponents over and over. Crazy that Camelot never patched or prevented this in any way.

For those who still actually want to play there is a discord group where you can set up custom matches and they hold tournaments that they stream so there's still a dedicated fanbase. Only problem is these people are usually all godlike but I'm sure you could find lower skilled players on the discord if you look.
The only way to save online is to have events like party crash in Arms.
Concentrate people for a single weekend sometimes.
Coop challenge seems like it will be a failure. No costumes beyond boo announced.... Honestly it's a mess with horrible execution and planning.

Yooo
Also apparently here's what the December patch will bring, too:
Ranked doubles! Might have to start playing this game again.

Two characters in the same month. Was this always planned or are they in panic mode?
The update looks good in terms of what it adds but can the current online modes afford to lose all those players to ranked doubles on top of a new co-op event?

I haven't touched this game in months, are the cosmetic updates worth it? Also, have they really not added new courts?
Yes, you receive them automatically one month later. If you didn´t get Parakoopa for example because you didn´t play online in November, you get him in December.

Also random No Hazard courts in Online Tournaments (except the last match, which is reserved for Night Marina Stadium).
I loved this. Is it from this update or was it already in the game?
