Davis Cup Question

Does anybody know how the Davis Cup works in the XKT mod on PS5?

Im seeing some discussions on other forums about it being limited to 3 rounds and basically a static set group of countries that contest it every year as a result.

Is this correct, or can any country qualify if the player rankings are high enough?

Difficulty Scaling Question

Relatively new player here (and God I love this game), I'm on my first proper World Tour Seasons career after hitting up the Training Club for a few days.

Settled on doing an Ernests Gulbis career starting in 2007 (when he's ranked in the 100s) as I felt most comfortable using his baseline gamestyle in the training club and he was quite an interesting player.

Anyway, started with the Brisbane international Qualifiers, on Pro 1. Wallopped Rameez Junaid 6-0, 6-1. Beat Michael Llodra 6-7, 6-3, 6-3 (struggled with his serve and volley in the first), then rolled Starace 6-3, 6-2.

In the main draw I beat Nalbandian (who is currently ranked #8) 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 and then Gonzalez (who is ranked #10) 6-2, 6-4. I've got Nadal in the next round.

I'm playing on Pro 1 with the assists on, except for the serves. I don't really want to remove the assists just yet, as I'm still relying on them especially for shot aiming, but I definitely feel like I need a difficulty increase. I don't mind turning up and beating higher ranked players, but it feels like I did that too easily there. Until Ernests abilities and rankings improve, I'd like it to be pretty hard to beat a seeded player

I'm not quite sure of how the scaling works in this game though. Should I up it to Pro 5? Pro 10? Or just a couple of levels to like Pro 3?

What difference do you all find the difficulty scaling makes?

Prospective player with questions about career mode

Hey all, looking at the possibility of picking up TE4 on PlayStation 5

I've been playing tiebreak for the last few weeks, and really enjoying it, but have heard great things about TE4's simulation gameplay, and career mode. I'm a big fan of the 2000's/2010's era of tennis and the idea of playing through a career mode in that era is very appealing to me, I just have a couple of questions I've been unable to find the answer to in resources/online. Keeping in mind I would be playing on ps5 rather than PC

  1. In career, am I able to change the outfits of one of the database players I'm playing as? So just changing up gear from tournament to tournament for immersion purpose

  2. Can I change the outfits of my opponents?

  3. Does the game automatically set all Wimbledon outfits to white?

  4. How would you rate the overall depth of the career mode compared to, say, Tiebreak. Obviously the span of eras and players is a huge upside and I'm super intrigued by that. I don't necessarily need bells and whistles like press conferences etc, but a really deep feeling of actually playing through a tennis calendar is what I'm after.

  5. Do you progress your database players skills in the same way that you would a created player, or is that process a little different?

Thanks in advance for anyone that's able to answer any of the above for me!
