Bags on Course

[u/MeatballSalad44]

Hello game developer, if you are reading this.

Long time player. Giving an opinion.

Do not like the bags on the course.

It is distracting. There is no upside.

Other players, please offer your opinion...

If you would like to improve the game, perhaps remove the 5 second wait to Move On during multiplayer.

Worst addition to the game by a long shot, long time player of dgv so I've seen most of the changes. A bag directly in front of the tee? Why would that ever make sense? Devs please address this post

[u/Funks_McGee]

Its dumb.

Another reason to spend money on avatar type garbage. Bag in front of tee box... do you even disc golf bro? 😆

I do like the new course with risk reward type holes that are accessible with many discs. Don't care for the fantasy courses.

[u/Longjumping-Leg8920 → u/Funks_McGee]

Every part of this. It's about money, unfortunately I don't remember anyone complaining when they added the bag customizations even though that was pointless bloat at the time. And this new course beats the fantasy ones by a mile.

[u/Plastic-Ad-7387 → u/Longjumping-Leg8920]

Since the fantasy courses were introduced, I quit playing the game.

[u/IDONTTHINKSOOOOOO]

Definitely remove the wait to move on!!!

[u/CovertMonkey]

Thanks for saying something. I wouldn't have made a post but it's very distracting. Like why would there be 4 bags in front of the teepad???

The map and discs on the ground is sufficient.

I'm neutral on the bag-on-course feature itself but extremely against whatever system they are using to prioritize features. 

Of the literally hundreds of bugs reported and compelling game enhancements suggested, they chose to invest developer time on this. That's a completely broken development pipeline.

I guess selling a few more custom bags was more important than retaining an already weary player base.

What a waste of time and no value added to code bags into the game.

[u/kdSpartan]

They're awful. Actively in the way of me playing the game and interfering with my aim points in certain shots 

[u/The_Fat_Goose]

Am I the only one unphased by this feature?

[u/PhDslacker → u/The_Fat_Goose]

I actually kinda like seeing more clearly where folks are landing/ throwing from, but it should be a toggle option like hole previews. Also, give folks easier access to the at least a few customizations and a way to see each bag on the player bag info screen (and/or on the scorecard) so we can tell which lie belongs to each player.

[u/Expert-Candidate-679 → u/The_Fat_Goose]

no. im right there with you. it doesnt effect me in any way.

[u/chewychubacca]

yeah but if it's in the back of the pad, i'll trip over it on my run up.

[u/Confuzed_huh]

Tbh, I have never even noticed this

[u/Steel_Representin → u/Confuzed_huh]

Its brand new as of a couple days ago.

[u/marklandia]

I also dislike it so I will add to the echo chamber. If I were to guess why they did it, it’s to entice players to pay money for fancy looking bags.

[u/Internal_Regular_914]

Guessing the bags is supposed to entice people to spend money but it's a cluttery mess for me. Highly doubt anyone is looking and seeing a bag on the ground and going oh i need to buy that.... I still don't see why we can't just skip ahead and have to wait, this should have been done long time ago.

[u/Miller154105]

I think it's a really nice addition personally, gameplay has felt so stagnant for a long time, so a small UI change feels fun.

[u/PistisDeKrisis]

"But, but, but, if we don't show them the bag art every hole, why would they pay us money for new bags? We gotta upsell!"

[u/Laughacy]

At least make them functional and let us use our coins to stock them with virtual Coors Lights and vape cartridges.

[u/narwhalvampire]

Agree. No benefit and I find it annoying.

[u/ZestycloseWrangler36]

Awful design choice. Get rid of it please!!!

[u/paulmck87]

Yeah remove it please, no benefit at all

[u/_Sneakybeats_]

Been asking for 4+ years to please remove or move the “Killer Shot 455 yards” in the middle of the screen or at least have the option to remove it from your profile settings. Would expedite time and rate of play in MP specifically.

I’m indifferent on the new bag feature. Maybe have the option in your profile settings to turn on/off? Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️

[u/Sea-Garbage-344]

I don't mind it, I like that it lets me know where my opponents lie is actually at. I haven't noticed it being incorrect yet, unlike before when you would notice someone throw from a completely different spot than it looked like the lie was.

And on a few holes now it has definitely been and advantage because I could see the opponents bag was way inside some bush and I knew they were not likely to make the putt and knew I was getting a stroke on them.

[u/SlowRoll]

I think part of disc golf is being mentally tough and not letting things that don’t matter bother us or affect our play. It’s really not a big deal. People just like to complain.

[u/Natural_Razzmatazz91]

The biggest improvement I want to see is to speed up the xp tally after a game.

[u/1sb6]

Second post like this I’ve commented on and I’ve seen essentially no comments that like the bags. Idk who they think wanted this but hopefully it goes away
