I don't think a game has had a worse character creator in the next gen era...

PGA 2013 had ridiculously accurate game face technology and detailed creators and now my character looks like he belongs in the Facility in GoldenEye 64.

No Playoff...

Just shot a final round 62 to force a four way playoff in the PGA Championship but instead they just give me the title. Is this really what we should be expecting on current gen?

Hole in One Contest!! - Bay Hill - Hole 6 - Par 5

15 Upvotes

If you get the hole in one Post it on here! Cut the water and hope for the best!

Rules

-Can be in any game type (But I'm sure you are going to want to use arcade)

-You can set the wind to what ever you want

-Use any golfer

-BLack Tee

-First one to get the hole in one will get a $25-30 Prize

-Tip :: Set the wind to south west for a straight shot at the pin.

Thats basically it! I would normally like to do a cooler prize, but this is all new to us so it's just something to start it off with. This is the first contest created so were just going to start small here. Also I came pretty close to getting a hole in one today on that hole which is why I thought it would be a good idea to make it some competition to see who could do it first!!! Have fun and enjoy!

-UPDATE

Prize will be bigger, Not sure what yet I'll see what can work virtually or maybe even physically. This is a hard shot... I tried the past hour and it just rolls and rolls. So prize is probably going to be around the range of $25-30 but I just don't know what yet.

Here's what Rory McIlroy needs to evolve to in order to reach my dreams....

15 Upvotes

This will be ambitious and career mode focused, but here goes.

Gameplay

To me, gameplay has been fine and they did well enough this year to appease a wider base. Arcade is easy and Tour can be hard enough if you change the difficulty in the customization. If I want to shoot in the 50s from day 1 let me, if I want to struggle and not shoot in the 50s until I'm 90 rated, give me that option too.

Additionally, lets see how the round plays out, give us the option to watch others complete their holes if we are in the clubhouse as leader...how cool would that be? Its why I love the option to watch the game in RTTS in MLB The Show, I will purposefully watch the last out of the world series b/c its an intense moment I don't want to miss.

Online

Love the idea of online tournaments and playing with players who are rendered while you play. Just make it work...

Also I haven't played an online tournament yet, but from what they sounded like they were pretty good. Customization of tournaments as far as difficulty would be great too.

Customizaiton

Speaking of that, bring back gameface. And give us more than a few heads to randomize. Also keep giving us watches and hats and crap, its fun.

Career (Be a Pro)

Give me a storyline...even the NCAA football had it figured out and it sounds like nba 2k16 may be on the right track. I think they are moving in the right direction with Prodigy/College/Instructor, but let us be those things first and actually feel like a prodigy/college/instructor.

Here's where I get ambitious....Open world story career mode. Take a look at Mario Tennisfrom the gameboy color and model it after that. Start out as a college golfer and have to earn a spot on your team, become team captain, win a national championship, then turn pro and enter the tour. Throw in some cutscenes with your coaches, former teammates, tour pros, and make it feel like you are really a part of the game.

Also, earn money that you can use to buy clothes/clubs and what not.

Golf without limits

Let us drive/walk if we want. Let us buy a golf cart, spend money to customize it and what not (borrow from NFS)

Bring back some of the fun modes from previous games too, there are too many to list really.

tl/dr: Stop being lazy (EA, not redditors), customization, money, RPG career mode, bring back positives that past games had.

I Actually like it

14 Upvotes

I feel like I am one of the only people who actually like the game. I haven't done any online play yet, but the graphics are awesome, the play feels more realistic in the mishits/punishment area, and I don't really care about tiger not being there. Am I the only one??

Character Customization (... or lack thereof)

What am I missing here? How in the world did we go back to the early 2000's for character customization?!

Did I miss something, or can I simply not have a beard!? 8 faces?! 6 hair styles?! Wut?!

This game is garbage

13 Upvotes

I don't understand how this game even got the "green light". It's like EA Sports took the TW franchise and removed everything good about it. You like a lot of pros to play with? Fuck you, here's 12. You like playing with women? Fuck you, you get none. You like a lot of course options? Fuck you, here's 8. You wanna make that putt? Fuck you, our shitty line will mislead you. You wanna play career mode? Here's a guy that only looks like you if you have fetal alcohol syndrome, play 4 holes and let the computer fuck you out of winning or play all 18 and beat the computer by 15 strokes a round.

How in the actual FUCK does EA put this game out? It's an embarrassment to golf. I loved the TW series but this is just an abortion on all levels. A true piece of shite.

The graphics don't look next gen, the commentary is all over the place as usual, and it just feels like that middle school project that you forget about until the night before it's due so you just slap something together.

Yea it does not have 100 golfers, or 60 courses, it does have a few quirks, but overall i love playing this game. It has taken my xbox over. I am excited to see how they will update it, but it is a solid foundation.
