A new course is awesome, especially one as scenic as Banff Springs. Can't wait to see it with the current gen graphics.

Rotating majors is a big plus for me, but I know most folks will be underwhelmed by the career mode improvements. I'm a little (pleasantly) surprised that they are having Quail Hollow host the PGA in-game, since it's hosting it in 2017.

Of course I would have liked more equipment/apparel, but I do understand the limitations of getting that.

I think this is a decent update, and likely the final one. I am confident in saying that I will enjoy RMPGAT as it is for the next year or so.

YESSS!!!


I've been crying for Banff Springs since release!!


I can't wait to go home and pop this in and check it out. I love that course, and suspect it looks incredibly amazing!


As for the other changes... Props to EA again. They've delivered nicely post launch as promised. Rotating the majors will be a nice addition to Career.

I actually just added this to my collection. Not sure how the game was before any of the patches, but I absolutely love this game. :)

Did we know we were getting another course after Oakmont? I either missed that announcement, or everyone else is just as surprised as I am. I saw the content update on the PS4 this morning, but I just figured it was minor fixes. A new course is fantastic, and it will make the game even better. I know a lot of people wanted the major courses to rotate too, so a lot of people (including myself) will enjoy that.

I've mostly just played this game in play now mode up to this point, and I've only played the career mode a little here and there. With the addition of yet another course, however, I think it's time for me to finally begin my journey through the schedule!

Kudos to the dev team on this little surprise, and I can't wait to play this course this evening!

One of the devs made an announcement on the EA forums in the last week or two that a new course and career mode updates were coming. They couldn't give any specifics because there was supposed to be a blog released about the update.

Oh, okay. I don't visit the official EA Forums much. Either way, it's a nice surprise for sure!

Maybe they'll release one more to bring the total number of courses to 20. The current list is pretty darn good now, but it'd be cool if they released one more big one. Maybe Firestone (WGC Event), Bethpage Black (1st Playoff Event), or Hazeltine (Ryder Cup). I'll be happy with what we have, but something about the number 20 just makes it sound better. Haha

I would love to see more content added (*cough* Erin Hills in time for next year's US Open *cough*), but I feel that this might be it. Especially since it's now on EA Access.
