The Golf Club Looking to Add Retainer Walls to Courses, Changes to Handicap System


The Golf Club may be looking into adding retaining walls to its golf course creator suite, amongst other new additions in the works for the game. Two potential huge new features, out of bounds and dropped balls are being investigated as well alongside development on the new Season Mode which we already knew about.

Quote:
"We play a lot of the community created courses and are always amazed at the imagination shown by designers when it comes to creating the desired look for your courses. Benches for steps, bridges for retaining walls, tree stumps for walls, etc. This week, Jim has taken a quick look at creating some of these things for you. They’re looking really good, so I’m very excited to see your creations with these new objects. And a quick reminder that not everyone on the team codes, thus, when you see something like rain being investigated it doesn’t mean time is being taken away from some other ‘essential’ addition or ‘must fix’ area of the game."

Also on the docket are possible changes to the Handicap system in the game:

Quote:
"With the Handicap system in place we have found that some of tournaments on the easier courses skew a little in favour of the weaker players. We’re reviewing all the data regularly and as much as we want to stay true to the real life system we do understand that video game golf is a little different to real life golf. We are going to investigate a little and see what tweaks we can make to the base formulas to even the playing field a little more."
