Yup, new course and Oakmont is one of the best. Also been playing Bloodborne and absolutely love it. I can see why it won so many GOTY awards.

Definitely can't wait to play Oakmont!

Re: Oakmont Country Club Available Now For Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR

EA Sports really did a bang up job with Oakmont. It's easily the most faithful rendition I've seen of the course yet! I really love seeing the cars going down the highway. I tried to get a turn-based multiplay game going online, to see if by some off chance they'd fixed the audio for it. I couldn't get a bite in a half hour, so I gave up.

I wish I was feeling this game because I really like the looks of it and the dynamic environment in which it's played. The gameplay is challenging, but for some reason I'm just not feeling a proportional sense of the swing. I also find the presentation options lacking, particularly the "Pro View" option, which in theory should work for me and deliver something close to The Golf Club's Non-Follow-Cam, with the option to scroll to the ball on demand. The problem is, they haven't done anything to highlight the ball or sort of zoom on it a bit, like Tiger Woods True Aim views did in TW-11 through 13.

All I have to say is good luck putting without the green grid. Although it was my first round ever on the course I shot a +12. I'm usually around par.

Oakmont is amazing, and much more engaging to me than it was on TW14. Love the freeway and all of the details.

... same here

Looks a little bit strange on this very open course sometimes, when you are playing on your hole with the crowd all around, but there is noone on the grandstands on the other holes around.
Moreover would be great to see other virtual (AI) players and spectators all over the course and playing on other holes, too.

btw, wasn't there a bell sounding around hole 10 in TW14?
Do not hear it in this release anymore...

Re: Oakmont Country Club Available Now For Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR

Glad to hear it's looking/playing good. I'm going to have to try and get a round in tonight. I chose to play the Porsche pack in F6 while waiting for the Division to install rather than a round of golf. I should have done the opposite.

Re: Oakmont Country Club Available Now For Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR

Played a round at Oakmont last night. Custom settings (based on Tour swing), Fast conditions, Sunday pins, green grid w/beads on, 3-5 MPH winds. Shot +4 with Jordan Spieth.

The greens are very fast and most putts have tremendous breaks to them. I won't go so far as to call them old-fashioned carnival pin placements, but putting at Oakmont is not for the faint of heart - and I suppose that's how it should be.

The look of the course is great. The moving traffic on the Pennsylvania Turnpike adds a layer of immersion not seen on many video game golf courses.

It's a great addition to the game, and provides a tough test.
