The OS XBOX 360 Country Club should be even more fun this year with this setting. Cannot wait.

For once, I might actually enjoy myself in something multiplayer!

In years past, the game gave you a general yardage # for each club when you select clubs... It is kind of needed as you get better and add attributes.... so you willl get a general 160 yd 9 iron... from there though, you will have to gauge elevation, wind, how hard, ect. ect.... remember.. This is Simulation...meaning the game at it most difficult level... It will not be for most people.... only the die hards

Bring it!!! Just hope the putting w/no grid works out okay. Wonder if you can select to have the grid on in Simulation? Just still wondering how well gridless will work. Didn't like it that way in 13.

The fact that Handsward commented about it and had similar issues with it we did is encouraging....

As long as we have free roam over the green to inspect the surface direction, I'm happy. I haven't played nexgen TW in a while, but in TW08 PC, this was very common. It would take me a while to putt - as it should.

Cannot wait for this game.

You can make it as hard as you like with many options in sim mode. I'm not a big fan of gridless greens unless they make it much easier to read this year. Last year was too much a guessing game. I believe you will have 3 options with greens-grids with beads showing the severity of slope, grids with no beads and gridless.

Cool, and hopefully that's all still something that can be set for CC's too, I liked playing at the highest level with the grid on.

Im going to assume you have all the customization ability in setting up your CC events... There was a tease in one of the pics about Country Club Tour..... That really has some possibilities....

I only brought it up as ea sometimes removes features from one year to the next.

Shaping up nicely, although I might have one issue.

I'm not so sure we have the graphical fidelity just yet to have gridless putting, PS4/720 yes, right now, no.

I did play 13 sometimes without the grid and it was sometimes tough to get a read, and I'm a top notch green reader "in the real".

Gridless putting led to me giving up strokes not because I can't read greens, but because sometimes you really had no idea because of the graphics. Sometimes when I'm stumped on the course I will use my size 14 Adidas to read the greens too!
