Re: EA should change their slogan

my major issue is you need the arcady elements to stay competitive in tiger, when the cpu shoots rounds of 12 under or maybe 8 under on a bad day. you need those boost to do that as well. Yes you can have the player shoot realistic rounds on tour pro, i will never deny that. but you cant do the tiger challenge or a season on tour pro and think you have any shot at winning.

I completed Tiger Challenge and won many PGA TOUR events playing TOUR Pro in TW10....

I played all 5 years of single player career and won the Fed Ex Cup in year 4. I completed all of the Tiger Challenges and I played on Tour Pro from the beginning. It was hard and very frustrating at times but it can be done.

Do you remember the challenge at Doral where you had to drive the green? Even with a maxed-out player I could never get closer than 25 yards. Do you remember how you did it?

That was one of the challenges that forced you to use Beginner or Amateur because the only way you could get to the green was to use boost.

I just kept doing it over and over again. I finally got lucky and the only way I did it is the wind was howling from right behind me and i was able to smack the %$#@ out of the ball and I think it rolled on by like 2 inches. Now officially I did go down a level to complete it the first time, but I did keep doing it until I did it on pro tour just for my own sense of accomplishment.

Re: EA should change their slogan

What about the AI in offline career mode? I would like to know about this before I buy it?

TOUR Pro only. Just finished my second Season mode round at Whistling Straits and shot -6 to lead after 2 rounds at -12. Tiger is in second at -10 and KJ Choi is 3rd at -8. So far, so good.

This is the only thing that I care about

CPU golfers scores in OFF-line tour mode...

I read reviews of TW10 saying CPU golfers posted -30's in a 4 round tourny! -30's!

In-fact I didnt even buy TW10 because of it...

hopefully they have realistic scores in TW11.

After the full 4 rounds, what were the CPU scores Divot? In the -10 to -15 range?

(Maybe I'll actually buy TW this year!)

Re: EA should change their slogan

The high scoring was never a fault of the game. The CPU always shot close to what you shot, to make it competitive. The absolute worst they would shoot would be maybe -10 or -12 for a full tourney. But they would only shoot that, if you posted similar numbers. If you just wanted to get easy wins by playing arcadey and shooting -30, then they would, too. So the scores were good...with one exception: the majors. They never shot high enough for the majors, specifically the US Open. The winner was always around -15.

Final scores of my first tournament:

Me: -26
Tiger: -16
Poulter: -11
A Kim: -10
Mickelson: -10
Perry: -10

Next tournament I played with TrueAim in TOUR Pro at Torrey Pines and in the first round I am tied for 3rd with about 15 other golfers at -3 with the leader at -5. Will try to play more later today, but I am still trying to build my CAG as well....hope this helps.

ActuallY i don't believe they use the phrase "it's in the game.." anymore, not for the last few years..

Yeah they do.....
What they seemed to have dropped over the years is the first part "If it's in the game.."

But they still use "It's in the game"

Re: EA should change their slogan

Oh ok, I knew they had dropped it, didn't realize they had kept part of it, I guess it's one of those things you quit noticing after a while..

Perfect! Exactly what I was looking for.

From what you have posted the CPU controlled golfer scores look spot on for realism.

Thanks so much for posting this. Last year I read a couple threads where everyone was saying CPU golfers ave.'ed in the -20's and -30's per round....One guy posted the worst case scenario was Tiger going -42 in a 4 day round.... Yep a -42, lol.

Needless to say, I didnt buy TW10.

But its nice to see what looks like realistic scores in TW11.

When I get paid Thursday I'll most likely pick this game up.

Thanks again for the quick response DivotMaker,

I'm pretty sure they still do. I'm almost positive that it comes up when I load FIFA 10.

Re: EA should change their slogan

yeah someone said they changed it from "If it's in the game, it's in the game" to just "It's in the game"

Which should be changed because stuff isn't in the game. Like dreadlocks/long hair are not in NCAA.
