Newest info I've seen is that the early access could drop in about 2-3 weeks.

Thank you is the early access closed like the beta or is it available for more people, also do you think that it will be for consoles.

Re: The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

I have a question about the course creator, will there be an option to add other types of hazards besides water. For instance, my home course that I want to create has patches of tall straw grass. Is there an option for that?

Early access is steams way of developers offering alpha and beta builds to consumers to help find bugs or just enjoy it as it goes on. You pay for the game as normal and get every update including final game as you already paid, just get access now rather than later. I love the program personally.

It's only for steam so only PC. Consoles probably won't see anything until actual release date.

So if early access is.. lets say April 15...when would I be e pecting console release? Id love it if it would come out May 6th or May 13th. I could snag mlb and golf in the same trip!

I expect that you have to have a powerful PC or a very good laptop to be able to play on steam, would you know the min requirements for a laptop ?

Re: The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

I don't pay attention to any requirements as I have a gaming desktop and laptop that can run pretty much anything. If the laptop can't, my desktop will. Lol

I would assume once it's optimized, low wouldn't require too much as they'd want to get it to as many people as possible.

Bluengold, sure would like to see new gameplay videos of most recent build. Also, have you tried SmokinJo's no green gird challenge at Diamond Head?

Maybe you could record that round and post on youtube? As always, thanks for sharing info with us non-beta testers (step children)

Re: The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

I would like to add this:

Whatever country club we do, TOUR, tournament, whatever...

We need to have aids OFF as much as possible BUT at the same time:

If guys can only play on LOW settings, they will be disadvantaged at reading greens while my 1920x1080 resolution would allow better shading and breaks.

Since this is cross platform, consoles won't have to worry, but I would advise posting a warning for lower resolution players.

With the aids on, I think we will see -18 scoring, people will always figure out how much break it is cause of the arrows going slow or fast, without it, much more challenge and practice required.

I completely agree!

Re: The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

I'll be speaking with Anthony Kyne from the development team at the top of the hour. Happy to add some questions to my list if you have any you would like to get answered!

[TheBleedingRed21]

Re: The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

#1 question from me if you care..

Will they add more grass options/colors to the editor to differ the courses?

#2

Any estimate if we can get multiple pin locations?

#3

Any plans for 27 hole courses with options to pick what 2 9 to play?

#4

Been asked around community, but do they plan to have a true aim option? Where it does not zoom in and you have to aim from golfer's perspective?

Actually I literally just got done playing Diamond Head with no green grid on, and shot +3(should have been +1) I really enjoy the extra challenge, as it slows the game down and forces you to think. I will try to get another video up tonight, but the last couple of attempts have resulted in corrupted files -
