Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

This game = NHL 15. Looks like next year's version will be the one to get.

Nhl 16 sounds like another botch so hopefully that's not the case.

We're gonna get hosed on DLC. I'm usually ok with games releasing extra content, you either want to buy it or you dont, no one has a gun to your head. But damn 8 real courses on disc when the last-gen had at least 20? Thats ridiculous and is essentially forcing fans of the series to buy something that should have been included. Not to mention we are talking about EA here so it will not be cheap. This game will probably cost upward of $150 for everything.

I'm sure the budget wasn't very big for Rory mcilroy. Remember each course has its own licensing fee. but omission of pebble beach is a head scratcher. You'd think with frostbite that would be one of the courses they'd want to show off.

oh they'll show off Pebble alright, for $7.99

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

Exactly, I've already played those courses a ton.

Let me guess on the DLC courses:

- Celtic Manor
- Els Club
- Crooked Stick
- TPC San Antonio
- Royal Melbourne
- East Lake
- Mission Hills
- Muirfield Village
- TPC Louisiana

blah blah blah.... All the same crap they already have in their system, just converting it over.


No thanks, Rory. I think I may be skipping this version.

Ugh. 9 real courses, half of which have appeared in so many prior versions of this game. What a let down.

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

You know I just thought of something... we're here bitching about how we're getting shafted.... but who confirmed that this was indeed the retail set? For all we know we could be pleasantly surprised come launch day. (Trying to be optimistic, I know we're talking about EA here lol).... Let's see if we can wait and see just really what the launch list of courses is (OR if an EA rep confirms what they are).. THEN we can gripe about it. For all we know, we're griping over nothing here. (And here comes the post bashers.....) haha

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

My bad, you're right. Forgot about 06, but most recent years 15 to 20 to start with not 8-9.

Or PS2 Tiger Woods 2001 which had 3 freaking courses!!! 3!!! Sawgrass, Spy Glass Hill and Pebble Beach.

I'll pass until this is around $30 bucks and I'll buy it at Best Buy with GCU. There is no point in paying 60 bucks for a game with that little amount of content.

Let's hope Tiger Woods 14 gets put on the Backwards Compatible list for Xbox One.

I'd like to think that too, but it all makes sense if you look at how they're marketing it. There's been no mention of the courses, and they haven't shot down the rumors either. The game's less than a month out and they're definitely hiding something. Also goes along with how EA marketed NHL 15. Completely silent on the missing features until the last second.

I would think we don't get an "official" course list til right before release.

[xxStatiKxx]

The fact is we are less than one month away and they aren't saying anything. Just generic twitter responses to anyone who asks about the number of on disc courses. If we were 4 months from release then I would understand but we are too damn close and $60 is a lot of money for "stay tuned for updates". Sounds like typical EA to me. Stay hush on the stuff that's going to cause outrage until release and hope the game sells. We are all sports fans here who have seen this before and we're lying to ourselves if we think EA will be different this time. I hope I'm wrong

You know what suck is, EA buys these exclusive contracts for these sports so no one else can make the official games, and then they pull this.. they've monopolized Madden, and they're monopolizing other sports, and THIS is how they treat their consumer... BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT BECUASE PEOPLE STILL WANT TO PLAY THEIR SPORTS GAMES!!!!! Madden still isn't where it was at on PS2!!!!! NHL 15 is garbage (even with settings WELLLLLLL in favor of Human, the AI still wins 90% of the time), With Rory, (as far as I know) they've got the PGA license exclusively.... You know, the federal gov't wants to put their nose in everyone else business and run the show everywhere else.... how come they won't shoot down these exclusive contract deals when EA takes wayyyyyyy to much advantage of them and royally screws their customers over hard.... it's like an anti trust thing at this point. UGH

Well, let's hope you're right.

But when was the last time EA OVER-delivered on a game?...

UFC with the free DLC.

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

UFC with the free DLC.

Now see, the UFC team realized they screwed over the customer and delivered a half fast (lol) game and made up for it by offering free DLC... let's see if the RM team does the same to an extent. (I'm not expecting ALL DLC to be free, BUT COURSES THAT SHOULD'VE MADE THE FINAL RETAIL CUT BETTER BE FREE!!)

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Course and Golfer List

Wow 9 courses. Just removed my preorder. Few real golfers = lack of realism!
