EA Tim has said that he thinks "3 Click" is harder than "Tour" - Crazy weird if true

Victory for the 3-click holdouts!!!!

Anyone know if you can have 2 players local and still play online with someone else? If so how? I downloaded the game but don't seem to see that option.

Just saw on someone's stream that you can customize the swing difficulty and by default on Tour difficulty, the swing difficulty is set to 'normal'. If that makes any sense.

So again, good news for offline, but I really hope they crank up the difficulty of the Tour mode swing online soon after release.

When you putt, the ball comes of the club like a canon. There seems to be no touch like tgc

My first round was +7 at Sawgrass with Martin Kymer.

Overall, I like the game.
Graphics, announcing, penal rough, ball drop are all good

I like the pro camera, but I can't see the ball in the air.

Heard a Baba Booey as I started my career on the Web.com tour. Lol

Damn!! I wish I saw this earlier. I was busy at work today. Then after work I hit up Golftown to check out some new Irons. Ended up buying a new set of Taylormade irons, came home, yanked off all the stickers and polished them up and put them into the bag.

Wish I had known this was up early, I woudl have started the download. I don't think I'll get to check it out tonight now, damn slow internet!

I've been home from work for 45 minutes and I'm downloading now... the early reports are pretty depressing overall. I'm still going to give it a full go. Any estimates on the XBox One version's resolution and frame rates yet?

I think those that played the golf club need to not compare this game to that, even the awesome tiger woods 14 is nothing like the golf club.

Can you play a round with no commentators and gallery? That's one thing I enjoyed about tw14 and TGC it's just you and the course. I love the golf channel integration but hoping there's a no tv style or tournament presentation too.

So what exactly is the Frostbite engine supposed to do for this game again?

Anyone else getting a hitch delay on putting follow through? Its stutters.
Makes putting feel out of my control


also is there anywhere to turn off the green/red feedback meter? Have not found where to turn it off yet




Edit: wait what??? No weather settings in play now games? Just morning noon or evening? Is there no rain or cloud setting?

....hmmm

That sounds strangely familiar...

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Trial Available Now on EA Access, Post Your Impressions

Beautiful game and the full swing mechanic and all main swings are executed very well with tour mode advanced using length of backswing and speed of follow through to determine your shop distance... but the putting...


my god it's like it is a different game. You can not even take the putter back past what the predetermined distance marker is set for. It's not intuitive at all. like an easy mode for putting.. TGC does putting much more organically.




And that stupid green ball always trying to tell me how to swing, please go away and let me watch my golfers swing only

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Trial Available Now on EA Access, Post Your Impressions

I enjoyed the game. Played a few rounds. It's not perfect, nor is it terrible either. I actually didn't mind fantasy courses. They bring a new dynamic to the game. Obviously I'd rather play real courses. Game looks great. My real gripe is with the swinging. I've only tried Tour difficulty with the left stick swing meter and even when I hit it left or right, the ball didn't move much that way. I'll try the 3 click meter and see if that is better for accuracy. It's no fun hitting a terrible shot and see it dead center of the fairway. I really hope Augusta somehow makes it into the game, even though it probably won't. Haven't tried the Tour Pro career mode yet. Not the perfect game, but for the first EA Sports iteration of the game on the new generation of consoles, it's not that bad. I'm happy with it.

Anything but depressed here....still way too early to determine anything....and the game is drop dead gorgeous on Xbox. frame rates are buttery smooth here.
