Why Aren't (or are they?) These Features in RM?

[Milkmoney11]

I've had about a 7 year layoff from EA Golf games. I'm enjoying RM but just noticed some of the features I used to enjoy dating as far back to Genesys are lacking. Am I just missing them? If not, it's disappointing they don't have these.

1) You used to be able to watch the simulated golfer. Example would be I'm in the final pairing on final day of tournament and I can see Speith's shots...not just his score. Kind of takes away from any excitement when I hit a birdie on 18 to tie only to find out he hit one too to win but I don't know until the leaderboard comes up.

2) The overhead map doesn't show the flight path of your completed shots on the hole.

3) A quick way to see your scorecard, or even just a showing of the score card as it goes to the next hole.

4) An instant replay option. I'm amazed this isn't in there. Am I just missing it?? I don't know how many times I hit an amazing shot (or a terrible one) that I want to see again but it's just lost in time.

If anyone knows if I'm just missing these features please enlighten me as to how to get to them.

my theory is that they pushed out a stripped down version of the game so they could focus on the "no load time" and the great visuals. this isn't a yearly title, so they will be giving us (hopefully) lots of DLC and updates that will add courses, features & maybe even more golfers.

Wow, this is kind of like a guy that falls into a coma for 20 years, and wakes up and sees all the changes in the world.


You go 7 years or so without buying a golf title, and like many of us, figure this is the right time to purchase the new title on the next gen system. There will be plenty of features, great graphics, the ability to play the game any way you want. It would be "golf without limits."


I have been complaining that this is lacking features from the PS2 days, but you mentioned even the Genesis? Wow, talk about going backwards.


If NASA worked with this theory, we would have worked our back from the space shuttles to rockets, to giant sling shots.

Okay we get it. Posting the same complaint in three different threads is quite sufficient and no longer necessary. Thanks.
