    I saw some hitching when shadows appeared with ball rolling and when camera was panning on a green

    Hard to know what to make from a stream though

    Final judgement on that will have to be in our own hands on our own PCs/Consoles I think

      Are we supposed to get a course playthrough trailer today or was this what they were referring to?

        They definitely cleaned up a lot of stuff from previous videos, even if some quirks remain.

I thought that the swing animations looked fine, the different swing animation that the dev was using on his created player was interesting it actually looked smoother. Club sounds on the driver were great, some of the iron sounds were a little odd though. Difficulty was definitely my biggest problem with the play through, it was way too easy. At least the dev said you can make it way more difficult, so I can’t wait to tweak it to my preference.
          Overall I was pretty impressed, the 4th can’t come soon enough!
          This is exactly what I saw and felt. I am excited, but I also agree with scagwi that after 9 years this is still a bit underwhelming. It's really going to come down to being able to carve out a realistic experience, difficulty wise, in Sim mode to make this interesting and not too easy.

          Just turning the grid off is not an option for me to make the game "harder", if every other shot up to the green is just point and swing. We need to be punished for bad stick movement. Either these guys are just awesome, shooting 7 under on 9 holes, or this is just waaaay too easy, at least in Pro.

            Idk looked like a play through to me. Maybe I’m just blind.

              If the difficulty and challenge isn't there the eye candy will soon lose its lustre.

                Some good, some bad. Won't be able to really tell anything until I get my hands on it. Game does look way too easy on Pro. I have no doubt we can make this harder, I'm just hoping "harder" is actually harder and not just random like Rory.

                  Pros:
                  Courses and ambient environment are fantastic.

                  Seems like the online system works well. (this probably was closed server tho)

                  The gear selection is fun and varied, albeit a party trick.

                  Love the shot variety.


                  Cons:
                  Player models look last-gen.

                  Club/Swing sounds are all over the place

                  Difficulty looks really bad. MAKE GOLF CHALLENGING.

                  Presentation is lacking in post-shot, etc. It feels like Rory. I thought we'd see a fresh take on this... the quiet stale focus on the last-gen player models is tired.
                  HE'S GOT ONE FLAP DOWN!

                    Well they were playing on Pro, so just looking at this chart shows that they weren’t even close to playing an actual difficult setting for swing and putting difficulty so that gives me some hope at least

                      To me gameplay was just ok for that video. Playing on pro made the game look pretty easy which i expected. The main things i didnt like was how slow the swings are and the putting line aid which i know you can probably turn off. I really wish we got some gameplay on a much harder difficulty though, because it could have shined a different light on the game. Oh well. Overall not bad but not great for a first gameplay video, we’ll see more this weekend.

                      Also side note: when the dev started using his created player…did that look like he was using Dechambeau’s swing or am i crazy?

                        Good catch
                        What happened?

                        The models don't look very impressive at all.
                        Maybe that got toned down to help with performance?

                            suppose we can have a custom setting as well? turning on/off which we would like?

                              Wouldn’t be surprised if they started doing the captures long before LIV was a thing so very possible it was Bryson’s swing and that others will be available too

                                Yeah, turning on one of the defaults puts those settings in, then you can toggle whatever you want on/off
