PGA 2K25 Difficulty Settings

[northmen24]

I have come up with some difficulty settings that have made the game more enjoyable for me. I put these together after a lot of testing different combinations to make sure it was as realistic and playable as possible. These definitely won't be for everyone. but they are not supposed to be. The options are there for a reason and there are so many things you can change so you enjoy the game.

Mine aren’t too far off. I use 3 click and I turned the rhythm setting off. My difficulty multiplier is at 1.43 I think.

I agree that scout cam being off is a big one. I only used the yardage book.

Re: PGA 2K25 Difficulty Settings

I have a complete update in the first post. After extensive testing and trying all different combinations of settings I have come up with some difficulty settings that are personally giving be a perfect and realistic feel to the game. It's not going to be for everyone for sure. And I am sure people will disagree with some of them. But that is why there is all these different options. These really make you think about your shot and pay attention to how the wind is effecting your shots early on because wind speed is turned off and only shows direction.

If you are having a hard time with the swing system like I was then try them out.

I usually just play whatever the default pro difficulty is. I accidentally clicked on the masters difficulty for the ranked tours. That was different. Ended up shooting Even par.

Was getting too easy on perfect swing.

Re: PGA 2K25 Difficulty Settings

I pretty much have the same exact settings. Though it’s killing me that there isn’t a higher view broadcast cam and the behind the green cameras are locked to replays only.

Re: PGA 2K25 Difficulty Settings

Yeah? Are you liking them. What changes do you have that I don't? The cameras in general aren't great. But the gameplay makes up for it.
