"But societies and multiplayer matchmaking... buckle up!"

Didn’t 2k say a while back there was some mechanic that affects the course designer? But they never elaborated on it. Also interesting only a few have mentioned it.

Seems videos are starting to go up. And the controversy is…consumable golf balls. Jim gem explains a little here and ummm wow is all I got to say at the moment and not in a good way.

So as a designer who always makes his greens pretty fast, if you don't have the greatest golf balls its going to make fast greens impossible? Is that what the issue is?

Sounds like it's also a lack of any competitive online multiplayer, too:

Also...Golf ball roll stat changes the green speed! Yikes...that's the thing that's gonna mess with designers.

multiplayer seems the same except it's called casual and, yeah, i cant find stats/rankings anywhere (not that rankings werent a joke last version anyway, but i enjoyed having my stats to look at and compare/brag to friends)


on the consumable golf balls (yes, i hate it).. but you said it changes green speeds. so what if i'm playing a 1v1 online match and i have looow speed balls but my opponent has high speed balls with way low bounce... are you saying we're hitting into different green speeds that magically changes between my shot and his? if so, that's awfully bad. it makes BAD BAD consumable golf balls infinitely worse.

YES...the greens will play differently for one player than for the other, based on the golf ball used by each player. Same if you're in a society. The green speeds will differ for everyone, based on the golf ball they use.

That's nuts.

so.. my 2 cent..

1) no rankings/stats/penalties for quitting = nearly every round of versus online golf you play there will be a quit.

HATE IT

2) consumable golf balls are just very very bad.. this isnt arcade golf. well, it is now. (it was bad enough with the candy cane putters)

HATE IT


both of those make the game worse.. please, at least add rankings and stats so less ppl quit. even if it's the crappy system from the last version.

Didn’t see none of the above coming. Who comes up with these ideas? They actually think this is what most want? Maybe I’m wrong.
