The Golf Club's second feature update has been submitted and should be up by Christmas for gamers anxiously awaiting the new content. The new update features a new Handicap system as well as new content for the course creator.
We are really, really happy with where the Handicap system is at. It is going to open up the game and bring the excellent Tournament system much more to the fore. Tournaments are fantastic when you can play against players of a similar skill level to your own but they have shown to be less appealing when you are faced with a leaderboard that you just can’t compete with. Handicaps will change all that. It is still possible to create and play in tournaments where Handicaps are ignored but we are confident that most people will want to play in Handicap adjusted competitions.
Coming up next for the game will be a career mode, which is expected to arrive in the Spring. As The Golf Club continues to improve, it's really amazing how far the game has come even since our original review of the title back in the fall. A third content update could arrive before the career mode update in the Spring, but the folks at HB Studios haven't made a solid commitment to that yet.
