Everybody's Golf Arrives on August 29 For PlayStation 4 - Post Impressions

It was fine for me, but once I kind of "finished" the game (and I haven't finally done it yet) it has kind of knocked me off the deep-end there.

I would play it at least a few times a week if they had weekly international tournaments, but it appears they are monthly.

I only engaged in the gem hunting once, and that was enough to demonstrate to me that it wasn't worth it. It's regrettable that the the grinding or pay to win element is so strongly now a part of this game.

I got so little out of these tournaments... I thought the winning scores in most of The Golf Club 2's Official tournaments were ridiculous, but the scores I see in Everybody's Golf's tournaments don't look like a sport I'm familiar with.

I think gem-hunting would have been more fun if you earned them based on good online rounds. When I found out that you can just enter a course and "get them," they didn't seem as great anymore.

Yup the "gem hunting" should've been part of the actual core golf gameplay... maybe you get gems for winning a tournament or winning a round of golf instead of winning coins. Making gems tied to non-golfing activities such as running around a golf course was a ridiculous decision and I'm sure there are lots of folks like me who gave up on the game due to such idiotic game design choices.

It's a shame really as the game is pretty good overall and quite addictive. It's just that when you reach higher levels and have to start gem hunting when you realize the game may not be so great after all.

I still play just about every day. I love the game, but I do wish some things were fleshed out a bit more. Custom tournaments - online and offline - would be nice.

I "beat" the game a few weeks ago, but I'm still playing challenge tournaments to complete the gallery. But it seems like the DLC courses are worthless offline since all you can do is a solo round, unless I'm missing something. It'd be nice to set up my own tour or tournament offline to utilize them.

New 1.13 update has a new Pine Hills course in the store.

Sadly, every time I try and play the game it hangs on the screen where it tries to retrieve my PSN purchases, says that it fails to do so.

Once they resolve things on their end, I really wish they could find a way to let us play our bonus courses as a part of the tour. I don't see why they can't have them show up there. Otherwise you're only really playing them online..

Apparently you can now create Turf War game rooms as well. So when this starts working, ya'll let me know and I'd love to play with some of you!

It gets stuck on the same part for me. I remember there being a message for server maintenance, so hopefully that’s all it is.

Edit: I can get into the game now.
