Hmm, ... I hope you are wrong on that comment about elevation. Or, like Seymour said that would sure be another huge arcade-like feature that would be a real dumbing down of the game, esp on the hardest level. I find it hard to believe that even EA would make elevation not relevant through use of the zoomed aiming. That's a new game feature that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere but here by you. You sure you don't have to move your zoomed landing area beyond the hole to take into account an uphill elevation shot? Typically, the more uphill elevation, the more you have to take into account elevation by moving your zoomed landing area further past the hole? You're sure that no matter the elevation change, you just put your zoomed aimed landing area on the flag?
What we do need here is accurate and objective info, not telling someone to not get the game and "see ya next year."
