    Not seeing it so far. Played one round in CM in the Web.com Q-School with fast greens and they played like I expected. Greens are playing faster than the demo from what I can see. However, that is certainly not a representative sample......if I see that Fast greens are playing slow, I'll report it to the Devs and would appreciate anyone here sending me a PM if you see this and note the course and difficulty being played and as much other detail you can provide.

    Thanks in advance,

      Well I just shot an 82 at Q school with my Level 34 Golfer.

      This game almost forces you to learn the course layout on Sim mode. This game has exceeded my expectations by a large margin

        Most rounds I am cruising along at -2 to +2 and then I hit a shot and it ends up in a water hazard I didn't know was there (because I didn't do the flyby) or that I had no idea I could reach.

        I didn't think this would be an issue for me but man it is bothering me. I was -3 with 2 holes to go in the sim 5 hole tourney and I hit my drive dead to nuts down the middle and the ball rolled through the fairway into the water. Ended up even for the whole thing but I had no idea that water was in play, very frustrating...

        I'll also respectfully disagree that automatic ball drops have been improved.
        this was my problem with the demo. Its not a realistic simulation because pros have all this info at their disposal.

          Well, I haven't played/bought a golf game since mid 2000s. I've n joyed this game soo much.

          I started with an online 4 player game, I hated watching every player hit their ball, felt like a match would take 7.8 hours, luckily something happened and it got disconnected on the 2nd hole. One other thing, I couldn't see where they hit their ball, stupid if that's the case.

          So, I created my own player, on normal difficulty, I played my first tourney and finished with a +13 (1 round) then a +6 (1 round), during my second tournament, I found the putt preview....wow, just wow. My third tourney I finished with a -8 (4 rounds)and won then my second tourney with a -16 (4 rounds. Debating on using it (putt preview), feels cheap.

          My guy started out hitting ~270 off the tee, now he's up to 285

          Actually thinking about buying this game.

          As for the guy complaining about only getting only one putt preview, come one really? Would you want the game to go ahead and sink it for you, I'm terrible and it makes putting easy....unless he's on difficult with no lines on the green

            Way slower greens compared to 13. On Tournament coditions the greens are like hitting in sand. Needs to be patched ASAP!!!

              Thanks. Does a bunch of apparel start unlocking, or does it usually take awhile?

              I have the EA Season ticket, figured I'd try this game out. I'm liking it to the point to where I think it might be a purchase for me. Seems like a very deep game.

              I also like online setups where you can just play your rounds, then it ranks it against other players while not playing simultaneously like Hot Shots on the vita.

                Wow thanks divot and sooner, not encouraging news on the green speed. That is really frustrating, especially being that they nerfed the putting for 14 anyway. I really hope there is an outcry and the greens play fast where they are supposed to be fast.

                Everything else has me pretty stoked, except the green speed, and no practice swing head to head, sounds the camera on putting could be a pain also. Hope they address these issue, I know they wont put the practice swing, but really hoping for the other 2 to be fixed.

                  I think I've played about 360+ holes already and my putting average is 1.34 on sim difficulty. I sucked at putting in 13, I thought maybe I just got better but I think you may be right.

                    There are a few items that open with each level. Like 7 or so. Typically I'm leveling up after each round at least at the lower levels starting out.

                      Well I just noticed something rather large in terms of single player. I have my career set up for 4 rounds with cuts. My last 2 tournaments I have shot the score needed to make the cut or less and still have been cut.

                      Last tournament I shot a +4 after 2 rounds and was cut but guys made the cut with +6 and +7 and it even said on the screen the current cut was +4.

                      Anyone else seeing this issue? If this is indeed a bug that pretty much stops me from buying the game.

                        yea this year the putt length is contingent on the aiming marker, not the length of the swing, last year you could really blaze one by with too big of a swing like real life, this year they nerfed that it is way less and penal this year, also it is way less realistic unfortunately

                          I have decided, while I like simulation mode, it becomes unrealistic at times because they made it so hard. I think a mixture between tournament and simulation fits me better. I also have to keep the ball strike marker to sticky otherwise I am not even close on some shots.

                          Still shot freaking +12 last night and could not do ANYTHING.

                            Last year even though a cut line would say +2, that +2 score would still result with you being cut so you would have to score +1 or better. You said that the +4 resulted in you being cut, what was the other score you posted that got you cut, was it right on the cut line again or a few shots below?

                            As for the AI golfers still making it, that may have been happening last year as well, never really paid attention to that. If you are posting scores several shots under the cut line and still getting cut then that's a pretty big bug and I'll post that on the EA boards. They have a thread now open regarding the various glitches that have been found so they can document them easier and try and include it in a patch.

                              The tournament speed greens are slower than TW13? That certainly is troubling. The green speeds were perfect on TW12 in my opinion (heck, even the Augusta greens keepers said that were very true to the real course).

                                Not entirely, as putting tempo and putterhead speed do impact your results as I have blown a few by the hole significantly....
