    yep you can run one by but again its not nearly as penal as last year, thusly its not nearly as gratifying for getting the speed right either , probably people complaining that putting was too touchy last year, i personally found it gratifying for placing the proper stroke on the putt , is what it is i guess

      how are the ball physics?? also are the sounds when hittting crisp iron shots improved?? in the past it sounded clunky... Hopefully actual divots will be taken when hitting irons. i really want to buy this game but im on the fence.

        No offense man but who cares about divots? That's such a small detail..... yes we have it in real life but honestly as soon as you hit the ball, you're watching your ball instead of looking at the ground for a divot....

          When playing on simulation, the overall feel is terrible. Presentation is terrible in Quickplay. The cameras are just terrible. Driving the ball feels disjointed. Putting is easy, you don't get a good view of what you are doing.

          I like zoom to aim being off, but I want to be able to zoom to a good overhead view like TrueAim did in TW 11 that shows you yardage markers and where hazards are. Then, after getting a lay of the land, aiming from the same view they use in TW 14. So yeah, making me hit blind makes it harder, but it doesn't make it interesting.

          So I dropped to Tour Pro, and got yardage markers back, but I don't like that to get them back I have to enable zoom to aim. And yeah, I could house rule it to get what I want, but that is clunky. But it makes it impossible to set up setting for a CC that represent the kind of balance in information and challenge that woud make the game better.

          Overall, the game is not terrible, but the lackluster cameras and dorked Sim mode means this is not a full price game for me. I imagine
          i will pick it up at some point. I may also just go back to TW 11.

            Things I would change:


            Yardage marks
            Green speed
            Making your backswing (putting AND with irons, wedges, etc) dependent on user input, NOT the aiming marker.

            If you think about it, the backswing thing sucks with SIM difficulty because you can't see where your aiming, which I have no problem with. If it was my game, I would make it so there is an arrow displaying the direction you're going to hit the ball at, and you have to judge the backswing yourself.

              Has anybody gotten deep into career mode yet? I'm asking this because there is one poster on the EA boards who has played 2 tourneys in his first PGA season and has had the following occur.

              1. 1st tourney, his CAG finished at -10 and Mickelson finished at -12 and his CAG was declared the winner of the tourney.

              2. 2nd tourney, he ends up at -14 but Bradley, who was the 3rd round leader, is on the 5th or 6th hole at -14. As soon as his CAG finished up his final putt to be -14, the game directly goes to a playoff even though Bradley wasn't suppose to be finished yet and no simming to the final 4th round scores had occurred.

              His CAG plays 2 playoff holes and apparently wins but no indication is ever given about how Bradley did on the playoff holes. Once the playoff was finished, the game goes back in time and starts simulating the 4th round and Bradley's score shows -16 at the end of the 4th round and he is awarded the win. It's as if the playoff never happened and it shouldn't have happened in the 1st place anyways because Bradley's score was -16 to begun with.



              Career mode appears to be a big mess so you may have to expect the worst if nonsensical things start happening if you're near the top of the leaderboard. Its obvious things were not tested properly ......yet again. It's just unbelievable a game gets released in this condition.

                The game is continuously giving me a run for my money on Default Simulation. Currently I'm on the Web.Com Tour and in my first tournament I missed the cut by 3 strokes. It was a true grind. I think what is shocking me the most is with my current Level/settings last year I would have been tearing things up. Kudos EA.

                The only issue I have is the Putting camera. I need to be in back of my Putts so I can read the breaks???? Don't know who thought this was a brilliant idea.

                Here's a look at my Toon/Settings

                    On at least 4 holes when I went to putt a stat banner showed up on the screen and it obscure my putting view and it stayed there until I ended the hole. Needless to say this made it impossible to put as I could see the lower half of my guy, his putter or the meter.

                    Didn't happen in any of the sim rounds I played.
                    yea that happened in the demo for me, just hit start and resume to get rid of it, see if that works

                      Newbie question, haven't played TW since 09 edition. Have a PS3 and a XBOX (without Paid Live Subscription). Want to join a country club (hear it is an awesome feature) but also want to "Swing" through the game since I have never tried it rather than use a controller. I have Kinect but not move. My choice is buy PS3 and join cc for free due to no online subscription but have to buy the Move controller or buy it for XBOX and buy the Live subscription. So.... Long story short:

                      1 preferred system and why?
                      2 in TW 14 with Kinect or Move controller are you looking down the fairway as you swing or are you perpendicular to the fairway (parallel to the tv)?
                      3 is Move/Kinect enjoyable for TW games?

                      Thanks.

                        Finally shot a good round on simulation(-4) at Royal Troon. It took me 5 rounds, but I am starting to get in the groove and enjoying the challenge this year -

                          Well just missed my 2nd cut on the Web.Com Tour. Shot a +17. Looks like I'm not going to the PGA Tour anytime soon

                            Gameface is hit or miss. I hope EA really steps it up with GameFace come next gen consoles. There is huge potential with this feature. At least my Bill Murray's turned out ok.

                              Is Gameface working with the Early Access? I thought I read somewhere that it was not.
