Hi - just following up on a couple of the earlier questions. Sharing courses and playing games across PS4 and XB1 is technically possible, however there are other considerations which we're still figuring out, things like guidelines we have with Sony and MS as well as design considerations, so this is still being worked out.
I think someone mentioned 'couch play'. The game supports four people in this mode

I hope this can be worked out on both cases; it would be like doubling the userbase for courses and competitive play options. HB Studios will have pulled a major coup in the realm of cross-platform gaming if you can make this happen!

I too am hoping that HB Studios can work this out.

I also envision using the PC version of the game with the mouse and keyboard to develop courses and being able to share to PS4 and Xbone users.

Yes, excellent point! If the game is truly fully course sharable and ghost mode playable across platforms, it will guarantee two unit sales in my case. I would most likely prefer designing on the PC, but playing on my (as yet to be determined) next-gen console

Given that it's listed as being self published, I'd say it's most likely going to be digital only.

I'm in. Ive been looking for a good golf game since the last HSG came out.

Re: HB Studios golf game

If the arcadely looking crap could be turned off and you can play the game by "feel", I'm in. Too many sports games relying on meters and lines and indicators.

For "virgin" golfers like myself, though, these help me a lot. An option to turn off for the expert golf gamers would be fine by me as well, however.

I've wanted a course creator my whole life! And no, as much as I loved Sim Golf, that don't count. Man now I wanna play Sim Golf!

The Jack Nicklaus series on PC and the Sierra golf franchise (also PC) back in the day had very robust course creators, with a very active community of talented course designers. Some of the real-life recreations of courses were bordering on retail quality. If we could get something like that again, with modern graphical and physics capabilities, that could be something wonderful for golf gamers.

I wouldn't bank on this...not because I don't have faith that HB wants to try to get it done, but MS and Sony are like Apple and Google right now (aka bitter rivals that won't cooperate under any circumstances). They don't care about the best experience for gamers, otherwise someone else would have already figured out how to do cross-platform gaming. But best of luck anyway!

For me, I'm primarily interested in the solo gameplay features. As long as the bones of the game are solid, that's good enough for me.

[jmaj315]

can you move the holes? And by that I mean, Can you spread the holes out so they aren't so close to each other?
and also, is it possible to play out of the wrong fairway? sometimes i shank it :P

With the random course generator this is effectively the Diablo of golf games, lol...can't wait!!

It's definitely the thing that has me the most interested. I've played many procedurally generated games now, but nothing on this scale. Can't even imagine the algorithms that would go into programming something like that.
