    Re: The Golf Club Early Access Available Now on Steam For $29.99 - Post Your Impressi

    I have the specs to play this game but I don't have an HD monitor. Would it be a mistake to buy this game without one? I've never been a PC gamer.

      How are y'all going about predicting shot distances? I know the game gives you the "on the fly distance", but I can't help, but think its off. I just hit multiple irons off the tee multiple times with different distances each time. For example, I hit a 5 iron off the tee around 208 w/ 1mph wind at my back. The same hole, same wind, same club, same exact shot (strength and line) went 190. Is there something I'm missing?

        Greatly depends on your lie and I think how straight your swing line is plays a role.

          Let me get this straight; you're comparing your 5 iron tee shot distance to a 5 iron shot from the fairway?

            Does your PC have an HDMI output? If so, you could connect to an HDTV. The lowest res that I'd say would be acceptable for this game would be 1280 x 720 (widescreen), or 1024 x 768, on a an older 4:3 monitor.

              Just curious, would you guys rather have a free domain (usually contain ads only downside) or maybe get an actual hosting site with our own domain name (say... OsGolf.com)

              If the latter, it's $40-50 a year. Would anyone be willing to donate say $3-5 to get it? Figured I could pay the rest of whatever is needed.

              Of course I want to have it fully ready and let you guys see it before we even discuss donating for a website but just curious.

              It's looking pretty good so far. It loads up fine on my iPad but, the navigation menus only show a blue box with a "?" in it when clicked on. Of course, if you haven't put any thing in them yet then that's just fine.

              Is the website going to be geared towards PC or console players?


              For those playing the early release, how does it compare to last years TW? I'm not talking about features but core gameplay, specifically how does it compare to TW 14 on tour difficulty?

                Yeah I do have an HDMI output on my PC. That would be an option. Thanks for the advice. Thinking about it because I'm trying to hold off on a PS4 until next year.

                  Game definitely does seem more optimized after this last update. Still some hitching during ball flight but getting much closer to a stable 30 FPS on High detail.

                    Negative. I just kept restarting the hole until wind is the same. Did a total of 4 shots this way.

                    On a separate note, has anyone heard about the golfer customization this game will offer eventually? Custom clubs?

                      Just like (I hope it's that way as they said that lie and strike quality will affect the flight etc..) in real golf , your distances will vary depending on quality of the strike.
                      That's why sometimes you here the dude say "not a great strike there".

                        Guess I'll get better with time...lol.

                        Ever since the update, my game constantly locks up on the menu screen. It seems to occur every time I'm searching for a course to play. I can use the Tee Off method every time, but if I want to play around, game keeps crashing.

                          From all the videos I've seen, Blue Ridge Plantation seems to be most well designed course so far. Good job to whoever made that one.

                            Your iron distances shouldn't change based on if it is a tee shot or off the fairway. I hit mine the same distance in real golf.

                            That said it is easier to make better contact off a tee shot as you can place the ball how you like.

                                Very nice job man. Just watched a video of it. Makes me want to get this game so bad.
