    Wow, they changed something with the swing. I just started playing (haven't for about a week or more) and I can't hit very well anymore.

    They also changed the shot modification.

        Not in the list above is turn based multiplayer, and it seems to work very well.

            I know this is completely unrelated to The Golf Club, but how awesome would it be if some company made a generic football game, basically allowing us to create leagues up to 120 teams (hello CFB replacement), custom roster, uniform, stadium editor, all on PC. One day I hope for this.

            Back to TGC...

            Anyone play with the new swing mechanics yet?

              It's nearly impossible to hit 100% now for me. A bit of an overshoot on the swing difficulty calculation.

              Feels like it's tied to FPS, which makes it really hard to deal with on the player side. My shots over water tend to not make it as a result. The feel is a 100% swing, the expectation is a 95-97% because that's what I've tended to get out of my "100%"s, and the reality is 88% and a splash.

              Then I go up a club and hit 97% and knock the ball through the clubhouse wall behind the green.

                I don't mind the new swing mechanics...makes it harder for perfect shots, which I'm okay with. What I don't like is how hard it is to read distances. A 100% level shot is easy, but any loft, etc. is tough. Figure out what percentage of power to use is very tough.

                I'm sure HB Studios will fine tune it more to help us out.

                  Any chance of a mouse click mechanic being added? I know it is geared towards the controller but would love to be able to play a few rounds on my laptop in between work being done.

                    I know the console wannabes are trying to get a Golf Club Tour together and it got me wondering if we were still planning on one. I know the tour mode is live now and I can't remember who (I think it was TheBleedingRed), but someone was working on a website for it.

                    Are we still going to do this? Or has interest died out?

                      i didnt know where to post this, i purchased the early access two days ago, and i was able to play for about 10-15 mins on the high settings with some lag. i exited the game to change it to full screen and to medium settings, ever since i exited, my game keeps crashing. i have an hp 2000 2d29 that i bought during the holiday season brand new and i can run games like skyrim with a little lag but no issues. some of my specs are AMD Radeon HD 7340 Discrete-Class graphics card, 4GB DDR3 SDRAM (1 DIMM) processor. how was i able to play before but now i cant even get the game to stop crashing

                          Really enjoying the latest release. It's quite a challenge when playing some of the hardest courses and actually thinking about how to play your next shot is a joy in a golf game.

                              2GB, or right around that... at least when I downloaded it.

                                Are there any good places to find custom courses for this game yet? I'm considering picking it up but probably won't until I can play Augusta, Pebble Beach, etc.
