All I've wanted for years is real to life atmosphere. Golfers, Bags, Real or fake advertisements on the tee boxes. Some actual real golfer and commentary emotion. This is golf....not much going on here except some trees blowing, some grass moving, a few clouds blowing through, and where is all the resources going? an aircraft carrier crashing in on your tee shot. Theres something you see everyday.

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Official Trailer and First Details

It just depends what the real course to fantasy course ratio ends up being. If we get 20 real courses and 5 or 6 fantasy courses, I'll be just fine. If it's half and half and that's a big focus, it will be tough to keep me as interested.

The last couple PGA Tour games were moving in the right direction of obtaining more and more tournament licenses, and I hope that's been a focus through this process as well. If not, it will end up being half sim and half Hot Shots.

The graphics look stunning, and the game more than has my attention. But I'll be ready to hear more about the course and golf list that will be included. I'm staying hopeful!

Well, EA sure chipped the old battleship on this one.....

To be fair Tiger Woods was notorious for liking to play soldier.

Seriously what did I just watch? IMO EA just needs to say we're in this to make arcade sports games. If you want sim don't buy our product. They just made GC look that much better. Wow!

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Official Trailer and First Details

Wow, that's a terrible trailer IMO. It really appears theyve changed the entire focus of the game. I don't mind the few fantasy courses they have in there now. It's kinda of neat to play when you get a bit bored, That's it though.

Pretty crazy to see that trailer with the ship crashing through. Really strange. That's not fantasy courses to me, that's just ridiculous. If theres only one or two courses like that, and 15 or so real ones that come with the game, then I'm alright with it, afterall, I don't have to play them fantasy courses. If its shifting more towards the fantasy courses, I'm out.

Really strange of them to release the trailer like that. Just seems really strange to highlight that. It really gives off the message of fantasy being a bigger part of the game.

I guess time will tell. What we saw of the real courses there, looked really nice though.

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Official Trailer and First Details

Graphics look nice. However the tone of the trailer just galls the crap out of me. They took a year off for this? WTF does having a ship crash into the shore have to do with the PGA TOUR? I freaking HATE fantasy courses. If this was a technology demo showing off Frostbite 3, I get it. But I was turned off by the trailer as a whole and if this ends up being even more arcade than the previous gen, then this just may be the first EA Golf title I pass on since I starts playing PGA TOUR on the Sega Genesis. What a huge letdown so far.

That trailer leaves me with the impression that they are after a different market than what I was hoping, which would be simulation.

[BBallcoach]

That was atrocious... Thanks EA for killing any semblance of a PGA Tour sim. You know full tour roster, tons of real courses and real tough game play.... but no more arcade crud. Thankful for the golf club to get a sim experience.

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Official Trailer and First Details

I'm am lost so I will ask this. Instead of adding more courses that haven't been in the game such as Congressional, they add fantasy course? And based on the trailer I assume no realistic tour?

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Official Trailer and First Details

I was hoping the year off was going to be spent expanding on the strides they had made with the last few TW games and finally fix some of the bugs that have plagued the series recently. Guess they decided to spend the year off by bring BF4 to the PGA.

[willyfantastic]

is there any way to get people less excited about a golf game than to stick a bloody warship in there?

ridiculous - i hope with their next reveals they show what theyve done for the simulation side - are they trying to get cod players to play this game? madness

Glad you finally see the light DivotMaker :-) we've butted heads over this title for years, but this was the direction I could see this game headed a long time ago. It was clear then and clear now that the devs just don't understand what we want out of a golf game, or even truely understand the game of golf itself!

The Golf Club can't come quick enough

Come on EA. Stick to creating a solid , accurate Golf game & leave the gimmicks for a different game.
