Re: The Golf Club December Update Available Now on All Platforms - Details Included

Anthony, ... understood on the tie/sudden death issue. It wouldn't have been worth delaying the update. Perhaps, you guys can reconsider it in a future update?

I play almost exclusively online with others in online multiplayer and enjoy that mode the most, by far. It's fun just to play a round with others while getting to know them and just have a good time. Some like playing with Turn Order "on" or enabled, and it's a fun way to play. A lot like to play with Turn Order disabled, which was called "fast play" or "stroke simultaneous" in some prior video golf games. I believe many more online players played this latter way due to it being a little quicker.

Could you guys consider making a change to how your disabled online mode plays? Right now, after a player finishes a hole that player is presented with a huge scorecard that covers the entire screen while that player waits for his playing partners to finish the hole. Links 2004 and a few of the prior EA golf games allowed the first players finishing to actually switch to the view of the players still playing the hole (like a spectator mode). If there were more than one left playing the hole, the ones who had completed the hole had an option to cycle through the actual views of the players still playing. It made the whole experience much better because after you completed a hole, it was still interesting to watch your buddies finish the hole. As it is right now, once you finish the hole, you just stare at the big scorecard while waiting for your playing partners to finish. So, is this something that can be incorporated into online turn order disabled play at some point?
