Has there been any word from Clap Hanz about an update that would bring Advanced Swings, like we had in HGG WI and HSG OOB, back to the game? I quit playing this game after two weeks because I'm not a fan of the horizontal, non real time 3-click meter it uses.

National Tournament update and a new course DLC, Namron Bay Country Club, will be on November 20th.

So club and ball restrictions can be in place for tournaments. Very good.

Also of note, looks like we'll be able to move from open course to open course without returning to the home area. Will save a lot of time collecting gems.

Gem farming is the reason I gave up on the game. I can't be bothered spending more than an hour everyday simply trying to collect gems. The custom clubs should not have been such an integral part of the game and there should've been a better way to upgrade clubs instead of gems & gem farming.

Honestly, as much as I have been waiting for more DLC Courses and that Tournament mode this might be the biggest thing to me. I love the game but it needed a LOT of 'QOL' fixes and this was the biggest one.

I haven't looked up any info on the Courses so it will be pretty exciting playing them for the first time. I will record a full round on them like I did for Green CC and Balata CC for anyone who wants to preview them.

Finally starting to understand the custom clubs thing. Fully upgraded one club set with nothing but power, then went and saw the other guy and added one last bit of power. I thought I was able to continue upgrading with each category (control, spin, backdoor included) but I guess you can only get 10+1 total for all categories, go figure. I think I got to a total of Level 22 for power, shooting 368 yards total.

I guess if I play enough, I'll make custom clubs maxing out each set. Not sure if it's really worth maxing out backdoor, but what the hell.

Still haven't had to repair clubs, though I think I've shot more than 180 holes with this set (someone mentioned that was the limit).

EDIT: And just as I say that, my clubs finally need repair. Ah well, good to know I get a notification for it and such.

There's a patch out, and it's probably that tournament addition one.

It's big too, almost 4 gigs.

Can't wait to try it later! New course and perks to Turf War added as well.

Right now the national tournament is still offline. It shows the name above the middle gate but you can't enter it.

Not sure what they are waiting for to open it.

Breaking down and upgrading to the 4 Slim this week. This game is on the list used at Redbox why not? I've only seen gameplay on youtube so it is tough to tell how good it really looks. I have all the games they made for the PS1-PS3 and was wondering how the graphics compare to the latest two games they made.

Looks like the game now keeps track of how many Birdies, Eagles, etc. you have accumulated. After getting an Eagle today it showed "361 Eagles" in the top right corner. Pretty neat little addition.

I'd say there is a slight upgrade to the graphics but a major upgrade to the lighting. During certain times of day the game looks completely different it's quite amazing.

I think I heard the game is 50% off on the PSN Store and $10 at Redbox too. Great price for the game. If you enjoyed the other Hot Shots games you'll like this one too, the only drawback is that it only uses the 3-Click Swing type and there's no option to use the others.

Haven't played this game in a while. I'll have to check this game out over the next few days.

I'm a digital guy and have never used Redbox before, but I couldn't pass up $10 for this game. I also snatched up Doom and Dark Souls 3 for around $22 total. I can dig it.

This game is so much fun to play. That's an area where most games in this genre have a hard time. That being said, it still plays a solid game of golf despite not taking itself too seriously. I haven't hopped online with it yet, but I'm glad I picked it up.

Looks like the Online Tournaments wasn't opened today but the new Course was added to the Playstation Store. $6.49. Pretty steep but I will give it a go tomorrow.

Hot dang! Three great games for a pretty low price! Nice.

I got the new course and played a round on the Championship tees. Shot +4.

The standout feature for this course is definitely its water. Most (but not all) of the ponds around the fairways and green are playable hazards - you can hit out of them without penalty. It's far worse for distance potential than trying to hit out of a sand trap, though. I'd say the greens are about average in slope severity. The course rates on the select screen as a 6/10 difficulty on Championship tees with normal cups. It's definitely a step up in difficulty from the other DLC courses, Green and Balata.

It's a fun course, but whether it's worth the price will depend on how much you enjoy the game.

Re: Everybody's Golf Arrives on August 29 For PlayStation 4 - Post Impressions

So what do you get with the game? 8 courses that you can unlock that come with the game that you don't have to buy? How many DLC courses above and beyond that have they released?
