If they could make the putting feel like the golf clubs. I would love this game. Its rewarding in tgc when you read the green and sink a long one with touch and feel. In rm it just feels disconnected and cheap.

I will be playing it later. I'm curious to see if by the time I get home there is some sort of an update, but nothing has been announced by EA...starting to get worried

There is no weight to it at all, just feels floaty.

Agreed. It was hard to gauge distance on puts because they are all the same motion whether it's a tap in or a 30 footer.

Why does he signal fore left when it's headed right for the center of the green?

Also, not sure but I can't get out of bunkers. No matter what shot type I select I end up stuck.

Otherwise, I like it. Wish in My Pro mode or whatever it is called you could have the option to play the whole round and not just 6 holes starting at a sim score.


You do have that option. You can easily change back and forth between quick rounds, and full rounds on the second screen of options in the career mode. It says Round Type or something to that effect...

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Available Today - Post Your Impressions Here

i've not played the game yet, but from reading impressions and reviews it seems that EA simply has some internal company edict that they had to make a game as inexpensively as possible so as to maximize profits on the game.

Think about it....

No Tiger Woods as Cover Athlete ($$$ Savings)
Fewer Courses ($$$ Savings)
Fewer Golfers ($$$ Savings)
Fewer Features ($$$ Savings)

Their marketing strategy was to wait 2 years for a golf game on a Next Gen platform, knowing the appetite for consumers would need to be quenched in some fashion regardless of the quality of the game. Release as few details as possible and post cryptic and clever Social Media comments to ratchet up hype and conversation about the game.

Now their chickens are coming home to roost.
