    Yeah I have been, don't get me wrong I'm enjoying the game. But I'm basically playing against myself. I'd rather be challenged aiming for targets set from my friends list but there isn't anything like that at all that I can see so I'm finding it a bit of a chore coming in several shots ahead of the competition without feeling as if I've earned it.

    @CompetitiveDad It's a pure golfing sim so much harder and nowhere near as fun as Everybody's Golf, rather than pinging in birdie's everywhere you'll spend more time trying to get pars.

    Still a great game though, it has a course creator so there's endless courses to play but it's rough around the edges.

    Rank 3 at last. It's a good thing the golf is so good as the grind is real..

    @claypool thanks mate. I asked mangojoe and he said that it's a pure SIM, like I said I love the gold on EG. Just hope it's gets more challenging!!

    I''m going to have to agree, this is a big step back for Everybody's Golf.

    There's no way to play with friends other than 4 way stroke play. There's no online tournaments. The Open Course thing is weird, if you wanted to play against friends you would need to take a manual score - there's no friend comparison option on the daily scoreboard.

    More crucially, the central game has lost some shot mechanics; and the fun of selecting a character and load out has been replaced by a grind and pay to win. On the PS3 game, there were friendly tournaments of 50 where you were forced to select novice load outs, a great leveller, and a fun way to pass time between ranked tournaments.

    Even the single player is a step back, with slow pacing releasing courses, and no unique challenges.

    There is still a great golf game in there somewhere, and I'm still having fun, but I'm struggling to adjust at the moment.

    Anyone know how to change to the premium cart?
    It says I've got it in the shop but I can't find it when I look at my carts in the menu?

    @Gaol Agree with most of that, however I'm sure all those modes will be added, I've read that they patched in tournaments etc.. after release on the last couple of games.

    What shot mechanics have they got rid of? I've been playing a lot of World Tour recently and from what I can see it's exactly the same except for the advanced swing which I never used.
  • Deleted user 31 August 2017 20:09:58
    I used circle shot and miss it badly. I agree, when they patch in tournaments it will help a great deal.

    Online now if anyone is up for a round.

    Also, anyone who ordered from Amazon, ask them to speak to the product team for your pre-order code. I got mine sent by email today after speaking to someone on the online chat yesterday. Hope it helps someone. A refund of £4 wouldn't cover all the bonus DLC and so you really should complain.

    Been waiting for this for years, but felt a bit odd playing it earlier. The graphics hurt my eyes a little. Has anyone else had this? It feels like the colour saturation or something is a little off.

    Bear in mind I'm getting on a bit and it's a fairly cheap 32" TV, but I don't have this problem with any other games.

    Played an opening (offline) game today and walked it with several birdies. Not sure if they make it easy to start with, or whether I'm just an awesome golfer!

    It's the first golf game that I've played since Tiger Woods on the original Xbox, and I'm missing the ability to get a look at 'the whole of the hole' before I tee off (I know you can raise the camera up, but I'd like to get a better look at the green / bit of the fairway that I'm aiming for.

    Also, is there any way to put a bit of backspin / topspin on the ball? Digital downloads are all very well, but I do miss having a manual.

    Hold up or down on the dpad after you have started your swing. Left and right will do draw and fade.

    Triangle and then dpad up to the landing area is my preference - L2 takes you straight to the landing, but it misses the all important fly by for the shot line. The mini map on the right is useful for choosing your tee angle - L3 resets your tee position if you want to move after selecting.

    Wondering whether I should wait and buy the game when the patch comes out, or just buy it now

    @FuzzyDucky

    Cheers, thought I was going mad.

    It's especially noticeable in the hub area. Stuck the PS3 incarnation on for comparison and think it actually looks nicer.

    Nice round, first time playing that course, it's a lot better than the first one.

    Good game guys, that was a close one, could have went any way.

    Yea that course is pretty great. I have the 3rd and 4thunlocked but so far I think 2 is the best.
