Well got all the best gear and max level. Can only play stroke play in this game only. Nothing else to do cant play team games, only stroke with friends and play daily's that's it game over.

I would love to be able to play some team games with friends. its just stroke, stroke,stroke. Where is match play and alt shot stuff like that?

It took me 156 hours to reach the maximum level 50. With no user created courses, better turn based online modes of play and user tournaments that can be played with your friends, this game is getting boring very quickly. I have had thousands of hours playing other golf games before they started to get boring. We had weekly tournaments with scratch and handicap standing for each tournament back in TW2008 an TW2009. I was hoping that EA Sports new game would at least have at least the same options that were available back then and some better graphics and ball physics. I actually think that the ball physics were much better in the old TW games than this one. I am dissapointed that I can't earn any more SP's. I am not near being able to get enough skill points to have all the the types of swings. I now have to buy back some SP's to get some of the swing types that I would like to have and lose some that I don't use very much. I thought that it was going to be possible to level up enough to get all the skills that are available in the game..

@EA_Illium To be honest, the leveling system seems a little short sighted. I have had the game a little over 2 weeks and have also maxed out my character at level 50.I am working through the challenges but have stopped because the main reason for it was for the payouts.The career mode could be fun as was rather well thought out overall. However because the game is so easy to play even at the hardest swing levels, career mode becomes a birdiefest to make it competitive and there is no fun in that.I mainly enjoy playing multiplayer with friends on a nightly basis and EA does not provide a very good forum for that. We are doing it put everyone is complaining how easy the game is. We pretty much hit every fairway and green and have a birdie putt on every hole.Getting up and down is a given with the flop and pick shots and 3 putting is almost nonexistent.Plus everyone complains about the lack of turnorder, and the ability to watch each other hit the ball.The game was fun when getting to know it but it lacked substance in the gameplay mechanics to make it challenging in the long run.Even going back to a new player with no skill points the game is no longer difficult. Once you understand the gameplay the mechanics are not difficult enough to make for challenging golf.

Out of curiosity, how many gameplay hours has it take you both to get to level 50?Ultimately longevity with sports games comes from actually enjoying the basic gameplay rather than any form of levelling up I'd say. The sports games I've put most hours into are the F1 games and there is zero leveling up in them even right from the start (outside of career modes).What would either of you suggest that the game could offer that it doesn't currently for you? A good competitive online scene is what I'd guess you may want and are finding lacking?

@EA_Illium Match play that keeps the correct score and commentary would be a good start. How can you publish any sporting game that doesn’t keep the score?

I'm cool with no more skill points past lvl 50 and how EA have implemented that side of things, tbh I have a ton unnasigned anyway and like to keep my golfer at a lower overall rating. Would've been so nice to have further lvls, up to lvl 999, even if it was to only get 25 or 50 coins at each new level and have a proper xp grind that lasts, not just 2 or 3 weeks to Max xp. Game is so brilliant though and will never be dead, would just love to say be on lvl 62 right now with 450,000 xp to go to lvl 63, even if it was for only the smallest of rewards. Just like the idea of building to something and seeing those numbers tick over

Are you done with your career or all the challenges the game has? Is there a specific mode or activity you would like to see at this stage?

Cheers!

Wait, level 50 is max? Well that puts a damper on the game right there. I'm at level 40 and I've been pretty balanced in applying my SPs so that I don't get too heavy on one skill and lacking on another. But with only 10 levels left and the power attribute increases with each level, then the rest of my SPs are going to have to be budgeted. Right now I'm at the point where my next increase in power is 8 SPs, so that limits where I can place any other points. Totally disappointed that I won't be able to progress any after level 50.

@Ultrasonic_77 Yeah for me th e fun isn' ts omuch about levelling up to max level because for m that's just a measuring stick as t owhen to unloc nwe abilties like in a RPG game. For me the real fun is how many trophies can I win ove rthe course of my career can I make i tto being World Numbe r1 and win a World champoinship or whatever. Not so much about. I've played around a bit wit hthe game but haven't started a career ye tas I was mostl ywaiting fo the 3 click befoer starting. But I d oplan on starting dsoon now that it has been added. Kinda looking forward to it tbh.

Bear in mind that your player's overall capabilities are the sum of of the skill effects and those from specs, so you can use one to compensate for limitations of the other.
