Re: Chip shot challenge bug

Summarize your bug When doing the pga coaching, shot making challenges…. The first lot of stars are “chip shots” It’s not possible to currently get 3 stars because there’s a bug where when you start this challenge, the first shot has “pitch” selected instead of “chip”. This is stuck and cannot be changed until the second shot. Therefore you can only get 4 chips on the green instead of 5, so can’t get the three stars.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By trying out this “chip shots” challenge under pga coaching…. Then shot making challenges.
What happens when the bug occurs? The first attempt is locked to “pitch” when it should be “chip” that’s being used.
What do you expect to see? Chip, instead of pitch being used.

Please fix this


Before hitting the first shot, if you're already at address, this means you pressed A during the slide sequence.

Press B in order to not be at address any longer, and you can change your shot type.

    @jambomakaveli that's nothing to be ashamed of, it's an easy mistake to make. 🙂 Hopefully they change it so that button A is unable to move you to address before your golfer is on the screen.
  • I'm having an issue with the same challenge.  I switch to the chip shot, hit the shot, and have the ball come to rest on the green near the hole.  However, the game is not registering any stars for this challenge.  Is there some condition I'm missing?

    This is currently a known bug with the game. Challenges aren't working for anyone.

    i think the question is will they just give out an update that will give us all the challenges being complete. nobody really has time to do the challenges over 5 times just to document screenshots for the "electronic arts crew" and basically do "their job"  the "electronic arts crew" cant do it right the first time so they should throw in the towel since these updates aren't really fixing anything. they are spending more money the way they are doing it now. here comes the $80 games soon. i guarantee it

    @TheJudge24Ah, thank you. I love how we all paid $70 to be beta testers 🙂.
