3-click players in PGA Tour
why no mouse play in EA golf we need it
Forum Discussion
I disagree to the statement that 3-click is easier than swing stick in this game. I do play with a game controller but I use the 3-Click method because I prefer it for many reasons. I find that when I play using the swing stick, it's way to easy. No challenge. Also, I like to fade and draw the ball on a lot of my shots, and the way EA has the swing mechanics of the fade and draw with the swing stick is ridicules. The 3-click mechanics for fading and drawing makes much more sense. I agree about making the 3-Clickers have the same options and opportunities as the swing stickers. I just think the game is way more challenging and more fun using the 3-click method than the super easy sting stick method. I use to love the swing stick in the older games like Tiger Woods '14. It was much more challenging. But those days are long gone I guess.
@MadTiger64 I've seen the 3-click meter move at different speeds. I assume tied to the difficulty setting.
I did try it on my PS5, my settings are at the max... and the swing speed was pretty quick. My issue with it was that there appeared to be a bit of a lag between pushing the button and having it register.
So YES, I can see how 3-click could be seen as being more difficult than using swing stick. Though for me personally when I used it, I found it pretty much a push. But I didn't like using 3-click... which is surprising, since it was all we used for decades.
For myself I have convinced my mind that the swing stick is an extension of my actual swing. I actually feel I stroke my putts...

- @ELF014 Yes, I agree with you about using the swing stick feeling like an extension of your swing. Don't get me wrong, I would rather use the swing-stick for playing. However, in this game, EA made it too easy. They need to make it more sensitive. The way it is now, it's almost impossible to miss a fairway. They need to add a difficulty setting or something. Plus change the mechanics of how you fade and draw the ball like they had it in Tiger Woods '14.
@MadTiger64I agree with you that the swing path is not sensitive enough. And dare I say... I would like a tempo parameter in the swing.
I think I should start a new thread. So I'm not being accused of hijacking this one.
But additional difficulty for sure, and I am not a fan of how they implemented draw and fades on the swing meter. I rather it not have to swing on an angle... but if they insist on this it should swing through the center of the axis of the controller.
