Announcer Voice incorrect score

Played a match play against Jordan Spieth at Pebble and if I got a par the announcers would say I got a bogie or a double. Or I would get a birdie and they would announce a par.

Also I don't see a way to concede the hole or next putt. That would help speed things up a bit

    Summarize your bug The announcer states the margin of the lead incorrectly.
    How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure. While playing the US Amateur, I was four shots ahead yet the announcer stated "the lead had swelled to 6". Two holes later, the announcer stated the lead was now still 4, yet I had just gone ahead by 5 strokes.
    What happens when the bug occurs? The announcer states the margin of the lead incorrectly.
    What do you expect to see? The announcer being able to accurately handle basic math.

    While playing the US Amateur at Bandon Dunes, I was four shots ahead yet the announcer stated "the lead had swelled to 6". This occurred in the second round, on about the 6th hole.  Two holes later, the announcer stated the lead was now still 4, yet I had just gone ahead by 5 strokes.  This seems pretty basic, yet flawed nonetheless.

    Summarize your bug When putting for par or birdie, announcer says trying to save bogey and vis-versa. Announcers announce wrong score sometimes "He's still 5 strokes up" when 6 strokes up.
    How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Repro Steps: Putt for birdie until he says "trying to save par here" Play in career mode and look at tournament score comparisons and you'll hear announcer say wrong score differenctial.
    What happens when the bug occurs? Sound is just off
    What do you expect to see? Visually fine

    That's it

    What game mode have you experienced this in? If this happens again it would probably be helpful if you could share a video here as evidence for the devs to see of what is happening.

    I have only experienced this in career mode. When they show the scores between holes for the incorrect “leading by” dialogue. For the incorrect “putt dialogue” that was also in career mode. Can’t remember if more commonly on par 3’s, 4’s, or 5’s.

  • It's like they're using dialog for my player when ai player is putting or making birdie, they'll say he's so and so under par for the tourney but that is my score and the ai player is no where close to that.

    Summarize your bug More career mode bugs on audio commentary. Announcers saying I'm after my first win sometimes after I've already won multiple times. Also, announcers saying it's the first hole when it is not. (i.e. "a birdie here at 1" when I'm on 12 or another hole. Also, announcers sometimes give my score as my opponents when playing with AI playing partner. After skipping a tournament the prior week, announcer said I missed the cut.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? No offense, but if this game was properly QC, they are easy to find/hear.

    Summarize your bug I'll be playing an online match and it's using a different score card than the course we're playing. For example, we'll be playing Wolf Creek, but the announcers will be talking about Chambers Bay. At first I thought it was just an announcer glitch, but then I noticed the score card was Chambers Bay, not Wolf Creek. This caused us to be playing 460 yard par 3's at times and 150 yard par 5's. I was actually putting for albatross. On a side note, some of the other players had different pins they were playing to that I couldn't see. I was like, why is that guy 50 feet away from the hole and lined up in the wrong direction...but then he would make the putt in an imaginary hole. I'm sure it was a real hole on his screen, but it didn't exist on mine. Why would some players have different pin placements? That's not fair in ranked competition. I am reporting two bugs in this thread. Pin placement bug and score card doesn't match the course bug.
    How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play online 9 holes tour difficulty. I'm not sure if it's only tour difficulty, but that's all I play, so that's all I can speak for. It may take you a few tries. I'd say it happens about 10% of the time.
    What happens when the bug occurs? It causes wrong scores.
    What do you expect to see? The right scores and fair play.

    I didn't take a screenshot, but I will next time it happens and add them to my report. I'll take one of people putting to different pins and I'll take one of me putting for albatross on a par 3.

  • The announcer saying the ai players score for ours and vice versa, it is very annoying and ruin immersion.

    I see it a lot when I just create a stroke play game against an AI player. They will say something about my bogey on the last hole, but I birdied. It was the AI the bogied. At the end of every round, no matter who goes first, they will say it's the end of the round, but the last player hasn't finished yet. I think the dev team could just play a few rounds against the AI and they will soon see the issues or look into the code. Really, at times, it feels like the announcers are totally unaware of the AI player or which of us did what. There is a disconnect somewhere.
