Any positive posts to read?
I’ve been playing this game for a little over 2 months now, at 1st I never really liked the game but now, I think it’s very good and fun to play, I levelled up my golfer in that time and it has reall...

@BhamelI am really enjoying tis game and I also am fed up with people forever complaining about the same things and trying to promote the other golf game. I had hoped that members in this forum would be giving advice and tips about the game, helping others with tips etc, etc
Great to hear Allan. I’ve been playing the other game for close to 3 years now, 2k21 that is, I did enjoy the game and thought I would give 2k23 a go, it only took a few hours in and a TON of ads later (not to mention the same game) but with ads galore that it wasn’t for me. When I downloaded this game I never really cared for it but I stuck with it and I haven’t played my 2k21 since. This game makes you think WAY more about your upcoming shot (much more like real golf) and with all the shot types it’s much much better. I don’t think these complainers realize that if this game turns out to be a bust that they will (and should) stop making golf games period, then we have one golf game with no real competition and that usually never turns out well. Happy swinging Allan and Merry Christmas.

It's ridiculous over there, it's only a matter of time before they have an ads to pop up once the ball goes in the hole.

LOL. I tried to not give the game a chance for an ad, but, they beat me to the punch in my short time trying it out. Many people on the discussion forum on steam say the same thing, same game basically as 21 but with 10 times the ads. Have fun out there with this all around superior game Katybee, I like your name 😃👍 Merry Christmas to you.
@BhamelWhile I don't agree with all your points, I do agree that 2K23 feels like I am being bombarded with an ad everytime I go back to the main menu.
2K23 is different, though I agree it was not a very big change from 2K21.... it is signficant enough.
But if you play 2K at higher difficulty levels it plays much more realistic than EA. When I was playing EA I was only using about 5 shot types... it was all you needed, and some are overpowered to put you beside the pin everytime.
But I agree competition SHOULD create better games. But first you need to be considered a threat. At this time I don't see 2K being too comcerned. It seems 2K has a firm grasp of their community, EA has done nothing to steal their usergroup.
As golf fanatics I'm sure every 2K player either bought or at least tried EA PGA Tour... which is probably why EA's initial online involvement was so high. But after playing, these players have migrated back to 2K.
EA needs to step up and make a better game, or at least one more inclusive of all types of players.

I do admit I did enjoy playing 2k21, I had close to 3 years of play into it, it just seemed like all I did was hit the ball, go chase it down, and do the same thing again and again and again, not much thinking about the next shot and that same announcer in both games, uggggh. This game just feels different, more thinking about the next shot and with all the things you can adjust in the menus, they made the game user friendly for just about everyone from beginners like me to people like you 😃 I did a bit of research before diving in and made the golfers kinda weak in the career mode, call me a cheater (wimp will do) but I won a few tournaments and used the coins to up my golfers ability, poor Scotty and the boys were only shooting -5 or close to that, it looked good on them, now that my golfer is up there a bit I made the other tournaments a bit tougher to win. I do hope they make money and continue to make the game even better, I do prefer it over playing my 2k21 and 2k had maybe 5 years or so head start ( they did give up on Tiger Woods in 08 I know) I have the game on a cd somewhere around here and, the people working on this game are probably a whole new team. I bet giving these guys 5 more years ( a long time I know to wait) It will be pretty darn good, it is NOW for me, if people don’t support it though, I think we all know what will happen. Merry Christmas to you.

@BhamelThanks, had a great xmas, started playing EA golf again in the new year and I am really enjoying it, using different golf bags with each bag carrying different specs/balls/wedges and testing them out on all the courses, I am also testing out each shot type with the different specs and have slightly rejigged my golfers experience points to more closely enhance my weak spots. I find there is so much to learn with this game. I too enjoyed 2k23 golf for a while, but only played with a friend online, and I loved the course creator, but the game was exasperating
Your welcome. I’m currently in the U S and don’t hame my laptop here so I haven’t played in about 3 weeks, I’m definitely missing the game, gonna be about 2/3 more weeks. I’m thinking of grabbing a set of hybrids to play around with when I get back (the only clubs I haven’t upgraded yet) so that will keep me busy for a while. I did enjoy my 3 years playing 2k21 but I like this game even more, something about golf ⛳️ games that I really enjoy playing. Have fun out there and Happy New Year Allan.

Define exasperating.
Do you mean sort of like golf in real life?
