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...

Yeah, it's not the same. Even the most senior programmers, they had exactly one golf game (EA Rory) built on Frosbite engine. The Senior designer started for TW12 on the old TW engine for PS3 and is now working to build the next 2K golf game. These guys were all working on other EA games after Rory. Most of them are now working on other EA games, not golf. Probably a big reason why EA wants all their games on Frosbite, to send their programmers to any games they developed. If you want experience, it's the guys at HB studios working on the same old Unity engine they've been using since the start of their golf games, an engine so old all my 3 kids were not born.
By the way, I'm living north of Toronto, so a proud Canadian too. And I have to give it for the guys at HB Studios, they were a proud Canadian company before selling to 2K.

True... at least they were your neighbours in Nova Scotia... I personally live on the West Coast, born and grew up in Vancouver but currently reside a little further east of the city.
I'm surprise @bhamel stated your temperature in Fahrenheit... we are hovering at a high of 4°c and low of -2°c here.
But I was there at the beginning with HB Studio's... they really cared about the product they put out. It was a bit of a sad day for me when they sold their IP to 2K.

LOL. I’m currently in Ohio at my girlfriends house so between that and living 5 or so miles from Detroit, 99% of the weather I watch comes from the U S A and they are one of the very few countries left that didn’t go metric. I’m sure missing my golf game as well, I didn’t want to bring my laptop with me so I have no golfing to do. Heading to Florida next week for 15 days so it’s going to be a while until I start plowing golf balls into hazards, more Fahrenheit numbers will be entering my 🧠 brain. Take care and enjoy the west coast, it sure is beautiful out there.
