EA PGA Tour - My Thoughts + Improvments
Having played many EA Sports games they often need upgrades and tweaks to improve them, and EA PGA Tour is no different, having said that, here are my thoughts on the game as it stands now, and things to improve.
Firstly I love the game, graphics look wonderful as is the presentation, 30 courses (5 more on the way) is a good amount, I get on quite well with the swing, and like the career mode. I know Pga Tour 2k23 has an editor and unlimited courses, but I prefer quality to quantity, and in every aspect I think EA PGA Tour is better (this is my opinion, doesnt mean I am right).
There are certain things that really do need to be adressed though, I am sure people can think of many things, but I mainly play career mode, so this is my small list.
1) If you change between Quick & Full rounds, it needs to be immediately, not next tournament, four full rounds is too much every tournament, quick rounds give you no control. If they canot fix this, then at least make the quick rounds more realistic (ie: was -9 and in second place after 2 rounds, my players stats were suited to the particular course, came out for the 3rd round had dropped back to -5 (+4 on round) Leader was now on -16 11 shots clear, tournament over).
2) 95% of the time if I hit the ball into heavy rough I still get a 95-100% contact, this is no punishment at all, its the same with bunkers, you should be punished for going off the fairway, or at least have to think more about what club and shot to play.
There are many more little tweaks that could improve the game further, but I think if these two were sorted, it would improve career mode a lot.
