Agreed with all of that Saint.
it’s a damn shame but I’m beginning to see why the mechanics of 2k draws people to that game…. It’s more playable. It might not look better graphically, or have Lidar mapped courses, but it’s more playable.
First few weeks of this game I was loving it. Breath of fresh air; then I started getting pretty good at the game and start challenging the accounts at top of leaderboards, I learnt the game pretty well, and started noticing major flaws in wind, greens, swing tempo being luck rather than skill of the person on the sticks.
now I’ve played the game for a while, I’m convinced that most things are RNG in the game. I’m losing interest because of it. The game looks great and has good features, but the mechanics and RNG are ruining it now.
5 minutes ago in todays SIM 9 holes at east lake. I had 90 yards to the pin, around 15 ft of elevation uphill, wind was 8-12 north east of the pin…. I finessed it 89 yards adjustment
was 1% slow swing
it came 28 yards short of the pin
Hey Blue, you still need to adjust for wind and elevation in this game. Not sure if that is a thing in 2K or not. I haven't played it. But I found that you needed to in this game to consistently hit your shots around the flag and not short or long. I still miss sometimes because I'm still struggling controlling the stick and I add too much over swing or under swing.
Anyway, to make a long story short, you add 15 yards for the elevation but because the 8-12 yard NE wind is blowing the ball further you take off 8-12 yards. Because it is not blowing straight north and is a bit of cross wind as well, I would probably adjust about 5 or so yards. So it really plays about 100-105 yards. This is what golfers and their caddies do in real life.
But 28 yards short. Yeah, that is totally off. Something is wrong there. Seems a bit weird for sure. That shot you took should have been a lot closer then that. I'm thinking that it may be that RNG stuff raising it's ugly head. A little bit is fine, but they went overboard with it in the 4.0 patch.

- @4fcc25d100af738d Yes on beginner settings on 2k you can make it so the wind gets auto adjusted to your shot
It’s such a bad feature@agentputt Yeah I know. lol. I do the calculations and make the adjustments myself for wind & elevation, as sometimes what they give you is close, but a lot of times it is off. I currently play Pro. Trying to work myself up to Tour. But put it off for a bit because of the latest patch really screwing with the putting. I'll stick with Pro for now until that is fixed.
