How was this game released with the shot mechanics so broken? You can line up a shot and hit it the same way and the ball lands 20 yards away from the same shot set up. Reading greens is near impossible the moving lines are wrong 50% of the time. Some greens are faster uphill then downhill. Wth EA do your devs have no shame?

@Designated_Dave2The blue swing line that swings Back and fourth you have to click when it's in the middle. If you click left or right of the middle it goes off your trajectory.
That blue swing line is highly inaccurate especially in Wolf Creek. When I first played, I thought it was going to be like the line in TW14, but it was so off. It improved when I got the legendary specs. When I created a second golfer to join alternate tournament, I saw how bad it was. For 3-clickers like me, the line is even worse. I needed to aim towards the rough or sand to actually get the ball to the green. It's sad that the OP was a year ago, and nothing has changed. Just reminds me of the entire lyrics of the Who song, "We Don't Get Fooled Again".
@PalomaMarvel24If they do come out with a new version for sale I would not buy it unless they heavley push they have removed RNG. It took me like 4 months to feel half-way comfortable.
Who said simmers wanted more random???
Couldn't agree more. I bought this when it first released. I was in these forums constantly. I love golf games and really wanted to enjoy this one but couldn't get down with the RNG. The game is highly inconsistent. Wind, level, rough, etc matter but when you hit a drive perfectly straight with no extra power and zero wind influence and it "somehow" goes 20 yards off track...makes absolutely zero sense. ESPECIALLY in the challenges, oh man that is infuriating.
I actually stopped coming to this forum cuz nothing was being fixed really. I only started playing the game again within the last 2-3 weeks...and here I am again complaining about inconsistencies that were never fixed. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be investing anymore money into these golf games.
Also, when it first released this forum was a tad ridiculous. If someone didn't agree with you it wasn't just, "I don't agree". It was YOU ARE WRONG and there were a certain group of folks that dang near bullied people, tell them to stop playing, that the other person was bad at the game, etc. Of course since I don't back down we would usually all get a warning or have posts deleted 😂

OMG. I remembered those times and I remembered those gamers making the nasty “play better” posts. They were even praising the Notorious Update 3. When RNG got even stronger from later updates, these gamers joined the chorus of complaints. By update 6, I don’t see them in the forum.

Yesterday I hit a tee shot that showed the line going perfectly straight through the centre of the ball, club speed as perfect and backswing 0.7% short. That shot violently shanked 100 yards to the right and ended up in the water, rather than the left edge of the fairway where I was aiming. This happens multiple times every 18 holes.
In real life you don't shank a ball you hit basically perfectly. That isnt how physics works. If I shanked it fair enough, but to hit a ball perfectly straight only for it to shank violently 100 yards from its target just isn't right.
I just don’t see this behavior in game. Heck even when I created new toons with no stats and level 1 and gave them my old specs, I didn’t see this sort of inaccuracy…. I could still shoot -10+ in tour mode.
some of yall are just playing a different game than me.
