That's a big ask there. As I remember, the only one communicating on the TW message board in the past and for EA Rory was Patel and he's at 2K now. What EA said through their communication, that we asked and really, really, really wanted was 60fps and the possibility to play career mode with only 1 round. They gave that to us, there's that. Unfortunately, it probably took a lot of resources and left all the game play issues on the backseat. I really hope we get some answers though, maybe ApexHound will get something for us.
Who knows, maybe there will be more communication on the 2K game now. Not only the guys at HB went silence radio saying they were just devs now, and it was not their job to communicate with users anymore. They even went so far as saying they were all moving to the 2K msg board for 2K21, having new users ID for all of them, just to never showed up a single time. 😃

Let's be clear... there were many here including myself that stated that 60 fps was not a big issue for a golf game.
As for playing career mode with one round again something I could care less about. I feel if you want to do something go all out and do the full monty. But I have nothing against those that want it.
But let's address core issues before these other ones. GAMEPLAY is the number one issue of any game.
As for APEXHOUND... I think that is where the problem lies... EA is listening to these content providers that are gamers and at most casual weekend golfers. And what do we have...? An casual arcade style video game.
I would personally rather not have APEXHOUND as my spokesperson. We already have an arcade game... I would rather have someone that can represent the needs of the person looking for something more.
Dunno, when I look at threads on their X (twitter) account, comments about game play are rare. Just about all of them are complaining about online mode issues, they want lobby and more modes like alternate, best ball, skins, turn base stroke, and specially crossplay.

I don't follow their Twitter account... I think spending time here is more than enough.
I'm not saying that those other items are not issues as well. But in my opinion it is not the core problem with this game. What you are highlighting should truly be a small subset of the game. The Golf Club didn't seem to have an issue getting it right, and they were a small development group at the time. Why has it been such an issue for a juggernaut like EA with seemingly endless resources?
This is not a casual arcade style video game. It's as much that as it is a simulation.
The devs are not players of their own game or else a lot of what is in it would have been caught. They seem caught up in listening to the wrong people on what the game needs or it could just be they really aren't concerned with building a game that has a fan base still playing 8 years after it's release.

It might be just me but i think Arcade level should be like "all play" was on the Wii an 8 year old should be able to pick up and play. The pro or masters level should be hard sim experience. Until they figure out how to do that they wont get the support they want. IMHO
