Missing features in PGA Tour
I’m trying to understand and be patient but I’m literally fed up! How did EA manage to make the most anti social video game of the 20th century.
No microphones in competitive. Why? All previou...
Forum Discussion
@vanKlNG Bang on. EA's been absolutely quiet since the last patch. No community updates, no acknowledgment of what (if anything) is being worked on next.
I'm guessing there will still be another patch, but the lack of communication leads me to think it won't be terribly substantial. And then that'll probably be it. I can't see them dumping tons of dev time into fixing a game that's probably at the bottom of their profitability list.

@Catphish37 I fail to understand how people think it’s acceptable? They’re just happy to be playing a half finished game riddled with bugs, but, it’s ok, they’re updating the community with very vague time lines and no specificity to what they’re going to add.
It’s a real shame, the game has potential to be great. I just don’t think enough people will be around to see it.

@Catphish37 game riddled with bugsCan you elaborate on this further? I get it that you’re absolutely raging about some features not being included in the game but you keep referring to ‘bugs’… what exactly is happening in the game that can lead you to claim the game is riddled with bugs?
im now on my 3rd season in career mode and aside from the odd putt not reading properly here and there and a couple of weird camera angles (that can often be combatted by adjusting your view) I’m just not seeing anything that can be considered a glitch or bug or coding error.
The key to forwarding concerns about something is to remain level headed and keep your tone balanced, otherwise anything you say just comes across as lacking credibility. I know this is a forum whereby everything has to go in the deep end with emotions and the more you can rage about something the more cheerleading you can hope to receive from likeminded people, but in the real world it’s just not a serious and adult way of approaching a subject.
- @theycagednon - Menu freezing, camera angle when close to objects, incorrect green reads, disconnects from online matches, disconnects from online tournaments after spending in game currency, career mode freezing at a certain point making it unplayable, player freezing when taking a quick putt, swing delay, triple bogey cap.
That’s off the top of my head, scan the forums mate. I think there are 250+ posts on bugs.
In relation to your point about being emotional etc the bottom line is they have charged £90 for something that is half finished. In any other scenario would you pay the full asking price for something this undercooked?

This started for me after the last patch.
The only incorrect green reads I've had is the putt line showing where your ball goes. So I try to focus more on the actual grid and ignore that unless i have no idea where its gonna go, you can also just turn that off. Its off in online competitive mode.
I've never disconnected from anything mid game, but the game has crashed on me once while in the menus, or right before or after a match a couple times. But never during a round and I have 100s played. . One thing that really helped me was lowering my video resolution which got rid of the stuttering as well.
Took me a while to figure out to change camera angle when it was blocked by objects lol. now that I know that its no longer a big deal
The swing delay is just something I got used to it could be intentional unless I'm confused about what you are referring to?
The Triple Bogey Cap is only an issue for me in online games because there is a shot clock that is not visible to players. So what happens is if you take too long you get an automatic triple bogey on the hole. This is driving me nuts and definitely something they should fix by adding a shot clock for players to reference and to keep things fair.
But again, I don't see any of this meaning the game is riddled with bugs. I have seen way worse releases in my time, these issues are very minor.

It is missing alot of features I want. like a chat to communicate with players and turn based multiplay. But after waiting 15 years this is better than nothing.

This is how I feel, the difference between features and bugs needs addressing here.
Online mode is pointless right now, and not because it’s got glitches, it just has no features, or desirable features.
Im going to keep ticking over playing a couple of times a week to stay sharp in the hope some proper best ball and 4 ball are introduced.
