money making

you (EA) seriously need to add some kind of money makers in the game outside of the daily/weekly/seasonal tournaments, I, personally, am sick and tired of doing these. 

the cost to enter isn't worth the reward as the cost to enter every daily tournament is 7k x 7 days equals 49k for the week, so if someone plays ALL the weeklies, but doesn't place even close to a "winning score" they may miss out on being able to enter more daily tournaments due to you (EA) making the ability to make money almost impossible.... great job (EA)

Just an FYI - you can earn the gold coins by completing the Pro Pass, and just leveling up in the Pro Pass once you've reached the last level. So basically, just keep playing the game once you've reached level 50 in the Pro Pass, and you'll have a steady stream of gold coin currency coming in.

There's also plenty of gold coin opportunities in career mode-based quests and challenges. I just won the US Open in career mode, and got thousands of gold coins for doing so.

@sroel908I'm very aware of what you stated, but... I have just about EVERYTHING in the game done with zero way to make coin outside of the daily/weekly/seasonal tournaments

and its only 200 coins per level on the pass, not worth the effort

Some of the career mode quests are repeatable...you can achieve them once per season - I know the OWGR and Tournament Finishes ones are repeatable. And for the Pro Pass, you will get those coins just by playing anyway, so no additional effort is really necessary.

I guess what I am saying is that if you play more career mode plus what you're already doing, you'll probably earn coins somewhat more regularly than by just doing the Online Tournaments.

I haven't played in a long time, but I cannot ever remember not winning something.

The point however is that winning is not a right of passage. If you are NOT competitive in some tournaments save your money for those where you are.

EA could do a lot of things to improve this game. This complaint in my opinion isn't one of them.

I don't earn coins outside of tournaments or from the "challenges" when they are up from some major event.

Pro pass and occasionally added challenges offer little by way of coins and those are easily chewed up. The career mode is a waste of time once you have completed season 2 and there is nothing else to have a pop at. Tournaments are the only source of regular "income".

For many on PC, it is a simple case of treading water with coins and tickets. Having to pick and choose which daily tournaments you play because you don't have enough coins to do them all. Only having one, maybe two attempts at the weeklies because you can't accrue tickets sufficiently during the week. And then hoping you have enough tickets to have a pop at the seasonals.

This is the first game I have played where it is near impossible to accrue in-game currency. I understand that on Xbox and PS5 it is much easier but on PC, we can barely get 100 players for arcade events and usually only get half a dozen or so for sim events where the big payouts are. If you don't nail No.1 spot first time every time, you get practically nothing and there isn't a single player who can do that.

Respectfully, the PC players are the poorer, third world population on this game and EA don't care.

So, the fact that many PC players cannot accrue coins or tickets is not a problem ?

And there was me thinking EA wanted people to play this game.

I think there should be a reward for winning tournaments in career mode.

I play 4 rounds and feel the top 3 players should be rewarded something.

Maybe..

1) 5000

2) 2500

3) 1500

Just feels a little hollow without a reward when you win.

I feel the same way, it's like game over and nothing to play for.

@ELF014 I went back to playing 2K and reset the career mode. Much more enjoyable and closer to proper golf.

I think we both come come up with a good list of things that would drastically improve EA’s game. The chances of them even listening unfortunately are about the same as me winning the Masters… the actual Masters 😆
