Patch 7.0 update discussion
Okay so it took me about 60 seconds to download and install the patch on my PS5.
It's been over a month since I last played. I booted up the game using my stock character (no skill points or specs...
I'm sorry to say that the ryder cup patch is an embarrassment. There is no way to play the ryder cup event, which is the only way this update could have been deemed a success. No European players to select. In fact the roster is still tiny as it has been from day one. Pro pass is worse than last season. Scottie schefflers ball spec is no better than Xander schauffeles. Basic commentary errors still abound. So disappointed. Ea try really hard to put a positive spin on these updates. Shame they dont put the same effort into seriously improving the output.
@Matsocanne I fully agree this is less about creating a Ryder Cup experience as it is to tie in the fact that they have included 2 new types of gameplay.
They can put as much lipstick on it as they want. If you have an objective viewpoint, it is pretty obvious this is a really weak effort.
EA has not embraced what the Ryder Cup event is all about. They basically included two new styles of play, a new course and added some assets belonging to the Ryder Cup brand.
Where is the feel of being on a team in a four day event, where ever match is important. Where you plan your matchups, and follow along with your teammates scores as you play.
EA may have purchased the brand... but nothing about this feels like the event itself.

@ELF014The problem is that they really seems to be happy about this update like it's the BIG thing. But I don't think they really read all the community opinion about it.
They seem to be happy about everything they have done in these videos they have put out with a certain content provder.. Who by the way I can't stand, he seems pretty full of himself.
Not only that but this content provider just feeds into EA...it seems pretty obvious that he doesn't want to lose his standing with them and lose any content or gifts. Like potential future trips to events.
But I agree, the developers appear to be working within a bubble of delusion, of rainbows, butterflies and unicorns.
The Community Managers here are saying comments are being forwarded to them... and if so I am guessing they feel we are just a small group of malcontents.
If it were me, any community as long as it doesn't cater to a specific mindset like a political group... would be a pretty good representation of those I am catering too. It takes a pretty big ego to ignore the screaming voices in the choir and continue moving forward thinking you know what is best. Especially when each move you make causes the choir to get louder.
Well except for that content provider who is drinking the koolaid.
