EA takes another giant step backwards in this patch. Still no opponent ball markers in online match play. New putting gimmick is so stupid th R word could be used without recourse.Lack of individual skill level lobbies with all play formats just screams of laziness. A few more patches like the last few and I'm sure you can destroy what's left of this game.

They have shown they never cared about online play.  only guys left now are guys like elf all over the forums advocating for everything against it.  The game is already destroyed on the pc now,   and i'm so upset i'm besides myself.

Got to agree. After a few rounds of online stroke play and their decision to randomize the 9 holes seems to be losing track of what they randomize. At least 2 of the 4 games I played, I wasn't playing the holes listed on the scorecard. I only noticed because I eagled a par 5 but the score card tracked it as a par 3 so I got par instead of -2 but then on the scorecard par 5 I was shooting at a par 3...almost got a condor, but as it was I got bird but albatross for the scorecard. It may have happened on the other two games, I just didn't notice if they were all correct pars, just wrong hole.

IMO they should have just given us random tees (black, blue, white, red) and not this mix-up of holes. You don't know what hole you're really on with out checking the scorecard. It may say 16th on top but it's really your 2nd to last hole (17), etc.
