there's always specs in the store i want but without points, i can't buy them. They added daily and weekly quests but daily is only like 500 and weekly is like 1,000 but not all are arcade which i like so i can't do those. i hope someone can help get this part figured out. they should even make some specs available with real money if possible. i just want to finish up updating my character. ☹️
I agree with ultrasonic77. Unless you rank in the top 25% you either get your money back or take a loss. Same with tickets you enter weekly or seasonal tournies. For example you do a daily for 2000, I normally get elite ranked or ranked. Elite ranked you would get 4 tickets, ranked 2 tickets. You put those into weekly or seasonal events and I win the same amount as I put into it. I know some people will say get better which I have a lot but I’ve now reached a good level and struggling to improve further. I get good scores (average -15 on 18 holes) but it’s always the same people on the leaderboards are getting -23 on 18 holes! Whenever I look at the leaderboard it’s always the same people smashing it. What’s the incentive for average-good players like myself. Unless you’re a demon at the game tournaments are pointless and a waste of time which is disappointing. On 2k pga you can join online societies and bet your currency, it’s a pity online on this game is absolutely pointless.
Their are a lot of issues with the game. They need to get the game up to a level where it is challenging and enjoyable for all types of players, in order to grow the community. This would also mean creating some sort of community based feature in the game, like their previous Country Clubs. And an expansion of their multiplayer features that allow players to lockdown their own features, rather than just the presets given.
But maybe most important to keep the current community playing... to have handicap tournaments along with the current open ones. Where lower ranked players are competing with those at their own skill levels.
Elf they are some good suggestions you make. When I wrote my message I only thought there was one page on this topic but can now see there’s a lot of other people with the same problem. For example i sweated for an hour on the daily all 18 pro tourney 4000 coins at banff. Got a -17 which I was really happy with tied 87 in the world but only got ranked as it was set at 25-75% and got 4 tickets. I could have literally just bought the 4 tickets and saved myself an hour. The highest score was -24! That’s every birdie and eagle obtained which is just crazy. Surpirse surpirse all the same people top of the leaderboard. They need to do something as it’s really putting me off doing them anymore now. I’m half way through my first season on career, done a lot of the challenges and can’t see myself playing much longer when I’ve completed my career. 2k pga is free on PlayStation next month, some of my mates don’t have a ps5 yet so we can’t play with them so we will be jumping on 2k with them. If it’s good and more rewarding can’t see myself coming back much at all which is shame.
@ELF014 Funnily enough I played a lot of 2k21 which I enjoyed a lot. Got used to the tempo parameter pretty quickly but found it to be quite unforgiving at times. The main gripe I had with the game was multiplayer. There would quite often be more than four of us wanting to play and it was maximum four players so we would have to play online society which was good but took away from the experience of playing live with friends. I think I read before that it’s the same for 2k23 unfortunately. Playing fan made courses was pretty cool. Looking forward to trying it out.

I wasn't aware that you had played 2K21. In that case I think the biggest thing you have to deal with are the faster greens.
Unfortunately the limit is still 4-somes.
@RJellis11I would not waste VC on daily tournaments that give tickets since the rewards can be nerfed and time is wasted. I would rather buy the tickets with points from Xbox store and use them for weekly and seasonal tournaments. I still see the same guys on the leaderboard with -23 to -24. Getting elite to world rank will still give coins without wasting them on tickets. The only issue once you obtain coins is purchasing specs you want because it can take weeks or months when they become available in the store. 2k21 or 2k23 does not have this issue.
