Putting Ruined in Update 3.0
Guys please, revert. This update on putting is terrible. Additionally, the lip-outs are terrible. I've got 100 matches under my belt on this IP to learn the game and just getting a handle on it. I've...

Yeah, that stupid update 3 killed the game for good for most casuals and arcade players.

Absolutamente Correcto! Even though arcade difficulty is listed, Arcade mode has joined the Dinosaurs after the notorious update 3. It is sad some advanced gamers think arcade mode is not yet extinct.
Just had one of those simmer's dream at Quail Hollow. Short 6 foot putt, hit it underswing - perfect and the ball slowly went right over the middle of the hole to stop a foot after the hole. Just quit right there steaming. No wonder just about everybody left and not playing the game anymore. #BugReport #AdultInTheRoomHasSpoken #StupidUpdate3 #PuttingRuined #EverybodyIsLeaving

Those hashtags perfectly describes why almost everyone left. For next iteration of game in case there still is one these hashtags need to be present to get people back into the game: #ResistAdultInRoom #PreserveArcade #BringBackTW14.

I’ve put this on the Bug sectionVery nice detailed bug report. Hoping for the change for the better. If the fix actually gets made and putting physics reverts to what it was during launch, there is a chance I might get the game again.

I’ve put this on the Bug sectionI appreciate your due diligence, but EA has to be aware of the issue. Along with the fact their product testers must have seen this.
Ok, I had a nice one tonight on a sponsor challenge at Scottsdale against Cameron Champ. On the first par 5, I had a 5 foot putt or so straight to the hole. Didn't get a red fast and the ball went slowly over the middle of the hole like the hole wasn't there. Went 'what the hell' steaming again. Then Cameron Champ had something like a 3 foot putt left, and his ball went slowly over the middle of the hole like the hole wasn't there too. Now I can't stop laughing.
- @Katybee_1313 It’s just nonsensical at this point

I last played when update 6 was set, and Scottsdale was one of my favorite courses. Based on comments, I think Update 9.0 not only buffed RNG, but also buffed Andrei Vasilevskiy at the net while shots got nerfed. The situation has gotten worse if the putting in Scottsdale got even more difficult. We once had the Notorious Update 3, and now we got the Infamous Update 9. 9 stands for 3 squared; I would not want to know what Update 27 will hold since 27 is 3 cubed.
