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 played Amateur and Pro settings on TW since 2006, I'm not a new player.
People defend the game then complain about it... I don't get it. The putting model and cup physics in this game have never been right. I cannot explain their current concept for cup physics, but I couldn't explain their thoughts for the original one either. But obviously EA thinks they got it right because they have had ample time to make adjustments.
These courses are supposed to be mapped to within 1/4"... and if people believe the putting mechanics in this game are correct, then I don't see how anyone can complain about how the ball breaks in the game.
I don't have a problem with how the greens break on any of the courses... my issue is just with the putting and cup physics.
The grids and beads may not be granular enough to show every break... I personal don't use them so it is a non-issue.
A selection of putts that either roll over the hole and don’t react at all or react in completely strange ways

Yeah @agentputt , you've got some beauties there.
@agentputtYou have some great videos describing all the putting issues we are having. These videos are the best guide to be given to the EA devs so they can one day fix it.
Fantastic! Oddly, they took the time to add a great reaction animation to the ridiculous misses. In reality, the reaction from me would be to throw the putter as far as I could. Back in the day, when Albert “Joey” Belle would line out or whiff at the plate, he would throw his helmet. I’ve never seen anyone throw a batting helmet as far as that man could.
@agentputtPart 3 & 5 look like they were hit to hard pull back and they might drop. Just a thought.
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
