putting
putting is STILL broken, I "quick" putt most of the time when playing and the ball rolls right over the hole about 4-6 times per 18 holes. also, that "kick save and a beauty" still happens quite a lo...

@packattack04082 a "quick putt" is hitting the y button on Xbox controller and id assume triangle on PlayStation... like when you speed up your shot, just tap that button
also, I have well over 1000 hours played and this happens constantly

so yet again, (-EA-) im losing tickets because you cant make a simple fix to this game, when i hit a putt and its tracking to the hole, then somehow goes off into lala land... theres an issue.
fix this game, whats wrong with you!?
- @-Roasted513- I have to say, I have never seen anything like this happen when playing.
If you're quick-tapping the Y button after putting the ball, who's to say that a break didn't move the ball away from the hole? And if you're "quick-putting", how do you know the ball rolls over the hole at all, since it skips to the end of the shot altogether?
I'd simply suggest maybe not "quick-putting" and see what happens. I think putting has been much-improved following the patch a few updates ago that re-did cup physics. My only issues with putting now are the lousy greens at Torrey, Evian, and Wolf Creek.

Almost always putts I've hit hard to try counter the unpredictable break. It looks like the ball goes too fast, hits the far side of the cup, and the forward momentum carries it over.
No issue with putting either, I think EA did a great job when they adjusted cup physics. And like others, weird things happens to me on greens at Torrey, Wolf Creek et Evian.
- @Katybee_1313 I agree that putting is generally very good. I have no issues with putting on every course except Torry, Wolf, Evian and sometimes Top of the Rock. It's because those courses have bad lidar data or something and there are random humps, bumps and mounds right in the middle of lines that the grids don't pick up on. You can generally see them on worm cam, but predicting how the ball will react is a guessing game.
- @sroel908 I do "normal" putt and this STILL happens just as frequently. also, it's easy to tell if a ball rolls over the hole due to where the ball ends up
@-Roasted513-Well, I am sorry to hear that you're having that experience. But I don't see these things at all any more.
I just got done playing 100 or so holes in the last couple hours, playing at Chambers Bay, Valhalla, and Liberty National, and I never had any problems with putts rolling over cups. Those issues went away with the update that redid the physics.
