putting is STILL broken! putts roll over the hole, that "kick save and a beauty" STILL happens, (line up putt and goes towards the hole then KICKS the opposite direction just before it gets to the hole) putt lines are off you -EA- are costing me 10's of thousands of coins and most of my tickets each week due to your screw up (fix the game, its been well over a year now.....)

I rarely get good results when I red - fast a putt like the first one. It looks like it was hit too hard, and the quick putt feature gave it a weird animation that I haven't seen since the cup physics were fixed months ago.

The comment just sums up all the posts they made. When they hit the putt too hard and use quick putt, they blame EA, the wind, Evian, the other players who scored better, and possibly their dog or cat except for themself. I get surprised when they contradict themself after another gamer has a similar issue.. I think they are expecting an easy button from the Staples Center to put them on top of the leaderboard.

If it's a bug, why would we used quick putt/skip shot if we don't have to? The game is working just fine for the rest of us without using quick putt. Hitting or not hitting quick putt, you hit that putt too hard and it just wasn't going to go in.

You can save yourself the effort, we've already told you exactly why it happens.

@-Roasted513- wrote:@lolwhat1234you have NO clue "why this happens"its something that -EA- is doing, because this can and will happen on ANY hole ANYTIME from ANY distanceI've even had putts from off the green do exactly the same thingRead this post again. I can even put it in big letters for you if it helps.The game engine is doing what every other game engine does. You're seeing a quirk of animation resulting from you skipping to the end of the putt, and thus assuming the last few frames of rendered ball motion were an accurate reflection of the underlying physics simulation. But it's not and everyone else knows that. Apologies if some of these words are too long for you.

@-Roasted513- That first putt on the first video looked like you aimed too much on the high side of the line and the putt lipped out. It didn't go over the hole, but just lipped out on the high side and ended up right of the hole as a result. I never skip putts like you do so I always see exactly what the putts do. Just fast forwarding is enough for me.

@Katybee_1313 I agree with you completely. The first putt was clearly staying on the high side of the hole (left side) and when it reached the hole it was going to lip out and end up right and past the hole. That is exactly where it ended up after you skipped it. The animation clearly glitched and showed the ball take a very odd angle, but you can tell from watching the first second or so of the putt that it was going to either miss left or lip out, which is what it did. I'd advise to just simply hit fast forward on your putts and you'll never see them do anything weird like that again.

@packattack04082watch that 1st video in slow-mo and watch what the ball does at the 6-7 second mark... kicks HARD right even before it gets anywhere near the hole... also why should i have to adjust my play style to accommodate this game, -EA- needs to fix this, I'm willing to bet other people that don't post on here have EXACTLY the same issue

@-Roasted513- The ball went straight right at 6-7 seconds because you hit 'skip shot'. It was just an animation glitch caused by you skipping the shot. That isn't what the ball was actually going to do. It was going to lip out on the left side of the cup and the ball ended up exactly where it would have if you had simply let the putt go in normal speed. You don't have to accommodate how you play, but you do need to accept that you simply missed that putt. The putt wasn't going in because you had a bad line and too much speed on it. The graphical glitch that happened was only a result of you hitting the 'quick putt' button as you call it.

I guess EA could fix it to accommodate your play style. When we all hit quick putt, the ball shall always go automatically in the hole. If the ball doesn't go automatically in the hole, it's EA's fault and they have to fix it so it shall always go automatically in the hole.

@Weyland4kwe'll put it this, if i miss a long putt (anything over we'll say 25 feet) im usually no more than 2 feet past the pin, most of the time....
That has nothing to do with anything, you should know that being an experienced player. You can hit it too hard and be inches over. It all depends on the putt and conditions.
Post some recent video footage, maybe we can fix it. Can’t hurt.
EDIT
You did, let me take a look.
So this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXHZeGJMwuE

You skipped the result and thought it was a good video to post?
How do you know it rolled over and didn’t lip out? You never saw the result brother, you’re fortune telling right now.

Do you have any more video footage, like not skipping the result we can look at?
