@yusd25No thanks. The current points for the stroke leaderboard favors large lobbies. Having 16 players is great for the h2h competitive side but unfortunately, that rarely happens any more. It's typically 3-5 nowadays.
I get your gripe though - for devs that could figure out how to make the h2h Ryder Cup make it seem like you were competing against the opposite side (Euro v USA) when your partner was actually from the opposite side (notice the 3 obviously USA people matched up in the alt shot and one was your Euro team mate?) they can't figure out the small stuff like best ball or adding the Y button to FF your shot. Doing away with large lobbies would be a step backward.
On line h2h ranked is what will give the game longevity.

Absolutely 100% disagree with you beerrun, my entire network/group of online golfers don't care 1 bit about whatever your h2h is..
we all want to play a game of golf in OUR GROUP, the way its meant to be played in every single OTHER GOLF GAME that's ever been created and including those from EA until now.
the lack of this format is why the game popularity is no longer just dying , its dead, nearly everyone I know who owns refuses to play because we can't play together.
This is not some online fame grab game and never will be. so I am sorry but your rationale make absolutely 0 sense or logic.
People buy the game to play against people TOGETHER not in the no turn order rubbish, you want to play solo, go play the tournaments or quickplay.
What are the points you talk about worth? 0 they mean nothing , its a social game, you are not getting a career playing this game mate sorry to tell you.
- Beerrun4u2 years agoNew Veteran@yusd25 If you're going to the Online lobby for your little buddy matches, you're in the wrong section - Online is meant to be competitive, which is why there's a leaderboard and the point system is geared towards large lobbies. If you want your friendly foursomes, stick to the Private Match section and do what you want.

I love turn order and much prefer it over stroke simultaneous
However due to how popular stroke simultaneous is (Sometimes I get into matches with more than 10 players) it would diverse the player base if this was implemented in Ranked
Id LOVE to see Turn based Stroke play in private matches. Hopefully that will come in a future update

Omg, no wonder you're all too good for this game, since you've all been playing golf games since the beginning of times. And all those devs at EA are probably in their 30s or 40s, they can't imagine players that good.
Kind of funny reading about old games. I remember not that long ago, we were cleaning that big closet in the basement. There was a box of floppy disks I wanted to throw in the garbage. Dad didn't want to throw it out, and absolutely wanted to keep them. I said 'dad, we don't have computer playing that stuff'. He pulled out this big old gaming computer in there and showed me it could played that floppy disk. It was some kind of Leisure Suit Larry game with really bad graphics.

So you're all saying it's ok for beerrun to shoot down my opinion because isn't how he wants to play but when I respond in like, it's not ok. And then ageist references like it's ok for you to say it's not ok to mention how long I've been playing but you all can have your say about your misinterpreted view starting from the original post.
No hypocrisy here. Instead of us all rallying together to get EA to see our views let's rather shoot down each other and argue with ourselves instead of focusing on what matters.
Had anyone bothered to realise that my original post was calling out EAs algorithm that is the code for 2-16 players is what makes the 1-4 player option not possible work because they can't or don't want to integrate new code to accommodate the entire selection of gameplay that would suit everyone.
It's something said pre-release would be done in the first major update and why many still purchased it.
But hey you all have your opinion and along away. My gripe is with EA and anyone thinking they can say my opinion is worth less than theirs.
