On some holes when you put from one side of the cup it shows break going one way. When you miss and putt back the other direction the break is going the opposite direction. For example, I had a putt with solid left to right break, however the putt went straight/slight left and past the hole. When I went to putt back towards the same direction the break was showing another left to right (would have been right to left break from the original putt location)
I've seen a lot of cases wher the grid would show a very obvious fall to the right, but the putt preview goes completely against that - as in it would tell me to putt to the right (and the ball will fall left) in this sceanrio.
I've tested and the putt preview is always correct, it is the grid that is wrong. So annoying because without the grid (which I dont want to play with but I couldnt understand some of the putts I was making) there is no way you would guess that the grid is wrong, so everyone is going to be hittting these massively wrong puttsYep came here to post about this issue. I also have seen a clearly left to right break, the preview says to aim to the right side which makes no sense. But the preview does seem to be always correct.. However that means the game isn't really playable in modes without the preview since the grid is wrong.
The distances can be wrong too.
Interesting that the preview shows it correctly! I had previews off so I'm part of the crowd hitting the very wrong putts
- @mattytheman33 Same here I didnt know wat I was doing wrong and i was even more confused when I put the put line on. The games unplayable till this is fixed. Its a joke.
- @mattytheman33 100% the same issue here. The putting preview line is correct (showing right to left break), but the grid is wrong in showing a left to right slope.
Issue is the bead movement is based off the elevation at the grid corners. So, if there is some variation in slope between those points the beads won't show that. Those possible situations are usually detectable by the varying slope in adjacent grids.
- @mattytheman33 same i am on ps5 the grid lines go one way so you try counteract the break to see the ball go opposite direction
Both those vids are perfect examples of what I was taking about. First ones is putting down a valley, and second along a ridge. You see beads moving both directions in adjacent grids. Beads don't change directions mid grid so not sure how this could be fixed, Stair stepping of the grid lines should follow the terrain correctly if they were visible. You can't go Soley by the beads in these instances. look at the flow of the green outside the target line to identify these situations.
Same issue. In arcade mode the putt preview line will be opposite to the grid break occassionally. As for playing sim mode, you might as well close your eyes and guess at where a putt is going to go
- @mattytheman33 100% I’ve had the same problem very frustrating.
