Will there be a EA PGA Tour 2025?
Hopefully a 2025 version will be in the future? What do you think?

@Kayser_Soze3 No the game is a live service so no new release. At the moment we just expect that the "live" is on.
When I play against a friend of mine online, we no longer have anything like the career mode. There's no ball markers, there's no fast forward, the ball goes through the gallery instead of bouncing off of them, you cannot concede a hole in match Play. There aren't enough sponsors and the sponsors don't give you anything. You have to buy it all. And career mode you're playing for chump change instead of money. The very best golf game to date is Tiger Woods 2014 and I'm surprised that EA Sports have hired designers that know nothing about the game of golf

@Moonie54 This is kind of funny. The Lead Designer for this EA golf game was also working on TW12, TW13 and TW14. And he has left to go working as Lead Designer for the new 2K golf game.
So, who's programing upgrades for the PGA Tour Road to the Masters ?
- @Moonie54 The non-existent upgrades?
EA downsized and fired some 670 employees this year, cancelled and stopped support for anything not making enough money... so nobody is working on this game anymore. The game is dead. EA CEO called that layoff and sunsetting games.
With EA downsized and the lead designer jumping ship to 2K, the updates are non-existent, and unfortunately the game has become PGA Tour Road to Abandonment.
If EA specified the game to be more Arcade Friendly instead of a Simmer’s paradise in the early stages, the game might have done well and gotten a chance for another iteration. The Notorious Update 3 was the beginning of the end. By the time EA fixed the cup physics in Update 11, most of the casuals including myself have left the game. After the Tournament scores glitch, even more gamers from all levels said No Mas.
If EA plans to make another iteration, the game needs to be an over the top Arcade game like SSX Tricky or NBA Street. Another simulation based iteration would go nowhere in terms of sales.
