will there be dynamic weather in the game?
I am wondering if there will be weather in the game. Weather is one of the most important factors when playing 'real' golf and it certainly impacts on your shot decisions.
The difference between playing St Andrews Old Course in a gale with driving rain as opposed to a sunny July afternoon where there would be lots of run - a truly different world.
I hope upon hope that a form of weather (hopefully a live weather toggle) will be available in game.
The interview linked below included the following question and answer which conclusively rules out weather being a feature, at least at launch. (DB = Lead Producer David Baker.)
OS: Is progressive lighting included? What about various types of weather conditions that affect course conditions?
DB: We have 3 times of day for each course to be played. Morning, Mid-Day and Late Afternoon. Weather conditions are not a part of launch. So it will not affect gameplay.
