I'm looking forward to this on PC. I have a decked out PC (GTX 780 Ti) and want all the mods, 1440p, 60 fps, etc...

But either way should be a great title because of the customization.

I know a couple of guys on the beta team had GT 780 Ti's and the supporting hardware to got with it. They saw 45+ FPS at full detail 1080p, but I don't recall them saying anything about trying 1440p. I don't think you'll have a problem with what you've got though.

It's a real resource hog eh ? On ultra settings that is.

That's exactly why I was asking.

I was playing a hole that essentially has the green up on it's own little hill (can't remember the course), and I kept ending up having to wait for the ball to roll all the way back down. Spent a good 3 or 4 minutes last night just waiting for the ball to roll down that stupid hill (It took me a good 4 or 5 shots to get the ball on the green) and it was driving me nuts.

I did manage to figure out that when the game switches to your guy for a shot and it's zooming in, if you have the marker view option on, you can select that, then quickly select back to your player and it skips the zoom. Takes a second or two to do so, but it cuts the time waiting for the zoom to happen down quite a bit.


Many thanks for the response. I did enjoy the game while I was playing last night, just hope they can change a few things.

Not really, it just is not optimized fully yet. It is getting there.

Working on the course editor is a BLAST. The editor alone wins my $30. Man this game has some HUGE potential.

Working on a course now - Rural Hills (Name may change)..

Will have some pics and details of the first hole shortly, making it pretty challenging and to play smart instead of aim far and straight.

Rural Hills Golf Course

Hole #1

This first hole starts off the course making it feel intimidating. A powerful tee shot is not recommended here. The smart play is to lay up but there is room for the power shot with precision. Avoid the bunkers and the second shot is a short iron away. The greens are fast and they move. Avoid getting behind the flag on this hole and be careful to not zoom past the hole.

Designers Tip: Trying to go over the trees could turn this hole into a nightmare, pay attention to the tree line and it's angle if attempting to go over top.

Hole #2

Hole #2 on Rural Hills features a short downhill par 3. It may seem like a simple shot, but do not let the looks fool you. The flag is positioned between slopes on the green making it tough to land it where you want. There is room for a direct shot, but these greens are not the softest, be aware of the bounce and aim short of the flag.

Designers Tip: Trying to go directly at the flag instead of laying up will almost guarantee a roll off into the rough.

EDIT: Its Steam


When setting up a game and you have the option to see friends scores , and I assume play their ghosts, is that Steam friends or is it friends on the TGG site?
