Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 12: The Masters Demo Available Now, Post Impressions Here

[rangerrick012]

Well I'm getting it. For one I didn't get TW 11 and need a golf fix. And for 2, I didn't like the version of True Aim in the TW 11 demo, but do like True Aim in tournament mode in TW 12 demo. Though the caddy is an annoyance at times and do hope EA patches in the option to turn it off completely, it isn't nearly the game killer some of you guys are making it out to be. All things considered I'm ready for TW 12 and hoping it's a great experience.

I still think that even w/ the caddy it's still in the player's hands to hit the shots necessary. And I do find that I do better on my own than by using the caddy's suggestions, which somewhat puts to bed the notion that it's only a game of matching percentages now.

According to a blog on EA's website True Aim is still in the game:

Q. Will 2012 feature True Aim and if so will it be available in online play?

A. True Aim is now built into the new “Tournament” difficulty and you can play online.

Just read the impresions thread on EA"s forum...10 to 1 hate the caddie...hehe...classic EA. Now instead of admitting defeat, they'll spend next years deelopment cycles trying to "fix" it.

This is to the poster that Seymour's post quoted above was to.

Yes, True Aim is gone. All EA has done is to make it a camera view (optional on some modes, just like the presentation or follow cams). True Aim has nothing to do with aiming in TW 12. So, their use of the term in TW 12 is deceiving or a misnomer to put it more kindly. To be more accurate, they should call it the "True View camera", as it no longer has anything to with aiming in a true manner, but rather is reduced to a "view" of one's shot.

If you base this statement on the fact that you cannot see the distance of your clubs at the tee box, you are incorrect sir.
