SIMULATION MODE IS DAT DEAL!!! This is what I'm talking about in regards of bringing that authenticity of the sport out in a videogame. IMO, MLB the Show does it with baseball and now TW did it with golf. I'm not a die-hard TW player, but as a moderate golf follower and player back in the day, I can definitely appreciate all that was done to bring this mode to life. This is what the All Madden difficulty should feel like in Madden once the gameplay is on point. Gotta give props to the TW team, they did a solid job for sure.

Decided to jump on Live tournaments since EA just said in the official forums that they added in a tournament at noon because people wanted to see the game during that time of day. Here are three screens, video to come a little bit later.

Hope you guys don't mind that I am sticking these in the impressions forums. Let me know if I should create another thread!

Has anyone tried pressing the left bumper to see if that changes the swing camera? If so, that might help get the camera angle you are looking for. Just a thought.....

They just put up another Live Tournament at Royal Birkdale.

One last video. Shows off the Live Tournaments at "Noon" with the new broadcast camera. Select 1080p for the best viewing experience.

Simulation mode is a beast. About damn time some challenge was introduced into this series.

But the graphics of the demo are pretty bad. Why is everything so damn dark in Quick Play? Why not display midday conditions during the demo?

This game was going to be a definite purchase for me. Now I'm ambivalent. I appreciate the increased difficulty of Simulation mode, but otherwise the game feels very much the same as TW 13. Plus the dark graphics of the demo are VERY unappealing.

Unsure whether this is enough of a leap forward from TW 13 for me to justify $60. Plus I'm not a golf fanatic, so I'm less willing to part with dough for a golf game that isn't tickling my game bones.

I think it was because they wanted to kind of try and showcase what the live time of day conditions would bring. According to the developers on the EA Forums, this was just because that was set to early morning so that is why it was a little darker. They said they were going to set up another Connected Tournament to display midday conditions so you may want to try that out when they put it up and see how you like it.
