The Golf Club Review (PC/XB1)

[godylla]

Anyone have any more, or seen any more, details more specific than "soon" for PS4? I would love to give this game a try. It has me intrigued, especially the course creator with the amount of time I could sink into it.

What do people think of the course creator on x1? I found it to be very very slow and cumbersome to use on the x1....i won't have the patience to use it till it improves

Sony usually only updates their PS4 online store once a week on Tuesdays.

Next Tuesday would be the most likely date.

There is a decent amount of stat-tracking. It will keep track of your best round on each course, longest drive, etc. but you have to go to that specific course in the "course selection" to see them.

I'm a bit of a stat-geek and would like to see a bit more stats, but I imagine they are coming with future updates. As an early-access player I can tell you that they have been very responsive to the community and their suggestions.

I will say that there seems to be an opportunity for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbkLvy29jQg

From what I've heard, HB Studios is very interested in making this happen.

I don't like the game. Not sure what it is about it but I don't care for it.

Here are the exact resolutions and frame rates for each system:

Both will have the graphical equivalent of the ‘High’ settings seen in Early Access on the PC. Allow me to address some questions from the get go: The reason the game is 720p on the Xbox One is simple -- we couldn't get the framerates we wanted at higher resolutions. I also would like to discuss the framerates. Do not get bogged down in this number. These framerates run very smoothly on the consoles. Unlike many games, we have separate threads for the input and the graphics rendering on the consoles. So while the graphics threads render at the above numbers, the input thread runs at 60 frames per second on both consoles. So overall performance feels higher than what you may be imaging the number 30-40 fps represents. Framerates on the PC are not on separate threads, but they are also not capped.
