I'm sure on Arcade mode, those types of things will be possible in this game too.

All of those people saying how good that tw14 was seem to forget how easy it was.

In Amateur mode, yes, but you did not see scores like that in Simulation mode. RM (in TOUR Custom mode with all aids off but green grid) is in between leaning towards TW14 Simulation, but not there just yet, IMO.

No not just in amateur mode. People had found ways of cheating. Even on simulation mode people were posting very low scores. On pro mode I saw scores of -30. Let's not get too romantic about tw14. It was a great game ruined by cheats. TGC is ruined by cheating(and many other things ) when I played a online round on tw14 on pro mode or maybe the one a above. I had custom settings I think. it was always a solo round cause the scores were so low. I managed -21 at St. Andrews once, which is silly but I was miles behind the leading scores.
This game can't be any worse than that.

Was/Am kind of on the fence. Most of my issues have already been covered by others.

HOWEVER(and this could be a big one)

Variable shot/landing, maybe!

I played around with the Night Challenge thing and it turns out it can be a decent driving range. The big thing I think am seeing is variable shot/landings. With this mode you end up hitting the same shots over and over again. What this seems to show me is you can groove shot after shot and unlike recent TWs you will have a large area of where your ball ends up instead of having them all grouped in a small circle. If this is really there then it could make a huge change in some of the really low scores. Holing out from long range shouldn't be as repeatable.

I know we have had some deep discussions on this very thing.

Any game is susceptible to cheating....that was not the point. Without cheating, you did NOT see scores like that.

tiger woods 07 for xbox was perfect when it came to feel and swinging and hitting your yardage.. It was pure skill
This game is a hot mess!! I hate saying that but i wont even finish my 10 hour trial

It feels like a slideshow golf game.. there is zero feel with the swing.. Try it yourself everyone. Try to hit a swing and hit the ball 10 yards . You cant do it.. golfer will hit it at least 50 percent ..
Its a laggy framerate stuttering hot mess.

Breaks my heart i was really looking forward to it
