Hitting ways isn't then hallege itd generating and guessing the distance you may actually hit it. It's highly inconsistent. It's also not much entertainment watching drives go 230 yards in no wind conditions. This updated mechanic really ruins the short game.

This latest fix is game breaking imo

LOL.... I get your drift! It doesn't beat the hell of it for me at this point though. In fact, it still falls short of The Golf ODO Club for what I'm looking for out of a golf game. I'm not sure I can truly define what it is I like about The Golf Club more, but it just feels and plays like a more fluid, coordinated game to me. Plus, I'm just a slightly better than average golf gamer, so the one difficulty TGC has is more closely suited to my game, although I'll admit it's too easy to hit the ball straight.

I don't want anyone to think that I'm belittling RMPGAT because people are using house rules to play it... heck, I play and enjoy Tiger Woods PGA 10 to the degree I do because of some pretty drastic and technical house rules; more so than anything I've seen in anyone's RM house rules so far. The problem with house rules though is they usually make for an inequitable and/or unenforceable experience in online multiplayer matches and tournaments. If there was a set of house rules I could put into effect for RMPGAT that I thought would work for me right now, I'd own the game. I just know from my experience with the Early Access version that I couldn't find that point.

RMPGAT is nowhere near the game right now that I think it will be as little as three months from now. At some point sooner than that, I think there will be an option to turn the swing meter off and the new swing difficulty options might get it closer to what I'm after.

TGC is THE most simplistic Golf game I have EVER played. What it does, it does well, but for the above average to Elite Golf video game user, it is like playing on rails to me. I know others feel differently and that is great! Right now, with my current settings, RM is giving me one helluva PGA TOUR Golf experience and challenge. Fans can and are crucifying RM and rightly so in well known areas, but when it comes to gameplay, RM has TGC beat in every single area, IMO. Ain't it great we have choices? Can't wait to see what HANDSWARD has cooked up for TOUR mode......

Try playing TGC with zero aids and tell me how easy it is.

No green grid, no cam zoom, no wind indicator , no auto club selection. Etc.

I have played that way and actually played RGT a few tournaments. RM is a better and more realistic challenge. You don't have to like that opinion, but it is mine. If you disagree, c'est la vie.
