Haha - go hit the lottery and come talk to me.

Yeah, I get that. And I don't think RMPGAT sold nearly well enough for EA to count on selling enough course packs to make it feasible. And when you add in the money EA spends to design such accurate representations, it makes it hard to justify a large course library.

This is why the lack of social features like Country Clubs and the old GamerNet from TW09 hurt so much, and a more in-depth career mode hurt so much. It would have not only sold more copies, but kept gamer engaged enough to be around to buy new course packs.

EA golf does have 19 courses now, most of which I think are real ones -

That's not too bad I don't think, but certainly lots of good ones missing though.

It's tough these days it seems like

690,000+ copies as of last week (in less than a year) according to VgChartz.....TW14 has sold 740,000 in almost 3 years....

Question:

I have stayed away from the career mode thus far and have just been playing play now rounds. I've been playing career on TW14 but the load times are killing me; I think I'm ready to take the plunge with this game.

How is the create a golfer feature and did they tone down the over the top celebrations that created golfers indulge in?

Thanks.

Another great looking course. I shot a 66 on my first play there. Not a lot of spots to get into trouble off the tee, really. I felt like I left a couple of strokes out there.

I tried to run online, but there's never anyone on. At least not on the Tour Pro difficulty. I'll have to get back into my career soon.

I went through and counted 21 Regular season tournaments and 4 playoff events Banff has 2 of them
