  When teeing off, or hitting an approach shot...something has changed...it may have to do with the the yardage box ?...not sure...my normal "routine" is to look up the fairway. but now the view is different somehow??

   

  Yes, I know I'm a bit nuts, but anyone else notice this as well?

  Don't worry...If you could put your finger on it, you'd get VEM'd and miss the shot anyway.

  1. my 3 click meter is no longer operating at a constant speed.  it has changed drastically since yesterday.
  2. I have spent a great deal of time and money on your game and now you've ruined the experience for me.
  3. either fix it, or prepare to refund me for these clubs and balls you so conveniently monopolize.

  I think i know what your saying Mbags. Its like the scenery is a bit different/odd looking, but we are still teeing off from the proper tee box?.

  Yes, same tee boxes...but definitely something is different...for the life of me, I can't figure it out.

   

  I keep "looking up" and whatever I used to see has either changed, or is no longer there.

  I don't need VEM to miss a shot;)

  I have done all of this already and it has not changed......might as well be using starter balls. Thats how much they have changed the 3 click meter.

  If they don't restore it to the way it was i am done.

  Shouldn't have to relearn how to play the game because these idiots do an update.

  I will play out my current credits and ball inventory and then i am done. The 3 click meter as they advertised it was to be easier to ding(and it was) but the yardage was tougher to judge asi it was moving and needed to be clicked to get the correct yardage. i preferred it to the normal meter and was getting used to it.......till today and now its just horrible.

  Weird you mention that. I was playing yesterday and everything looked completely different, no shots working like they usually do, sharper screen resolution, brighter colours

  Then it suddenly dawned on me... I wasn't as drunk as I usually am.

  From that moment I made a promise to myself that I would never put myself through that again, so I am just off to the fridge to grab another beer :)

  See you all at the 19th !

  Cheers

  Exactly how I feel. The UI change interrupted me mid-Ready-Go-tournament and booted me out. When I could get back in, I thought my PC was lagging because the swing meter was so bad. After rebooting the PC didn't fix it, it dawned: You guys did it on PURPOSE? Why?
  
  Total waste of my Ready-Go admission fee, I went from a competitive game to being a buffoon with a toy club.  I hate the change, but if it stays, it will save me time and money.
  
  I spend too much time on WGT anyway. It's sure not like I was upsetting tournaments with my upper-mid-70s average. Why you guys had to penalize us, geez, I don't know.

  First I've heard but something a guy said during skins now makes sense. Something about the pins had moved.

    I have been having those damn putting lessons pop up when I'm on the green. If that's not bad enough after going in the options to shut it down they stopped  for my putts but now I was getting them popping up when the others were putting!
