  will we have in a near future.. look a like real water ,, cloud passing by .. bit of rain sometime .. game at 6.am in the morning whit sun getting up  :)

  think that the game should be more realistic whit the 2014 thecnology.

  a really BIG update would be more than welcome

  The courses as we see them in this game are photographs not computer generated. The water isn't moving because it's a photograph. It's not raining because the photographs were taken on sunny days. I think it's called photo-realism. Somehow the WGT people take thousands of photographs of a golf course, laser map the ground and blend it together to create our golf course back drops. I love the look of the game knowing when I play a course like St Andrews I'm actually seeing exactly what it looks like in reality. The downside is they don't change the conditions of weather or sunlight as in time of day.

  WGT has to take 200,000 - 300,000 photos to give us an 18 hole course.

  WGT does not use 2014 technology - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash_Player
