    Fencer100:

    Here's one to stir up the forum ....... instead of making the meter slower for the higher level players aand enabling them to post even lower unrealistic scores, why not speed up the meter on the high level clubs and set them a real challenge !!

    Now that would be novel

    Better yet, do it with the ball. Make those nice specs inversely proportional to the meter speed.  :-)

    Maybe, with the 2 top names in golf, getting involved with this game, we can hope for improvements.  Obviously, they see something positive here, and the game itself needs very little to get even better.  The biggest fault that this game has, is the way it's managed, with little or no communication, or  respect for its patrons. I have no problem, with them making a profit, that's to be expected, but are they really? Seems that they are just bleeding it to death!  I hear people complaining about the cost of Titleist balls, but do these same people buy and use Titleist balls IRL? Or do they cost too much?  We all knew that you were gonna pay to play them!  I've bought a couple sleeves of them, and I'm learning to use them, but I'm not going to waste them, in things like this last clash.  I normally purchase 10 cc passes to use in the clash, but not here lately.  I don't play real golf in 30 mph winds, why would I play in it here, sorry but that's revenue loss.  Bet I'm not alone either!  I don't buy passes, I don't use expensive balls with the free passes, again revenue loss. Don't they realize that more people would play, if they thought that they could score better? Since we can't wake management up, maybe titleist, and Taylor made can!  

    Since they obviously aren't going to make any changes in the tier system, there isn't alot of anything to look forward to, once you get to a certain level.  Just maybe, Titleist, or Taylor Made, will monitor these forums, and educate themselves on how to better the managing of this game, so the profits increase, as well as the ability for us to enjoy the game even more! Somebody, somewhere, needs to wake up!

    So true...
    Imagine how popular it would be for marathon runners to have to overcome sneaky hazards on top of a major test of endurance.
    It's not just the ridiculous wind & green conditions but the changes to overall game programming; sensitivities and the like.

    The new scoring system is a fantastic improvement, adding interest to what was 48hrs of boredom. If we could actually enjoy each round, how good would that be?

    Would that be just for pc based players, and then what about the mobile side? Would all that both sides have available be accessible by everyone?  If so, I couldn't agree more with you!

    What's not to agree with?   I play strictly mobile, if it didn't support, and improve the mobile side, no way would I pay to play it!!!! Yes I get the updates, and we still don't have alot of what the pc side has.  Sure we have the turf wars, and apparel program, coin games, but that's it! You, at least can download a program to play our platform, we don't have that option. Was that survey released prior to the mobile version?  If so, maybe this was your answer. Maybe you will be forced to go mobile, would be the easier solution, and we all know that they like the easiest way first.  Lol

    Yes I am addicted to golf an online/offline games, yes once I had a PC I wanted a Golf game to play.  Tried quite few, Tiger Woods 2004 got me hooked.  Well long past being able for interplay no lessWin7 8 10 will not run.  Found WGT, opened up a "new career" if you older sim golf players know all too well. 

     WGT met my standard as well as a lot of others.  Yes the site may not seem to be a forum about what WGT does but it is out there for you to see if you look.  Yes there are changes going on and moves that must be made to not stagnate the game, but to improve and adjust to the new times in not only golf for the PC but also Tablets and Mobile devices, cool.  The game programmers and web programmers as well as relevance to the game advisors all contribute to the WGT site, CHEERS.

    Yes OVERPRICED, give us a break Titliest, we know you make a great ball but not many will spend the credits for a equivalent ball to Volvik. 

    My choice

    Rebel the price DO NOT buy,

    2 cents
