    Wgt and staff; Please, take a look around and you will see, wgt is slowly dying. I have many - many active members in The Elite CC that are becoming inactive. Is there ANY way you can revised the system? I know the answer is YES. This has been an escape / sanctuary - a place to come and have FUN and Relax for many, many players. Now - it’s NOT FUN for many, many players and, a few have already stopped coming around. It is those players that have been with WGT form its infancy. This is a COMPLETE shame. It almost seems like a form of sabotage. WHY! You can listen and consider the advice of your veteran players and SOMEHOW redesign the system without having to make MAJOR changes. You can redesign this to make it FUN again WGT...I know you can. There is- as I'm sure you’re aware of, SOOO much negativity against the new design that I have the utmost confidence that you will ATLEAST consider some of the ideas that are out there. When I first started and was @ the Pro level, I played my heart out to achieve Master status. NOW – with the new system in place I have NO enthusiasm / energy / drive / DESIRE – to make the LEGEND Tier. I truly hope this was not a FLY by night project that got to big - to fast and now, it’s about to crash. Time will tell. Please wgt – listen to the people that helped you get where you are. Return the jester and consider changing a few of the MAJOR issues to make this game what you claim it to be. The #1 Golf game in the market. Make it FUN again wgt. Let us be able to go into the Forums and read interesting tips / stories / POSITVE feedback, instead of ALL this negative garbage. Thank you- edge

    Jeff,

    Very well said. I for one don't like this legend tier most tour masters beat me in match play and so do some pros . I feel they have a hell of an advantage off the tee with the same clubs I have. And what's with all these tiers anyway. Why not AM/PRO like in real life. How can you explain the top money earners where one is not a legend? You are right the excitment is not the same and I sure as heck don't play as often. I like the levels but not the tiers wish we could go back to the old way. Of course WGT wants to bring in new players but  like we had to they need to earn the next tier with practice and lots of play. For the first time in 2 years I have considered leaving this game I heard a couple that have left for whatever reason.

     

    Thanks for your hard work Jeff keep up the fight lol'

    I think the changes are somewhat good...to me it is more realistic now.  I don't see so many people shooting 27 or 28 for nine holes and 57 and 58 for 18 holes.  Having said that....I do agree that the legends are at a big disadvantage.  I think WGT needs to move the legends tee boxes up to just behind the tour masters tee boxes, maybe 10 yards behind them.   Use the tee boxes way back there for tournament play....just my opinion

    This game used to be fun.

    Even before this recent change the game had lost the fun factor for me.   Once I realized it was more of a chore to play this game than it was fun, I gifted away all my accumulated credits and stopped playing altogether.

    It was a nice ride for a couple of years, and at least a few dozen WGT players got free stuff from me out of it.

    Feel the same, i was a great couple of years, but it's just not fun anymore. I have lost my desire to play also.

    I'm taking some time alway from WGT maybe I'll try again in a week or two.

    Personally I like the challenge of the longer distance but meter since the update is ridiculously bad and stings when you're hitting 3irons into many greens.

    I don't think that Legends need new drivers or balls that carry farther.  Our scores are very comparable to the real thing now.  Maybe a little more spin and precision on our irons would be nice though.  That said, I think that Master and Tour Master equipment needs to be dialed back.  Their current equipment would be unlocked when they reach Legend or level up how ever that plays out. 

    If WGT develops some new equipment for Masters and Tour Masters that takes about 15 yds off current driver and 5 yds off irons the playing field would be pretty level.....and more $$$ for WGT!

    Of course you are, you are a tour master, you love your level and ranking. try not being able to drive a fairway on some of the courses and then come back and tell us how you feel. You are not affected so until you are.........

    For me its not the distance off the tee box, even though Im farther back I can still course manage. Its the dialed up VEM on the putting greens that I find Unrealistic ! Bought the new redwood putter but doesnt help, putting on here $ux !!!  and as Ive stated before after my credits are gone, I will not put another $$$ into this game until WGT starts correcting some of the problems we all face and that DO exist on here !!!!  

    Penalize the honest paying players and do nothing about the cheats, multi account players that infiltrate and make this game what it is !

    WGT- wont golf today

    WGT- wasting good time

    WGT- Worldly Greedy Type

    The change is no differant than all the other changes they have made. had to learn how to play over every time so here we go again. You can't please everyone and you will be back to play. Me and just about everyone has said at one time or the other I'm tirerd of this bull and youll not get another doller off me but here I am and there youll be back at it so get used to the change and play your heart out till you get back where you were before the change. I like the change this time and if I don't like the next change quess what I'll get used to it
