  Im sure you guys are getting tired of hearing all the complaints but everything youve done since the last update has done nothing and im absolutely nothing to improve this game!!!  Yes i agree a nice smooth meter is the goal but at whose expense?  I know you say you are working on the grid dots but thats not the only thing thats wrong.  IMO the meter has gotten worse!!!  Before even with the lag you could predict what it would do but now its all over the place.  You are either way early or it damn near goes outside the line on the right.  When it comes to the putter i dont even know what it looks like to hit the ding anymore!  I considered myself a pretty good putter but i played 18 holes earlier and id say i missed 8 putts inside of 10ft and at least 2 of those were 5 footers!  Either because its amazingly difficult to read the greens now or because i can not hit the ding.  Before the update this was never an issue.  Its been a week almost and its not getting any better!  PLEASE PLEASE do SOMETHING.  Keeping us informed would go a long way as well.  One short message a day that tells us very little to nothing is not cutting it.

  Not sure if you're aware that they changed the dot speed on the greens, everyone's putting has gone south. Check the other threads about all of this.

  I haven't really noticed the dot speed change much, could explain my putting woes in the first place lol.

   

  But it did appear that the dots are back to normal size from before.  Did they make them small again?

  i never noticed a change in size only that right after update they were lightning fast and they changed them and made them super slow.

   yes PJ i am aware of the other threads.  I started 1 of them last week and thats when they changed them and became super slow.  I wanted to start a new 1 to try to keep their attention and maybe just maybe they will give us more information on what they are doing to fix these problems rather than 1 post a day or every other day saying "we are looking into it or ill try to get them to revisit the issue".  To me that just doesnt cut it.

  hi

  we didnt change dot green speed... it was a side effect of other changes, such as much nicer meter. we're still tinkering with it but it's not an exact process.

  Hi WGT

  Well first time on here, and I've got to say the meter isn't better, and other things are as bad or worse....I am on 3rd browser, and am frustrated.  I know I've only been on a couple of months but am sure this is not the game you envisioned, nor is it the one I thought I would be playing.

  TY for responding ICON thats a start but saying its a side effect of things, such as a "MUCH NICER METER", is that a joke?  You obviously dont play this game very often if at all because the meter is 10x more worse than before!!!  Yes you guys took the stuttering/jumping out for the most part but it is so unpredictable now borderline ridiculous!  I would gladly trade you the smoothness of this new meter for the old stuttering/jumping meter in a heart beat if we could go back to the way the game operated before the update!!!!  

  You guys must have a system restore/backup for before the update in case the sh!t hit the fan..  Well the sh!t has hit the fan ICON and ppl are getting really aggravated with this game!  We know it takes some time but its been a week and you guys are still keeping us in the dark!  Telling us that you are tinkering with it does not promote confidence that WGT is doing anything but sitting on their hands!!!  We would like to know what you are doing/planning on doing to get this fixed and even an estimated time frame would be nice!!!

  I want to go to that secret place where WGT brass goes to during the day.  Must be a rabbit hole they go down, where there are pretty flowers that smell nice all the time, it never rains yet everything is lush and green, where all the animals love each other, and no one dies or is sick.  Ahhhhhhhhhh, Lala land must be nice.

  The green dots speeds seem to be back to normal but my putts seem to break more now (I can't tell if its the dots or if its my putting thats off).  Are the green dot speeds slightly slower than normal? It would be good to know so I can adjust my putting strategy.
