  Hi everyone:)

  Here are some of the details of what happened overnight :)

   

  • TaylorMade Black R1 – The player-favorite black R1 driver is BACK on WGT! It’s only here for a limited time, so be sure to get it while you can – unlocking at Levels 11, 48 and 93. PLUS, there’s a new unlock at Level 99 giving top players solid all-around performance and max distance
  • TaylorMade R15 Hybrid – Get the latest virtual hybrid from TaylorMade to hit faster and longer with more precision and forgiveness. Unlocks at Levels 43 and 82 for top players.
  • TaylorMade R15 Full Set – Upgrade your bag with the newest full club set from TaylorMade, including R15 Driver, 3 Wood and Hybrid, and RSi Irons to hit faster, longer and more precise. Buying as a full set also saves you credits with the special discounted price
  • Country Club Improvements – See new Officer permissions, including the ability to email all club members, invite new members, change club messages and select different tee boxes for each hole in CC tournaments.
  • New Camera Views for Putting – Added multiple camera angles for better views on your putts.

  Fixed Issues

  • “Last Ball” warning – Fixed an issue that incorrectly displayed a message that players were on their last ball, when they still have more of that type available 
  • Stand Bag blocking “Last Ball” message – Fixed issue that did not display the “Last Ball” warning when a Stand Bag Plus was equipped

  First thing I see is a f*cking video ad (20, 30 secs) at each new game (3+1 until now).

  Very inviting NOT!

  #2: Chambers Bay available for CC stroke play tourneys - very nice!
  (tried the "Custom Teeboxes", too)

  Hello WGTicon,

   

  very disappointed to discover no more camera control when another player is putting.

   

  Multiple camera angles on own putt is excessive and confusing - lots of whistles and bells but nothing of substance - change for the sake of change ?

   

  What about fixing the issue I have - Game crashes when I look at player info in the game window.

  In the bag that holds 4 sets of clubs you/I can't change sets ...I'm stuck with the set I use for CTTH

  Hope ya fix it quickly so I can play again...

  The new putting angles are awful, can you let us turn it off to just keep the front and reverse views please.

  It is time to have my shot,

  I have lived in WGT world for a number of years now & have read thousands of forum posts hammering the mods,techs,fixers and what nots. I rarely add fuel to the fire as my enjoyment is not phased (although I often get frustrated) by the odd glitch or three.

  The putting camera angles are absolute rubbish.

  I am a long way from being a champion putter, but regard myself to be above average. All the new angles shown are only designed to screw ones brain.

  Can we at least have the option to return to just forward & reverse angles if we choose, and take the new angles if it helps make a crucial putt.

  GOT THE YIPS ALL OF A SUDDEN.

  It seems that hitting the space bar switches between front and reverse so will have to use that from now on.

  WGTIcon,

  I have to agree with PTrentor and the others. I see No use for the new putting angles, except more confusion. Can we turn that off, and go back to just the forward and recerse views, or explain the new views, and how they are best utilized?
