  Joined WGT in early 2014 and game was great, i cant honestly remember any issues but as i say i was new so maybe couldn`t spot them......then December 14 came and issues with blue screens and invites not working............then bang!!!!!

  Got to be linked with December 14, something must have changed WGT. I aint too technical so can you please think of what changed from that date as when you fixed invites, something went wrong.

  It was way before that Bubbs. 2012 was the last time this game was great. Then wgt's greed kicked in and it's been getting progressively worse ever since.

  Last time it was truly great, I was a cave man and my wife was foraging for berries and other wild fruit.. man those were the days, let me tell you!

  Haha, no seriously, I've been playing since 2013, and up until late 2014 the game seemed satisfactory to me. Since Xmas last year, I've seen the green dots go mad, crazy fast then just changing speed, which does appear to be much improved this last week, but then since the 7/31 update my client, which almost never crashed, crashes more than once an hour, as well wgt just seems fit to boot me and reset my config all the time now too..

  This latest update has been the worst hands down, with these issues and now camera issues, as well, the VEM or whatever you call it seems to be in overdrive, with very strange random distance errors and strange backspin errors popping up a lot now too.. Wgt if you are reading this, don't ignore your large user-base which are asking you to please fix these things. Thank you.

  I have the same issue, no spin, low flight, used to carry 285yds with the level 33 Calaways, now carrying 250-260. No spin on the greens either.

  Oh, and my average is up about 3 strokes.

  Playing is now a challenge, a frustrating one, what happened to the fun.

  I've seen quite a few of these post about Maxthon users ^^.   IMO you're choice of browser has very little to do with bad meters.  It's all on WGT,

  Not sure about that. I have used Maxthon for a long, long time and i very rarely have any meter issues at all. In fact i just finished a stroke round with only one issue related to the update....zoom view. No other issues at all. And, i can live with that one till they fix it. Game played fine. Regardless of the browser you use or the computer you have, from personal experience, I don't believe all problems are WGT's. I know they have some with the new update, but none i've seen mentioned other than the zoom affected my game.

  Cheers, Fwys & Greens

  Stroke play is impossible this afternoon. Been putzing around on best of putts for something reasonably resembling the game. Been here since 2010, usually a reasonably satisfied customer. This is the worst I've seen.

  I've seen quite a few of these post about Maxthon users ^^.   IMO you're choice of browser has very little to do with bad meters.  It's all on WGT, especially after their 7/31 patch.  Maxthon has always been one of the worst browsers possible for me.  Pre patch FF gave me PERFECT meter ever time.

  So on the one hand you're saying that browser choice has very little to do with any meter issues and then you immediately follow up by saying Maxthon doesn't work for you but Firefox is great? That may well be your experience but it's certainly not everyone's and your explanation is a a tad contradictory sir.

  For my part Maxthon had always been great until the combination of the 7/31 update and upgrading to Windows 10. I persevered for a day but found the gameplay gapping as many have reported. Switched to Chrome and then to Maxthon Nitro and meter has been smooth and gameplay uninterrupted since then.
