    It seems that for every glitch solved 2 new glitches come back in its place, and the only place where that can go is a complete meltdown somewhere in the near future.

    WGT, what are you going to do about that?

    What they always do... NOTHING.... They do not handle their own customer service, they subcontract that out to zendesk.com..... SO ...if they don't even handle their own customer service, what makes you think they handle their own programming?... ~laughs~... these parasites have basically plagiarized EA Sports Golf games.... that's it... all these sycophants that suck up and kiss WGT's ass in the hopes of reward, think that these idiots are good programmers, however, they are sadly mistaken...they are plagiarizing hacks... but most people here are just ignorant sycophants who would suck the stool from a infected bovines' ass if it made them feel better about themselves. Buy Perfect Parallel or PS4 or XBOX1, you can find much better times on the LAN operations of those games...

    Hi

    some of the glitches we seen, are not with the game but servers. I know you guys dont care how or why, and you shouldn't, but I just wanted to point that out anyway:)

    I dont think people care where the glitches come from, the game is messing up more and more. And it does not matter where they origin, they have to be dealt with, in game programming or servers

     

    Take for instance that newest one: the blue screen freeze out of certain Ready go tournaments. Is that a programming error or a server error?

    Or another one that still is not repaired: the very fast / tournament nomination of greenspeed

    Perhaps it's time to spend some money and replace those worn out servers that causes most of the problems!

    Fair shout and thanks for pointing it out.  Accepted the end user just wants the product working and that is your end, but no harm explaining either.

    Have you guys played with something game wise though?  Maybe just one of those days but seems a few times today seen some pretty weird shots.  

    I appreciate WTFs happen, but just today saw what seemed like a few obvious can't be me that one.  9 iron 125 yard shots limping 118 yards (think I know that one after 1000s of pick ya nose after hitting and seeing it go 125 yards).  

    Maybe just one them days / whatever, but just asking.

    Yesterday the game was dying, today it's a hydra. I can't wait to see what it transforms into tomorrow. Yes it has problems but it's still the greatest golf simulation.

    WGTIcon - Server glitches don't explain WGT's callous disregard for the customer. The servers didn't outright lie to me and then ignore the thread for 9 months. The servers didn't write the email that said they would not even place a phone call to a supplier on behalf of WGT customers because even an inquiry on a poorly performing survey or apparently fraudulent one would be the same as "throwing the supplier under a bus." Yet WGT has no qualms about throwing us under a bus. Server glitches also didn't refuse to apologize for poor customer treatment.

    Problems with the game play, whether they are due to poor programming on your end or the failure of servers, are still the fault of WGT. The culture of  disregard for your customer spills over into the other areas of the company because management routinely allows it to with management's own poor performance. When management won't demand the company perform well to the customers and instead focuses on short-term profit, the rank and file workers will do a poor job. The results are glitches and unhappy customers.

    It's easy to blame the servers, the ignorant customers, the dog spilling coffee on your keyboard, the alignment of the planets, etc., etc. It's a lot harder to turn your gaze inward and look at yourself with an analytical and critical eye.

    Wgt needs to address game performance and customer issues. We don't want excuses. We want WGT to demand more from its people, starting with management, and give us a better company and game.

    Blue screen, white screen with exclamation mark, wgt has encountered a problem etc etc. In other words kicked out of the game again. Happen 3 times and you are out of the game and probably have lost your pass. Many other glitches in the game too numerous to mention.

    This week I have set up  shots and dinged them only to find them shooting off at a right angle.  The most amazing of them all have twice driven off the tee only to find instead of a driver I have been given a wedge.  None of the glitches I have mentioned can be blamed on the servers.  We pay to play this game and it is not good enough from WGT.

                                                                            Dobbo.
