  Please tell me what are you doing. This was the best golf simulator I ever played. It was fun, now not so much. Why do you change things, I understand ya want to make make a better game, but for the God's sake test what you change. I understand it's all about money ! I will spend, like I do already $100 a month, but damn give me a product thats worth that.

  I have a bad feeling WGT wont be around much longer, and that is sad.

   

  just saying LSquire....

  Well, I have to say thank you LSquire.  I mean - $100 a month?  Wow!   WGT should bend over backwards for you.

  But, I do think WGT will be here for the long haul.  They make the $ and all is good.

  One clash after the other. And selling the the expensive Nike M putters a few years early to their most loyal customers. It looks like WGT wants or needs some extra cash right now.  Hopefully they use it to properly program and test the urgently needed non flash replacement game client program for the PC players.

  I've been reading that nonsense since the day I joined this game 5 years ago.

  It was bull$hit back then and is still bull$hit today.

  I'm a new player here and something I have noticed is the stealing of golf balls by WGT. When ever I buy the more expensive balls and make a bad shot I get a lie that I can't shoot out of, there is no drop just endless loss of the ball. When I use they cheap or free balls this does not happen. Beginning to think this is a bigger rip off then zynga! pissed off player!

  They have.  They ran Tiger Woods Online into the ground.  Now they're battling against Perfect Golf and some other golf game who's name escapes me.

  To date, they've defeated all their competitors.

  I remember when Honda, Toyota and Hyundai first came on to the market....they were absolute crap, but they were dirt cheap. They cornered the market based solely on price and, of course, as quality improved, prices went up. 

  WGT offers a "free" gaming experience in HD...and this is solely to capture the market and avoid any potential competition. Of course, as you want to become competitive, or improve your scoring to enjoy the game more, you have to obtain better equipment, balls etc...whether it's buying it, or sitting in front of videos for hours slowly "earning" it, is up to the player. 

  None of this has to do with the glitches we are now experiencing, though. To properly address the major problems, it will require WGT to invest $$$ in new and improved servers and other technological upgrades.  With a cornered market, there is no real pressure on them to do so.
