Crosshair22:Constant disconnects and numerous game play problems.
No disagreement from me.
Crosshair22: #1 Why do wind conditions have to be so hard?
At masters tier the wind is not hard, but like green speeds, they increase as you progress through the tiers. Players of all ages can score low, so is one way the game can make it a little harder. However players who take the time to learn the game, have worded out a formula to play the winds....perhaps you could too (hint - there is a lot of help in the forums).
Crosshair22: Putt meter is a little odd.. Hit the line and putts sometimes go off line. Hit before line and putt goes in. What's with that?
Whilst all clubs have varying precision, I get the feeling you have not learned the art of reading the line. This takes a lot of practice and even the best players come unstuck (not to dissimilar to real golf!
Crosshair22: 3 Why does the swing meter have to be in front of golfer, in the way of putting line of sight?
)
Valid point but there are 3 meters you can use.
Crosshair22: There are better golf sims out there, but the one I usually play has shut down. Too bad though. It was far better than this and you didn't have to pay through the nose to do it.
I respectfully disagree, there are not better golf sims, as the ones that have been out there since the inception of WGT were far inferior in terms of the game physics (hence the reference to cartoon golf). That is the reason they no longer exist - too easy so players get bored, and not financially viable. After all, golf games are a big market - plenty of room for more than one game! BTW - my 7 yo son played TW at the hardest settings, 20 under was common - compare apples with apples.
So bear in mind, WGT is a company with the intention to make profits. Yes the business model is to allow free play (and you can still score well using 100% free equipment from the kiddies tees)and hope players upgrade. Nothing wrong with that and the consumer can then choose (and do it for free via the offers if you have the time).
Crosshair22: I know thru many years of playing that there are cheaters in these games that circumvent play in order to score better.
Agreed and sadly true, but I do not gamble, so IMO, they are just cheating themselves and others who do gamble.
Now some advice for the OP - do not waste your money on buying some of the top level balls - you do NOT need them. Your clubs are mostly low level so you will never get full use out of them.
You also play from masters tees, so distance is not such an issue. Try the callys and the game will be more palatable, especially if you lose a ball.
Practice your short game, your scrambling and bunker play is not good, and then learn your putting. If you want to have a game, I am happy to have a hit if I am on - I am not great but understand a bit and can give some tips.
I see a lot of players who blame the game....but often it is that they do not understand that WGT is not easy to master.
