  How do we best repair, maintain and continually improve the PC browser version of WGTgolf for our customers .

  Go to motion swing, lose the jumpy unreliable meter ,no need for flash, Kinda hard to cheat also.

  Then also the scale is gone, and it truly becomes a feel game. Have to admit  it would be a lot of fun.

  RyjaTybas:

  First impressions are not good.

  Best of Four has gone from too hard to too easy, with too many boring holes (St Andy's 1 and Beth 1 to name a couple).

  Best of three is very disappointing. Instead of interesting holes from Whistler and Cabo - we've got holes from Bandon!!!! Why on earth repeat holes from the par 3 course??? 

  Have still to try the 5s, but the whole exercise seems like a waste of time.

  WGT asked us to include Bandon holes (which were NOT in our original submission) and told us we could not include Cabo, Whistler, and Oak (which WERE in our original submission).

  I think most of us should know that by now and understand.  I must admit it would have been great if every hole was available.

  Great job :)

  No change for me with this maintenance, can't finish an alternate game

  Always one of 4 players with 3 disconnections....

  The problems start (with us anyway) when the players in the group click the concede hole or gimmies, concede buttons.  

  So we all play out the hole now regardless of how far away from the pin. Most of time we get a full game in.

  60 seconds isn't nearly enough time for us alt shot players to gab about little johnny's soccer game or Bill's fishing trip.

   

  Agree...but they said default time, can it be set to 90? (haven't played AS since the change).

   

  Edit:

   

  Just checked, timer can be set to 90 by the host.

  They had a downtime; they added some drivers and gave us 3 new mixtape courses. I don't see any problem here. I see absolutely no point in the wailing and gnashing of teeth going on here, mostly about what they didn't address in a few hours last night.

  The repairs, improvements and additions we would all like to see were never going to happen overnight. One of the mods has stated that those kind of things had been put on hold (money was tight) in the recent past. Topgolfs involvement may solve that problem.

  People seem to have unrealistically high expectations for scheduled downtimes and this one especially. The ink isn't even dry on the contract, they don't even know how much sugar Chad likes in his coffee yet.

  Hopefully when the dust settles on all of this, people will be working to answer the question -

  How do we best repair, maintain and continually improve the PC browser version of WGTgolf for our customers .

   

  Thanks Paul,

  These things will happen incrementally but as you have said, they will take some time of trial and error :)
