    Usually people took their frustation on pets, children or  wife, why WGT is picking us?

    By my clock, it is now the 28th Feb. That is nearly a 3 full days since this bullshhit has happened. And yet, we have not heard one official word from WGT as far as i know.

    3 days people, think about it. They usually get back after a day when something seriously screws up, but not this time. 

    It's the weekend, it didn't get fixed on Friday.  You expecting something to happen before Monday??

    Remember who you are dealing with?

    But also remember that most members probably didn't even see this junk until Friday night. Unlike most updates that happen on Wednesday night / Thursday morning. This one happened Thursday night / Friday morning. As Thursday is one of my nights off I was one of the first to see it and that was almost 5:00 am Friday morning. So it really has only been a little over 2 days.Hopefully Monday they will see how much the vast majority of us dislike the flashing text and remove it or at least give us an off button.

    +1 . Also there are 2 different threads going on about this update garbage as well . Players are also complaining about this in the Release notes threads . So come Monday morning WGT will get a double portion of feed back on this illustrious brain fart .So hopefully by Tuesday or late Wednesday it will be resolved . The key word being HOPEFULLY . 

     

    We can only hope that is what they do on Monday.  I saw Icon on and off all day Friday, I am sure it got reported on Friday. Then maybe on Tuesday or Wednesday I can remove the starter ball, put the Callaways back in the start playing again.  Until then single hole with starters for points for CC.

    Also there are more then 2 different threads talking about this, scattered throughout the forums, under different headings.

    I highly doubt that they are even remotely concerned about reading any of this stuff. As a matter of fact, I'd be willing to bet that the only time they read these posts is when their automated trouble shooting system suggests that they should look into an issue. And of course that does not mean that they will jump all over it. And if something in the game causes someone to have a seizure, then I would say there will be a new owner soon.

    Just one concern with it, With the sudden shockwave of light like that, would it be dangerous for people who suffer from epileptic fits.  Can it be turned off.  Just wondering.

    That and the bright light hurting the eyes of people that are ultra sensitive ti bright lights. When i first saw it when I landed on the fairway was a new award of some kind because that is sort of how the awards pop up on screen.

    And No I find no way to turn it off.

    That too I suppose.   I think it might be a good idea to have an on/off switch for that.

    The usual whiny players... In the GAME SETTING there is a choice: FLASH QUALITY. just set it on low and the light won't disturb you anymore! lol

    Wrong. I always use the low flash setting and the  exploding graphics are still way too bright.

     

    "The usual whiny players"  Good on ya Tamsach

    Setting the flash settings to low also affects the graphics of the game and makes it look terrible.

    Here it is the new Vice president.......

    So Tamsach, what you are saying is that you don't like being proved wrong? Right? The flash quality has nothing to do with how bright something appears to be in the game!! Let me guess, it was the flash part in flash quality that got you confused huh? Wow!

     

    I WAS KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!  ARE YOU A NEW WGT EMPLOYEE?!

    Well I did read almost all the posts in here, and not to my surprise there seems to be a lot of consternation going on. Gee I wonder why? It boggles the mind to think that after all these years, WGT would have gotten it right. But I guess it's just wishful thinking. Why would you do that WGT? Too much to ask to just fix the existing problems? Creating a new one is just a slap in the face to all of us who really like the game, But you who take our money and put out a product that has too many bugs. Get it together Please!!
