  What is the worst change WGT has instituted since its' inception ( no fair sayin' "the CC clashes" ).

  I'm goin' to have to go with them doin' away with the end of game chat. The social aspect of the game took a huge hit on that one, for no apparent reason. The few meager seconds it took to exchange pleasantries at the end of a game couldn't possibly have generated a noticeable increase in profit. In fact, chat during game play, probably increased more to off set it. I'd like to see the end of game chat re-instated ( but , then again , I'd like to see a lot of things ).

  Would be happy to see the in-game chat go back to the way it used to be where you weren't interrupted by screen changes.

  End of game chat is missed - insanity you have to tee off then say goodbyes just in case.....

  But for realism.....super rated clubs and balls

  Clashes and stubbornness to make it skill based and equitable

  Par three/five courses counting in stats

  Focus boosts

  New Course limited to one per year (best of's excluded)

  Just to name a few.

  In My Opinion ,

   As a Reformed Troll , It is not what I think what WGT did to try .  But I must say that I miss the old times of Fun in the forums ,

  Riddle me that Bat Man .

  Who is the holder of the decoder ring now ?

  Agree with drmoose and Jim. 

   

  Ok ,  I'm now forced to edit  :  Hhahaha

   

  Agree with drmoose , Jim , and Paul.  Red tee CC tournament Champs...Hhaha... Put them in your conditions with 20+ and you'll quickly find the comedy in which Paul references. Sad really. I don't mean that in a rude way , it has done them no favors.

  Agreed...they do away with the short, after game chat time; but keep the laughable community spotlight. It serves no purpose.

  One of their better ideas was to reinstate the 19th hole.

  The end of game chat wasn't a deliberate change by WGT.

  It was (and I know this is hard to believe)  a glitch introduced during an update downtime. I asked about it in here and Icon said he didn't see a resolution to the probem happening.

  There's one huge change for the worse, in fact it stripped the game of most of it's 'sporting' integrity and that is, allowing baby tees in CC tournaments count as ranked rounds.

  Overnight tiers and averages meant nothing.

  Anyone playing alt shot with strangers will have seen many, many of these charlatans. Legends, TLs and Champs that couldn't hit a cow on the backside with a banjo.

  There are, obviously, more bad changes but as an honest legend creeping ever so slowly towards TL, it's the one that really grinds my gears.

  Thanks for that info Paul, I wasn't aware of that, yet surely, it shouldn't be too much of an issue to fix. I truly believe it's one of their major screw ups that detracts from the enjoyment of the game , It's almost like playin' 18, only to find that the clubhouse is closed. Where's the fun in that ?
