  OK, i have had time to digest what has happened.    Here is my thoughts.

  1.   People wanted more courses at a faster rate.  This is a way of which this can be accomplished.   Maybe 6 or more courses per year.

  2.   A fee at which i know some have said they would be fine with, but was more along the lines of a monthly fee.   With that said maybe as more TruGOlf courses are released this may become option.   1000 cr. to play all courses per month or what have you.  Currently 100 cr per play seems steep.

  3.  Would like to see Priestess's suggestion come to light that the 100 cr.  would give you 24 hr access

  4.  Would like to see an option for a player to pay for 1 or all golfers in group or maybe an option for loser pays the fee.

  5.  Lastly, its an option, not everyone's cup of tee, and no one is forced to play.   You will get two new full HD stroke play courses rather soon (Congressional and Royal St. George) so be patient and stick to those if this is not what you want or need

  Cheers,

  Have you tried to play since this mess started? Five games with player drops and freezes. I have alredy payed more than enough for jumpy meters and slow loads. Keep the junk where it belongs, on play station and x-box!!!

  An absolute joke and i am now 1 step closer t quitting the game forever......just had a bunch of buds together on Skype and we chatted about this. Not 1 of them is happy and i think due to this fact 4 of them are quitting. A couple  of guys are going to donate there credits to their buds via mpc's.

  Way to go WGT......i think maybe next time open up a forum with a vote tab on these types of issues so people can give you feedback before you just dump it on the membership.

  Your recent decisions of payouts and this ridiculous scam are simply pissing everyone off. Throw in constant meter and prize or no one getting their prize payouts and you can throw this game out the window.........depreciating .Keep it up and you won't be able to sell this company for a sleeve of Callaways......

  Here's an Idea. Why not have modders make courses for consideration and then kicked back part of that fee to the modder, because thats what playing cabo felt like. It seems that way back Tiger Woods game allowed people the ability to design your own courses. This course felt just like that game. simple graphics but plays ok.. Have members design their own courses and get part of the pay. Great income for both WGT and members. I Played cabo it was ok but to play this all the time for a buck a time, no. Give me a lifetime membership to play this course or others for a small fee

  The only motivation I see behind all this is greed.

  WGT ain't gonna be happy till they turn all of us upside down and shake every $1 they can out of our pockets.

  Maybe I'm wrong but I just have a gut feeling about all of this.

  XP Boost ....callaways from $2.5 a sleeve.....now a 9 holer at $1 a round. <---------there's a clear pattern IMHO.

  I'm wondering what will come first......a monthly membership fee or the introduction of green fees for playing BPB, St A, Kiawah or Oakie. I'm thinking monthly membership's somewhere just around the corner...most likely when Congressional and Royal St G's are live.

  This.

  I don't know what WGT is so paranoid about sharing their plans with us, and asking us for input before making changes.  In case you didn't realize, you are stealing TWOs blueprints, NOT the other way around.  Pretty sure you don't have to worry about your trade secrets getting out to the competition.

  I'm guessing if you put up a poll asking if we'd want to play TWO via WGT's servers, for 1$ a round, the poll results would be 99:1 against the idea.  Just like your RG payouts that only catered to the top 5% of people playing in them under your short lived payout structure.  Both of these brilliant ideas could of been given a 2nd thought before wasting your time on implementation.  Your staff is small enough without wasting what little resources you have on stuff we don't want.

  Yes i have and likely will continue to play it from time to time..  You run your mouth before you know any facts.  And just so happens you have not completed a round (only ctth) at the new course, so come on bud, do your research before you run your mouth off.    

  No one is telling you to pay to play, so keep it to yourself and keep playing the free HD courses.

  Just saying,

  Can WGT survive with blunders like this one????????? Did they actually think we were going to like and pay for cartoon golf after they have done such a GREAT job on their HD game..

  Hey WGT,

   

  You can take your new pay to play golf courses and stick them where the sun don't shine. Myself and MANY others are NOT going to pay!
