The Golf Club Xbox One

Im not sure about this game.

It feels completely empty. They have the physics right but theres so many things wrong with the game.

Dont bother with the course designer if you want to create a course youve played on before. Dont get me wrong its a great tool for creating fake courses but impossible to create a real one.

I wish it was easy to get refunds

Very harsh criticism indeed. Bugs are getting ironed out at the moment and each evening since release when I've sat down to have a round or two, it's visibly better than on release. The course creator is great and I don't understand how you can say that you can't create a course you've played on, it's difficult, but very much possible as I've already created my old home course Forrester Park which DaveyC2K2 played last night and he was very impressed with what I had done, its not bang on but it's not far off.

The only problems I've had with the course creator at the moment is the elevation changes, very difficult to use and the odd patches of water here and there which are proving difficult to remove. Other than that, it's brilliant.

Tried to create my own course but it was impossible due to the sculpt land feature being bugged, That and creating a certain type of green is difficult. Also if you want to add bushes or long grass then forget it as adding pretty much 5 blades of long grass at a time is ridiculous. Like i said though its a great tool for making fake courses.

The game is clearly still in beta, the game holds huge potential but should never have been released the way it is.
 
I downloaded this last night and played a couple of holes on the PS4. Ive missed having no golf games on the PS4 so at least i can have my fix now :D. Will post up later my username if anyone fancies a round tonight although it will be about 10pm :fore:
 
Watched a video on the course last night. The bloke making it said that recreating an exact course is not impossible, but very difficult and he said it took him 1 hour just to get the first hole more or less perfect. But he said he is learning faster ways of doing it now and getting a bit quicker, but he thinks it will take in total about 8-10 hours to do a near as perfect replica of his home course. S anyone expecting to recreate their home course in a couple of hours will get a shock.

does look good though and will definitely be downloading it and like has been said already it will only get better over time.
 
Got it yesterday and already hooked on the course designer mode. Figured out a really easy way to build a fantastic course without using the random generator. The course is laid out and the hills, trees and water are in place. Had a couple of whacks round it and it plays really nice. Now all I have to is shape the greens, manicure the fairways, put the bunkers in place, build a clubhouse, put course signs in, build bridges, put in cart paths, plant some flowers etc etc.

So anyone up for a game sometime? My Xbox LIVE is SLIMAIDY
 
Just got this myself and still getting used to the xbox one. Great wee game for the money. Currently trying to create my home course but need to get to grips with the designer. Have started with a flat course and have placed the hole layouts. Need to scuplt the terrain and then the greens and finally add in hazards and other details. Now I need to stop over estimating the height changes in it. Placed the first tee at 40 meters above the lowest point of the hole and it was like a cliff face! thinking about it now 15-20m is more like it :D At the moment it looks pretty good from above :)

Can add me if anyone wants. Palindromic Bob.

Patch for the game on Xbox One due out tomorrow. Should fix loads of the bugs. Really looking forward to the course designer finally working properly.
 
Hi, finally got this game for Xbox one!

Just wondering where there is a list of controls. I can't seem to change the distance of my shot (before hitting it).

Not sure if its possible or not.

Hopefully have a shot on the course designer later!

It's not Tiger Woods golf. It's a simulator where you have to change distance by feel on the length of backswing, like when playing for real.
