The Golf Club Closed Beta Impressions (Q&A Inside)

[TheBleedingRed21]

I don't pay attention to any requirements as I have a gaming desktop and laptop that can run pretty much anything. If the laptop can't, my desktop will. Lol

I would assume once it's optimized, low wouldn't require too much as they'd want to get it to as many people as possible.

Bluengold, sure would like to see new gameplay videos of most recent build. Also, have you tried SmokinJo's no green gird challenge at Diamond Head?

Maybe you could record that round and post on youtube? As always, thanks for sharing info with us non-beta testers (step children)

I would like to add this:

Whatever country club we do, TOUR, tournament, whatever...

We need to have aids OFF as much as possible BUT at the same time:

If guys can only play on LOW settings, they will be disadvantaged at reading greens while my 1920x1080 resolution would allow better shading and breaks.

Since this is cross platform, consoles won't have to worry, but I would advise posting a warning for lower resolution players.

With the aids on, I think we will see -18 scoring, people will always figure out how much break it is cause of the arrows going slow or fast, without it, much more challenge and practice required.

I completely agree!

I'll be speaking with Anthony Kyne from the development team at the top of the hour. Happy to add some questions to my list if you have any you would like to get answered!

#1 question from me if you care..

Will they add more grass options/colors to the editor to differ the courses?

#2

Any estimate if we can get multiple pin locations?

#3

Any plans for 27 hole courses with options to pick what 2 9 to play?

#4

Been asked around community, but do they plan to have a true aim option? Where it does not zoom in and you have to aim from golfer's perspective?

Actually I literally just got done playing Diamond Head with no green grid on, and shot +3(should have been +1) I really enjoy the extra challenge, as it slows the game down and forces you to think. I will try to get another video up tonight, but the last couple of attempts have resulted in corrupted files -

All I want to know if the ball trail will be out of the full version. Thanks!
