Well, to be fair, I haven't played a TW/PGA game since about 2010 and I bet I could pick up this game, play on Tour mode and shoot no worse than a +5. Once you've played one of these EA golf games you can pretty much pick any of them up and do fairly well. Especially after a brief tutorial as a refresher.

I wouldn't get down in the dumps without playing the game first and seeing for yourself about the difficulty. What is easy for someone isn't so easy for someone else.

Fair point - I agree - Have to try it myself for sure

2nd for this please!!

As stated earlier in this thread, EA haven't changed the Gameplay to any great degree so it stands to reason that seasoned players will be posting good scores. If you're used to competing on the hardest difficulty on previous versions then you'll likely be a solid player on this version. It seems some people want to play an initial round of 20 Over Par to convince themselves this game is realistic!!! If you're good at the game, you're good at the game. I'm sure Rory doesn't start a new season thinking I need to score badly in my 1st competition to know it's going to be a competitive year.

I'm downloading it now. I haven't played an EA PGA game in a long time so we'll see

Anyone know if you can have 2 players local and still play online with someone else? If so how? I downloaded the game but don't seem to see that option.

Just saw on someone's stream that you can customize the swing difficulty and by default on Tour difficulty, the swing difficulty is set to 'normal'. If that makes any sense.

So again, good news for offline, but I really hope they crank up the difficulty of the Tour mode swing online soon after release.
