- Online modes besides stroke/match play (where's the Skins? The Bingo-Bango-Bongo?)
- No wait times as advertised
- Not having bushes/trees-animals pop in
- Actual licenses tournaments (like previous versions of the game)
- To have a feature set equal to (or at least close) to the last-gen version
- To have true Next-Gen graphics
- A Tour calendar
- A good putting system
(I could go on)


Sports Gaming Universe game it 6/10
IGN (biggest EA shills on the planet) only gave it 5.5/10

It's... not good.

I'll say it again, I would have gladly paid $100 for a TW14 with updated graphics and no load times.

I trust the developers in saying for us to "be patient" regarding updates/DLC...can't wait to see what they have in store.

I tried playing the battlefield 4 course but it was very annoying because there was a bunch of Shadows on the green and I had no idea where the hole was. Also having the issue with always being slow and hitting the ball short.

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Available Today - Post Your Impressions Here

Turned on the game last night to play Bay Hill. My wife, who watches golf every weekend, said, "Wow, that looks real." I play The Golf Club as well. Graphics are better on RM, IMHO. I like both versions, but prefer RM because of the ability to play on actual PGA tour stops.

I just hope the Devs come through on their promise to add content. It is somewhat bare bones, but fun right now as I build up my golfer. No regrets preordering/buying the game (PS4). Just bummed I have to work today so can't play again until this evening.

I feel the same. The graphics are pretty good and the game plays well IMO. Luckily for me i am bald (i shave my head), so i was able to create a near life life version of myself in the game.

I think if the developers add a few minor tweaks here and there to the game, offer more created and PGA tour stop courses, then i'll be happy.

So hitting zoom takes you from the tee with the sweeping camera view to zoom in to the course where you want to hit the ball? My only real complaint last night was not being able to see where exactly my ball would land.

Also... I am having trouble with understanding a full swing power versus a swing where I dont need full power. Is the circle on the bottom middle of the screen the indicator to start your back swing/ front swing???

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Available Today - Post Your Impressions Here

I was able to hop on last night to play a bit before bed. I can honestly say that I enjoyed it. I realize it is missing quite a bit of stuff, but I'm holding out hope that EA releases some content later on. I also nailed a hole in one with Spieth very first round at Chambers Bay! The fact that you don't have to wait for loading between holes is also awesome. I flew through a 18 hole round doing every hole and it took maybe 20 minutes. Will get into it a lot more the next few days but I was happy with it. No game is ever gonna be perfect but as someone who just likes to watch and play some golf I had a blast.

Re: Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Available Today - Post Your Impressions Here

So far I am really enjoying this game Tee to green, but good God I hate the putting in the game. I'm playing on Tour Pro since it feels so much more natural to me for shaping shots and love how the ball reacts to what I'm doing and the things I try. But the play on and around the greens just is a mess to me. Perhaps I need more time with the game, but yeah that is almost a deal breaker for me
