Isn’t this just The Golf Club with a different name? TGC was already a 2K product, they just didn’t call it that. Looks like they have some PGA licensing though so that could be really cool if they have courses, players, and equipment. I fear it will be absolutely loaded with micro transactions like their NBA series, but I’ll give it a go when it releases.

I think TGC had some courses and tourneys but no players

I just bought it for $4 and you’re correct. Several courses, but no equipment or golfers that I’ve seen so far. Putting us so hard for me in this game lol

I'm still trying to get my very first character in TW 2004 to 100% completion.

I come back to him every few years.

I suck a putting too.

Hopefully being an officially 2K game now they don't mess up their online community, which judging by Twitter should be fine.

TGCTOURS is probably the best run community for sports video games.

I had both TGC and TGC2 and the rough and bunkers are way too penal. You can't hit the ball to the green from the rough or fairway bunker which is unrealistic IMO. I watch the PGA Tour regularly and players do it all the time.

You definitely can. It just takes practice, practice, and more practice. If you watch some of the top TGC Tours players, you'll see they they can do all of these things quite frequently.

All the gameplay ive seen looks great. It looks more challenging. If you dont have a well timed swing, it punishes you much more. Makes it seem more IRL. Now keep in mind this is just from me watching gameplay on twitch. I could very well pick it up and get right back into into my groove after playing tgc for hours upon hours.

The one thing im curious about is if you need ps+ in order to play with online socities.

Anybody played yet? Thoughts?

i played it and already got my refund... its the same as golf club with some licensed golf courses slapped on.

-no 3 click swing
-hideous and forced tutorial, u cant skip it...
-creating ur avatar/golfer is outdated... i still prefer tiger woods ea 2008 player creation over this.
-true swing is crap as this is the only deciding factor on how good ur player will be... there are no further stats like power hitter or sand specialist and so on. u either learn true swing or u are doomed.
- i could not finish 18 holes in one go as i rage quit because a mouse slip or low concentration.
- the game is very infected by monetization.
- the environment/golf courses look good.

I’m so surprised in 2020 golf games don’t look better graphically. ThereS not a whole lot going on besides a character swinging by a club. I feel it should be driving game level good, graphically.

If I ever get the urge to play a golf game it will forever be Hot Shots golf

Picked it up yesterday, played a few rounds so far, pretty enjoyable, game looks great, I played a little of The Golf Club 2019 and while similar of course as a sequel I feel this is a good step up

So... you bought a sequel, and were surprised when the gameplay was similar to the previous versions? That’s the way every sports game works
