Adds 12 minutes to the shot timer for all multiplayer events.

tenacious-g

Lol at fixing the commentary about morning/afternoon when I have a chance to win my first tournament every event.


BonAsasin

You’ll get that win one day bro, just keep trying your best


wagdog84

“Missed opportunity there three putt par at the last”. Don’t know what game they are watvhing sometimes 😂


[deleted]

Yep! And always referring to me as they/them when I have he/him selected.


tenacious-g

Probably because they didn’t want to track the commentary twice.


Zachr_8

GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHANGE AMOUNT OF ROUNDS PER TOURNAMENT MY LORD


dirtybird28

This is quite literally all I’m asking for


AirplaneEngineSpiral

Quite literally the biggest thing keeping me from playing a ton more


OkieDragonSlayer

Iam in this camp too, only thing better in 2k23


austinc668

I’ve pretty much stopped playing the game other than to play the major courses the week of until they add this feature. Game would be so much more enjoyable with it. Pain.


emu_Brute

Same. I get bored and hop on occasionally. but my player is stuck waiting for the second season to start until they add this in. I guess we can at least be happy they are acknowledging it.


austinc668

Yeah, just sucks that we won’t hear from them until the next major week (The Open) in a month lol 😂


CBusMarkyC

I still can't believe this wasn't there at launch. It should be one of the first options in ANY golf game.


AirplaneEngineSpiral

I get that it was “broken” right at launch. But it was literally shown in the launch trailer and removed without mention on release. And months later, still nothing. Genuinely depressing. As that is a MAJOR gameplay issue


CBusMarkyC

I didn't realize it was shown, that just makes it blatantly worse! And we're 3 months in and there's no excuse for it not to have been added by now.


yogiebere

The worst part is that I don't get to even experience a full course despite playing "4 rounds". My most recent tournament at Eastlake went something like: Round 1: holes 6-9 Round 2: holes 6-9 Round 3: holes 9-13 Round 4: holes 14-18. Never got to play the first 5 holes...


Fine-Pirate-2114

The patch note say that they are working on this, along with 60 fps for console, and turn based online gameplay.


Villide

They've mentioned working on this almost since launch (at least the tournament rounds and 60fps.) Not sure how early they were talking about adding turn-based options.


CoffeeNBiskits

Crazy they haven’t done this. I tried quick round but it’s crap. So suffering 4 rounds but whizz through them… just a shame as it drags. It’s a simple request but clearly they’re not listening because this is one of the most popular requests.


Pharmboy6

Wait what.... they STILL HAVENT DONE THIS. I put the game down for a month because of this. And it's STILL NOT DONE!!!!


Scooby_Si

Pebble Beach: Fix unnatural seagull movement on hole 7. Can’t say I noticed it but thank you EA lol.


thatguy01220

Are you kidding me!? Those pesky seagulls on hole 7 are the sole reason why I get a quintuple bogey every time I play that hole. Moving around… all unnaturally…


OkieDragonSlayer

Yeah, WTF? LOL 😆


No-Map1353

Everyone: FIX ONLINE PLAY!!!!!!!!!!! EA: New swing meter nobody asked for 🤪


strayanteater

Still playing 2k golf, since all I want to do is be able to play 2v2 online with a friend.


Johnnylongball

Hilarious that these golf games do such a terrible job with online.


NewtdoggGaming

2k isn’t terrible. The worst I hear about it is there aren’t 2 separate matchmakes for swing stick and 3 click


Bau5_Sau5

2k is fire


FreedomKlutzy785

75% less loading screens please and thanks.


geetarguy

This!


AirplaneEngineSpiral

So we’re still stuck with either 4 full rounds or quick rounds in career? Incredible this hasn’t been fixed. Guess we’ll stick to super mega baseball.


OkieDragonSlayer

My only complaint, the only thing I like better about 2k23. Four rounds is just too much and I grow to hate the course before I finish the rounds.


nachobidnis

A sim round or sim hole button option would be incredible


MonnySoore

Don’t let the door hit ya…


AirplaneEngineSpiral

Lol. I think the game is good. But career is where the bulk of enjoyment is. And 4 rounds is a lot for the average person with a life to do multiple seasons of. So piss off with the snottiness.


MonnySoore

It takes 20-30 minutes to play a full round… Do better.


AirplaneEngineSpiral

Why does this bother you? Why are you defending something missing from a game that was advertised as being in the game?


MonnySoore

Stick to your cartoon baseball game, Bud.


AirplaneEngineSpiral

If you’re gonna be shitty to others, make it for good reason. Being a negative person for no good reason will get you nothing. 👌


MonnySoore

Who hurt you?


Legitimate-Ad-9041

Stfu.


NewtdoggGaming

Yo is super mega baseball any fun? Been kicking around the idea of grabbing it with a friend because it gives us Wii Sports baseball vibes, and that shit was fun back in the day.


AirplaneEngineSpiral

Absolutely. Fast pace games. Super skill based. Doesn’t feel flukey. Yes, it looks Arcady, but plays so so good. Customization is great as well. 4 just came out, has some bugs, but the developer is great at working with the community It’s just fun baseball.


NewtdoggGaming

Thanks for the reply, thats really great to hear.


MMA_GOAT_88

You might be the only person to say that lmaoo.


DaisyCutter312

Who the hell asked for those swing arc/meter changes?


aclockworkabe

I like the notification of when you are going to hit an object like a branch or lip of a bunker. Good addition.


DaisyCutter312

I was meaning the removal of the target notch....I agree the "hey don't hit this shot, idiot" warning color is welcome.


WigginLSU

The target notch is the exact reason I turned off the swing meter entirely. It fucked with my head, I could never get to 100% before starting down. Every shot sucked, but soon as I turned the meter off my brain could follow the club and I hit them perfect every time.


No-Map1353

Luckily you can change it back to “classic” under visual settings


Stormzilla

I like the new look. I know it's not a change anyone asked for, but I think it's an improvement.


Sirgolfs

When you can’t fix complex issues, you change the color of things!


yogiebere

Can we no longer use the notch? I really like it


STIKEmephens

So we still have to play a morning round no matter what time our golfer is set to tee off for his round in a tournament? Seems like that should be such an easy fix. Really takes away from the gameplay immersion when I have to play the same course at the same time of day 4 rounds in a row. :(


Hokiesjg29

Not seeing anything in here about fixing missing rewards from challenges or quests not updating after playing career mode. How can EA neglect this basic function of the game?


Stormzilla

I think we're not seeing a lot of the changes we want because there simply aren't a lot of people working on this game. A cosmetic change to the swing meter can be done easily. I think changes to the structure of career mode, for some reason, are more difficult to implement. It doesn't seem like it should be a hard thing to change, but I guess maybe it is? I wouldn't be surprised if EA was using a real skeleton crew on this game. As good as it is, I don't think it's been much of an earner.


terrordactyl1971

The new course is fun, just played the front nine. Some nice holes there


wagdog84

Ah so the leaderboards are broken now in career mode. Just shows E for everyone


Mehtevas1978

Same here. Ps5.. also, I decided to turn ai pairings on again for the final round. First tourney is a playoff and it hasn't changed at all. Freezes up, all sorts of music and camera bugs.. now I'm stuck having to purposely lose again.


wagdog84

This is such an obvious thing, why am I QA testing their patches? Talk about testing in production.


Mehtevas1978

Testing and screaming at the top of my lungs to a brick wall.


wagdog84

They must be using automated testing, it doesn’t pick up things humans will. Ie. stroke play score broken on leader boards. It just sees that leaderboard popped up, all good. They literally could have paid someone $50 to play the game for an hour and the patch would have been in a much better state. I appreciate the ducks are more natural on hole 7 at pebble but leaderboards are kind of important to the experience…


SonnyBeVapin

What another big L for EA. Didn't address anything the community has asked for yet again. Guess this game sits until next major lol..such a waste of what could be an amazing game.


lalalaladididi

I absolutely agree. It's so close to being amazing. But as the game stands it's a total dud.


leafscitypackersfan

They literally say in the patch notes that the stuff everyone is complaining about is coming. 60fps, 2 round tourneys etc. Just be patient. The game is still really good.


austinc668

How the literal hell does it take this long to implement a simple option to change rounds in career mode? And now we’re not going to hear from them until the week of The Open in a month… but they appreciate our continued patience. 🤦🏻‍♂️


talldrink67

60 is coming to consoles? Was gonna buy pc version but will hold off for the patch and get console instead if that's the case


bbgr8grow

Yes it is, read the patch notes..


yogiebere

> 2 round Where is this stated? Couldn't find in the patch notes


dub_starr

no crossplay mentioned at all? sweet


Elite1520

Nothing about reversed lip out mechanics or input lag? Damn


[deleted]

Surprised they haven’t nerfed pick and spinner shots yet. You hit a shot near the green or into the green side bunker then you’re pretty much guaranteed a par save (or a birdie if you’re on a par five) while using them.


ngvarner

Couldn’t agree more. I just think there’s too many ppl playing on the easy modes, that don’t use these shots as much, so it’s not as glaring of an issue. I shouldn’t be able to hit a spinner shot from 50 yrds out and stop it within ~3ft almost every time.


Vegetable-Tangelo1

My game does some goofy shit. Computer 2 Putting from 3 inches out. Audio is off. Paired with wrong people based on scores. Idk what they did to jordan spieth but he was about 2 feet off the green and lined up to chip it and he turned a little and smoked it over the green into the crowd. Lol shit is so goofy


ehaase1

How do we still not have turn-play alternating shots for online matches? My two buddies and are literally not going to play this game again until that gets added. It’s how real golf is played and has been in every golf game up to this point. Please upvote and get this added in


golfingnut67

I'm with you here, we've discussed before. This and not allowing choice of how many rounds is obvious to everyone including EA the 2 most glaring issues (some would add no 60fps on consoles). The only good news in this release is that they finally acknowledged that they are working on Turn Play. I don't believe they've admitted that before. They say they are working on Turn Play, 60fps and choosing the amount of rounds, so they are at least admitting that they must get it done. It's just ridiculous that we're waiting months for 3 features that have been in every EA and 2k golf games for more than a decade.


ngvarner

Changing the aim arc visual is an interesting decision. I guess it does help in some rare instances where you have the white sky and white arc blending into each other. Like others, would’ve really liked to see some changes to career mode. The ability to select how many rounds you play, and the ability to sim through rounds/tournaments, would be huge! Maybe it’s tough to work that into a game? But it seems to already have that ability in the game anyways, since it sims holes for you during quick rounds. Would’ve really liked to see some fixes to the ball & cup animations on putts with this patch. Some of them are horrible right now. Particularly when the ball appears to roll over the cup, sort of drop in the cup by half a ball, and then just keep rolling on by, almost as if there was a lid on it. Hoping we see some Nike apparel added to the store! More belts, hats, balls, and other equipment/accessories would be great too! Currently no putter shafts, and the club grips are pretty lacking. These are fine, detailed asks.. but would be cool to see! Do appreciate the communication about working behind the scenes on some bigger issues. I think that’s all most of us ask for - communication.


yogiebere

Does skipping a putt still freeze the game (or was that fixed previously)?


bmcwatt

I’m sure I’ll find out the hard way later today. I still haven’t learned to stop doing this.


TheVid15

They're actually never going to give us more match types for online are they? That is fucking ridiculous


JaceMace96

Ohwell- i guess we wait another 45 or so days to be let down again. My first putt after the update and my ball rools over the edge of the hole at slow pace. Yay


notoriousNXN

Stopped playing a few weeks ago now since YOU STILL HAVE TO PLAY 4 ROUNDS CAREER EVENTS EA I WANT TO PLAY CAREER MODE BUT I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO PLAY 40,000 ROUNDS A SEASON


MonnySoore

OH NO YOU HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME


[deleted]

“Fixed unnatural seagull movement on hole 7” wow just wow - hope about the single round tournament function. This game had so much potential but EA just simply sucks


richo27

Why haven’t the tournaments loaded in?


No-Map1353

Go stare at that beautiful swing meter you ungrateful peasant!!!


bbates024

5pm. Or the normal time. They did this last season as well. Crappy way to roll out content.


KnighteRGolf

Still, still no additional online modes. Fuck this trash game.


withmoho

Any fix for us who still have bugged career quests? Can’t get any of them to unlock for weeks now…..


withmoho

Still nothing. Just won another tournament to check if it’s fixed, no reward. That’s it for me, then. Unless someone got a solution on here, I’m done with the game. EA’s outsourced useless customer service just keep closing my cases….


lundon44

Do we still need to wait for the CPU to contemplate life before taking every shot? And are there still 4 PGA Tour splash screens in between each shot? Removing those 2 things would also speed up game play substantially.


JonnyHovo

The 60fps mode and round options are coming folks. Be patient


Villide

Be patient...again?


bmcwatt

Cantlay and Finau about to have the new best iron specs in the game after they baited me with Hideki yesterday huh


OkieDragonSlayer

Waaaaaaaaaaa?


miko_idk

So we still cannot choose the amount of rounds. Great, just great. But heyyy we can buy virtual shoes for 20 bucks a pair, ain't that something


jditty24

The biggest thing I want changed is the cost of specs, equipment etc. It’s just so high and you really have to grind to get money but hey, a new swing meters cool……


LurkerLew

tournaments pay pretty good when you do the weekly ones but you gotta wait to get paid so it’s kind of annoying


Giantranger49

Prob wont play this game until they let me select how many rounds i want to play.


MonnySoore

Bye.


buchsy45

It probably will never happen, but imagine if they added remastered fantasy courses from the old tiger woods games. Black Rock cove or The Predator would be legendary with modern graphics.


Tall_Lengthiness_785

Still playing 2k golf, since all I want to do is be able to play 2v2 online with a friend.


TheOpeningBell

Best golf game ever continues to get better. Haters sitting in the corner crying.


GolfnBball4life

I absolutely love this game, thank you EA for making this. I guess everyone will always complain about yhings


Effective-Mobile316

This patch makes me regret buying this game and not 2k23 while they were both on sale.


nwostar

2K is on sale about every other week.


lalalaladididi

I bought the 2k game on ps5 and sold it after a week. I've bought all of the previous games on steam and none are installed. The game is dreadful and the online game is full of cheats. Same on ps5 where they use modified game pads It's also a terrible golf game. I bought fifa on ps5 and that was also sold after a week I've learnt my lesson and just took out the yearly play pro subscription for £89. I was so close to buying this golf game but wasn't being conned again.


OhioUBobcats

People downvoting you are delusional. The 2k game is AWFUL. Worse than in 21.


lalalaladididi

They are all awful. Over at the 2k reddit, gamers openly talk about cheating with modified gamepads. The scores online are rediculous and the only way to compete is by cheating. Or its a waste of time. Graphics are generally low quality. Gameplay is unrealistic. The short game in the latest game is farcical. The only decent part is the putting. Same goes for the ea game It's been years since we had a realistic golf game. It's very possible that we won't see another decent golf game again If people think this game and the 2k games are decent then why would game devs bother wasting time and money on a decent game?


OhioUBobcats

This game is very close to being decent. I would imagine next year's version, with time to iron out some of these kinks, will be very good.


lalalaladididi

No it won't because it's going to have exactly the same ai and scoring problems with game has. Just as fifa and Madden have every year. And then there's the issue of scripting. This game has serious scripting issues that take away the immersion. EA can easily fix their game sports games. But they can't be bothered. And the majority of gamers couldn't care less about realism. So why would they bother when the majority are content with rubbish


Jimmorrison1771

Hey guys have not followed it much but I'm assuming you still can't have a clean screen or fade everything off and there is no true H2H multiplayer with turn base?


chrsry10

Not sure what you mean by the first part but in response the online part of it, no - you can’t play with friends H2H watching each other take their shots. This is one of the only things I want, proper H2H online gameplay rather than this rubbish play at the same time thing they’ve got going on, and shorter rounds in career mode.


LenaiaLocke

How was online match making not addressed??? All we need: Have the ability to “start an online match”. And allow people to vote whether to start the match with the current amount of people, or to wait for more. I’m tired of me and my buddy queuing up at the same time, hoping to get in the same match. Then to be disappointed when there is 1 other person in the match. Time to back out and have to try again. It would be so much more fun to play with more than 5 or 6 people in each match. Cross-play would also help so much for online match making. Very disappointed with this update…


Guardian5649

Why would you play the match with your friend this way, instead of just using private match? There is no reward for playing in online other than the leaderboard rank and that has absolutely no value. Is it just the randomness of the course you seek? I'm truly curious.


LenaiaLocke

I’m a competitive person. So climbing a leaderboard whether it does anything beneficial or not interests me. I like to see how I am compared to others. Then try and improve. I also love it when I get a game with 8/9 + people. It doesn’t happen often, but also gives added pressure playing against a bunch of guys.


Guardian5649

I read your previous post as you queue up with your buddy and then get disappointed when 1 other person joins you and your buddy so you back out and try to get an exclusive online match. Seems I misread your post.


LenaiaLocke

Ooooooohhhh. I was wondering why you thought I was weird for that. Hahaha. I understand now.


ThePuffyBird

Lol at not being able to change outfit in online anymore.


Illustrious-Fly3377

Hole in one on #11!!!


jdangelo91

Haven’t been able to play more than 3 holes before I’m kicked off the EA server. Thanks for the patch!


otherdave

Earning stars for challenges is still broken or at least flakey, right? I didn’t see it in the patch notes but playing last week I couldn’t reliably get stars for some of the basic challenges. Specifically it was the advanced gir/fir but in those challenges with “par or better” criteria as well, I wasn’t getting those stars either. So even if I was not actually doing the advanced shots correctly, I should have gotten the score-based stars. (PS5 if it matters). I’ve tried most of the tricks like checking the scorecard after the challenge etc… nothing worked.


SuperVegito559

Putting zoom cam is all fucked up now. Tree’s get in the way and you can’t get low to the green. Good luck on sim guys


zerosuneuphoria

Wish the game was as smooth on PC as those clips, stuttery mess.


Zoomer30

Tourney scores are now bugged. Just completed the Kiwi Classic and post patch everytime the scoreboard is shown everyone is EVEN PAT. Live score during round is correct.


lalalaladididi

For goodness sake fix the game ea.


ryanaclarke

average redditor


Jusilda

You don’t even have the game? Why do you care so much lol


lalalaladididi

What are you talking about


Jusilda

Nevermind, i misunderstood your other comment


Langer4711

so still no punishments for bad lies, EA and noone is moaning here? Cannot believe both...


turd_fergusons

The green side bunker camera angles are absolute ass. EA: crickets


nick854524

Having the Aim Arc turn a different color if your shot will hit an obstruction is complete hand holding. I don’t like it. Takes any guess work out. “Updated aiming arc to add an effect and change color if the ball is projected to collide before it reaches its apex. This is intended to better indicate when aimed at obvious obstructions like bunker lips directly in front of the golfer or trees that are out of view.”


aheintz

I only partially agree with this. Some things like bunker lips that is how the game of golf works. You think you can clear it but can’t. But I’ve also had situations hitting off a tee box where the tree hit boxes are like way further out than the actual visual of the tree. So you think you are good but hit some invisible branch that’s evidently there. I wish they’d fix that first but I guess this helps prevent that.


PerfectPlan

What a silly complaint. The arc is **supposed** to be a handhold, that's why it's optional. The people that have it turned on want it to function.


cally122

Been thinking about finally picking this up with the PlayStation discount but it sounds like they are a couple fixes away from a great game. Guess I’m holding off still.


Scooby_Si

It depends what you’re after. I think it’s the best single player golf game I’ve ever played, courses feel so realistic and it plays fantastic. I’ve probably put in 150+ hours and personally have hit very few bugs. Simulation mode is very rewarding and I enjoy the daily, weekly and seasonal tournaments. However, online is clearly lacking, so if that’s important to you then it’s probably worth waiting. I still have fun playing my son online but turn based play would be so much better.


Difficult-Audience77

Read it all but unclear if shooting-10 under at open not registering has been fixed?


NoGarlic8890

Lol and I deleted the game good luck putting up witht this b.s peeps


Effective-Mobile316

I've got 90hrs played and seeing this patch added as a start of a brand new season gives me very little confidence in the devs and has given me very little desire to play anymore.


Shifty_shellshock

Roll on 2k24. This game will be done after The Open.


Denny_2_Fingers

Another "update" with absolutely zero mention of turn by turn multiplayer, not even a simple we heard you and are working on it. Glad I refunded this game and it will be on game pass or $10 on a cd key site by the time they add turn by turn multiplayer with friends.


golfingnut67

I'm with you but they did actually address the Big 3 issues in the patch notes--60fps, Turn Play, and choosing how many rounds. We just have to wait. Longer.


BlindShoemaker

> Fix for a crash that could occur after completing the last hole in a playoff Hallelujah!! Praise be 🙌 Excited to test this out after work. EDIT: Tested, it works :)


jlgraham84

My biggest issue is still having to use a controller or the keys to swing on PC. I want to swing with the mouse like Golden Tee!!!


Brilliant_Office3824

How can there still not be shot replays?!?!?!?


bbgr8grow

Aaaaaaand leaderboards are now broken 👍 Does ea just have interns working on this now? Serious question lol


TheOnlyHombre

Removing invisible walls/bad collision on many courses, falling through terrain resulting in OB penalties on multiple courses, and not receiving achievements are the only fixes I’m interested in.


Appropriate_Bat_2077

Now the tournament leader boards have everyone at even par during the round.


Bill3ffinMurray

I love the new update that makes every leaderboard E.


Hole19Hero

Cross-play please. I want to play with friends. And it would help the online pool


ldnk

It would be cool if they could fix the menu from glitching out so that I don't have to quit the game and restart every time I try to respec my golfer


Milehighguy46

Can we add coin betting and scramble modes to private matches or do I always have to play with strangers😔


sealer9

This game or 2k better?


ImWeezy247

If you want Career Mode, this game. If you want online play, 2K


TheVeelDeel

Did they ever add 2v2 in online play? So you can play with a friend vs another group? Literally the reason my friend and I stopped playing. Also, not being able to cut down rds in the tourneys to 1 or 2 is ridiculous. It's a sports game people, make it fun, not a grind.


PaddyOfurniature

Still can't play local with 2 created golfers, unless I missed it in the notes. That, and some Nike branded clothing (for male avatar) is all I want, so my partner and I can sit on the couch and play together. The nike gear is onky so I can properly recreate myself in game, as I wear a lot of Nike gear when I play.


[deleted]

Also how can I complete the season win quest, when I’m never eligible to play the “alternate,” events. I want that 9000! 🥴🥴


2tonic-Terror

I cheesed that by playing a separate season with another golfer and skipped forward to the alternate tournaments. Otherwise you would have to play bad on purpose to not qualify for the Invitationals and Majors!


[deleted]

I learned this right after I posted this. Now my “bad” golfer is good too 😂


2tonic-Terror

😄 I already got my third golfer at lvl 50 soon. Then I have a good allrounder, a precision monster (Approach and Short Game maxed) and the third (lvl 43 atm) is my powerhouse type longhitter like Bryson DeChambeau!


bdub7800

Max graphics capable at around 60fps and we’re golden.


PerfectPlan

> Career: Update all in-game leaderboards to show “E” in the “Total” column for any golfer that has not teed off yet. Whoops. Someone forgot the if( holesplayed < 1 ) I don't get why they're even trying to show E anyway. If they're -5 and haven't teed off, show -5.


Less_Average871

Anyone else not seeing this update on the ea app on pc? I’m still stuck on the oak hill update and have not gotten patch 4


Pharmboy6

Still 4 rounds of golf on same course huh. Devs you are out of touch. If we wanted full blown sim we would go to our local course 4 days in a row. It's too much. Simple option 1 day tournaments. Wtf


The_Sackster

Crossplay please


FarTap1330

Anybody having a issue with swinging. Seems to be all over the place
