Fast Track Demotions - All Tours

[kurt06518]

I think this new fast demotion is ridiculous. For example I had 3 strong weeks in a row with 2 top 40 finishes and 1 top 15 finish averaging around -25 and then I had 1 bad week and got demoted. I think this rule needs to change. Everyone is capable of an off week and should not get punished if they are consistently putting up top scores

Just to puntualize a fact about the Pro/Master club difference, i played a lot with Pro Clubs and switched recently to Masters Clubs.
I absolutely agree that, by default, Pro Clubs are not at all easier than Master Clubs, cause is definitely true that the increased spin&distance offered by Master Clubs, in the end equalizes every difficulty you can encounter to obtain a straight swing.

But..and this is an enormous but in my opinion, what makes this game played with Pro Clubs an actually easier, almost different game, is ONLY the fact that Master Clubs players suffers a certain number of totally random superfast/slow swing per round. And, to be clear, i'm not talking about controllers too sensitive (as for XBox players) that causes easier slight fast/ slow downswings, i'm talking about those more or less "normal" (if not actually perfect) downswings that results with the line at the end of the "fast" column or at the start of the "slow" column..as if the signal don't reach the game at all.
I mean..is clearly something absolutely not depending by the player's swing.
Is something that the huge majority of Master Clubs players experience every day.
(about this, after some week spent looking for a solution, i found some little advice to reduce these messed up dowsnings..slowing a bit my graphic setting and simulating always a pair of backswings before to shoot..but, to explain how much this affects my game, when i played with Pro Clubs i suffered this issue maybe 4 times in 100 rounds. Using Master Clubs (PC player), is just a miracle if it happens only one time per round).

Is mainly (if not only) this that creates such a gap in results to force admins (for example) to use the actual formula for promo marks in cc-a. Looking the standings, even taking in count that cc-a is full of very strong Pro Clubs players, is quite clear that there is a not "natural" gap. And is created mainly by this thing :
A Master Club player (especially if he is not a PS4 player), loses something between 4/16 strokes per tournament, depending his connection and how much lucky he can be.

Of course, this is a flaw of the game and there is nothing to do about it, but is an actual issue, is not a fantasy, or an excuse, or paranoia.

But i also totally agree about the fact that, in CC, no one is forced to use Master Clubs to play, so is just silly to complain about this thing too much.

Personally, i like in every case to use Master Clubs. Sometimes i hate the game, myself and gods, but who cares
