This is coming at a good time for me, shot my first under par round on these settings at the weekend! I've no idea where I might end up but I at least feel I'm going to end up SOMEWHERE now Is there any data regarding platform disparity from the test events? I think us Xboxers are expecting to have the short end of the stick again but wondering if the difference is at least a little bit closer than in the last game? It's not something that will stop me from playing anyway, the way I see it I'll end up in a tour with people shooting similar scores as me regardless of difficulty. It's going to be great not cursing every par, I like pars these days! Looking forward to a couple of weeks of Q-School, that one always gets the juices flowing. Looks like the gap’s stayed the same or widened a little for me.

There are plenty of PS4 players struggling with tempo. A lot of the top players gravitated to PS4 in the last game (if they weren't there already) and it's those same top players who are shooting -30/-40 now. I've seen a few good scores put up in Xbox societies by the likes of Griffin, Beaz, Jules and Benny, our regular big hitters. I'm still hopeful that the data will show the difference is maybe not quite as big as a lot of people seem to think. But like I said, I enjoy the game and will be happy just qualifying for a tour. I am perfectly accepting of the fact that my PGA days are behind me. I'm going to have the Korn Ferry Kinetic Tour as my long term goal but I doubt I'll start off that high. Let the grind commence!

How will the weekly Q School work? Will it be 'x' amount of players move up and 'x' drop out of CC-G or will there be a promotion mark system in Q School? Also will players who shoot well in Q School be able to move straight up to a flight higher than CC-G?

Will we have more test or exhibition events running in parallel to the qualifying events? No as the societies will be used for the real events.

Can't say I'm suprise by that. The Xbox series S is really tempting. Maybe next year. Thank for the answer. Anybody looking to buy an Xbox to play this game needs to sign a disclaimer and certify as insane. Signed 99% of the Xbox TGCT Community Haha, what the problem exactly with Xbox and this game? I'm new here. If I'm to invest in a new console let's try to do it the right way!

Basically hitting perfect/near miss is harder than PS4 which was the case in TGC 2019. No data yet but as a guess 2-3 shots per round gap of players of same ability.

Think there's a lot of people wrongly convinced they're not going to make the grade for a card.
1450 is a lot. There's probably only a few hundred consistently breaking par?
Suppose I should get practicing - not played since Thursday and will probably be a total train wreck when i go back to it

Has there been any discussion on what happens when next gen comes out in a couple of months? Do you think those systems will be incorporated straight off or will there need to be a testing period and bring them in at the start of the year or so? What's "next gen"?

No as the societies will be used for the real events. there are two qualifying events and a lot more than two societies I may be wrong but I'm under the impression that the qualifying events can be played through all the societies, and you just wind up in whichever one your score determines. Either that or it tells you on the site which one to join to play the qualifying event, which was the CC one when I did it in the last game, and obviously placed according to score. It's a little different this time I suppose with all the tours on the same settings. I've joined all the societies in order to play the exhibition events so wherever I end up I'm good to go.

2 week qualifier is being played out of the special events society. I believe they said the weekly qualifier will be out of the challenge society.
