I've had 3 days with it now and at least for me, tempo is undoubtedly more consistent on the Series X. I can also feel it when I hit a bad shot, even before the tempo result shows. This was definitely not the case on my XB1. It's so nice to plan your shot and just know if you make a good swing, then a good result will follow. I'm not a great player or anything but I do feel like I make a consistent swing a lot and the results show that since I have switched. Are you experiencing the swing glitch and on putting as well? Yes unfortunately. I did just play 18 and it didn't happen once so that's good. It was on the CC course next week if it matters at all.

Cheers I do hope they can get this right because this game has moments of brilliance IMO.

I think they maybe fixed it on the server side. This is an encouraging report to read. I read a report from another user saying they'd played a round last night with experiencing any glitches. We need more data but it's looking up. Please let us know how future rounds go for you today.

I think they maybe fixed it on the server side. I played another 3 rounds last night and had no glitches until my final splash shot but might have been an anomaly and it wasn't as pronounced as the previous glitches. I was having around 4-5 glitches per round so I agree, they may have fixed it. Wish they would communicate when they do something.

Yeah, I don't understand their unwillingness to communicate information like this. I just noticed today that they finally published the patch notes from the October 2nd patch on October 28th. I stumbled over the official communication by accident looking for something else. Here it is if anyone is interested, it's quite a list and one I'd think they'd have no shame in sharing: October 2nd Patch Notes

I played a round last night and the round felt "smoother". I had only x1 swing glitch. Aside from the glitch it felt as it did when playing on my old Xbox. Hope it stays like this but I'm not convinced the glitch has been fixed completely. There's no stutter anymore post swing and when moving the scout cam.

It seems like it might somehow be server traffic related, but if that's it, why would it affect the Series X version more severely than the XBox One X, XBox One S, and OG? Whatever it is, it now appears to be exclusive to the Series X across next gen platforms. I've now read reports from two PS5 owners who say they've not experienced the animation glitch.

I have an Xbox Series X and I am getting swing glitches occasionally and it's annoying, hopefully HB Studios is aware of it and are working on a solution. Also why won't they give us 60 fps, isn't that up to the publisher? I am not a tech guy but I bought the machine for it's power and it's not being utilized. Any info on this subject?

Also why won't they give us 60 fps, isn't that up to the publisher? I am not a tech guy but I bought the machine for it's power and it's not being utilized. Any info on this subject? I'm sure they're aware of it, but they're not very disposed to speaking to matters like that of late. I'd have to think they're working on it. As for you 60 FPS question, I wish we could get an answer, but HB Studios hasn't bee prone to discussing resolutions and frame rates since July of 2018. The XBox Series X is a high end gaming PC without a keyboard and a mouse. If my slightly better than average gaming PC includes an option to turn vsync off and run the game at whatever frame rate it's capable - and that's usually 50 to 62 FPS in 4K - then why not at lease offer the OPTION to disable vsync on the Series X version? Are they worried that it might cause some kind of timing or sync issue? Are they worried about complaints over screen tearing that are said to be an undesirable effect of disabled vsync (which I don't detect on my PC BTW). If you make it an OPTION, then it's up to the user whether they want to run the risk of screen tearing. I just know this game plays so much better ~60 FPS than it does at 30. It frustrates me to no end to see it shackled to 30 FPS on a machine that could run the game at 60 FPS in its sleep!

I played the game on my PC last night first time for about a fortnight and what a difference game play is at 60 fps. It’s a totally different feeling game on PC than Xbox.

I've got the Series S and I just had a round where I got a few glitches while putting. Sometimes its not letting me pull the head back and others it does the lightspeed back swing - on one occasion making me hit my 14 foot birdie putt just 2 inches (on the 12th in the second round of the Beer League event at Grand Golf and Racquet CC).
Edit: For general gameplay it does seem slightly more consistent to hit Perfect (on Pro) but I am still getting the odd inexplicable Very Fast or Very Slow.

Ok so I received this reply from 2K. Assuming this is their standard response because it makes no sense. I installed the game from disc from scratch (which then subsequently downloaded all data from connected server), I have no connection or network issues (as far as I am aware) and the game played somewhat flawlessly without a swing glitch on the old Xbox One. So this is 2Ks standard 24hr response to placate (or not!) their customer base yes? ********** Surya M., Nov 14, 2020, 21:49 PST: Hey there, Thanks for reaching out to 2K Support. I really apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. I can certainly understand that you're facing some swing glitch in the game which is hampering your game-play and stats, however, I'll do my best to help you out with this issue! Hence, please follow these below-mentioned steps accordingly: Press and hold the Xbox button in the center of your controller to access the "Power Center" Select "Restart Console" option Note: If the console appears to be frozen or the Power Center cannot be accessed, press and hold the Xbox button on the front of the console for 10 seconds until the console turns off. After the console shuts down, press the Xbox button on the console again to restart.as this is an easy fix for a lot of issues. If that doesn't help, go ahead and back up your files and completely re-install your game. This helps to re-sync any files that may have been corrupted. If you've tried all that and are still experiencing issues, it may be related to your network connection. To continue troubleshooting, please check out these guides: Console Network Troubleshooting Once you've completed the steps in the provided guides, give the game another shot and let me know how it goes! Please let me know if you have any questions along the way and I can help you out. Thank you, Surya M. 2K Support

I captured an example of the putting glitch and a couple of examples of the backswing glitch on Series S and compiled them into one video below. As you can imagine, the putting one brought forth some choice words on my part!
