I'm happy to do this if my teammates/opponents/the admins agree. I don't want to be unfair here, I just don't know what else to do. mbuenger IGolfBad asyoudo64 sid snott prowse00 inflames47 Loftyando katana22 Thoughts guys? No ideal solution but happy to go with majority verdict. Other alternative is to use one of our subs for just Rounds 3 and 4 (I have already picked out a stealth sub who hasn't played Rounds 3 and 4 yet if we go with my original suggestion - see message in Admin). I’m fine with whatever is decided. Seems like a fair plan to me. Just out of curiosity (if it’s been stated somewhere, I missed it) but can it be declared unplayable without crashing the game and does that give any options not on a cliff?

First, it's not supposed to make the game crash. And I have seen some pictures of other peeps in same situation. I don't think you could declare that ball unplayable. All you can do with that is going backward and I doubt it's better there. Clearly a mistake by the designer to not make it OB

Calling all caddies: Any advice on how to play this lie that defies all the laws of Newtonian and quantum physics? Wrong answers only If you zoom in, you’ll see the ball holding the non-grippable vertical rock face and my club addressing it in the 12-o’clock position. Do hurry before I’m penalized for slow play. Next time your in that situation... I would try a LW regular shot at 100%. 2 things can happen: either you make it, probably not going further than 30y from where you were. Or the ball bouced on cliff and go somewhere in the back and you might get a better angle

Clearly a mistake by the designer to not make it OB If you saw my screen cap of the ball resting on the vertical face, then you know I can attest that “declare unplayable” is the only viable option, with the reset point being the lie of the previous shot (the one that caused the trouble in the first place). A drop option is available but I’ve yet to see one worth taking. I can also say I’ve never experienced a crash when using it.

This is a zoomed in screen cap from my actual 2nd round: Not OB, and really no real escape route (water behind me). Declare unplayable let me replay the shot that landed me here at the expense of a stroke (on the scorecard, not in the brain, which in hindsight may have been a better outcome, not that I’m joking about strokes, nasty things the lot of them). Also ignore the obvious fact that I’m kissing the rock surface. I defy any of you to claim you would be able to resist it’s sweet temptations.

But would it be fair as we know he was down a cliff and likely to suffer the consequences. It’s a tricky one where the round has already been started. There is no ideal solution except for 2K to sort their bloody game out!! Or for Johnny to recognise an unplayable! 🙊 That's the thing, it wouldn't allow me to declare it unplayable. It literally spotted the ball on a sheer vertical face with no option to re-tee, drop, or declare unplayable. All it allows me to do is hit the ball, which would then instantly go backwards into the water. The second it hits the water, the game crashes. I've tried everything I can think of. I'm happy to replay the round in local, accept a sub, whatever is fair, or as close to it as possible. It's a miracle I haven't thrown the frigging console through the window at this point.

This is pretty much the exact same thing I was looking at. Won't allow me to declare unplayable, I've tried hitting it in every direction, it just instantly arcs backwards over my head and falls down into the water and the blue screen pops up. It's infuriating.

This is not the truth, Neo. You have been blinded by the Martix of the game. This world has his own physics and that ball could probably went up. If I have time tomorrow, I'll recreate that in designer mode and will show you. It's tricky cause maybe a LW was good, maybe you needed a 3W. But for sure it's unplayable. It's clearly a mistake by the designer, he forgot to paint that zone OB or make that slopes more human

It's infuriating. Will it stay where it is with a very gentle putter tap into the rock until you hit the stroke limit? I imagine it is crashing because the game can't figure out a drop point once you hit the water from that position.

Second Half Rounds of Ugly Truth Feeling the icy grip of losing Konsta Palo for Season 12, I went full captain on rounds 3 & 4, SkyBlueBenThat’s Rd 3: +4 and Dom Doume6307 overwhelms 8 & 7 I think Johnny is on to something. Calling it now: our Blue Hawaiian Punch ends in a tie and the count back resolves nothing.

I was in the same place and hit a full wedge shot out backwards
