My only question/concern is regarding having the lie grid turned off. I know there are quite a few times I've noticed the lie grid is showing elevation change either at my feet or ball position but just by looking at the screen I couldn't actually tell that it was there. I dont think this will happen a crazy frequent amount but I can see this possibly being an issue on some of the harder platinum courses that have a lot of undulation and it could cause people to miss subtle lie issues that just aren't able to be seen without the grid leading to poor shots. Is this something that was thought of/discussed? Thanks in advanced The idea, I believe, is that there was a desire to have some slight differences between Pro tours and CC tours. The wind indicator and lie grid seem to be the spots that made sense for there to be differentiation. The Pro tours then end up being slightly more challenging than the CC tours. Oh ya I totally understand that aspect. My question was just specifically regarding the fact that with lie grid off people can be forced into mistakes regardless of skill level because the game doesn't project subtle elevation changes well. So that could be an unfair end-result rather than a challenge because you literally just can't see the slope. |

I totally understand and agree with you...just wanted to offer my take on why it was done this way. |

That's how I read it. I've been using Book & Meter only and going to keep at it with it being 'Open.' Also keeping the Distance Controls off. I find it makes a better experience. |

Also kind of curious if other people also find this to be the case or if its just me that cant perceive the subtle elevations without the grid lol I totally understand and accept that they need to find ways to make the top tours a little more challenging. I still would prefer Master swing (but that isn't something I'm arguing about lol) but am still going to happily play on Pro and I do like the other setting changes that have been decided on. I just hope this one doesn't sneak up and bite people too often. |

I just hope this one doesn't sneak up and bite people too often. Two main ways are to watch the end of your ball rolling out and to make use the different camera angles - low/medium/high and scout cam to get as much info as you can gather. |

Fair enough, appreciate the response/thought process. I guess I'll have to stop fast-forwarding at the end of my shots so I can use that info to my benefit...thats going to be hard to train my muscle memory lol |

There are times even on green I swear I'm looking at a downhill putt, yet the grids are showing uphill.. sometimes the game graphic and surrounding features can play tricks on the eyes.. |

All of the new settings for all Tiers look good for our season. Of course not everyone will be happy as you can’t please everyone but let’s try to enjoy our season until the new game arrives, whenever that is…..and then this process starts all over again…lol.

DoyleyScott, as a double check what multiplier should the CC settings come out at? We’ve got it to 1.90.

Liking these settings, not too much difference if you are good enough to move onto the pro tours, but also added difficulty to compensate for the easier swing, just need to concentrate on each shot a bit more to work out elevation etc, good work and bring on the new season !!!
