When are they going to fix the ghosts? The ghosts are fine on the course. I’m talking about when you select a ghost and you check their golf bag the only bag that pops up is mine. And it is in their ghost bag.

Thought it'd be best to start off with CC, as I was a CC-C player on 2k21. This was actually my first Pro round, as I'd been playing Master in career mode.
R1: -8
R2: -8
R3: -10
R4: -11
...then went onto Elite Tour, to test out Master...
R1: -3
R2: -1
R3: -6
R4: -4
Nice of the commentary to tell me that shot placed me into the top 5 of the leaderboard a hundred times, despite being absolutely nowhere near. I do enjoy some aspects of this game but some are such a notable step back, my word. Didn't use any ball sleeves throughout, and played with the Rhythm archetype.
I don't find Master overwhelmingly more difficult, to echo everybody else. I do definitely struggle with the bunkers in Master however. The main difficulty difference is the lack of lie grids and wind speeds, with the later tours. I'd like to see all modes on Master, as it just makes the game feel a lot more fun. It's annoying when you don't make a birdie on Pro, whereas you can be happy with some pars on this difficulty.
Also, hit my first hole in one of the game on Round 3 in Elite.
Shows off the stupid speed I usually play the game at!

Pretty disappointed that we’re even testing pro difficulty on CC tbh. I won’t play if it’s this easy. I echo this statement. Hopefully CC will be using Master. 😉 Agreed I'll be pretty sad I've been waiting for master to make a return in CC |

It's an exaggeration lol. That said, probably 95% of drives and irons were well inside in the grey. So the only real punishment off the tee was a slight push into the rough. Yeah - makes sense - I'd say I've probably only hit about half a dozen black very fasts in 17 levels of play. I think the master implementation is pretty good. Difficult to pepper the pins with regularity (till someone finds a meta calibration or push / pull fudge). Dispersion isn't massively penal, so should keep people engaged. I do think, however, it's probably too easy for the top end of TGCT. If they do end up going Legend in Pro Tours and Master in CC I hope they extend the Pro Tours to have a few more flights. I think the top ends of the CC are competitive enough that they should also be on legend. But I think ultimatley lower level CCs probably do need to be in Master or risk losing a lot of players. |

I prefer the Pro settings for the Challenge Circuit. That being said I wonder if there is a benefit of having the higher levels within the Challenge Circuit (ie. Leagues A-E for example) being at Master and the lower levels being at Pro? I definitely would not play if Challenge is at Master Lots of exhibition golf to play in PGA TOUR 2K23 in the next few weeks as we get things updated under the hood. Please provide feedback on your rounds - I'd appreciate as much details as possible so will provide a format you can use if you'd like.
Here are our societies in game - search "TGCT" to find them easily
Exhibition Event settings
TGCTours (Platinum Tour) - Legend, open swing type
TGCTours (Elite Tour) - Master, open swing type
TGCTours (Kinetic Tour) - Master, open swing type
TGCTours (Challenge Circuit) - Pro, open swing type
TGCTours (Beer League) - Pro, 3-click
TGCTours (True Sim Tour) - TST settings, analog
TGCTours (Special Events) - no events scheduled
Please provide the following while giving feedback:
Event/Difficulty Swing type (analog/3 click) Thoughts on how it played (frustration/fun factor) Sprinkled a few rain rounds in these events - if you get one and notice frame drops/lag please let me know here as well.
Please note that these are just test events. Upcoming season settings not finalized yet.
Have fun out there!

Did encounter rain in the final round at Naples Grove. The golf course didn't play any differently. So I was happy to see weather, but it was the same gameplay experience.

I echo this statement. Hopefully CC will be using Master. 😉 I ended up dropping out last year after they switched to the pro setting. It wasn't golf any more to me. I played Master and Legend a lot on the new game over the weekend and for me they felt pretty similar in how they punish around the green but the difference was every iron or drive off the tee was perfect every time on Master. Which completely kills the immersion for me Legend is just more fun, even if I'm not competiting at the top of the leaderboard in a tournament, every time you get a birdie or better you get legitimately excited and every round has some excitement to it. Very well said. |

Good, no b%&ing about it being an unfair pin. 
Played the CC rounds on Pro and I agree it's too easy. It doesn't feel rewarding. Played R1 of the Elite event because the course is awesome and the designer a stand up guy, and it did feel a lot closer to the sweetspot we've been looking for. Will come back after R4.

I'm just curious as I'm playing CC why there is no yardage to the pin and also no elevation changes showing? We've always had it in the regular season games when on 2k21. Am I missing something?

See the first page and scroll down: tgctours.com. That doesn't answer my question as to why there's no yardage to the pin or elevation changes. In the Societies In Game the 'Message of the Day' states:
**IMPORTANT** How to see elevation info from your current position to the pin with TGCT settings: Settings > Display & HUD > Distance Info Position > Set to "In HUD". If set to "OFF" or "On Marker" you will not see elevation information.

Platinum event - legend
PS5 - performance graphics - some fittings and skills
Finished on -5 for the event.
Absolutely hated the rain round - very distracting and doesn’t add anything.
Love the game but for this 2k21 struggling Platinum player, if I’m honest, legend is just a little bit too much. I’m basically scrambling all the time. My short game saves a lot of pars but I’m not having fun at all. And yes, I know, I’m probably supposed to say that fighting for par is how it should be and that that is golf/fun. But it just isn’t for me.
So I’d prefer Masters for all flights.
Best wishes
Frans

Thank you as that took care of the problem. |

Doyley wasn't wrong when he said legend mode is quite playable, at first it felt a grind but once you start managing you misses and get the putting stroke ironed out, it's a really fun level of play. Despite only shooting a -4 it felt like I was completely over the moon to shoot that score. I can definitely see Legend being suitable for all 3 pro tours potentially, particularly if you can't lock out balls. It's so much easier to score on this level with a low roll + low bounce combo ball, I'm about 3-4 shots better using one of the purple upgrade balls
