It is multiplatform for PC, PS4 and XBox. 1) No non turn based ghost and ball labels 2) Follow cam must be turned off manually by the member 3) Swing vibration must be turned off. 4) Only default golf balls allowed. Pins and green speeds will be fully tested for realism. Shot feedback and pin marker turned off is highly recommended for the full sim experience but not mandatory. Everyone welcome and will be going for the full society community vibe again, Scratch and handicapped leaderboards and matchplay competitions for season 6. ultra-sim-experience.proboards.com/board/15/season-6-pga-tour-2k23

I've managed to jump in hammers, logged in to the forum , I've set up a xbox society called TRUE SIM : USE Master Tour so hopefully we're have a few hard-core true simmers come in and give it a try . Only had a few days on the game it's a big learning curve for sure especially short game lots to learn for me . If you give us a shout on course info , conditions etc I'll shove it up this morning to start tomorrow . Might struggle later as out watching tribute bands . Cheers

New game new season and what a wonderful place to tee off our Ultra Sim season 6 and what an exciting tournament to kick off the season. The beautiful Mauna Kea has some of the most challenging long par 3's in golf but it didn't stop the Hawaiian Open champion hitting the first USE season 6 ace in round 1. A very close tournament with this week's champion Smitji edging out horusphoenix by a single stroke to take the trophy in Hawaii. Some great golf played this week on a challenging course. Low rounds this week are 65's, Wade in round 1 and Smijti in round 3.

Just joined, looking forward to this π Cypress Point starts tomorrow as we are staying in California, good to have you on board meyo. Ultra Sim is great fun and pretty competitive through the 3 platforms. I will be setting up an additional handicap leaderboard next week based on society average scores to have a real life society vibe also. Feel free to sign up in the USE forum and post round feedback .

Just found this today. I'm putting in my request to join your Ultra Sim Experience on PC now. No vibration and no follow cam should be interesting. Fingers Crossed!

Your request has been accepted, welcome to USE. Always great to have another PC member Thanks! I'm practicing the first-round conditions and find it very interesting. No Marker, Vibration, Shot Feedback and Pin Marker is tough to get used to. The game seems very quiet, and I find it easy to hit the ball over the green. I wouldn't say that I prefer these settings, but I do like the challenge of it. EDIT: Are the approach and putting cameras allowed to be turned on? I didn't see anything listed about it in the rules and I can see a case for either on or off.

I didn't see anything listed about it in the rules and I can see a case for either on or off. Yes approach and putting camera is allowed and vital to read putts and check around greens for slopes for chip shots etc. Pin marker is allowed, same as shot feedback is also allowed. It is suggested to turn them off but not mandatory to do so, I suggest keeping them on if you are new to Ultra Sim.

Week 2 of Season 6 Series 1 and we found ourselves in beautiful California and the sun was scorching. Rounds 1 and 3 the greens dried and firmed up and were lightning quick but were heavily watered in rounds 2 and 4. A real grind this week for everyone but another great finish in Series 1 with PaKaLoLo77's +3 total finishing the tournament 1 stroke ahead of MR LONGPOLEx, infamousEddieC and coll45 all on +4. Not many rounds under par this week but a superb 4 under 67 from Paddyjk19 in round 4.

We carried on the Series 1 Tour in California with the fantastic Cypress Creek with some great golf and low scores. SimChars brought his A game and 2 wonderful 61's in rounds 3 and 4 to take the win by 5 strokes from Eddie, Paddy a further stroke back in 3rd. Low rounds by the champion, fantastic 61's in rounds 3 and 4.

So I have a question. I disabled the follow cam in my camera settings, but it still uses the follow cam if I hit up on my controller after hitting the shot. Is there a way to prevent that?
I try to not do it but the two times I tried to play USE, it kind of happened subconsciously or by muscle memory on a few shots, so I just didn't putt out and submit my score at the end of 72 holes. I don't know if anyone else has this issue or if there's a better place to disable it so you can't accidentally use it

USE Season 6 series 2 now has 2 rounds over 4 day tournaments. USE is now a public society with no aid restrictions apart from advising no vibration and ghost balls, simple non sim stuff. We will also be going big time into cross platform sim live cross platform competitions when it goes live. All skill levels welcome.
