I know this is a wish list, but I've learned over my many decades of gaming to ALWAYS keep your expectations in check. I really think it's fun to "dream" about what the new game will have, but I think there will only be some small graphical and texture changes. Hopefully they'll fix the look of the waterfalls...LOL...Let's hope for more designing goodies for our designers, let's make the career better and FUN. I think that will be about it. I know we have some guys on here that are in the know with game and have some inside knowledge, albeit very little, but I'll keep my expectations low and hope for the best  Agree with this 100%. Tempered expectation is always best !! I'm hoping the bugs that our gun designers have been afflicted with disappear so that some who have notably gone missing can start to design again. Without them the game would be nowhere near as enjoyable. I hear you about some designers leaving but it seems like it hasn't stopped the ones who have stayed on and creating courses from doing some really outstanding work. If all we had to play was HB/2k courses and no course creator I would have to be satisfied with just playing 23 until they shut down the servers because I would not buy the game. |

I truly believe that the course designer is what keeps this game going. What I don't get is how fast PG (the end all golf game to kill HB) died and they had a designer. |

I'd love to be able to play society rounds with friends and it not take 2 hours+ a round because of waiting times (not loading times). You're waiting a whole minute after the ball comes to rest staring at the ball or player before it goes to the next player to hit. With 2 players it takes just over an hour to play a round, with 3 players it takes 2 hours+ and 4 is like 2-1/2 - 3 hours. It ridiculous.

Realistic drop rules and drop zones. 18th hole yesterday at the Riviera and my 3rd shot is in the crowd seating with my ball behind the railing?

While I've come to appreciate the game more now that I have been playing it again, the spin on the ball is huge for me. I feel like the spin is very minimal when landing on the greens. The two big things I want to see is better spin and getting out of the rough more doable. Not thick rough, I'm talking about just off the fairway. Also, get rid of the stupid automatic distance penalty from fairway bunkers. Actually there shouldn't even be an automatic distance penalty from rough either, have they not heard of flyers? And yeah, fix the idiotic drop rules too. |

I think there are times the ball doesn't run enough on the green when hitting into the wind. |

I think there are times the ball doesn't run enough on the green when hitting into the wind. Yes I'm not against a distance penalty at all, just not every time. You can pick the ball clean off the sand in a fairway bunker and hit it more or less the same distance you would off the fairway. I think the thing should range from 100% down to whatever figure to account for an off swing that might thin or fat it and lose distance. Same with the rough, how many times do you see pros flying over the green out of rough? They never come up short 100% of the time. |

Tough to put that in the game. While they're at it they need to nerf the effectiveness of the 3 iron.

Allowing for up to 100% on fairway bunker shots while having a distance/directional
penalty for bad swings shouldn't be that hard. They already do the latter with every shot type. All they'd have to do is move the high end of the range up to 100% from fairway bunkers and leave everything else the same.
It would be more difficult to account for flyers in the rough though.

A perfectly hit fairway bunker shot will go 100% of the same distance.
Sure if you hit it fat or thin then there is a massive disparity between distances.
Id like to see a super slow shot actually be a knife shot and it travels at 5 inches off the ground (and into the bunker face, depending on the bunker lip).
As well as a super fast being more like a chunk and going 20 yards.

Not in this game it won't. If I'm in a fairway bunker and my 7 iron carries 160 metres or whatever it is, the most I usually get is 140 (assuming no wind/elevation etc.)
In real golf when I'm in fairway bunkers and I hit it properly, it goes pretty much the same distance as a fairway shot.

Of course I meant flyers. People complain about the excess rollout on the default balls now. They would be screaming for their mothers with totally unpredictable flyers. |

Those guys they brought over from EA? Please don't make this game like the one you just worked on for EA. TIA.

Would love to be able to crank Fairway/Green firmness even more. Make max firmness the same as cart path and let me adjust it down from there. Would allow for designs with links golf and ground game to be remarkably better and really open up the game for the design community.
