    2 for me. On the 360 it impossible to see breaks on the green, resolution doesn't allow for it Imo.

    Alot of people don't have the game yet so we should probably wait until they get a chance to play the game before making the final decision here.

    I agree Bulldog, but after playing the early access and seeing some of the others wants/preferences, as well as my own wants/preferences....we could all put forth very poignant and valid arguments for this or against that until we're all blue in the face -- to me the best thing to do since the overwhelming majority are in favor of more "realism" is to just play the simulation difficulty as is - straight out of the box. Just my opinion......this way we all have something to complain about ;)

    Full Simulation is my vote, even then it won't be long before the good players are under par every round. I think most of us can live with + rounds for our scores, but can't really live with -40 or lower rounds by others.

    I am good with no green grid.. Just have to take a little extra time scanning the green.. Played the daily tournament with no green grids and got it to -5 before a double. But made some nice ten+ footers without the grids..

    Xbox.. Not sure my level... in the 50s probably.. IT was on normal swing not advanced so thats why it went pretty good.

    My guys up to 93 already, you level up very quickly with the simulation settings in career mode.

    Here, here.

    As someone quite rightly pointed out, we all have opinions of various elements and we could be here all week debating which one should be changed or turned on etc.

    As Dub-ya said - Straight out the box simulation mode seems the fairest bet.

    Otherwise we will inevitably be giving into someones wishes and shunning others.

    Not sure if I am even invited back, haha...

    I voted anyways... For Full Simulation. I don't plan on playing this year, because I still feel bad for killin' the fun last time around :oops:

    But I think the high scores, plus the fact that they were unrealistic even for a actual Professional golfer didn't help matters much. Also, I think the margins of victory were another huge breaking point in the scope of things? I would suggest that you guys consider what I brought up last time, which is dividing people up by ability? Having it work like an English soccer league, where there is promotion and relegation... Just a random thought, even though it is probably too late to consider...

    I will keep in touch, and I am up for games and/or practice round help on the Xbox for anyone interested...

    It would be a great idea only if we had enough interest.. Think it would be a great idea but I just think the interest is not there..

    Anybody is welcome!

    Question: this will be my first tiger game in a long long time. I'm assuming my created pro will suck something awful at first. This will surely put me at a huge disadvantage then??

    I've never played on sim settings on tiger. I'm so screwed.

    Just level up your golfer and a little bit easier settings so you can level up a good bit and then switch over to the simulation settings..That is what I did and it seems to be a better idea than going to straight sim with a terrible golfer..

    Have not noticed.. I have just been playing practice rounds to get use to the courses and level up my golfer.. I have been using simulation base with everthing the same except the advanced swing.. I changed it to normal.. But will be changing it here shortly once my golfer gets leveled up some more!

    I voted for "Custom settings" - but what I really prefer is "out of the box Tournaments settings".
    I think that "Sim Mode" might be a little bit to tough for the casual players.
    But I wouldn't mind playing "Sim Mode".

    What I don't like about the "Sim Mode" is that we don't get any yardage help for bunkers etc. (like a caddie book or something) , the greens are still a bit to hard to read w/o any help and the strike meter fades far too quickly.

    I hope we use the new shot shaping mode (diagonal swing) - but IMHO it is to brutal if we use EXPERT as Swing Difficulty. VERY HARD should be enough.

    That's why I would prefer "TOURNAMENT MODE".

    But FYI - I only played the Demo so far.
    The game won't come out before Thursday here in Germany.

    That will be nice. Maybe Shaun can tag the whole forum to see if there are others willing to play. Dunno, maybe a recruiting campaign or something :D

    I dunno why you guys wanna make things easier! It will only make the better even better and we will have unrealistic scores. Dont tell me that it wont happen cause right now u r scoring ONLY -5 per round. It might difficult for some us at first, but thats the actual fun of this game!! Getting better after every round. I know I wont have any chances to win a tournament in the first few weeks, but I dont really care as long as I have a fair to get better with time and having people scoring real life scores and not cheesy -16 per round.

    I know, theres a guy already in the club who has like 17+ under GIRs! 200+ birdies, 12 Eagles. So, yeah. Lets make things easier :)

    I think that's me(xDAMM1T B0BBYx) most of that is from when I first played the game last weekend on tournament difficulty. I agree though full simulation is the way to go.
