Instead of legends or more pros, we get weird soldiers and a metal dude as unlockable characters. I understand this was probably set in stone when EA yanked him off the cover, but it still feels weird to play a golf game without him.

I am not a huge golf fan, but I am pretty sure that a dozen playable characters doesn’t even account for 1 percent of the professional ranks. If you don’t want to carve your own path through the green, you can choose from all of 12 actual golfers and five ridiculous made-up ones. I honestly can’t remember the last time I had to do this in a major sports title. Not only is Game Face missing, but you have to choose between a dozen or so preset appearances for your created player. Somehow, this feature got lost on the way to the links? Electronic Arts has the Game Face feature, which enables you to upload a picture and create your digital self for Madden, FIFA, and UFC games. Maybe I’m a sports-gaming snob, but it is absolutely unacceptable to have to choose from preset faces when creating a digital athlete. It takes about four strokes to get out of this mess, which will almost certainly ruin your round.Ī lack of golfers and created golfer customization So you just keep cranking it off these horribly animated onlookers, causing your ball to completely stop about 20 yards from where you hit it. The game has this crazy glitch where spectators don’t move from in front of your golfer while the golfer is shooting. Oh, and god help you if you shank one into the audience (and you will). You will hit it straight into sandy or wet places, and those are enemies of the digital golfer. I can’t stress this enough: Never do this in Rory McIlroy PGA Tour. Previous PGA Tour games would also aim your golfer in the right direction on each shot, enabling you to make minor adjustments or just pull back and let fly.

It doesn’t seem to take your player’s attributes and clubs or the environmental conditions into effect whatsoever. In Arcade mode, the cursor for guessing where your shot will land is flat-out broken. It is the Dark Souls of sports-gaming modes. And the Tour mode, the actual hard mode, is an unspeakable horror. I spent most of my time playing arcade-style, which is supposed to be “for everyone.” I thought this would be an easy, fun playstyle to smash some balls and sink some putts. You may have a million ways to customize your shot before you take it, but you are totally screwed once you swing that club.

Couple this with the Quick Rounds feature, which mercifully enables you to play four of 18 holes and then simulate the rest, and you can zip through tournaments in an hour. The switch to Battlefield’s Frostbite 3 game engine allows for slashed loading times across the board. These various courses also don’t require loading between holes. You can also choose to play a strange practice course in the Night Club Challenge, PGA’s after-dark take on a typical skills challenge mode. The title even features one course based on Parcel Storm, a Battlefield 4 map. EA’s licensing deal with Augusta and The Masters tournament expired, so it didn’t make the cut.

Three of pro golf’s four most recent major tournament locations are represented. A dozen actual courses and five fictitious ones offer a great variety of settings. It’s clear that EA Tiburon put its focus on course development, and that shines through in the final product. However, some of you may know enough about golf swings and clubs to make excellent use of these options.įor me, every shot that doesn’t hit the audience or land in the water is a perfect shot.Ī good variety of courses with minimal loading times

I am pretty sure subtracting loft from my driver made the ball go faster, but I can’t be certain.

I didn’t grasp most of this customization. I think they are some sort of wood/iron mix, and frankly, it’s just not natural. If you are feeling especially adventurous, you can even try hybrid clubs. Choose from various wedges, irons, woods, putters, and drivers. Players also have a ton of decisions to make about which clubs actually go into their bags.

You can bend shots with the wind to wrap balls around major obstacles, or you can ease up on the shot stick to hit the ball shorter than your club’s maximum distance. You’ve got punch shots to get you under the trees and flop shots to stop your ball from rolling.

One of Rory McIlroy PGA Tour’s few bright spots is its dizzying array of shot types, clubs, and spins.
