EA Sports PGA Tour Upcoming Fixes and Improvements Outlined

If you’re playing EA Sports PGA Tour and noticed quite a few bugs and other items that needs fix, the devs are aware of the issues and have acknowledged ’em today. EA has given a list of EA Sports PGA Tour upcoming fixes that are in the works.

EA Sports PGA Tour Upcoming Fixes and Improvements:

  • 3-Click Swing – The game’s initial swing animation was designed to accurately replicate golfer motion and was a design choice to elevate the game’s realism. To enhance the experience further, the team will be adding later this month the 3-click swing, a staple on golf games for decades.

  • Career Mode Options – The team has heard player feedback about wanting more options outside of Quick Play and Full Rounds during Career Mode and are exploring ways to provide you with more choice in this area.

  • Camera Angle and Zoom Issues – The team has been investigating ways to improve the pre-shot zoom camera, focusing on improvements for players who don’t use the putting grid and need lower camera angles to manually read greens.

  • And More including Putting Grid, Cup Physics and Online Matchmaking tweaks, a “Fast Play” presentation option and more Online Game Formats

In a separate blog post, EA also listed the following as being looked into:

Camera Angle and Zoom Issues – We have been investigating the various reports of certain camera angles sometimes obscuring gameplay; we will be implementing improvements to remedy those issues in future updates.

Cup Physics – As a result of feedback received during early access and launch, we fixed an issue where the visual representation of the cup was slightly larger than its actual size in physics. This resulted in instances where it appeared that the ball rolled over the edge of the cup when it should have lipped in. This fix will be implemented in an upcoming update. 

Fast Play – We are aware of a variety of community feedback around the frequency in which golfer reactions are shown following a shot and various other presentation elements

Putt Meter and Button Hints – We recognize players have asked for more options to disable shot aids and visual feedback for a more immersive simulation experience. In response to this feedback we will be adding two additional settings to provide further choice in this area, “Putt Meter” and “Button Hints” settings.

Online Matchmaking – We’re aware of the challenges some players have had finding opponents and getting into fuller sessions when using online matchmaking. We’ve already made multiple updates to our matchmaking algorithms to improve how we’re grouping players together to get fuller matches and made updates to our matchmaking mode offerings to group players together more effectively. 

The listed items above will be released in a future update according to EA, though there’s no firm release date(s) for it just yet.
