Actually there are 2 or 3 animations that you can select for your player in which they do exactly that. There's also 2 where they rip the head off the putter, one with their teeth and one with their hand.

Really? How do you trigger them?

Stele · « **Reply #101 on:** June 10, 2009, 06:18:25 PM »

Well in the created player, you have 8 custom animations to choose from for good/bad reactions. So 16 total. But you don't have to select all 8. So if you wanted you could just set the 2 club breaking ones or the 2 ripping the head off ones for your only bad reactions. Then pretty much every time you missed a putt or got a bogey or worse, your guy should do that.

Not too shabby

How far have you 2 gotten in Career Mode?

I just finished my 1st tourney and was 7 over par thanks to one really bad course that was triple bogey & 2 that were double bogey.

Stele · « **Reply #104 on:** June 10, 2009, 07:49:27 PM »

I'm still working on challenges. The easy ones are doable with low stats. And some of the medium ones as well. Now I'm at 50-60% on most stats, and have finished all easy and 10/16 medium challenges. After that I might finally start tournament play, or I might do the hard challenges. Probably will try a round and see if I shoot well.

When I tried playing a tournament round right after creation I got really frustrated after the first 2 holes and decided to quit.

So looking forward to trying it with some more skills now.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #105 on:** June 10, 2009, 08:31:24 PM »

You can earn stats ahead of time form the challenges before playing tournaments!?

Now I gotta start over.

D_Average · « **Reply #106 on:** June 10, 2009, 08:44:27 PM »

Not too far yet, still distracted by Infamous and Crash Bandicoot 3, yes, thats right, I said Crash Bandicoot so LAY OFF!

I plan to start my career tonight though.

Can someone check the game's credit, and tell me if there's a fella with the last name of "Ellis" who worked on this game? If memory serves, I believe the first name is "Ellis." If he is there, can you tell me what he's credited with? I've got his business card somewhere. Yeah, I know, it's odd, but still I have it.

All I've been playing is disc golf and the 2nd "Target" game from the arcade menu... and I'M SORE AS HELL! My shoulders feel as though I've been, I don't know, playing actual sports all day!

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #109 on:** June 11, 2009, 12:22:18 PM »

My problem is not only is my arm sore from trying to hit 100% power on my shots, but trying to hit 100% on my shots apparently is making the blood rush down to my hand and it really f'n hurts.

But I was juiced last nite when I made a long ass putt on a sloping green last nite, and then on the challenge right after it I was jumping up and down when an even longer putt (45ft?) landed right on the lip of the hole. I really felt like I am the one golfing, but damn does it make my hand hurt from the rushing blood. Is that normal?

kraken613 · « **Reply #110 on:** June 11, 2009, 12:37:07 PM »

I have the same problem, when ever I hit it hard my left hand gets this pain. My arm and shoulders are sore too.

Be happy knowing Gerstmann doesn't know what you guys are talking about.

Is there a story behind that, or just the simple fact that there is no review for the game on giantbomb.com?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #113 on:** June 11, 2009, 07:11:48 PM »

F that Pebble Beach Challenge final hole on easy.

How hard do I have to swing to get 100% and why is there such a big difference between where it said the ball would go @ 100% and where it landed when I actually hit it 95%? I was was no where near the marker. I even got stuck in the freaking sand trap for 3 strokes and on the ocean twice. WTF.

The 3 holes before that went beautifully, but that last one has got me all messed up 2 times now. I go from being -1 or Par to Quadruple Bogey in one freakin hole.

Stele · « **Reply #114 on:** June 11, 2009, 07:30:14 PM »

Well the target zone is where the ball ends up after the shot, not where it lands. Your woods and generally 1-5 irons have a very low trajectory, and to end up where the circle is will land several yards in front of the circle. You lower 6-9 irons, and all of your wedges will have a very high trajectory, and generally land pretty close to the front of the circle.

So if you're driving the 18th at Pebble Beach, you should be aiming to the right side of the fairway giving your ball plenty of space to land.

Or you could try all-play mode, which actually is supposed to show your ball's flight path. At least that will help visualize what I'm describing.

Anyway, I got eagle that hole last night in one of the challenges with my created golfer. So it's not that bad.

Thank you. You tips just helped me finish that course -2 on my very next try. We should play each other online soon.

EA Support responded with the usual bull about checking my ports and stuff. I ran the Nintendo tool they suggested as well and it says my network is fine. And since Mario Kart, Smash, Guitar Hero, and Rock Band all work online, I'm really annoyed with their basic support so far.

I mean the online store in career of TW10 works! But the Online button on the main menu will never connect. They could at least tell me what the difference is between the two connections so maybe I could figure out what's wrong.

We're getting a review copy!!! Anybody who's playing online, I'll play with you next week!

Name the time & I might be able to play against you.

So I started the Fed Ex cup last night and I had to quit after the 12th hole. However, to my amazement, I was unable to find a save menu, am I missing something here?

Stele · « **Reply #120 on:** June 12, 2009, 02:27:18 PM »

Usually there is a save and quit option when you pause.

I hope I can ask this with a free "I'm Lazy" pass because I'm so busy with my wedding...

I assume this has already been answered, but this game supports pass the WiiMote multiplayer so you only really need one Motion+ right?

Well usually there is the ability to connect online and play against us forumers too...

I wonder why there isn't a restart option in the challenges though, that would come in handy for when you obviously mess up really badly.

To be honest, I don't really know, but I doubt you would be golfing at the exact same time as someone else while playing on the same Wii, so I think 1 wiimote multiplayer would be obvious. But EA did leave pointer controls out of GST, so who knows.

Stele · « **Reply #123 on:** June 12, 2009, 02:52:11 PM »

Yeah I wonder who they had playtesting this thing. As soon as I started challenges, when there was one I realized I couldn't pass part of the way through I wanted to restart. But having to quit and reload the same challenge is annoying. Not being able to choose frisbee color on disc golf seems like another no-brainer. Just a few little annoyances like that that bother me and keep the game from being perfect.

As for pass the wiimote play, yeah it works in all normal modes and disc golf as well. And I think in all the arcade modes, and the T-I-G-E-R mode. It does not work in the specific "party" mode mini games. It tells you you need more than one wiimote. It sounds like the party thing is more like a collection of minigames that you earn points for and some simultaneous ball tug-of-war thing in there.

D_Average · « **Reply #124 on:** June 12, 2009, 03:33:05 PM »

Anyone figure out the save issue? I have autosave turned on buts it definitely not saving progress in matches. There seems to be only a quit option. I hope I'm just not seeing it as not including the ability to save your progress is a huge oversight in a golf game. Whoever missed that one deserves a dick slap. Having to set aside enough free time in your schedule to play 18 holes is the furthest thing from convenient.
