  WGTChampion:

  Additionally, we have plans to bring many of the website features into the new desktop version so you can access them directly within the game. 

  Champ,

      As you probably know I have been extremely outspoken about my dislike of the "New" version ...And how the Flash version is far superior ...

  That being said I have been trying very hard to adapt to PCEA as I said I would give it a real try before I abandon  WGT all together come Dec 29th...

  Thought I would voice my opinion of the biggest flaws or "Turn-offs"

   

  1. The continuing issue with the "Billboard" during reverse view putting
  2. This one just drives me nuts....The cumbersome way we have to switch clubs/shot type....Everything takes 2 clicks to do as opposed to just 1 in flash....It may sound like nitpicking but when your up against a 45 sec clock......
  3. The camera issue ugggg ...Again clumsy and time consuming why cant we just have cameras on the mini map and click them ONCE like in flash?
  4. Another camera issue is there are no options to switch to various views when another player is hitting a shot or more importantly when they are putting?    
  5. There are an  excessive amount of "Pop-ups" on the green... we don't need to see a giant "EXCELLENT" when we ding a putt? Just cause it was ding does not guarantee I made the put would be nice to see the roll out ...
  6. Here's a big one...When I am just off the green and I chose to Pitch,Flop,chip which ever...A lot of us hit and watch the shot in reverse view which again helps to see the roll out of the shot.... BUT now soon as you hit  the camera immediately changes back to the standard view behind the golfer and some cases you cant even see the green from that view....
  7. Please, PLEASE don't incorporate the apparel "Boost platform" into anything else ..IE WGT/CC Tourneys It's the only pure part of the game left on PCEA (I have heard rumor's that will be happening 😕) I hope there "Fake News" rumor's...
  8. THE LAG on PCEA is just horrible !!  The constant waiting in between  screens,games switching from settings to Tourney boards to well...  really anything The "Loading" is just sooooo slow?.                                                                                                                                               
  9.  That's all I can think of at the moment....

   

      Now that I have been playing PCEA for a week or so I have a few more  issues...

  10.   When I go to set up any multi-player game ....I often get a "pop-up box" that says something to the effect  of....  "Something went wrong and there is to weak of an internet signal"  Then it gives two icons or tabs you can click "Cancel or Retry" neither really does anything just leaves me in lobby with 3 other players... we can chat but can not tee off....I have super fast internet I'm sure that's not the issue...This only happens when I try to set-up the game ...No issues in any single player game or when I get invited to a game....

  11. Also a HUGE issue ...When I am setting a multi-player game and I click the "Invite" tab it shows a list of all my friends that are "GREEN" or at least that's what you would think.... But from the list of 30 (or however many) Green friends it showed... I would say about 1/3 of them are actually Green and available most that I click on immediately cancel as if they declined.... But it turns out they are not really green....   I discovered this by  opening the Flash game client window at the same time......When I  looked over at the flash friend list MOST of the greens on PCEA where actually not available...

  That one one is a real pain in the a** bug that needs fixing "To Sweet"

  So like I stated I am REALLY trying to give the "New" WGT a try.....BUT this list is growing....

  12. I have yet to find even ONE skins game or a match (Challenge mode) on PCEA regardless if I search to join a game OR I set one up with open invites? And this is at least 50x's I have tried ...Not one person has even showed up and declined? 

  I think the issue is these options are simply not working on PCEA? I immediately wen't back on flash and found MANY available Match Challenge games I also set one up with an open invite and players were popping in the lobby like normal ...Now I know for a fact that from now till Dec 29th cross-platform works between PCEA and Flash and players are online playing so whats the deal?....Oh and on a side note it will work if I invite a specific player that I know is online and available....That is the only time tho..."Random Anybody" searches have not produced even 1 player showing up in the lobby and I have tried at least 50 times now...Same thing for me trying to join a game NEVER NOT ONCE have I found one...

  This will be a huge issue if it continues after flash is gone...

   

   

  Superb post. Remove the " Bill Board" when reverse putting please. Had a putt from 5 feet earlier and the Board covered the whole grid in reverse. Got an invite to join a game and accepted. Then it just kept spinning for ages so i canceled the game invite and exited the launcher.  Like JD said 2 clicks everywhere gets annoying after a while

  Remove the " Bill Board" when reverse putting please.

  You can do that yourself by pressing 'v' on your keyboard.

  The dots dont move then. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  Whats the problem in making it smaller like flash in reverse?  Why is it, do this and try that and why dont ya do this. JUST MAKE IT DAM SMALLER!!  Simple.  Or for people who have to wear Binoculars give an option to make it the size of the moon . Keep them happy as well. And whats up with the game invites?  For a few days when i try that plastic version i get a game invite and accept then all it does is spin.  We spent 10 years in Beta or more on flash now  its starting all over again on the plastic one.  So many players that have been here a long time will walk away unless you pull ya finger out .

  I find this interesting, but my billboard is TRANSPARENT in reverse. I AM able to see the dots. Perhaps this is what WGT had in mind from the start.

  +1

  And if you clear your browser on flash, all your setting clear. As Priestess said Mobile, EA and Flash are 2 different platforms
