pmm711:99.9% don't know
MarchieB:The only thing I’d add is that there is a bit of difference between “Mobile-Only” and the “Coin Room Experts”
MarchieB:WGT has done a piss poor job, in fact IMHO, a totally nonexistent job of integrating the Mobile players with the PC players.
Yes to both . IDK if it is 99.9% ? But very nearly . Those players ( a very high majority ) . Have no clue about the very involved , technical , enjoyable experience , very long journey , etc . That is what we know of the WGT experience to be .
To start at the beginning . By playing ranked rounds . Full 9 or 18 hole rounds .( no info about that on mobile ) . Steadily . Perhaps slowly for most . To go on a journey of playing dozens , hundreds , thousands of ranked rounds . For months and years . To lower your average . To hone your skills . To rise in the ranks . With your peers if you so choose . As most WGTers do . Building friendships and knowledge . While fully entertained and happy and fulfilled .
None of them have any clue about any of that .
I also know that about 10 % of the CC I was with . Had the most informed and active mobile players . They played the mobile version the same way PCers do . Of course they learned first through PC play .
New mobile players have no way to know anything about that world . Many are loners and are happy to stay that way . Not interested in learning about the REAL WGT .
That is their choice . I think it is a shame for so many to miss out on so much .
IMSO .
MarchieB:I’m sorry but if anyone says they don’t know
about the other stuff on the game then it’s their own fault! If someone
says they don’t know I can only assume that all they do is open the app
and hit the “Play Now” button.
Well that is not necessarily true . Navigating for information might not be their thing . And it is not that easy . Mobile players definitely have a disadvantage there .
For me on PC . I luckily found the ability to play multiplayer . JOIN A GAME and CREATE A GAME . I was hooked . Without that I may not have ventured further .
All this time not having the ability for multiplayer on mobile . Is killing that app .
We know ( because we learned on PC ) that it is possible to navigate to Stroke play / ranked rounds . On the mobile app . But not multi player .
New users would never know what their missing .
