Everybody's Golf Arrives on August 29 For PlayStation 4 - Post Impressions

I shook off the rust pretty quick. Just got my first hole-in-one.

Edit: Ugh. Does it not auto save videos like OOB? It didn't save video of the ace. Glad I took a screenshot at least.

You can get some extra lift with backspin, but early on it's not going to do much. Higher-numbered clubs will lift the ball more too, like the wedges. In those situations though, you might be better off "taking your medicine" and pitching out to somewhere where you have a better shot. Usually it's not going to be worth the risk of torpedoing your entire round just to clear one obstacle.

Manual link is on the Overview from the PS4 "dashboard". It just opens in a web browser.

Learned this lesson the hard way when I hit a tree, went into the rough and double bogied the hole. From that point onwards I play a safe shot to get around the obstacle and into the fairway. Downside is I can't birdie the hole so was wondering if there's something I was missing but I guess sometimes you have to play safe.

Reached Rank 2 a few mins ago unlocked the back 9 (Eagle course) along with another caddy and absolutely loving the game so far. Wish Sony comes out with a similar title for Tennis as well. So far I'm finding it an enhanced version of Wii sports games - simple & addictive gameplay but much more indepth & immersive.

Played the introductory tournament. Absolutely love the game so far. Blew a birdie on the first hole because I'm still used to the OOB advanced swing mechanic. Still won the tournament, but I'm rusty.

Already bought the DLC course and I've got the preorder one too. Will definitely be playing this a lot. Has a bit of a Disney Infinity + Hot Shots Golf feel to me with the Home area.

How do you drive the cart? I saw it but couldn't get in it.

It seems you have to beat a guy wearing racing kit. Got this message when I reached Rank 2. I guess he would be one of the boss AI golfers you have to beat on way to get to Rank 3 and will be able to unlock and drive the cart when you do so.

If it happened in an "unofficial" tournament, like one with the larger cups, then no, it doesn't. You can always use the ps4's video capture if there's something you want to record in one of those.

That explains it.

Hate that I have to work tomorrow. I could easily stay up all night playing this.

Folks, are you seeing picture based feedback mentioned in the manual below?

https://docs.playstation.com/reader/#/documents/everybodys-golf-ps4?chapter=4&page=3

I haven't seen any of the pics (turtle, rabbit etc.) the manual mentions after hitting a shot. If you guys are seeing this feedback, any idea on how to turn it on? Also, how do you turn on/off "Auto Impact"? I want to make sure it's turned off and want to rule it out as the reason I'm not seeing this picture/image based feedback.

I don't remember seeing it for myself, but I was doing pretty well. I know I saw the turtle and rabbit a few times for the CPU in match play.

Auto Impact was off by default for me I think. Unless I inadvertently turned it off somehow.

Hmm, it'll pretty clearly say "Auto Impact" down by the shot meter if it's turned on. Mine is off (save for one event where I was forced to use it), and I definitely get the pictures when I miss impact. You have to miss the pink zone for it to count as "bad" impact though - missing perfect impact but staying inside the pink zone will still give you a decently-aimed shot.

If your shots aren't going where you want them to when you aren't getting bad impact, it might just be coming down to your Control. Not much you can do about it early on other than try to get close to the pin and level it up for your clubs, and use the Pin Hole clubs when they become available.

What rank do you have to be to unlock fishing?

Strange as I don't recall seeing any pics. Will pay more attention tomorrow when I play the game. I had to use "Auto Impact" for one of the matches on Rank 1 and other than that I thought I was using the classic "3 shot control mechanism".

i've seen that rabbit and turtle a ton...my wife always says "angry bunny" whenever she gets mad so it's sort of a running joke and when we saw it in the game we about laughed our heads off!!

I'm seeing the Rabbit face all the time.

Played 3 rounds last night and another 3 rounds this morning before work and the one word to explain this game is FUN.

Don't really understand how the leveling system works yet or how to unlock the other courses yet as I only have 2 nine hole options to play but damn is this game fun. I like the other title a lot but I don't get the laid back relaxing fun that this title offers.

I'm loving it what little I played of it. I still wish they had the swing meter in it but I'll get used to the actual meter over time

Re: Everybody's Golf Arrives on August 29 For PlayStation 4 - Watch The New Trailer

Still got it.



Smoked the all of the CPU's by over 10 strokes - apparently they don't play well in the rain, even on serious mode. Free XP if you get a rainy tournament and swing harder than you normally do.

My lack of knowledge of real golf, but what do the numbers mean next to your score on each hole? The 1's and 2's.

And I got to rank 3 last night, at least I think, I'm not fully understanding how this rank system works, but I can't find or figure out how to use the golf cart. I won two tournaments after the second it gave me a certificate saying rank 3 or something.
