Can't HB pull the update NOW.  Did nobody at HB bother testing this release?

Maybe HB could get MS to pull the update if they so desired.

Maybe they are trying to get MS to quickly push out a hotfix that doesn't require certification, maybe they can fix it server side I don't know, would be nice if someone at HB could give us a heads-up so we aren't sitting around here wondering WTF is happening, and thinking the worst, for example waiting until HB submit a fix and then waiting for 1 -2 weeks for certification before we get it or worse than that, nothing happening until the next update sometime in September.................... but so far tumbleweeds and crickets.

Literally the worst thing they could've messed up on. I'm not gonna bother loading the game up until this one's fixed - back to Batman for me!

It's particularly frustrating sitting here watching the update proceed (now at 30%), consuming all my bandwidth, knowing full well that it's going to break the game.

They just handed the ball back to EA and their golf game just as its released in the U.S.

read the reviews on EA seems a crap effort IGN give it 5.5 unless future patches sort this out could be the end of golf by EA

I also thought I read somewhere that the swing mechanics were being changed in the July update to make it harder to always get 100%.  Seems not, I can still pause for a couple of seconds at the top (or bottom!!) of the swing and still always get 100% power.

Absolutely unbelievable that the swing is messed up after waiting for an update to FIX the issues with Season mode .... how on Earth do we get our money back?

Maybe by changing the swing to push /pull was the fix to make the mechanics harder :P

Has there been an official HB response to this issue?  It's gotta be a bug, right?  They can't possibly consider this  legit way to make the game more difficult?  Right?  Right??!!  RIGHT?????!!!!!

No, the left stick was not switched intentionally.  I will update as soon as I have info on it.

The right stick swing is normal.  I switched to it last night and I did pretty well with it.  It does take some getting used to though when you have always used the left stick to swing.

I figured as much.  Appreciate the response so quickly.

The problem with using the right stick is that my hand then nudges the left stick altering the loft and aim, making it impossible to play like that :(

I tried going back to the right stick last night and was terrible.  Feels too much like my real golf game.  :-(
