is it possible i still have some form of the swing tuner?

had my ps4 in rest mode last night and threw the game on this morning and still had the shorter 3 wood distance with master clubs at the driving range.

If you don't quit out of the game it's very possible you still have the swing tuner update.

got to play one round with the update thought it was a great improvement

I've still got the patched game as I've not played any other games on my Xbox and it seems to stick when I turn it off.
Loving the changes made but the sand shot lies definitely have gone too far.
The driver shot shaper gone AWOL is annoying too.

In the little time I had a chance to play the changes on my xbox s; I loved it.  Hope it returns soon

Well that explains everything. I finally got to play last night and didn't notice any changes.

So to recap the last 2 weeks of when I've found time to play this game:
Night one: servers down
Night two: server update reset.

I think I'm just bad luck.

Just kidding, hopefully they turn it around fast. It was a really good update!

Sorry for being lazy - but what is the current status? Does the game play any differently to release at the moment?

Not at the moment. There was a server side update a few days ago that changed a couple aspects of the game play that really made it feel like a new game, for the better IMHO. But that update was reversed so they could investigate a nasty glitch some people were seeing. It will be pushed out again once that issue is resolved.

I got to play one round with the new ball trajectory & spin and lie effect physics in place.  Like many here, I found the impact of the trajectory and spin changes yielded results that were much closer to reality!  I was very pleased with the way they affected the game.  OTOH, I thought the penalties for light rough were a little severe, and the sand and heavy rough penalties to be significantly overstated.

I had three tee shots roll off the fairway into a fairway bunker.  Visually, they were sitting up perfectly, yet showed a 54 to 63% carry with 5 to 7 irons.  I had 178 yards in one case to the pin with virtually no lip, and hit a perfectly struck 5-iron on flat terrain... the ball carried 106 yards and rolled out to 118 yards

The heavy rough I thought was overly punitive by a factor of maybe 7 to 10%, while the light rough maybe a factor of 3 to 5%. They seemed to be more on a scale of those we saw in TGC 2.  I had the impression HBS' target for this update penalties that would split the difference between TGC 2 and the release version of TGC 2019.

I'm confident that HBS will keep working at it and get this right.  The changes they made to the ball trajectories and spin gave this game a satisfying flavor... I can't say enough about good that looked, played, and felt!

I played a few rounds when the update was in place using master clubs. From what I saw, I liked the trajectories, though they will take a bit getting used to.

I liked the spin. I was pleased that we didn't get unrealistic spin-back.

I hit into the rough and bunkers maybe 5 times. I liked the penalty for being in the various lies.

Overall, my assessment is this. I really liked what I saw. Much more control when you make a good, perfect tempo shot.

However, it is still a bit too forgiving on less than perfect shots. My natural swing is perfect/fast and slightly right of center, which really only results in a tad less accuracy.
