Swing meter (three click) option

[CSR]

I would not hesitate purchasing this game if there was a swing meter (three click) option.

Are we still on this? How about we agree to disagree. Some of us won't buy if there is 3 click as it's not at all about feel. So for those of us who don't want 3 click, we have TGC. For those who do want it, there's Perfect Golf. Then everybody's happy.

It is what it is... I am not saying which is wrong or right, but it doesn't look like "3 click swings" are ever going to be a part of this series. As the previous poster mentioned there is a simple solution, and that is if it's a deal-breaker for someone then they can just play Perfect Golf instead.

Making additional posts about this subject when it has already been posted about to death isn't going to do anything.

What intrigues me is why having the option of either the present system or a 3 click system should get people so irate.
I personaly don't care what system a person uses as long as they enjoy it.
If the Dev's made it so that people using 3 click systems can't play at the same time as people using the present system what's the big deal?

i agree there, but it is a dev decision, so it wont get in this game.
and the huge amount of consolepalyers dont need it anyway.
get jnpg if you want to 3 click or the old links2003, still a very good game.

Have you tried Perfect Golf? It is rubbish.

It's already stupidly unrealistic how some sets of clubs are way easier to hit than others, no need to add the swing mechanic into that equation.

I was going to make a serious response to this utter drivel but I remember you as the OP of similar "expert" assertions re handicaps.

You're a wind-up merchant having a giraffe, aren't you matey boy....?

Dont be put off, imo this swing style feels much nicer, more like your actually swinging a club (well as much as moving your mouse can feel like swinging a club lol)

It takes a little while to get used to it, but theres much more to a swing, like keeping the line (club path) straight, judging your power (animation is your power metre), and getting the speed or tempo of the back and foreswing correct. 3 click is too old school and analogue, this feels like a step forward for golf games to me :)

I mostly agree with the previous comments however, Yes I prefer 3 click, yes I've played Perfect Golf and yes I now play motion swing in TGC (mouse) BUT.......the lack of 3 click in The Golf Club IS going to cost the Devs money as there are loads of people who enjoy golf games but will refuse to purchase this series due the lack of 3 click, it makes poor monetary sense IMO.

Don't worry, even if they implemented 3-click, the folks clamoring for it will just be disappointed by the arcade ball mechanics. That's the deal breaker for me. This is the 4th game and it still isn't fixed.
