PGA Tour 2K23 - 10 Things You ABSOLUTELY Need To Know Before You Buy

[@note2owns]

They need to implement the full 52 tournament schedule and have attributes that are dynamic and increase or decrease depending on how you perform and reflective of your physical being.

[@AwakenedAvocado]

The only thing i want to know about this game is, why isn't Happy Gilmore a playable character

[@titaniumcrayon3090]

Honestly a good question!

[@AJ_Deadshow]

Omg! Brilliant idea. That would 100% be the selling point for me

[@fm23031]

Create him then

[@kissedtokill]

@@fm23031 yeah but would he still swing like a hockey player?

[@chrisrogers3175]

Because happy Gilmore isn't owned by the PGA

[@silasleeks2324]

I'm glad there are playable pros bc at this stage in my life I don't have time to build my player's attributes. I just want to play golf.

[@BigWillLeo]

Facts😅

[@LonghornsLegend]

Agreed

[@CasualGamerPlays]

I’m actually looking forward to this game. I was a fan of Tiger Woods PGA Tour from EA. I’m sure this one will be totally different though.

[@_._._._X]

not as good as EA but better than 2k21

[@kdub175]

yeah I miss the old Tiger games. 2003 was when it got fire an I was hooked. Remember being able to play as all the old legends, Plamer & Nicholas an way more… an the swings were even different in some games, like Jim Furyk’s. Idk why they stopped doing awesome things that would be so good with today’s tech.

[@kdub175]

I just got back into gaming an grabbed 2k21 on Steam when it went on sale last year…was so disappointed that you could only play as just your own custom character…The game play was pretty good, few weird changes imo but it’s quality. Just felt kinda bare bones, like it’s PGA, it should have PGA players to use…idk

It’d be really weird if they just added someone random into the game, that’d be madness. Imagine someone like, say, Michael Jordan? Madness

[@rickinwast]

Thanks for the tutorial! I'm having the following issue w/the game playing in Pro mode. I can't unlock tier #2 although I've repeatedly beaten handily each of the 3 rivals in tier #1. What I'm I missing? Is there a difficulty or other setting I may have missed? At one point when I opened the game up via STEAM, it was like I hadn't played the game. All my fittings gone! I notice too that my last name no longer appeared on the back of the caddie, instead "Pro Golfer". Thanks for any assistance!

[@veertomar632]

[@childoftheking8245]

Can you play offline or do you need internet?

[@billywin2289]

Can you play 2 players with another player in same room as you,2 controllers?? Thanks

[@garyelkins5925]

I don't care about all the sidebar fluff in 23, I just want to play the game as my own player and I don't care to play with hotdogs putter, a flamingo hat or a gold rinstone studed glove. I just want to know if they have fixed the long list of game play. Example, the handicap system, the player statistics, the in-game leaderboard etc.

[@nateword]

same tweak those awful swing mechanics and other irritating things and I'm in

[@jszlauko]

Overall, I really enjoy playing this game, but there is room for improvement. The most frustrating part is the swing when NOT using the 3-click method. There are many times where I swing exactly the same way as I did previously, and yet the ball will have a heavy hook on it, and the swing meter will say I was slow. They need ti improve the calibration portion of the game so it shows in more details exactly what you're doing wrong in the swing. Also, having better commentaries would be nice, instead of the same old stuff being said over and over and over again. Then there are parts of it that are so confusing and poorly documented that I don't even bother getting dealing with it.

[@55giantsfan22]

Will it have the bug that deletes all your clubs and clothing you uave unlocked? 😔

[@travisjp3097]

I live in an area with no online service. Am i screwed like i was with 2k21?

[@ZwinG_]

Can you 2 controller this game?

[@slippery6629]

2 years later and only 3 new courses? I feel like the game will be fun at first but will quickly start to feel like 2k21 again. Sure Top Golf is a cool game mode. Other than some very slight improvement with graphics and playing as Pros, the game doesn't seem like much as an improvement. Is it worth $70? No, but I'll stay optimistic for the future when/if they add more courses.

[@johnlawler6476]

Agree definitely not worth, however I'm looking forward to pre ordering it in a few hours

[@longboardlouie5816]

[@bubbagc859]

Why is Pebble Beach, and St. Andrew’s not playable courses

[@SickDangles13]

People will create them and name them something different 👍🏻

[@paulniven757]

Think it's because ea has got the license for the tournament s that are played there

[@CrazyAboutVinylRecords]

So 17 of the courses that were in 2K21 are back. Not much of an incentive to buy 2K23 if you already bought 2K21.

[@Bolgernow]

As a golfing fiend, love my 2K21! If I'm only getting 3 new courses, ya gotta give me something else new or I'll just wait until price drops (BTW-I really DO like the new Pro's added to it for both men/women & gear, that's VERY cool. Just not enough for me cough up 60 bones)

[@penknight8532]

Only 50 on GreenManGaming right now. Easy purchase for me since I skipped 2k21 and only played 2019.

[@silasleeks2324]

There's always been more apparel options than courses it seems like and as long as Tiger is on the cover that price aint moving. Just my thought

[@Joehockey1990]

Same. I figure I’ll keep any eye on IsThereAnyDeal and look for a 30-50% sale sometime in the next couple months. I have a good 400hrs in 2k21 but I’d bet 2/3 of that running courses that are made by other players or in online leagues. So actually super bummed that we have so few new courses. Really would have expected 5+ more courses per game at least. Granted devs know that we’ll make as many courses as needed to fill in their gaps so I shouldn’t be surprised. Just would have thought that we see at least 1 or 2 from the super courses like Andrews, Augusta, Pebble, etc.

[@tyler_keeble]

I feel the same. Not enough new content and differences to warrant this price tag. I think I’ll stick with 2K21 for the time being. Also keeping an eye out on the new PGA Tour game next year.

[@JTCSmith2305]

[@xburk550]

While I agree they should have added pros in 21, this game was developed by a Canadian company that created The Golf Club. The number one feature was to be yourself in that game. I bet most will play as their own character in 23's offering. Golf is the one sports video games that being yourself is somewhat realistic and true golfers really appreciate.

The fact you cannot sit down and play with your friend in the same room and both log into your own profiles is terrible. After the first log in, player 2 is simply a 'Guest', and cannot see their name, profile, or receive any achievements.
