Golf Star™

Through several updates, tons of frustration, and lots of fun I finally reached level 100. Obviously I enjoy this game but I will tell you this is NOT golf. 500+ yard drives, 90 foot putts, and a bizarre point system that serves to break ties make this something other than a great golf simulation. 9 hole scores of 15 to 18 under are required to just be competitive. You almost have to get eagle or albatross on every hole to have a chance. All that being said I do enjoy this game. Being an avid real golfer the one thing I would get rid of is the point system. Golf is a game of fewest strokes. All square or tied play on or accept the tie. It’s very frustrating to play all square against a higher ranked player only to lose based on a point system. There are no points in golf. So if you’re considering Golfstar I say give it a try just prepare yourself for a lot of beat downs till the time comes when you can score 15 under for 9 holes. Have fun!

I really try to like this game it has some great features. BUT the one huge glaring problem is the total inconsistency on the wind factor and how there is now way to gage a 2 mile an hour wind. I can hit the same exact shot on the exact same hole and one shot will go over the green and the next shot will be short. It drives you nuts as soon as you think you have figured out what effect the wind should have such as in real life on the ball you hit it goes nowhere near where it should. I will copy what someone else said, before you even hit your shot the game has already decided where your ball is going to land. Fix this single problem and it’s a 5 Star game as it plays right now after about 4-6 holes you want to turn it off due to the inconsistency. Update again after several game updates you guys can still not figure the wind out 3 mile an hour wind at my back I hit a full club and come up short of the green. Back out of game go back in play the same hole again with a 3 mile an hour wind in my face hit less then full power on same club hit way over green. Can you see how inconsistent this game is and you want people to spend money on it! You will never get a dime of my money, and anyone who spends money on this game it throwing it away.

I really enjoy this game. I saw the comments about no consistency. That person needs to understand that each club and each shot has conditions that will change the outcome of the shot. This is not the most realistic game but those tend to be a little annoying and less casually playable. This game has a great balance of realism while still being a video game. You cannot change the direction of the ball in the air, which is one of the features I did not like about Tiger Woods back in the day. There are in app purchases but they don’t really make sense because you can earn the same amount as what you would purchase in a few days. My only suggestion would be if you want to make purchasing easier, make sure that it’s worth it. $10 for 1000 gold? So I can get one outfit? But because the rewards are so good for the daily challenges tournaments and everything else, You really don’t need to make any purchases.

Been playing this game for a few years and it continues to entertain me. I agree with others that the physics don't always make sense with ball travel but so be it. I don't agree with those that say you have to spend $. I'm at level 88 and never spent a dime. Granted those who spend money may advance faster but if I got to the top that quick I would be bored! The challenge is all in getting to the top. I do wish I could pull some ultimate gear more often. Tend to just see club covers in ultimate. Only issue as of late is game crashing after powering up things or using transcendence on items. Otherwise I'll play and play and hopefully updates will stay within my iPad 4's availability!! Not sure playing on my phone would be as fun.

Believe the reviews everyone, every upgrade in the past year has made this game worse and worse. Their sole focus is finding ways to force us to make in-app purchases. So yes, believe the 98% negatives lately, the 2 good ones were probably from developers or employees of com2us, whose sole function is to get in our wallets as opposed to providing an enjoyable and competitive game. That’s even if this review gets posted, this will be my 4th in the past weeks and other guild members have also left negative reviews which also weren’t published. Great job Com2Us, you had a good thing but continue ruin it and show your customers that all you’re concerned about is taking our money. Never mind the thousands of players who’ve dumped you in the past few weeks, and more daily even as I type this. lol Way to go guys! But on the plus side, now I’ll have more time to spend with the grandkids since I’m no longer playing. 😊 😊 😊
