PGA 2K21 Golf [Game Breaking] Swing Bug

Jump to Best Response

Not sure if this bug is just Stadia related? I've scoured forums looking for any complaints, have not seen any, but there is pretty solid evidence that a "perfect swing" tempo is not registering in game and is turning the swing into a "very slow" unregistered result.

Okay, I apologize, I see the issue here now..

Yes, so this is a terminology issue.... Downswing is incorrect terminology and is the problem with the complaint..
Upswing was incorrect for me. And we should no longer call the mechanics issue a upswing or downswing.

The terminology we use should be changed to the correct terminology. "Backswing", and "Follow thru".

I myself called it the upswing, because you are pressing UP on the controller, I was not referring to the animation of the golfer, so that there is where the miscommunication happens.

I am just as incorrect as the support guy who probably misunderstood, I should call what I was referring to as the "Follow Thru" which is what I am talking about.

I will recontact them and clarify the issue..

Clearing game cache is obviously not an issue for us at Stadia. Clearly you selected Stadia when contacting them? I had too.

there is still a swing bug on Xbox.  I’ve been playing since masters.  I know when my swing is fast or slow. I can’t wait till a new game comes out.

i dont think you can adjust settings mid game in career mode. Even though you can set them in the menu.. I dont think they will apply to that game.

I play on the Xbox and the same issues are happening. One round I will shoot -12 with perfect downswings 80% of the time and the next round I can’t find the fairway.  I shouldn’t have to calibrate every other round. I’m miss the old game, where you actually had control of your swing.

Any idea, when stadia will solve the problem? this is extremely annoying. A made a thousend tee shots and never had one with a perfect timing. The timing is always in one of three position, which are always exactly! the same. I guess since the game is playable on stadia nobody hit a perfect shot except in amateur mode. This is a stadia issue, that doesnt exist on other platforms. On other platforms its just hard to get the timing perfect, not impossible.

For me and a friend the same...

We play on PS4 and PS5 the game on Pro Level. But on Stadia we don't find a perfect swing...

Not on Chromecast, PC or MacBook! I have an 250 MBit connection. There is something wrong defenetly.

Don't look like they care, looks like they tanked it on purpose TBH... Similar bs on their Basketball game they just released.. funny on both games that it affects Switch, Xbox, PC & Stadia, but the playstation is supposedly (from what i've heard) works ok.

So its either a conspiracy, or they make their games on Playstation dev kit and the ports are horrible.

in the beginnig the game was bugged where Founders could not start a game due to some error with not able to support the #0. Since then, with the games swing tempo mechanics entirely broken on above amateur play style, everyone quit already once they got their fed ex cup victory on easy... no more reason to play... too simple on amateur... too broke above... even course architect has issues using the terrain tools

I play this on xbox and playstation. Xbox is incredibly harder on pro.

 

Perfects on playstation are easily achieved,  xbox...good luck.

yeah, it's very clear, the controls on all their @2K games only work on Playstation where they are developing it... This game is broken, NBA2K is broken, and WWE 2K Battlegrounds, once you get into it.. its impossible to counter, because you have to click before you actually see what button to click to counter.. ugh that click is random... 

I would boycott all 2K games outside of PS, and even then boycott them cuz they are trash company, just care about cash shop cash.

I know people on other platforms get perfect swings. I have yet to meet someone on Stadia getting a perfect. What I can say is on the driving range I've pulled my distance marker back to 80% and actually got a perfect swing multiple times. But at 100% it's never happened in hours on the driving range.

UNLESS...

Can anyone confirm this problem is now fixed?

This bug makes the game literally unplayable and yet it somehow persists for months?

Please devs fix this, would love to be able to play the game you created!

Any sign of anything happening with this game? Just started playing again for the first time in ages with mates and forgot this was an issue. Absolute joke.

Just done the same, have this on PC but fancied maybe moving to stadia and selling my gaming rig.

Won’t be doing that, impossible to hit perfect, when I can do it regularly on PC.

Same thing on PS4,on pro setting.Spent an hour and a half on practice range, recalibrated a bunch of times.Only thing that somewhat helps is if I count 1-2.1 pulling back and once I hear the the stick hit the controller I go 2 and up,it seems to work about 45% of the times which is the best I can do.And all the online stuff is set to “pro” at a minimum.They need to figure this crap out ASAP!!!

1) Choose whatever difficulty setting you want in settings and it will select all the appropriate options. 2) Then disable the swing timing slider. I have been enjoying the game ever since I did that.  It's just too hard to get the timing fluidly especially if you using a Stadia controller on tv. That timing option would be ideal for a working mouse situation where you can control how fast your pulling back on the mouse and pushing it forward. But for a controller stick you can forget about it. Just disable swing timing and the game will be much more enjoyable. Trust me. As for money stuff well I have never spent any money whatsever on clubs or other items. I just wanted all the Taylor Made clubs so I played thrugh a season on the tour at 1 round per course and by end of tour i had all the Taylor made Clubs unlocked, If you select the sponsor with the clubs you want you will get there fast. There no need to spend money on credits just play the game and eventually you'll have the clubs you want. I am on season 2 of the tour and this time playing 4 rounds per course like normal.

Did you ever get a resolution to this? I came back to the game months later, and still cannot complete a swing to register, unless making an aggregious hook or slice (arc the mouse right or left on the follow-through)

Please help! My golfer's right arm flies off the club in my follow through it only happens with the Driver & 3 Wood but it ruins the game for me. The practice swings and calibration swings are fine just the actual swing if horrible the golfer if flailing It won't hold the "Rory" Position in the follow through. RB

I know I'm two years late to this, but was there ever a solution?!

The swing timing is just so inconsistent. Some rounds I'm just outside of the white perfect range, which I'm okay with. Still can't hit perfect, but at least I can manage with that. Then other rounds, or even random swings, I have the exact same swing and am as far away from perfect as possible.

 A perfect game in golf would be 18 under par or on a par 72 it is to shoot a score of 54.
