Bugs in This Game

[mcpy2000]

Yeah, I've been playing HSGOT since 2005, and I found some common bugs in this game. I am going to talk about the bugs in OT2 rather than OT1 cause many of you like to go and play online.

Bug 1: Overhead OB
Yeah, this one is very classic, and it seldom happens.
When you shoot somewhere not OB, say for the fairway, and the ball stops on it (or it may disappear from the screen), it pops out a big OB on the screen. I always get this in Autumn Pagoda hole 15 (100% of that 1% chance to go OB)

Bug 2: Nasty breaks
I think most of you get tricked by this. I even get a bigger suffer in Fortress. Although you know how much you should move for a putt, it does not act as you thought. Here is my experience in Fortress Yard hole 3:
It is a 2.2m putt, and it moves fast to the right, but when I aimed that correctly, it moved only half of the way to the right.

Bug 3: 4X homing bug
This only appears in JP version. When you get 4X homings or more in a hole, no matter how the ball acts, it is treated as an OB. The only way to get rid of it is pressing triangle button. It can reduce this bug by 30%.

It's just how the ball is reacting to the green. There are slopes that simply change based on where you're aiming, offering more or less break compared to what your initial aim point shows. You don't putt along the initial line, you putt along the line on which you're aimed. Look at the break after you've aimed your putt to make sure that the break is actually there.

It's a frequent occurrence on OOB/OT2 and yes even real life golf, nothing close to a bug/glitch.

Where are you getting 30% from? Not just that, how in the world did you come to the conclusion that pressing a button would get rid of a glitch such as this? How many tests have you done?

Another weird bug discovered in JP version (not sure for the rest)
When I went online play AP 9H(OUT)RT, other 3 players and I were on the 7th green, while RYOU# did a flag ace.
Among the rest of us, I got the nearest pin (2.5m), but the game shows another player got the nearest pin (5.0m) with a par.:confused::eek:

Probably the biggest glich that I got, was a graphical glich. What happened was I was putting for a birdie on Nakagawa (forgot which hole), and the ground disappeared , only the trees and other objects stayed on the screen, but the entire ground was gone! What should have been a birdie ended up being a Water Hazard because after the ground disappeared there was only water, with trees and other objects floating above it. :(

This is more often in OOB, but still possible to happen in OT2. Very unlucky, mate :(

putts vary from time to time... you can have the right aim and power and still miss. I've noticed this in TRAINING MODE also.You can putt the ball from the same angle, with the same power 10 times and miss a 2 or 3.
