WGT Mulit-Player

[luv2golf]

So this has been asked a few times but no response. SkyTrak_Seth , if I missed the post, my appologies.

Will there or is there any intention of having multi-player for WGT or is it going to be a single player simulation solution?

LOL. You've missed it about 20 times

Right now WGT is single player only (local). They never had any need to have local multiplayer in their software prior to teaming up with us. However, they did express an interest in providing that option. I have absolutely no clue on complexity or timing of that effort. I do see the enormous benefit though.

Bummer. Thanks for clarifying the current state of affairs though.

Ya, sometimes the boat sails by and just waves.......... So at this time then the multi-player option is not on the priority list. Is it correct to assume that it won't be addressed until after the roll out of E6, Perfect Golf and TGC?

Im guessing thats down to WGT to work on then and not really something you at ST will be pushing for.. looks like a showdown between PG and TGC at the moment.. with e6 cloud the strong outsider

Hope PG can get to market in similar timeframe to TGC, just so theres a comparision available

Yep, that's on WGT's side.

Sure this has been asked, but will their be tournaments for Skytrak users only? I know you can play in tournaments using your iPhone or iPad, just curious about whether there will be Skytrak only tournaments.

[SkyTrak_Seth]

I don't know details on how it all works, but I know that there will definitely be SkyTrak-only tournaments.

I did too, but I was off of these forums for most of the summer/golf season. Its a shame that the first simulation release is not multi-player locally. I didn't buy SkyTrak with simulation in mind but now that its being developed I do want to play rounds with my friends.

If someone has a connection to WGT, please let them know that multi-player is something I would open my wallet for - within a certain budget (that something like e6 is outside of).
