Yoo hoo Mike, we can see yer.

[Mike Jones]

I have traditionally let AJ make any official announcements as he has always been the corporate figurehead of the company as well as one of the creators and developers of PG. I had a chat with him earlier today about making an announcement to the PG community so something 'official' should be in the news soon. We can't just announce things whenever we like anymore, we need to get authorisation from the powers that be at Trackman so apologies for the lack of hard information but we're not always free to say exactly what we are working on. 

 

For my part I can say that work continues on PG2. With the tremendous support and resources Trackman has given us access so things are moving faster than ever. Of course Trackman's primary use for our graphics is for their simulator and range products and also our continuing work with TV Broadcasters. In that way nothing really has changed as we have always had to give a significant amount of our time and efforts in those directions anyway. The difference is that now with additional staff and support we can multitask a little more efficiently!

 

As far as PG2 is concerned nothing is off the table and that includes PC and Console releases. We have already started to convert our courses over to the new PG2 graphics and things are looking good. Many of you have also seen the new UI graphics interface which addresses one of the big issues people had with PG1 and work continues on that. We still have the same passion for PG and golf gaming in general as we had when this project got underway. It's been a roller coaster and we are not done yet!

 

AJ will have more news so hopefully he will be able to post soon with more information. Thx for bearing with us!

great to hear ,not asking any questions as that would be a moot point at this point

im just gonna wait and be surprised when things happen.

 

good day

[worrybirdie]

Thanks Mike for the reassurance. Let us know when you can.

[mebby]

Good to hear Mike.  Appreciate the post!

[JCat04]

I guess the original FOV will never come back now - not so much on the back burner but in another universe now 

 

I am awaiting an OFFICIAL announcement somwhere like most other posters re the future of the PC game (and console and simulator versions) and, hopefully, its likely road map.

 

I just tweeted a similar question at TrackMan Golf to see if I can elicit a response from them.

[JCat04]

Just read Mike's post after posting mine... that all sounds a lot better than the visions I'd conjured up about where this might lead.  It sounds like a significant step forward for Perfect Golf and Perfect Golf 2!  Thanks for putting an end to the doom and gloom Mike!

[Crusher]

Thank you Mike.

[Richard]

Mike, it’s good to hear from an OFFICIAL source rather than a third party who may or may not have all of the facts. I for one will anxiously await news about Perfect Golf’s future evolution as it is appropriate to disclose.

[Arsam]

Thank You very Mike for helping to relieve some of our fears and speculations on the future of the finest golf simulation available today. Your comments were greatly appreciated.

[DivotMaker]

Very much appreciate the update Mike.

 

Also understand the limitations you guys are under now that TM is running the show.

Told you so!


Lol

[Tigers Agent]

dilly dilly!

[Richard]

Told you so!

You did but it wasn’t your place. You had no right to preempt an official announcement.

....work continues on PG2. With the tremendous support and resources Trackman has given us access so things are moving faster than ever.
 Thx for bearing with us!

Wonderful to hear, the quoted part in particular.

[IanK]

Thanks Mike. I just think it's a shame that this announcement couldn't have been made sooner without contravening any agreement that you had.

[trailblazergolf]

WHEW--feel much better now---and looks like i'll get to keep my PC in golf mode !!!--woohoo--nice to see all positive reaction from guys

  ROLL ON !!

[mebby]

Dude... time to let it go man.  It's not your place to tell Vance what to say or not to say.  He's a grown ass man for crying out loud!  LOL!

All the above.
