changedWe've been working diligently on delivering a top virtual golf experience with Golf Masters and development is on schedule. If you are at all familiar with the game, you may be aware that the swing mechanic implemented in the Oculus version of the game utilized a single button power swing mechanic. While this did deliver a great experience on the DK2, this simple swinging mechanic simply does not translate to the realistic room scale tracking that the Vive provides. While optimizing the game assets and course geometry to ensure that the game will run at constant 90FPS on the high resolution on the Vive, we also are converting all of the game controls to take advantage of the Vive motion controls to bring a never before sense of realism to virtual golf. We fully intend to implement multiplayer capabilities to the initial release of Golf Masters, but this implementation will compete after full motion controls are fininshed and tested.
