After several delays and a long wait, the next installment in EA’s long-running golf franchise has finally been released. Developed by EA Tiburon, EA Sports PGA Tour continues the PGA tour franchise, this time promising a bigger and better gameplay experience. And if the reviews are anything to go by, then it seems like EA has delivered on its promise. Critics and fans of the series are showering praises for its high-quality visuals and true core pure golf gameplay. DICE’s Frostbite game engine has helped a lot in that regard. However, all is not well for the game. Despite its good reviews, the game suffers from some unfortunate issues. Recently, players have been complaining about being unable to progress in the career mode at all.

It’s one of the few game modes available for players at launch. Moreover, every single sports game has its own career modes, which speak to their value of importance. And not being able to progress in career mode is a frustrating experience, to say the least. Hopefully, our workarounds may be able to fix this problem as EA is yet to push out an official fix. for it.
