This has happened 3 times now when I've played with someone who was having a bad connection overall.
When I goto hit my 2nd or 3rd shot (in every instance it happened while putting) it says I've hit an unplayable area and I get +1 stroke from what I normally would get. Then on the next hole after I tee off the entire game just closes without warning. Then upon starting the game updater it sends an error log.
It doesn't count it as a quit, but I also gain nothing (it's as if the game never took place).
It seems to happen due to some type of de-synch issue (I shoot my 2nd shot before he "sees" me shoot my first one).
This is a pretty big problem because it's 100% dependant on your opponent. If your connection is crystal clear this still occurs if your opponent has a poor connection.
This bug has never happened until I played someone who I knew was having trouble with his connection.
Also on a related note I've had 2 random DCs that did count as quits but I never purposely quit. The game just stops responding entirely but my internet is still working (all of my internet services stayed online). I've never had this happen on A18 (I have a 0.2% quit rate after thousands of games).
