Edit Players In Franchise Mode
Hey EA! Thank you for the improvements that you have made to Franchise mode, so far I am enjoying it. One question I have is why don’t we have the ability to edit players on other teams anymore? Franchise mode would be so much more fun if we still had the creative freedom to edit players on other teams for things such as positions, player type, etc. An example of how I would use this is in my Franchise mode after doing a fantasy draft…. Columbus has 6 80+ overall LD, and no 80+ overall RD. In real life the coach would still play the 80+ LD on the right side, but in the game they have 2 of the LD scratched, and they are playing a 77 overall RD. If I could edit the players then I would add RD as their secondary position that way they wouldn’t be scratching their good players. This is a simple fix, can you please let us edit players again?
Team Builder in NHL 25
The addition of team builder to NHL 25 would be incredible. For many years, I have spent countless hours in the creation zone, creating hundreds of teams and thousands of players. Team Builder is far superior to the NHL creation zone. The creation zone has barely been updated since 2017 (maybe even longer?) and Team Builder would be a fantastic solution and a welcomed feature. This is something that benefits both online and offline players. Thanks EA.
Please bring NHL back to PC — it's long overdue
Hi EA Sports team, With the NHL playoffs in full swing, I’ve been trying everything to get a decent hockey experience on PC — old titles, mods, emulators, and even Xbox Cloud Gaming via Game Pass. Unfortunately, none of it truly works well, and there’s still no official way to play NHL on PC in a way that feels modern, sharp, and satisfying. I tried playing NHL 24 through Game Pass, but the image quality is heavily compressed and blurry, even on a wired high-speed connection. It’s not remotely close to the quality PC gamers expect. Buying a console just to play one game feels excessive — and honestly, not the most environmentally responsible choice either. PC gaming already has the hardware, the community, and even handhelds like Steam Deck ready for your game. Please bring NHL back to PC. With FIFA (EA FC) and Madden now fully supported, NHL is the last major sports franchise missing. It’s time. And hey — if you don’t make your money back, I promise to sell my house to cover development costs. Yes, I’m that confident there’s a market. 😉NHL 26 HUT Ranked needs overhaul
The ranked is so inconsistent you can go from one player who seems to be new at the game to someone who doesn’t stop playing even if he had to use my washroom in the same div for ex platinum one I have played more then 10 matches and it’s been constantly inconsistent the one example I have is my two most recent games I beat this guy 7-1 very easy win then I go against another guy bro seems like an EA pro like EA sports type stuff he puts up 5 goals in the first and I scored 1 I left before the period ended cause like I ain’t winning nor do I really care that much abt 1k xp or 300 coins 💀and what’s up with no missions with coin rewards like millstones like it used to be yall greedy mfs really want people to spend money on packs that badly your starving us of coins give me a break fix your game fix ranked most importantly to be more balanced when it comes to what I mention above yall should use the percentage ranked like almost every other game uses that has a ranked mode stop tryna be different 💀💀💀🙏🙏🙏
How to learn to play better NHL 25?
Howdy, my fellow NHL 25 players. I probably just am too old and too slow to be good in this game. 😁 What other than just play as much as I can could I do to get better? Any tips? Currently I get slammed by checks or at least separated from the puck in the same millisecond I have it. Not gonna lie, but in BAP on Semi-Pro level I seldomly have the time to even pass the puck. What do you folks do first when you get the puck? What is the key to not getting hammered and disconnected from the puck in a blink of an eye? Appreciate any tips. But I am aware, that it just might not be my destiny to be good at this. 😎 See you on the glacier anytime and take care.
[Suggestion] More cross platform modes and better party support
Have been playing World of chel specifically to play with friends who are cross platform. HUT you can’t even make a party to talk in while playing casual. One thing I would love to see worked on is ability to create a party from the main menu and setup an online versus game or tournament with friends.
NHL 26 - PC (yet another thread asking for it)
Firstly, I'd like to start with mentioning that I've played this franchise since I was a kid. My first one was '07 back on PS2. I loved hopping on and playing every chance I could. I was an every-other-year buyer of these games up until NHL 21, and it wasn't because I stopped enjoying them. It was because I, along with more and more gamers every year, made the move to PC. One of the only things I miss about my Playstation is the NHL games. If a new NHL game were to come out on PC - even better, on Steam? Instant wishlist. Instant buy on release day. I wanna play Be a Pro again. Make more expansion teams in Franchise mode again. Find some people to play in an EASHL club with again. It's not as if there's no market. PC grows year over year. Look at Capcom's recent earnings report, for example. Capcom has been a console-first developer/publisher for as long as it's been around. Their most recent huge title, "Monster Hunter: Wilds", actually ended up having more PC players than console players - a first for that series. And that's just one concrete example of the numbers supporting PC's meteoric growth. Streaming the game through Gamepass isn't a solution (though it's better than nothing). A lot of gamers, including myself, don't have an internet connection reliable enough to stream games. More still don't have one strong enough to stream games and play online modes. We need a real PC version of these games going forward.
Is the PC Community being Ignored By EA?
Every year the amount of people who want NHL on PC grows and every year its disappointment. Is the PC Community being Ignored By EA? as a person who moved fully to PC this year and as part of the PC community who wants NHL on PC it feels like a pipe dream or never gonna happen. i wish EA would be honest and transparent about this so we dont have a little hope every year. that a NHL 26 or 27 or 28 will launch on PC. NHL is a top seller in canada and i feel it would be a top seller in our region (Canada) on PC too. i wish theyd just release nhl for one year and test the market since it hasnt been tested since nhl 09 which had no controller support. PC has been a popular platform since 2015 and grows massively every year . i just dont get it.Icon player switching for NHL 26 is a must
Just like the title says. The game will be behind the 8 ball on release if icon player switching without the puck isn't implemented. It's been 2 iterations of icon player passing now. It needs to be implemented for NHL 26 to allow faster defensive swaps instead of having to hold the trigger and down and hope the sticks registers to the right player at the right time. Icon player switching without the puck is must for 26
