Game crashing to Xbox Home Screen
I am on Xbox and some games I make it to the end. Others my game will crash mid game. My screen goes black and I get kicked to the Home Screen of my Xbox. Does anyone know why this is happening? There are zero warning signs by the way. One second I’m about to take a faceoff the next I’m on the Xbox Home Screen. Next time it happens I will try and screen record and see what it picks up.Be a Pro Agent Discussion Freezes Game
I’m in 3rd season of be a pro, and when “SIMing to next game” one of my perks expire that starts a conversation with the agent to renew the perk. When the game goes to this visual of the player speaking to the agent, the game freezes and I must quit the game to exit. I’ve tried every way to work around the issue, but I can’t get past initiating the conversation. I’ve hard restarted my Xbox, cleared the cache, uninstalled and reinstalled the game with no effect. I’m guessing it needs a patch of some sort?
Search Times in EASHL
Good morning, After spending over an hour in a lobby last night searching for a 6’s game in EASHL with my friends we gave up. I have signed in again this morning and tried searching for a 6’s game with 2 friends. After 45 minutes we gave up and went to 3’s. We have played one game of 3’s in the past hour. These are quick 20 minute games. I should be able to play 3 of these in an hour. Ever since you guys did your update last Monday the searches have been more frustrating and time wasting than anything. At the start of the year searches were bringing up people in Europe or bad ping but at least we were finding quick games. I could quit out, search again and eventually find a good ping game. Do you guys plan on addressing this problem? This has been ongoing for years but this is by far the worst I’ve ever experienced. Please stop focusing on making new gloves and toques and concentrate on match making. Thank you.Skill Based Matchmaking?
We are a team of silvers in WOC and routinely get matched against platinum/blues or purples, both in 6s and 3s. No surprise we get smoked. We should NOT be matched up against these kinds of teams with 25,000+ RP when we’re barely hanging onto 17,000. Can we get some skill based matchmaking in here? Here’s ONE example in the pic… unreal. We’ve been paired against two different teams with the top rankings possible tonight.NHL 26 Kickstarters for PC & Switch 2
This yearly debate is tiresome - we want it - EA says they don’t believe it will be profitable or profitable enough. There is an easy answer - put it on Kickstarter and EA gets to decide what the magic sales number is. Your customers get to prove their commitment with pre-sales - win/win at putting this frustrating argument to bed right (and costs EA nothing but a few mins of time)? Either way, the proof is measurable and not an arbitrary argument about theoretical estimates and if the kickstarters fail - the customers are to blame, not EA Management/Leadership. This can be revisited the same way every few years and it puts NHL’s platform future in the supporters’ hands. Please present this to the right internal people - the fans will thanks you for the opportunity to make our request a reality.Be A Pro needs to be fixed
It is insanely unrealistic and not a fun mode to play currently. I think that form score has completely ruined my motivation, as well as many others, to play this game mode. The expectations are ridiculously high and make no sense. You barely play on the 4th line when you are able to get there. There is no reason why I should have to have 40 points in 20 games to keep moving up lines. It has been a month and not even a consideration towards the mode has been made. Please fix this, I spent a lot of money on this game with high expectations only to have them shot down.EA NHL API Issue (proclubs)
There seems to be an issue with the EA Proclubs NHL API for certain teams to get match details. For example the team “M E N” or “The Simpsons” will show no match details from the API but other teams like “Violent Gentlemen” have no issues and displays match details. M E N (clubId 2555) - https://proclubs.ea.com/api/nhl/clubs/matches?platform=common-gen5&clubIds=2555&matchType=gameType5 shows nothing for M E N >> screen shot attached Violent Gentlemen (clubId 1019) - https://proclubs.ea.com/api/nhl/clubs/matches?platform=common-gen5&clubIds=1019&matchType=gameType5 Successfully shows their match details… screen shot attached. Can someone look into this issue? ThanksNHL25 sim league

EA Log-In Screen?
Hello EA, Might I recommend the next future game patch includes a EA Account Log-in screen. Many people, including myself, cannot access online content because NHL 25 automatically tries to log me into an old non-functioning email account. I can't change my email account login because EA Connect needs to be logged into in order to be allowed to make this change. If installing NHL 25 the first time had a log-in screen so players can choose which EA account they wanted to use would help solve this problem. I paid $100 to play NHL 25 with no access to the on-line game features! Please fix this....Online Co-Op Vs. Computer
Hi. My best friend and I grew up playing NHL, we started playing on my Dad's desktop in the living room on NHL 04'. Yeah. When we grew up and moved to seperate states, our favorite thing to do was get in the same lobby online and play against a computer team. We didn't like playing against each other and didn't like playing other online players. We'd go through all the teams until we beat them on the highest difficulty. It was always an absolute blast and this feature always made me purchase the game. The last time we got do this was NHL 18', 6 years ago. 6 years. Time flies. I haven't bought an NHL game since then because this simple, (so simple, it hurts) feature was taken away and hasn't been implemented since. Please, please escalate this if you're able to. I miss playing NHL man. I miss playing it with my best friend. Any online co op mode vs the computer and I'll be happy and dig into my wallet, connected franchise, 3's, I don't care. Just SOMETHING. I figured these forums are the only way to maybe get my voice heard. I don't understand why it was ever removed. When the new NHL comes out, I look online to see if a co-op mode like this is available. Every year it isn't. My heart hurts man. I love hockey and used to love this game. I hope soon I'll get to enjoy it again. If you made it this far thanks for reading.Salary Cap increase by season don’t keep up to players expected salary
In franchise mode, after a few seasons, players salary expectations are too high. Some players ask close to 20m per year. That is a problem because salary cap increases only roughly 2m per season. The salary cap increase should be adjusted as it is reported that by the end of next year salary cap could increase to 117m. I had this salary cap only in 2036!!! Please adjust this, I know I can play without salary Cap, but this would be more realistic and playing without salary cap gives a great advantage for player when compared to CPU.
Bring NHL back to PC – Crossplay potential
Hello EA Sports NHL Team, I have been a loyal NHL fan since NHL 07 on PC. After that, I played every NHL game on PS3, PS4, and PS5, buying each new release. But now that I’ve switched to PC, I can’t play NHL anymore, and I really miss it. I truly believe NHL on PC has great potential, especially with crossplay. Many PC players want to play with their friends on consoles, both together in online clubs and against each other. If crossplay works in FIFA and NBA, why not in NHL? Eventually, it will have to happen, so why not now? By not releasing NHL on PC, you are losing dedicated fans who have simply moved to a better platform for graphics and performance. It’s frustrating that I can no longer enjoy NHL with my friends like before. My friend and I used to create an online club—me as a Center, him as a Goalie—and we had so much fun playing together. Now, I have no way to experience that, and I know I’m not the only one in this situation. I don’t want to buy a console just for NHL, and I don’t want to be forced to just watch others play while I sit out simply because I chose to game on PC. Please consider bringing NHL back to PC with full crossplay support. There is a demand for it, and many fans would love to see it happen. Thank you for your time.
