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.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.return of nhl 94 controls in nhl 25
I would like to know if it would be possible to have the nhl 94 controls returned in nhl 25? I bought the game last year and was never able to get used to it even with the hybrid controls. It's not true that hybrid controls are the same. If we are able to go to the moon why can't you bring back the nhl 94 controls?? there is a petition circulating and several people are like me and ask for the return of the nhl 94 controls will you bring them back yes or no??
WOC - Why did you destroy the matchmaking?
What has happened to the matchmaking in World of Chel? We have been enthusiastically playing 6vs6 in World of Chel for years. Since NHL25 this enthusiasm is dwindling more and more. NHL24: Finding opponents in 6vs6 usually took less than a minute. The opponents we found were all at the same level as our club. Every now and then some opponents were 2-3 rank levels better, but overall it was perfect and we had exciting and close games. NHL25: I don't even want to mention the missing matchmaking filter and the bug where a game is only found if you leave the lobby several times. This is simply not right for a full-price game if such bugs have existed since launch. Furthermore, the opponent search usually takes 8-10 minutes. The opponents found are then no longer at our level but well above it. Our players are at silver - gold level. At best, the opposing teams have platinum ranks. Usually even higher. That kills any fun in the game. I don't understand why you came up with the idea of changing what we consider to be perfect matchmaking and now have such a broken and unsatisfactory solution in the game. I hope you get this under control, otherwise we will turn our backs on your game series after many years of fun. Needless to say that all of our club members are also avid HUT players and thus help to finance the CHEL mode.
Imagine if they manage to make NHL 26 worse than NHL 25
NHL 25 is probably the worst thing EA has released, 19/20/21/22/23/24 had their faults and flaws but they were playable. The menus are full of syrup… 🤮🤮 Ice-Q termin”AI”tor, so incredibly boring game play!!!!! You can’t switch player like before, and once you manage to switch to the player you want to be, it's too late and the idiot AI player is just going the wrong way or something else In all my years playing the NHL, I have NEVER played this many overtime games together as I have with this game. Every single match ends the same, you have to work like crazy for 2 goals in 25-30 shots then the AI scores two rubbish goals when there is less than a minute left.... 30-7 in shots VERY FUN GAME I have to say you're doing a great job if you manage to make NHL 26 worse.
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.This game Plays better without x-factors.
Im still on '25 for reference but this is the answer. I've been tweaking gameplay sliders forever to get this game to feel good and seemed to have honed in on settings that played well. But still had that problem of when the ai comes down and wants/needs to score, it just does. Cant stand that part of this game. I've gone into the roster and removed all xfactors from every player for multiple teams (except for goalies wanting them to keep their boost/animations to create saves) and let me tell you! The game plays and feels better than ever. I honestly think that it would be that easy for the devs to fix 90% of what people complain about in gameplay if they would just remove the xfactors.Make NHL for switch 2
NHL needs to be on switch 2 if not NHL 26 then push one out that it will run y’all used to have NHL in the NES era it’s well overdue there’s plenty of people who do want it on switch 2 this needs to happen yall already put madden and NBA and fifa on it go ahead and put NhL on switch 2 so we can actually play the game as well I have a Xbox with NHL but i rarely play it because im barely home I haven’t touched it in over a year but I play my switch 2 on my breaks at work and on my days off after I get done with stuff needed to be done at home I highly recommend yall put it on switch 2
Game performance issues after playing more than 2 hours.
As time goes on. Inputs in the menu lag, the menu lags to load, in game the game stutters, etc. I like to have a few nights to play for a while. I find I have to restart the game after 2 hours. I am on Xbox Series X. No other games do this and my Xbox works just fine otherwise.NHL points.
You guys closed the stores without warning and before the end of the season. Will you guys transfer transfer our green coins back in the new game? I'm pretty sure in some jurisdictions you guys deal with, this would be considered illegal. Also, we could have used a heads up to use our free chel points. The store is so slow and not friendly to purchases that we rarely have motivation to buy anything; but some of us could have used them before the new game.
