nhl 23 on pc
hello dear developers. I know that NHL is not released on PC. you said that if there is demand, you will return the series to the PC. so I know a lot of people who would like to play this wonderful game on pc. but instead we are forced to play either nhl 09, or use an xbox or playstation emulator, which requires a very powerful PC and even this does not guarantee stability. I think it's time to revive the NHL series for PC. I ask you to support the topic, who agrees with me. thanks!
NHL 20 on PC. Needs to happen.
Dear EA, I think its time to finally let the PC players enjoy some virtual hockey. And I think I am not in the minority when I say that. Releasing NHL on PC makes more sense than releasing Madden on that system, if you ask me. PC port should be the next logical step in this series, and that would be the step that ensures the domination of EA in the market. Please, EA, make it happen.
EA Sport NHL gaming servers in Russia
https://secure.avaaz.org/en/community_petitions/EA_Sports_EA_Sport_gaming_servers_in_Russia/share/?new&jEDCIob Addressed to the EA sports To Whom It May Concern: I, Russian virtual hockey player have been a customer of yours for many years, in particularly speaking about the video game NHL. I am asking you to consider the possibility of installation of the gaming servers in Russia. In connection with not being able to play the game without any troubles caused by the high ping, more than 60 - 200 ms. Because of that the network gaming options of your product are considered to be unusable. If you are not going to contemplate our concern regarding this problem and take actions to improve the situation, our Russian hockey community will be unfortunately forced to stop using your product. Sincerely, Br Russian virtual hockey player
Offline Creators Wishlist
I love to create teams/leagues/cups and more in the offline modes, and I think many of the things I list down below is more than me that would love to have it in the game. Some of the things are probably easy to implement in the game but gives us a game that we would love even more. And some of the things would take more effort from EA to implement but would still make the NHL game even better than it is today. More National teams (Even if there is generated players like in Japan, Ukraine...) Slovenia - Have played in WC D1 A for 5 years now (In NHL22 after IIHF update Dec 2021) Hungary - Have played in WC D1 A since 2017 (In NHL22 after IIHF update Dec 2021) South Korea - WC D1 A since 2019 and last olympics (In NHL22 after IIHF update Dec 2021) There is a few problems with the National Teams setup in NHL games right now. * There is doubles of the same players in the roster file. Thats means that if you move out a player from the National team roster, there is two of the same player in the World in many cases. * You can´t edit a player if he is only in the National Team roster. If you want to edit the player you need to move him to a club team, edit him and then move in back to the national Team. Lots of extra work there. * You can´t have players under the age of 18 in the National Team roster, We all remember the Rasmus Dahlin problem in the last Olympic Games, everyone had to create a custom Rasmus Dahlin to be able to have him in the Swedish Olympic roster. And we all know that there is always a few young upcoming stars playing in the World Championships for some nations, that we have to manually create. And we also have to cheat the system even with a created player. - Change his age to +18, assign him to the National team, and then change his age back to under 18. My idéa of a solution to all of this three problems is that we handel National Teams rosters the same way we handel created teams rosters. We assign players to the team with an option like in Create a team roster, and only get copies of the players in the roster. If we remove the player from the national team, there is no double anywhere. And we get the option to actually edit players in the National team roster. (And yes it will change the real player in the club team he is on). More leagues: Slovakian Extraliga EIHL (Great Britain) KHL (We can all dream) and name NHL 23 to Hockey World 23 😉 Mestis (Finnish second division) Alphs Hockey league USHL NCAA Customization (This is the big part of the wishlist and would make the game - Play - No limits) 😉 - Be able to use all logos that is already in the game (not only NHL and ECHL) when creating a team - Be able to fully edit all players in a franchise save (change RW to LW for example) - Be able to have arenas that is not PRO in the Franchise mode/create a club, like its in EASHL clubs in the beginning. - Remove the limit to move an underaged player to only a CHL Team in Player Movement - Rosters. (In Europe underaged players do change teams IRL) - Citys that are missing when creating a team or player: Sweden: Huddinge, Kiruna, Halmstad, Karlstad, Gävle, Ängelholm, Örnsköldsvik, Kristianstad, Norrköping, Karlskoga, Uppsala, Västerås, Tingsryd, Ljungby, Västervik, Oskarshamn, Boden, Kallinge Finland: Rovaniemi, Joensuu, Vantaa, Forssa, Kokkola, Kajaani, Iisalmi, Imatra, Keuruu Russia: Sochi, Yekaterinburg, Podolsk, Khanty Mansiysk, Voskresensk, Vladivostok. Austria: Salzburg, Villach, Klagenfurt, Innsbruck, Linz, Graz EIHL: Belfast, Coventry, Cardiff, Dundee, Kirkcaldy, Guilford, Sheffield Slovakia: Banska Bystrica, Kosice, Nove Zamky, Presov, Liptovsky Mikulas, Michalovce, Trencin, Nitra, Poprad, Spisska Nova Ves, Zvolen. Poland: Tychy, Kraków, Katowice, Oświęcim, Nowy Targ, Sanok, Sosnowiec, Jastrzębie (JKH GKS from CHL), Toruń, Krynica, Gdańsk, Bytom Ukraine: Kremenchuk, Kiev, Donetsk Norway: Oslo, Lillehammer Kazakstan: Nur-Sultan, Astana Lituania: Vilnius, Elektrenai, Kaunas Others: Riga (Latvia), Minsk (Belarus), Tallinn (Estonia, Ljubljana (Slovenia), Shenzhen (China), Seoul (South Korea), Anyang (South Korea), Lake Placid (NY, USA) Playoff mode - Be able to play just the playoffs from any of the 13 leagues in the game, not just NHL. (Like you can in season mode) (It looks odd men Two teams from Finland wins Stanley Cup and not Liiga in playoffs mode for example) - Be able to make a custom playoff mode - name and teams in it Tournament mode Be able to create a custom tournament (for example Olympics, World Cup or others) and not just Spengler Cup and Champions Hockey League Be able to swap the teams in Spengler Cup and Champions Hockey league Franchise Mode - Have the opportunity to send players to their ECHL affiliate, and not just to the AHL affiliate. - Be able to fully edit generated players in the draft (or be able to do it after the draft, change face, name, etc) - Be able to edit the names and apperance on the generated coaches in your team (NHL + AHL) Add - non american names to players born in Norway, Denmark, Poland, Hungary, Austria, Slovenia and Croatia for the generated players in draft. (Your friends at FIFA have a good name pool for these countries) - Be able to set the amount of teams that will be in the Franchise mode (for example if you want to use a roster from 1995/96) - Be able to choose the amount of games set to a season (25,50, 66 or 82 for example - regarding to how many teams there is) Play Now Mode - Have the opportunity to choose what arena the game will be played on. (And options to choose from every arena in the game or created in Create a team mode or the standard EASHL and CHEL arenas) - Have the opportunity to choose if the game will be played in a outdoor rink (with those options for arena, maybe even the ones from CHEL and EASHL) - Have the opportunity to choose the value of the game that will be played. (For example World Championship semifinal, Stanley Cup Conference Final or LIIGA Final with those logos and settings for commentators and winning ceremony) League mode Be able to create a custom league (be able to set number of teams, set the amount of divisions/conferences/or just have the European way with no division and conferences and if you want to have a relegation/promotion league system) And then be able to choose freely what clubs you want to have in the mode. Choose what kind of league Logo and name you want it to have. I was thinking that not all of us want to play Franchise mode with 32 teams, but we still would like to play more than one season. Because the problem with Franchise mode is that its connected with AHL (farm teams). Arenas Be able to change and edit the arenas for teams that have a generic arena. For example if I play with Växjö Lakers, the arena is now EA Sports Arena, Stockholm. I should be able to edit what arena Växjö have in the game and be able to rename it to Vida Arena in Växjö (just like you can change and edit generic arenas in FIFA for those teams that dont have a licensed one in the game). CHL (Champions Hockey League) Be able to change the teams before you start a season, just like you can do before you start a league season in the game. These are the ones I wish now. But if EA NHL would like to know more of these ones, be free to contact me, I would love to help creating even a better NHL game.No NHL on PC?
Why can't I buy this game (or any other EA Sports game other than FIFA) for PC? Looking back at my history, I have been asking this question for more than three years. The NHL series has been absent for EIGHT years on the PC, and EA just recently removed my ability to purchase NHL 09 from Origin, the software distribution platform. I'd like to know why EA continues to ignore the largest, most profitable gaming community on the planet.Fully Unlock edit player for Franchise Mode
I think this warrants it’s own thread topic.. we want the edit players function to be unlocked for us.. and not just the basics but everything unlocked please. It makes no sense why it was removed. It would allow us to fix the generated prospects because their attributes, position and play style are always so chaotic. you get a prospect that is a sniper.. centre, who’s 6’6, 235lbs, with high body checking, aggressiveness, def awareness, strength stats.. but low off awareness, skating, puck skills, face offs.. this clearly should be a grinder and winger but we can’t change it.. and for the players that are into super realism.. young NHL players grow.. some might still grow an inch.. but mostly, players get beefy.. they train. They go from 6’1 175lbs to 6’1 195lbs of muscle and we can’t edit their strength attributes, or their weight so it reflects properly and let’s not forget that EA themselves also incorrectly lists players heights/weights.. and even positions. so let us fix it. It just doesn’t make sense that the edit player was removed.. and never have got an answer from the EA letting us know why please unlock edit player and allow FULL customization at start of save file, mid season, 15 seasons in.. just fully unlock itNHL 14 Jersey Code

Creation zone improvements
I have a dream. Easier and quicker way to create a player: 1) Set player's name, size, face, equipment etc. 2) Set player type: playmaker, power forward etc. 3) Set player's overall, for example 82 4) The game should set player's skills automatically (of course still editable) Player equipment: - option to remove helmet - some vintage helmet, now we have only Jofa - vintage mask for goalies Creating a team: - vintage style arena and ice - European style arena and iceWhy have they have removed the basic ability to edit players in Franchise mode?
Im still so confused as to how this is still an issue. Literally every sports game has this ability in franchise and the NHL series had it too up until they added the chemistry system and completely removed the ability to edit attributes. I mean we cant even change a guy from LW to RW. It feels like they are forcing a mode down our throats that is supposed to be a fun, offline mode where you can run your own league and they are giving it to us with the least creative freedom and customization possible. I was excited to play the trial today but was so disappointed when i saw that literally nothing about franchise or customization has changed. Theres the same blank selection of faces, jerseys and logos that we had since 2015 to chose from when we create a player or team. They are literally the only sports game with out a face builder either. It just sucks so much as a player who enjoys franchise mode to see the game completely neglect the half the community who dont splurge on HUT player packs. These are also things which are the easiest to add into released games but im not getting my hopes up with how disconnected from the community the dev team seems to be. Them unlocking the ability to fully edit players in franchise would really go a long way into showing they care about offline players experience and i guess we can only wish they cared about these small, simple fixesCheaters Do Not Prosper / How to Report Cheaters
A friendly reminder to our community that any form of exploiting or cheating that results in an unfair advantage is strictly prohibited. Just as we have done in the past, cheaters are identified and penalized. This may include (but not limited to) leaderboard stat wiping, temporary suspension of online access privileges and permanent user account ban to all EA games. We understand this notice does not directly concern the majority of our community who play the game honestly but it’s important that we are clear about our position on cheating. Don’t cheat, plain & simple. How to report cheaters: If you have been face off looped, or if you notice win trading, use the how-to below on how to report cheaters. Instead of coming in and posting a thread about it here that will get YOU reported for breaking a TOS rule, this is how you should do it. If someone scored a glitch goal or played cheesy in anyway, there's no need to send a PM. Send one of the mods a PM.

You can also look at you recent players list on your xbox. Not sure if PS3 has this.) EAsportsworld webpage of cheating team: Every team has a team page on EAsportsworld.com - You need to include the link to their page. I'm not gonna search for it. What happened: Self explanatory Evidence: Of course, it's not always evidence is at hand. But if you have taken videos of the cheating or any of the sort, include the link to that here. It will help a lot. Without evidence, and only one complaint, not much is likely to happen. That said, all evidence has to be reviewed, and it has to be without a shred of doubt, if action is going to be taken. Also, even if you don't have any evidence, I'd like you to send a PM. Now, as I mentioned, sending a PM does NOT guarantee that action will be taken, not even with evidence. Thank you for your attention. (source: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/7534195.page)
