Re: Game Speed Opinions?
When I think of this topic, I think about how I perceive this game's speed of play vs. real life speed. In that aspect, this game is FAR too fast, and has been for years. They removed default slider presets this year, so we no longer have a Full Sim option, but that didn't do much to mitigate the issue either. On top of that, I THINK that All-Star and Superstar AI have significantly faster foot speed than Pro AI and below, so playing against difficult AI may result in even more arcadey game pace.
Additional fun fact: Not only is the pace of play too fast, but so are shot attempts. I was cracking on average a 110 mph wrister with Taylor Raddysh of Chicago...he has 87 wrist shot power.
While I think sliders need a minor overhaul, the ones given to us do allow the game to be slowed down a LOT. I'm currently doing a lot of testing to see what combo of sliders can get this game more realistic. NHL 24 has been my favorite game since NHL 19, and is the first game since NHL 21 that I actually haven't gotten frustrated with the testing / haven't dropped the game before the turn of the new year.
