Re: NHL 21 Patch Notes (1.01)

@EA_Blueberry 

Yeah of course the point of be a pro is to become a star. But shouldn’t we feel a sense of accomplishment? Shouldn’t we have to prove ourselves to become the star? 

why is 2-6 games supposedly enough to prove our worthiness to be drafted first overall? There’s no hard work to get drafted. I played 4 games as a defenseman and was far from spectacular and was still drafted first. That’s so boring. 

And the scrolling bar isn’t a good feature. It’s bad like the score clock showing who scored and got the assists. You’re trying to play while it is scrolling and showing the info. And if you miss the one second it shows, you can’t scroll back to see.

    @SkylerJames13 Sure, there should definitely be a sense of of accomplishment. I believe with the way the storyline is configured it has to ensure you are drafted higher. We'll relay this feedback to the team. I suppose you could always say the player was a top prospect in the world and despite some rough games, a team still took a shot on him as 1st overall.

    That makes for the most boring experience ever. Not being able to play a full season in juniors to prove your worth it just feels like a cheap cop out. 
    I don’t want to be picked first overall if I don’t deserve it. 

    and I don’t want the team to add me to the NHL roster after preseason if I don’t deserve it either. I should be sent down to the juniors/ahl. If they even existed in that game mode

    Can we get a response on why FIFA 21 focused on coop in HUT (added two new modes) while nhl21 removed all coop. Hockey is much more coop friendly and the team whiffed on this.

    Sadly no new vintage jerseys added in the new patch. I hope at least there are some additions to Create Team in terms of logos and jersey styles. I know those additions didn't make the patch notes last year, so will have to wait and see.

    Glad to see the new Sens jerseys. I just hope they also added the logo to Create Team.
