Re: CHEL/EASHL shows players height and weight in Metric instead of Imperial

@ajspecialt474 

I'm not finding a setting within the game that will change this. Try logging in at www.origin.com. Go to your account settings and check what country is set here. Let me know what happens. Thanks!

    Please let me know what would be the next step from here.

    Thanks in advance.

    Have you checked the location settings on your Xbox account? Possibly it's not set to Canada? Unfortunately, I've never heard of this happening so I'm really not sure what would be causing this. Do you have any other games experiencing the same issue?

  • @EA_Aljo
    Hi. Yes i did check location and language settings on my Xbox too and it is set to Canada. I play quite a few EA games including sports games such as FIFA, Madden and UFC and there are no issues at all. Just NHL21! It was fine while playing on XBOX ONE X but as soon as i installed it on XBOX SERIES X, it changed from Metric to Imperial. The biggest giveaway of the change is that it only shows me the British flag for English at the start of the game and the rest are all European flags but no American or Canadian flag for English!

    I really don't know who else you could talk to. You could try contacting an advisor by messaging @EAHelp through Twitter or open a case with a live support advisor here: https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/new/. You can also go to facebook.com/eahelphub to get in touch with support. They may have other suggestions.

  • @EA_Aljo
    Thanks so much for the suggestions.

    Much appreciated. Ill let you know if they fix my problem.

    Thanks again and have an awesome day.

    @ajspecialt474 

    You're very welcome. Definitely let me know if you get this resolved. I'm very curious as to what is causing this. Thanks!

  • @EA_Aljo
    After chatting with EA Technical Support, They could not find a solution/fix to my issue and simply told me to report it here which i did! Not sure what else to say or do. I just hope that it doesn't happen to me when i get NHL22!

    @ajspecialt474 

    It's an odd one for sure. Since there are no other games with this issue, it seems like it should be a setting in NHL, but I just haven't been able to find one that causes this. Out of curiosity, what is the favorite team you've selected? Is it one in a European country by chance?

  • @EA_Aljo
    Yes, it is puzzling as to why this issue occurred!

    Favourite team selected are the Winnipeg Jets since i live in Winnipeg 🙂

    But again, i really dont think it would be connected to a favourite team. because in FIFA, my Favourite team is France (International) and PSG (Clubs)

    @ajspecialt474 

    It's just odd that NHL is the only game this is happening in so it makes sense it would be coming from the game. It's also only happening on your Series X so maybe there's a setting on your console causing it. Hopefully, we can find out. If I have anything else to suggest, I'll let you know.

  • @EA_Aljo

    Yes indeed, either game or console issue for sure, but i am leaning more towards an in-game issue than the console issue due to the fact that i have no issues on the otehr EA Sports games.

    Sounds good Aljo and hope to hear from you whenever you may have a solution to try.

    Thanks a ton again for your patience and help and hope you have an awesome day. Will stay in touch. Cheers.

    @ajspecialt474 

    Have you tried contacting Microsoft to see if they know of anything with your account that may affect this? Everyone I'm seeing and people I've talked to points to a console region issue.

  • @EA_Aljo
    To be honest, no i have not even thought about contacting Microsoft/Xbox technical support. But knowing them and speaking out of experience, they are always quick to pass the blame on to either the maker of the game or something else before they decide to help and admit that the issue might be from their end! But hey, no harm in trying. Great point Aljo. Thank you. Ill let you know and see what they say. thanks again.

    I have this problem too with NHL22. Every is set too UK English as that is where i am. I have been brought up on imperial measures and metric is alien to me. Currently using Xbox one.
