There just isn’t enough of a player base to allow same level match making in HUT at this time of year. Even guys who have been playing since launch are complaining that they keep finding top 10 players. Blame it on the console split, game un-popularity or whatever else, but it’s not going to be a fair or fun experience jumping into HUT online right now.
What is worse is we have constructive discussions giving feedback on game modes that need to bring back some features from previous games, although the offline community gets ignored. The player base would be more populated if people actually wanted to buy these games. Sadly nobody wants to waste their money on a product that doesn't even bother to make the game worth it. We had a console split issue before with NHL Legacy and NHL 16. Population was actually decent on all consoles then. Many of the EASHL members who would play OTP stopped playing after they removed it. Then forced these people to find a club to play on, which some couldn't and just gave up.
Like I used to play OTP/Drop-in daily for hours on end. Now it is just spending hours to find a game, which majority of the drop-in community dislike the casual wear, indoor arena, and no option to pick a different jersey. Most who play it, only go there to test builds, and leave. Then it is overpowered AI basically filling the game. Not everyone is able to play club...
I just don't understand why they can put other modes like the Juniors, Women's tournament and Roster sharing in, but can't put in the option in BAP to play a full junior season, be sent to the AHL or have the ability to play the prospects or all star games.
I just don't understand the reasonings behind taking content out? If it is money, where is the thousands of HUT pack money people spend go towards? We need better from this company. it isn't fair to us!
