Can we disable cross play somehow?

Its just unfun playing vs playstation teams.  They get a super advantage on the ice and are so hard to poke, skate so much faster than everyone etc.   Its super boring. 


Let us disable the cross play like other games do. 

I rather wait an extra minute than play a team that is given an unfair advantage.  Just not fun. 

EASHL

I can tell immediately when paired vs them just by how the play unfolds.  I just confirm by looking at recent players and them not showing up.   Never been wrong once. 

  • Hey, @kezz123 

    I'll keep an eye out for differences. I play on Xbox as well and haven't noticed what you're mentioning. Are you on Series X or Xbox One? As far as turning off crossplay goes, this can be done in the settings in EASHL under Accessibility.

    I kinda understand what you guys are saying about the level of competitiveness of online vs playing by yourself. But to me, it’s the level of customization you can have offline vs on that seals the deal big time… I get to choose the way I want to play and no rare moment of rush of beating a guy online, with all the aggravation that comes with it, is ever gonna beat that…

    And I get to break less controllers this way 😉😆

    Now back to the topic, is it possible that people playing with (Gaming mode) on their TV could have an impact ? Less input lag, less latency… Maybe something to think about 🤔

    Chasing the dragon.

    I can relate, also what Aljo said about "online play offers a totally different level of competition".

    Thoose two in combination was enough for me to get back for some more.

    But damn its hard to know when enough is enough.

    Yes. We always recommend enabling game mode. That can cut down significantly on input lag.

    On PS5 at least, I don't notice any difference between using Game mode and Sport mode. Mind you, my current 4k TV is more on the bargain side of things... will be easy enough to test once in I bring in big boy LG C2. Generally speaking though, yes, Game mode is what we should all be playing.

    Your displayed connection could be wrong as well - Been a problem with NHL for years and I doubt it will ever get fixed. Just the other day my screen said HIGH population (no, seriously, it's real) with an average search of about 35 seconds. My buddy on the other hand said his should Low population and an average search of 1 minute+

    @TTZ_Dipsy Yeah there is a bunch of stuff to factor in when gaming. TV Latency, Console/Controller Latency, your internet route to the servers. For the most part my only downfall is living in Florida. Wish they would add a Georgia server since you know the hot beds of hockey are taking over the NHL.

    @EA_Aljo FYI - Disabled cross-play, still get paired vs Playstation players.....so another thing to add to the list of things that dont work.

    Still can tell when we play PS players each time without looking just how suddenly im not allowed to poke anymore amongst other things.

    man this game is just so frustrating.

    Can you get me some video of both of these issues? I played PS teams the other night on Xbox One and had no problem poking them.
