Does anyone at EA have specific information on the updates to creation zone? There are constantly requests
for new custom logos, Historic team logos, and access to all in game logos including AHL teams.
What about the ability to upload our own logos?
Will we be able to update team jerseys in the offseason for all teams, not just created ones? Any updates before
the game is released would be nice.
@EA_AljoThanks for the replies.
I think there's a big divide in the NHL gaming community between Online vs Offline players.
@KlariskraysNHLThat definitely was the peak era. I do wonder if eventually some of these niche sports titles like NHL just become online games instead of on game consoles.
I think many gamers from that era are also realizing that itll never be like that again anytime in the near future. Sports games will probably continue to just cater to the online community. Many of us that are late 30s or older are having to just deepen our own rosters for which ever NHL game you put the work into and just continue from there.
@EA_AljoI think getting the Offline and Alumni going should be the next step.
NHL has got their online stuff on point, have now included the women's rosters aswell. Whata next to include? The Alumni and the offline mode.
Give those 2 things alot more attention among with the create a player and create a team and then we got a great game..
One thing I don't like is when Alumni players that are more known don't have their real or similar looking faces and likeness. Actually a real pet peeve.
I hope that for future titles we can fix these improve these issues.
NHL is making baby steps to improve into a game for everyone to enjoy. Taking care of these things for a 23 patch or even start new for NHL 24 with the focus and well all be singing its praises.
I want more create a team logo and jersey options. Also can we get the Atlanta Thrashers logo and color scheme?
@Phaissnlife2Russ Courtnall is in the game. Have you joined our NHL Discord group?

@olavi4 I agree with you 100 per cent and like you very disappointed that EA NHL series doesn't care about loosing customers! I am in business it must be nice to have to much revenue coming in EA?
That's really not the case. We absolutely care. We try to get as much community feedback in the game as possible. Unfortunately, we can't add every request with every release, but the game will continue to grow over time.

That is not a reasonable take on the situation. This is a quick 10 minute change being requested, it has no negative effects on anyone, and people here are stating that the one place that it could affect anyone other than the person utilizing it - ONLINE - it is already available. This seems to be the takeaway by EA over the years, but it is patronizing - it is stating that EA could provide something in demand, easily, but knows better than the consumer and so will deny it. This would make sense if there was the potential for real world harm - if they demand the actual NHL have helmetless players there is a good reason to deny the customer because real people can get severely hurt and die. However, there is no rational reason to believe this would translate into real world harm since it is virtual and we do not know these virtual players to be sentient nor alive.
The sensible thing is to make all players default to having a helmet, but allow the user to remove them. If horribly desired, EA can go above and beyond and increase the potential injuries to the helmetless players, both in frequency and severity, though no one is asking for that.
