3 years agoWe're not aware of a way to desync the game. Desyncs can occur due to connection related issues. If you have any steps on how to force a desync, send them to me in a private message so I can let the team know.

@EA_Aljo Tbh this was more of a problem in NHL 19-21. I don't know how they did it, but there were teams that nearly never lost games and when we were beating them late in the third the game wouldn't count at the end. It wouldn't give us xp or anything else. The only options would be to end game/ go back to menu. In 22 I didn't play much because I was deployed most of the year, and in 23 I've just not played because the game just feels worse and getting my friends to keep playing has just been more work than its worth. I honestly have no idea how it was done, I didn't plan to do it myself so never tried to find out how they did it. I only feel it was something they were doing because it would be a nearly undefeated team and we would be beating them (we are not super good, just a handful of friends and a couple guys I met on a deployment years ago) We had it happen in our favor once. Not sure if we did something on accident or it just randomly happened. Taking a timeout/ a bunch of penalties with less than a min left in game seemed to make it happen more often.

There was an issue a few years back, but that was resolved and we haven't been aware of a way to force disconnects since. If you hear of any ways to do this, please pass on the details. Otherwise, connection issues are normally the culprit.
- rsandersr473 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_Aljo Yeah If I start playing again and see anything suspicious I'll rout it up.
If training camp is ever brought back I would suggest giving players the option to play with a RH and a LH player. Before you used Crosby but if my friend wanted to play as a RH I would have to go to practice to show them the differences. Living in small town Ohio hockey was NOT popular. So teaching them about forehand and backhand shots and diff stuff took time. That being said I would also add some videos on even the most basic things like that for people who don't know the first thing about hockey. I think the training camp mode did do a good job, and having video recommendations built into modes like BAP helped me when I first started playing. - EA_Aljo3 years ago

Thanks for the feedback on this. Hopefully, we'll see the training camp return in the future. I was kinda surprised at how many requests we got for it.
