If you had one wish..
What would that be? You had the chance to change one of the core gameplay mechanics. Revamp the whole system of.. Skating? Shooting + 1 timers? Hitting + body physics ? Passes? Deking? ...
Everything needs fixing but, as a 2-3 man club player, I say the AI and Goalies - They are absolute garbage.
6's teams say they are OP but I'd wager it's because they are given the freedom to stick to their respective zones with dedicated builds - I personally find 6's to be a "too many cooks in the kitchen" type of affair and humans tend to play worse due to all the voices trying to talk over one another so the AI can feel like it's playing god-like (just my opinion). Regardless, AI top to bottom needs updating - With the effects trickling into every single mode, it's a no-brainer the team should make it a priority.
More servers.
if I had two wishes, patch the fast wrap.
Fix the god mode goalies - doesn’t matter what level your team is - the goalies regardless of rating are Vezina trophy candidates.
all the pretty passing plays and one timers are gone….now it’s garbage goals and wrap arounds. Completely zero fun factor for the regular player.
basucally why I stopped playing…terrible enjoyment factor. Garbage game.
I wouldn't be wasting my one wish on this forum or with any EA game that's for sure.
I wish this game made the year-to-year improvements we saw in the 90's and early 00's. There's no passion from this development team anymore. It's all HUT focused and a constant drumbeat of "what feature can we market to get new players" rather than "what aspect of the sport can we absolutely nail in a videogame".
