Why do you guys give the AI in All-Star and Superstar difficulty unrealistic stats? Like you give players stats in HUT for a reason, but the second I want a competitive game in offline squad battles ...
Hey there, @SNIDES
Can you get some video showing slower players outskating faster ones? It'll be reviewed for any issues.
As far as the difficulty goes, the player ratings don't change. The AI players react faster on higher difficulties though. This can make them very challenging on All-Star and Superstar, but that's intended. Getting to know how the AI plays will help. For one, if you like to play a hitting-heavy game, try to play less aggressive. They are excellent about finding open lanes for shots and passes. Cutting off those options will make a big difference. I like to use the contain puck strategy for this reason. I'll only go for hits if I know I have teammates behind me to back me up because that player is now taken out of the play. The computer can be deadly when they have numbers. So, if they get set up in your zone and start cycling the puck, don't chase the carrier. Try to cut off their options and they'll eventually turn it over or go for a shot that your goalie can cover and force a stoppage.
