Problems with the DEL and maybe other european Leagues?
Hi,
until now, I never wrote anything here. And I thought this would still be the case in the Future. But this years Game is in a state, where I have to write something.
I’ve played the NHL Games since I was a child and started with NHL 2002.
I think it was the first game in the series as well, where you could have played european Leagues and I loved it. First letdown of the series for me was, as for many players, the cut of the PC Version of the Game. Somehow I arranged myself with it.
The second letdown was, that they pulled out „Dynasty Mode“, which I still don‘t understand why. The PS2 Version already had it and it was the possibillity to play european leagues over multiple years with transfers and so on. I mein, isn’t a thing like this Mode just a coding thing. Besides they already did it and had it in the Game.
Coming to this years game, I don‘t know where to Start to be honest. Besides the whole Presentation and condensed mode, which also for me, is the biggest mistake in this years game, I discovered more.
1) After the DEL Jersey Updates, the crowd also recieved the new jerseys in priveous titles. Not this Time, they still wear the NHL 22 Jerseys.
2) DEL Overtimes are played 3 vs 3 since years. For any reason, they don‘t change it. It is always 4 vs 4 and I think you can‘t edit it yourself to 3 vs 3 in Regular Season.
3) I finished a DEL season in „Season Mode“. At least they got the Playoff shedules right over the last Games. Not this Time, now the Pre-Palyoffs are „Best of Seven“ instead of „Best of Three“ Series. This was right in previous titles, why is it suddenly wrong now?
Somewhere I‘ve read that the devs love the Game of hockey themselves. But bugs or mistakes like that above makes the game automatically „lazy looking“.
Thanks,
Leon
