Re: Passing Sometimes Doesn’t Work

@bruanor09 

Which control scheme are you using? Skill stick, Hybrid or NHL 94?

Are you both on PlayStation? I tried the controls @bruanor09 mentioned and was able to pass when using both examples. It would be good to hear from others on PlayStation that are experiencing the same issue.

@Kohawk11 It's also possible this is connection related. Are you wired or wireless? Did this just start happening or has it been going on since the release of NHL 23?

I’ve recently had to switch over from my previous controller to this one. I have used the controller both wired and unwired. I’ve factory reset the controller. I’ve deleted and reinstalled NHL 23. It only appears to be in game in NHL. I played Battlefield and the R2 button was working fine. When I use defensive switch, the only way I’m able to switch players is by holding R2 and using the joystick direction. Did the video I shared upload? Because that shows like 100% the weirdest situation I’ve ever had in a system. 

@Kohawk11 

The video didn't upload. It's always best to put them up on a site like YouTube and link them here.

Try deleting the personal saved data for NHL 23. It's possible you could lose any offline saves and changes to settings. Normally, those will download from the cloud, but I can't guarantee that will happen. Go to Settings/Storage/System. Locate NHL 23 and delete the saved data. Let me know if that helps or not.

here’s the video. And no this issue wasn’t fixed with deleting saved data. R2 still works only in menu. 

@Kohawk11 

Thanks for the video. Can you check the controls and make sure they are set to Skill Stick? Also, make sure the firmware is up to date for your controller. Those instructions can be found here.

Can confirm weird instances of my player not being able to pass properly from time to time - usually this is after I've been absolutely decimated by a huge hit and/or I've attempted a check/poke around someone and my arm completely breaks.

We usually fire it down for an icing or intentionally take an offside for things to 'reset'

tested on 2 gamepads
in other games works.

moreover, in some cases, the pass works.
in most cases, this is exactly what happens

it's the same with switching players. there is no switching when the keys are pressed at the same time. for example X+R2, R1+R2, R3+R2, triangle+R2,

@bruanor09 

I think passing using those button combinations is going to be pretty uncommon. However, we also are getting very few reports of this. In other cases, it was an issue with the controller so it would be good to try a new one just to be sure.

I have now done the following to try and remedy this situation with nothing working:

Reset controller 

Deleted and reinstalled NHL 23

Deleted Saved data for NHL 23

Plugged in Controller 

Changed all controller settings 

Replaced spring in R2 trigger

Still the same issue. With the haptic response I feel the vibration as if I’m charging up a pass, but when released nothing. Even quick taps do nothing. 

@Kohawk11 

You said another controller works so I think this is related to the controller and not the game.

Try turning off the Haptic Feedback in the PS5 settings.  I know when I had a specialty controller on Xbox my passing was messed up because of the triggers not going down all the way and such.

I use my PS5 to play the PS4 version which doesn't use any special trigger effects and still have issues
