I’m referring to offline “Play Now” mode

for this reply;

The game speed slider is IMO one of the main problems with the game. I believe it is the cause of the “game speed glitch”. If you aren’t familiar with this glitch, it is a glitch found in offline modes. It’s very evident in Play Now mode. The glitch surfaced around 2015. So for years I’ve been desperately trying to find ways to mitigate it. I only use Play Now, and Playoff Mode. I’ve noticed that’s it’s not as noticeable in Playoff Mode. For years I used game speed 3 as my default. The game speed glitch is so random and there is no pattern. So for example I’d start playing a game and I could immediately notice if the game speed glitch was active, because game speed all of a sudden feels like it’s on 6/6, super fast and very much arcade feel. Id go to slider settings to reconfirm I’m still on 3/6. To get the game speed back to 3/6 I’d have to now set it on 0/6. Then randomly I’d play another game with slider still on 0/6 and the game is slow as a turtle (as it should be on 0/6) so I’d up it to 3/6 and it would play as intended. This constant battle back and forth went on for years. I skipped NHL 22. Played NHL 21. I purchased NHL 23 hoping the game speed glitch would be gone with the Frost Bite engine. I was very disappointed to see the same old glitch still there. So this is now how I try and mitigate the glitch. In Play Now mode I keep the game speed slider on 0/6. My default skating acceleration and speed is usually around 40/40. When the game speed glitch is active I turn skating speed and acceleration to 30/30. I find by keeping the game speed slider on 0/6 in Play Now mode it helps keep the glitch at bay but it’s not 100%. My goal is to try and achieve a 100% NHL simulation.

I tried game speed at 6/6 with skating speed/acceleration on 30/30 and IMO the player animations were WAY to fast making it feel like an arcade hockey game. 

@Tier1SOFOperator30/30 is too much. try 29/29 as in my description. it is a huge different.

Yes I know this glitch. It was first. Nhl23 is the first hockey without this glitch on my ps4. Only if 29/29 + speed 6 is instaled.

Attribute Effects: 1/10 

if you change anything from 1 side description the gane is unstable. for example if you change penalties somehow it can be laser show. 

Yes the problem is in hand of programmers. I had only lucky day with this combination of sliders. it works over 100 matches now. no glitch, no acceleration, no cpu cheat.
