Re: Unbalanced X-Factors like Truculence are ruining the game

@KlariskraysNHL checking works with truculence, it doesn't a large part of the time without it, which is why most players play with truculence as their ability.

I could have a 95 body checking attribute, get the hit bubble and miss on 50% of my checks but if I have the minimum body checking (76 I think? Been a long time since I've played) and have truculence on I can make 95% of my hits proc an animation.

    My take on this "X Factor stuff", you know, just to keep it diplomatic, is complete fluff and enables not-so-good "gamers" to feel somewhat relevant. The hype train reeled in a certain demographic, and that's currently how this game is being played: very little skill, and exploit abusiveness. Also factor in that this game isn't where it should be, especially for the consumer cost, and you get an absolute travesty of a hockey video game.

    Ultimately, zero competition equals a poor quality product.
