@RSall14 That was the part that had me ROLLING! If the developers did this on purpose it shows just how out of touch they are with the game.. the stick seeks out legs.. I really hope this wasn't intended..
@KidShowtime1867 I never had an issue with pokecheck.. I never stopped using it. Stick lift I completely stopped using. I've seen several people get a penalty while in perfect position. I've never seen anyone get sticklifted from behind? I would be fine getting a penalty for that. When I'm at the side of someone or in front of them I shouldn't be scared to use it..
The truth is the game just gives more and more tools for offense and gives less tools for defenders. Defenders have gotten DSS since I've started playing this game.. in that time we've given forwards LCPM, dekes off the boards, sliding deke, lacrosse goal, puck flip, Datsyuk deke, Kucherov, a truck move. Not to mention breaking the defense and goalies with X factors. Puck on a string creates its own deke, other x factors hurt goalie abilities.
@EA_Aljo As far as a game being broken.. I played Crash bandicoot when I was a little kid. I could make it to "stairway to heaven" and the game would always freeze. The game was broken. I still played it a ton, i would just do everything I could up until that point. Did people not have their franchises messed up and deemed unplayable? I dont play that mode but I remember seeing possts suggesting that. Presentation was something this game pushed as a reason to buy the game. It was removed.. in some ways I would say that constitutes as it being "broken." Now I won't go that far but the game has a lot of issues. It's not unplayable but it's certainly not often enjoyable. The last 3 games have been the same for the most part.. except now sticklifts just don't really work. I'd love to see you open up a practice mode and show us how often you can use it. I mean if this is truly intended to work this way, what are we even doing? The devs are hockey fans? They watch the game? How often are they seeing these penalties? What teams are they watching? I'm just trying to figure out how or why it's intended..
