Strategies in NHL 23
Are they going to fix strategies in the game so we can go back and edited them like we did in previous games? (picture I’ve provided.)
Forum Discussion
@EA_Aljo is there any update on the fixing of this? Without your coaches strategies you cant sign legit free agents, and drafting is useless, because you cannot build around a player, by changing your coach.
@Bahamuta Really hoping for an answer for this
They already gave an answer. Go to the first page of the thread. According to devs the removed the ability to change strategies in franchise. It is by design and not a mistake, and it is not likely to change
Yeah BUT THATS JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH
This is a joke, it absolutely makes no sense that I can adjust the strategy prio to the and in the game but not in the main menu. And that I can adjust roster and everything, but not the strategy.
I really hope EA will fix this and make strategies saveable, if not this - after buying the game each year since the late 90s - will be the last version I have bought.@Andochiefs I never said it was a good answer. I was just letting him know that if he is waiting on AN answer, he won’t be getting one
- @Caliboy6262_714 We are referring to the fix they put out. Because even hiring and firing of coaches doesn't change the strategy. That is the issue we are referring to now. It was supposedly fixed lat patch.
- @Caliboy6262_714 Yes mostly referring to the fact that they have said they fixed it but actually made it worse and broke more things. That’s usually what happens with EA anyways, break more things than they fix
I was the first person to post that it wasn’t fixed from the patch in this thread (you guys can go back and look). I am well aware the patch didn’t fix it and was the first person here to point it out.
@EA_Aljo said it was fixed, and that they weren’t able to replicate the issue. Myself, as well as several other users pointed out that it in fact was not fixed and his response to this was to tell us to take a screen capture showing proof of what we were stating.
I don’t have the energy nor the motivation to go through all of that to prove something that myself and other users knows is broken for a fact, when the community manager wants to keep telling us they fixed it.
If you guys would like to take screen captures of you hiring and firing coaches and the strategies not updating then be my guest.
But outside of that my point still stands. If you’re waiting for a different answer you are not going to get one. The community manager doesn’t believe us and claims it was fixed
- @Bahamuta Even then the main post is to give us back editing strategies like we use too. I couldn’t care about the hiring coaches thing. If we could edit like we did. None of this matters.
But I get you they said patch fox and well broke more. I guess like the other patches. I’m getting black screen a lot more more and sync screen alot too This is actually the same thing we have been discussing for two years about editing players. They decided to remove it, we have had countless discussions on why we wanted it back and it still hasn’t returned, so I know I have written off this being changed back as well.
For what it’s worth @Caliboy6262_714 ,There was a video submitted in this discussion shortly after it was requested. It is on page 12.
Roger that! Didn’t see it. Thanks for the heads up
@EA_Aljo Suggestion: Maybe having an option to turn this on or off could be a solution, similar to the head coach adjusting lineups and alternating goalies..."Head coach sets strategies", on or off.
- @Zodus_Nehamiah It would definitely help to slightly fix this awful game. Everything in it is broken. I don’t get why having the option for customization is bad? Why force us to play a certain way by locking everything, when everything is broken and doesn’t work right?
So here’s a question now. Because I don’t think it does at all. So when in game and you do adjustment to strats via d pad. Doesn’t it even change a thing ?
Is the glitch still there where the strategies don't change when a new coach is hired? Or has a second patch come in and fixed it?
If that has been fixed I could live with it. But I think I will second the suggestion above that coach's can be allowed to adjust strategies by toggling it on like coaches can edit lines. We should be allowed to edit our strategies at will.
