WOC Player Development
This could actually fix a lot of problems.. hear me out! I think our players should be able to be upgraded throughout the year and it should be done similar to 2k where you can play your career or m...

As someone who has played a fair bit of 2k's carrer-mode and park mode over the past few years, let me make one thing abundantly clear:
WE DON'T WANT MULTIPLE GAMES HAPPENING IN A SINGLE INSTANCED SERVER LIKE NBA 2K'S PARK GAMES. THAT STUFF SUCKS.
It makes the game so incredibly laggy. Please just stick to the dedicated, one server for one game method. Seeing other games happening around you as you traverse a city is cool "in theory" but it's not cool in actuality. Actually, the whole "open-world city" thing is something that is cool in theory but is actually just a headache. I remember last year's 2k didn't even have FAST TRAVEL so you had to run/skateboard around the city with the terrible controls... even when playing offline games only...
Yeah the randomized loot-boxes in WoC are so ugly. I though we've moved past that as a strategy and isn't there a much better way to monetize the game-mode anyway? Just make "outfits" and sell them for currency in an actual in-game-mode shop like CoD does. On top of that, award players points after each game that they can alternatively use to unlock the EXACT SKINS THEY WANT. A la Rainbow Six Siege or what have you.
That's fair, and I wouldn't need that. I'm just saying how deep that game is. If NHL did something like this it would be nice if it was a much smaller city.. and it would be nice to be able to walk into a building and scout drop in games.. like you couldn't walk around the rink or anything but you could watch/ change the camera. I can see that not bugging down the servers especially if viewers had to wait to view when there is a stoppage.
