Changes for NHL 24/25
Battle Pass
- Unified Battle Pass: Merge the World of CHEL and HUT(non existing) Battle Passes into a single system. Avoid introducing separate Battle Passes for these modes, as it could lead to insane amount of grinding. Would love to increase my battle pass level playing HUT as that is my main mode.
- Payment with NHL Points: Make the Season 2 and beyond Battle Passes available for purchase using in game NHL points. For example, consider a cost of 1000 NHL points as an alternative to direct currency from console stores.
World of CHEL
- Penalty Limits in CLUBS Games: Remove the maximum penalty limit before kicking a player from CLUBS games. However, keep this limit for Drop-in games to preserve fairness.
- Customization for Home and Away: Provide an option to apply home customizations for away and alternate uniforms without having to edit each "class" individually for gloves, skates, name, and other attributes.
HUT (Hockey Ultimate Team)
- HUT Moments Enhancements:
- Adjustable Period Lengths: Introduce the ability to change the period lengths within HUT Moments challenges. Some challenges have varying real time durations, and some players need flexibility to complete these challenges.
- Keep Coins for Completed Games: If a game in HUT Moments is completed, even if the user didn't achieve all three stars, ensure that the player still receives the coins for completing the game when selecting retry moment.
- Cross-Platform Support:
- 1v1 Challenges with EA Friends: Enable players to challenge their EA friends to 1v1 matches using HUT teams, regardless of their gaming platform using "Play a Friend".
- Invite Friends for HUT Moments Challenges: Implement a feature that allows players to invite their friends to help with HUT Moments challenges, promoting a collaborative experience. Right now you can only invite friends on the same console.
