Fixed "Nerfed" Deflections in NHL 22
Well this train wreck of a release this year has forced me to try and revive NHL 22. My biggest issue with that game was the "nerfing" of deflections to pander to the online cross crease glitch goal...

MLB The Show is a awesome game. NBA 2K is a awesome game. Hell NHL 2K was a awesome series. Seems if you want an good sports game and if EA owns the rights your pretty much screwed at this point. They have not made a good sports game since MVP Baseball. With their resources that is pretty friggin sad.
I guess we need to wait until a group of people decide to remaster and update NHL 2K5 til we get a realistic hockey game again. I give up on EA. They dont care about their customers. Just micro transactions.
Cant Blame me EA. Been playing since NHL 1991 on the Sega Genisis. Ive tried to give you many chances. I was rewarded with broken games, features removed after launch and flagrant false advertising. Fool me once, shame on you. Trick me 10 times then shame on me. You wont see another cent from me ever.
IMO, NHL 22 launch was the best gameplay the franchise ever had.
I went from not planning on upgrading from 21 to paying $69 on launch just from playing the 10-hr trial alone! With a couple more balancing patches— it could've set the base for a console generation of great gameplay.
Instead, EA reverted the tuner to NHL 20 because "the community complained" even though it was the only month I've ever seen the entire online community agree on EANHL doing something positive. I'd love for an EA employee to tell me what community they listened to that begged making their simulation hockey game to arcade settings.
- @RatedxPGxEnigma Fully agree.

Yep. Then for NHL 23 they didn't touch anything (that needed to be touched because the game was outright broken) because people complained they broke NHL 22 from what was a great game.
Just a comedy of decisions.
