hybrid controls issues?

@EA_Aljo Honestly team needs to check out Hybrid controls. Maybe because it was released later but poke checking with hybrid is broken. Skill stick and total control is the same thing but the minute you switch to hybrid it's like they don't register or something. I had to switch to total control because it's such a huge disadvantage. Hopefully it's something fixable. 

The best way I can explain it when looking at replays and switching between the 2 in periods is skill stick and total control sorta have this assist to it or lock on but Hybrid doesn't.

@EA_Aljo   Thank you for not answering on my posts. This game became each day just bigger and bigger garbage.

Interference penalty are with us each game in average 5 times per game!!!!!! The stronger the opponent is, the more interference penalties I am getting. Nice job. 

And I repeat, I do nothing to get that penalty. It is happening right after face-off. The best is when I score a goal and immediately after face-off I get the interference penalty.

If I got under the pressure, almost always I got interference penalty. Oh wait, that's not me.. that my team mates controlled by AI. I guess something is wrong. Reaaaaallly wrong.

Why the [REMOVED] this is not happening to AI opponents????? Why it is not happening to real players who are using total controls or skill stick????

This was not happening in older games. Why you have add it into this year game????

Can you please tell me if you guys are at least working on it? Or is this the new feature which should increase the sale of next year version?

We're aware of the issues with interference penalties. This is being investigated. Thanks for the feedback.

@EA_Aljo And what about the mismatch of “Slovenia” written on the board at the beggining of the game while the flag of SLOVAKIA is on the ice? Please read my first post. There was much more I was interested in, like those unreal numbers of hits. Thank you. 

@petino1212 

That's an issue we're aware of. I reported it to the team awhile back. I don't have any updates on it.

We made changes to the hitting to reduce their effectiveness, but the community was very unhappy so it was reverted. It's possible this could be better balanced in the future.

It is almost impossible to try shoot those loose pucks in to the net if you are front of the goal because 9/10 times your player decides to hit opponent rather than shoot that loose puck in to the net. Our EASHL team has decided that my place is at front of the net trying deflections and rebounds but the BIG problem is that what i said before. What you need to do that your player doesn't hit opponent when you try to shoot those loose pucks? And i am using hybrid controls and everybody has said to me that pressing and holding L2 button it doesn't hit the opponent. Well it does not help so is there really anything to do? 

This is something i didn't notice in NHL 23 so it has to be new thing because i do not remember even one interference penalty when i was trying to shoot those loose pucks in to the net.

I hope someone understanded what i meant. (From Finland so my English ain't so good 😅)

But i hope we get this thing fixed ASAP.

Hey, @CLX90 

Holding L2 does not help in this case. That is for defenders in front of their own net. I really hope this gets addressed. It's incredibly frustrating.

Really? That seems kind of odd. Why would defenders want to mute their hitting in favor of shooting in front of their own net? 

@KidShowtime1867 

Actually, I need to clarify. I was a little wrong. Holding L2 doesn't help with that currently. This is from the 1.4.0 patch notes:

Community Feedback:  Recent changes increased the chance of getting called for a penalty when Push Checking in front of the net. Defensemen want a way to clear the net, allowing for better defending in close proximity to the crease to prevent screens/deflections/tap ins.

The defending team can push check and knock down their opponent within [20ft] of the net with reduced risk of drawing an interference penalty.

However, multiple push checks within a short time frame, regardless of distance to net, can result in Cross Check penalty.

Apologies for the misinformation from me. That's what I was talking about.

We're absolutely aware of the interference penalties when attempting to shoot loose pucks in front of the net. Holding L2/LT in previous games negated this. Unfortunately, that's not the case currently. I would love to see this return.
