Isn't it kind of insulting to the NHL and the sport of hockey

That EA thinks in order to people to be entertained playing a hockey game it has to be a complete exaggeration of the sport? The game is full of hip checks and Michigan goals, is all offense and no ...

@NeonSkyline21 Probably dumb question, but I've never played OVP in my life. What "teams" do you use? Meaning, are you putting your own team together like using HUT cards?

@Jammalammalam Ew of course not lol. I would never play a pay to win mode like HUT.

In online versus you just use NHL teams lol it's that simple. It's good old, old-fashioned, 1v1 "pick your favorite team" video game hockey. IMO it's the most pure way to play EA NHL but I know I'm in the minority. I don't really need customization and whatnot I just want to test my skill against another human's skill.

    @NeonSkyline21 LMAO. You and me both. I'm really hoping EA doesn't make WoC Pay To Win by making the decision to lock really good special builds behind a paywall. In either case, OVP sounds like a base stat mode that plays into my hope that one day EA scraps the COD-like skill perks and just gives players a pool of points to put in the base attributes and that's it. That would be a great push towards more sim and less arcade. 🙂 Might give Versus a try tomorrow.
