NHL 24 Feedback
To date, I can genuinely say NHL 24 is the WORST hockey game ever made.
- $90 to $130 for an unfinished game. - Bugs that essentially break the game where it’s un-playable.
- Glitch goa...
You are 100% correct man. I play online vs every night and this is the worst release in 15 years i swear. I buy the new release every year. Everything you stated is accurate. The glitch goals you speak of are more than 75% of the goals and I blame this ridiculous pressure system that makes the ai go bananas and you can expect a goal coming guaranteed. They stupified all of the more difficult moves. You can't protect the puck or drive the net. You can't skate backwards sometimes or its delayed and its too late. You can't do a proper wraparound anymore. You can't saucer the puck over anything. You can't dump the puck down the ice The action tracker replays after the game are more glitched out than ever. The replays are still terrible. Just so disappointed. Take it from a guy who plays about 900 online vs games a year. This version is awful. Last year it was stick lift penalties every time. Xfactor is useless. Now they have made the ai take over the game with low skilled players with seeing eye "pressure system" fluke goals lol.
I am in agreement with you on this and also a longtime player through the years. I would add the controls being frustrating as I can't use skill stick without a glaringly big hitting disadvantage, and I can't use the new layout without a huge deking disadvantage (pressing down on the joystick messing up my breakaway). There is no comfort zone and it took a long time for me to learn skill stick. The bugs aren't as many but last a lot longer with no updates (I currently can't buy anything in auctions due to a bug for three days). I have 2 different "cases" in for the same problem with 2 different ea help providers, neither of which are even close to knowing anything about the game. When they ask a simple question such as your email, you wait 5 minutes after your response for another question (took 40 minutes to get to 5 questions). The game is now unplayable to me so I'm finally quitting this waste of a time.
I actually really love this game now. The pressure system has been improved, the hip checks and Michigan are too easy and they still haven't fixed the action tracker replays, but the physics of the game itself are improved as always. I've adjusted. Its strange to me that most one trick ponies are still not using these moves when they are so simple now but whatever. I use everything so after I got used to total control it's been great.
This game is insane. This match tells everyone about this game. This guy didnt do anything. There are all his 4 goals. Also he puckragge... Or someone explain me, how can this happen. i also attach whole video of the game who is interest, how this game is absolutly not about skill, but sometimes its already decided in lobby. Or give me constructive feedback on this...

I also add whole game replay. I know i could do much things better, but point is, that opponent, doesnt need to do anything for the goal and from 5 shots 4 goals..?

Hey, @sirajs
For the first clip, it looks like you could have safely poked that away.
The second clip looks like an unfortunate turnover. That's going to be a tough one to stop with the positioning of your players. You skated the RD too far to the left making it difficult to get back in time to defend this.
In the 3rd clip, it looks like you would have had time to switch to the RD and defend this. It would probably be close though since you'd have to make the switch quickly from the RW and then slide left.
For the 4th clip, dropping to a knee could have blocked this. You can't stand there and expect to intercept the pass. Defense needs to be played more actively than passive.
