- @jerseytide I don’t think they’re gonna be addressing the offline game modes for nhl 25. They said it’s within the next three years, or a three year plan.
So most likely 25&26 will be “planning” and 27 will be a release with a “revamped” offline game modes (which will just be the modes stripped down to bones) like they did with BAP a few years ago.
At this point I think they know they’ve lost the majority of the offline players - Bahamuta3 years agoRising Ace
@EA_Aljo have they confirmed the added replays are for goals only? I would love to see if it can be done for big saves as well.
@Bahamuta 1st thing should answer your question

@EA_AljoLike others, I appreciate the honest and upfront answers regarding full presentation not being in this year. So thank you for that. That said, it means I'm skipping another year and likely won't return until some serious work is done to offline modes to make them more immersive again. Showing the teams entering the ice out of the tunnels (and through props if used Vegas/San Jose etc) should be included, 3 stars at the end of the game should be included, tunnel walks at the end of the periods/game should be included, etc. Little things like this go a long way for offline modes. Additionally, that flex cam is terrible (in my opinion) and there should be an option to turn it off. Lastly, is it an xbox/ps issue that is preventing custom music from returning? That took immersion to another level when we had that option! It should come back if possible.
- @Strictly60s Licensing is most likely why we don't have custom music. Roblox had to remove so much audio due to copyright stuff. Some have made a great idea of having a deal where you could implement Spotify if you had a subscription to them. But the days of putting your own music in are over.
- Strictly60s3 years agoSeasoned Vanguard@KlariskraysNHL Legitimate question, if this is the case (which seems likely), why wasn't it a licensing issue back when it was an option? If I own the song and have it cut down to 30 second clips or whatever, why can't I upload it to my system for use in game? I guess I'm just curious as to what has changed between then and now as copyright was a thing back when we had this option implemented.
@Strictly60sWell the music industry has cracked down on so much stuff because artists want paid for their music being used. Roblox not too long ago had to rip out a ton of audio because of copyright problems. Overall all the industries just want more slice of the pie these days.

adding on to what @coolspot777 said, something like NHL 15 (understand the real video in the booth isn't possible without a ton of resource allocation) but the players skating around and stats present would give it a much more realistic feel. Starting from the locker room would be an even bigger plus.

What's so difficult about bringing the full presentation back into the game? As an option, it simply brings it back and everyone is happy

@jdangles23I watched your link and yeah it’s ridiculous how we went from a true broadcast experience to how nhl 23 was… @EA_Aljo please let the devs know that full presentation should be the focus for nhl 25. Some of us old school players feel it needs to be brought back. Full presentation not being in these games makes it feel rushed and dull and I know that is the idea but I want to see more of the intro and the hard work on the ice projections only to see them for like 5 seconds… please tell them to try to get a deal with ESPN or tnt because that is where nhl is going to be especially tnt they just signed like a three year deal with them so… would love to hear Kenny Albert and John forslund replace James… also actually having a intermission report would be a nice change… please do what you need to do so they can get it going for next year.
