I don't think it matter offline or online. It just doesnt look good to have a huge timer/pressure system in the middle of the zone stamped on the ice whether you are online or not.
They could have easily and simply add a thin growing bar by our energy bar or by the scoreboard. Something minimalist instead of something like this.
Well... This is EA what we are talking about here and EA said that they barely haven't touched to offline this year so i believe these kind of things are made mostly for true arcade online players...
You never know and maybe i am completely wrong about this but it wouldn't be first time in my life ๐๐
But one thing is 100% sure... We need to have option to take these kind of things away from the screen because those are really bothering... Really hoping that someone could come here and say that is there on/off option for that. ๐ฌ๐ค
The easy answer would be If it was an option to choose yes or no, EA (Aljo) would have told us right away.
And not wait 7 pages in before letting us know.
So im guessing we for the moment are stuck with this 'error' but im thinking EA are investigating the possibility to change this.
I dont think they believed the reaction would be so big on this one.
But im glad I share this concern with many more.
And I dont even know yet if I am going to buy the game... But I still do care about the game, cant help it! ๐โค๏ธ
And if we're lucky (again) they will do something about this, as they did with the Hybrid Control, fingers crossed!
Because they proved it, they can actually listen to us ๐
@Margera09
Yeah EA dosent know what they did by listening to us, they created a monster, we will never take no for an answer again!
๐๐น
Exactly! They've opened the box of the pandora. For us it's a good thing and for them, well, probably not so good as they have more work then ๐

I've always been excited by every years release but I'm so annoyed by so many of the changes for 24. I do care a lot too, that's why, for the first time, I'm whining so much about the game.
I'm still getting it anyway, I've never skip a single year ๐
But I'm pessimistic.
I remember the creator of 2k hockey. still unsurpassed gameplay and still unsurpassed atmosphere with the most nhl elements.
EA keeps making the same mistake: they create new elements that have nothing to do with nhl. in addition, he adds violent elements to the game that are seemingly related to the game, but are so exaggerated that they look ridiculous. why do i look funny mainly because I can't turn it off.
2k creators also created a lot of crap that didn't work in the end. but they could always be turned off!!!
this is the biggest difference between game companies that are popular and those that are inflated.
EA has inflated a bubble that will never burst. a lot of great things, but also a lot of nonsense, which, moreover, cannot be eliminated in any way and all the toys are just lies.
This is a huge risk they take not having the option to turn it off not sure people want to se this in EVERY game they play but i se the way this game is taking with less presenation/shorter intros and more arcade gimmick things on the ice we must look at.PLEASE gick us a god damn choice here!
First when i heard that hybrid controls aren't in the game that was no buy for me and when EA said that they will bring hybrid controls back i desided that i will buy the game but if this is true that you cannot take that stupid meter thing off the screen... It is again no buy for me! So here we go again when EA should listen their customers and bring the choise to choose that do you want to use that meter thing or not and i thing there is so many players that do not like that meter thing at your screen when you try to play your game!
So give us ON/OFF option PLEASE for things like this!
The question is : who is owner of EA now? AI or real peoples...
Copy paste is not so hard skill for AI at this time I think
It is 99 against 1 stupid now , we still do not know who is winner ๐)))
Yes is is so incredible stupid not to have an option to turn it OFF.The red boards should be enough put the meter on the ice AWAY.i have read so many who do not like the meter so act on it now EA.
Yeah if we can't disable this pressure meter I'm not buying the game, simple as that. I don't care how good the gameplay is or any other stuff they add. That pressure meter is a total dealbreaker. It's just unbelievable that anyone at EA thought it was a good idea. Probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in a sports video game.
Gotta love how they put effort into the boards turning bold red/ making a giant red meter in the middle of the zone that you cant hide, but no changes like seeing the shot total for each team on the scoreboard/ have an option to change back to the original. We should be able to hide as many UI elements as possible.
The UI Stats has been broken for 2 years now. They didn't fix anything last year that they broke in '22. You can't rely on any goals or win totals they show you for a play during a game, you expect them to show real time accurate stats?????
Just popping in to please tell EA to give us an option to turn off the pressure meter!! Last year for the first time in 10 years I didnโt buy 23 and just played 22 with updated rosters because of them removing true broadcast camera. Now we get true broadcast back and now wonโt buy because of this lmao. So sad and annoying please fix it.
Like can they just at least give a little leeway and consideration to offline players? I get you gotta do what you gotta do for the money or what not but if youโre not gonna put work into offline modes donโt completely ruin the game for sim guys. Last year true broadcast, now this! Sad.
