Really? Filling up a power bar to get boosts in a hockey game? My expectations for realism and authenticity were low but wow
- de4c0nfr05t2 years agoSeasoned Hotshot@coolspot777 I would think yes... but you couldn't turn Carlyn off even though she was widely complained about. So flip a coin.

Yea, this might be up there with the breakaway camera in regard to top gimmicky features in an NHL series.
I'd like to reserve judgement until I play it, and I appreciate the effort they're putting forward in revitalising the meta, but first reaction to seeing power-up bars mid-ice and consuming the boards is not good.

The gamechangers have mentioned on Twitter that hybrid controls are no more.
The buttons are now used for certain dekes including the Michigan.Yikes. Although I don't use Hybrid controls, the idea that some dekes are being mapped to buttons really rubs me the wrong way. These moves required practice and some skill to execute in-game and now someone can just push a button?
I'm all for making the game more accessible to newer players, but hopefully one-button-dekes are something that can be turned off in competitive modes like WoC/HUT/OVP

I'm personally looking forward to the changes in the game. I like the offensive pressure system rewarding cycling the puck and getting shots to build it up instead of simply just ragging in the zone. No way we should be seeing posts from people complaining about having like 10+min toa and 20+ more shots than their opponent and still losing a game 2-1 or something. I'm going to guess this will be highly monitored and adjusted if it happens too easily and causes problems as it should be a simply slider fix for them. One thing is certain is that PowerPlays are gonna feel so much better setting up plays.
Really hoping I was understanding the 1 touch passing correctly in that it will finally be off the sticks fast and with the ability to direct target I hope it's something like Pass+Button then tap another button to instantly tap it to the marked button player for ultimate movement and setups.
Goalies in the video kind of scare me if they gonna be flopping around so much. Makes it feel like they are intentionally gonna give out big rebounds to keep the play alive and not really stay in a controlled state. I like they brought back the ability to guess the shot for a better save chance. Also love the centering back which should really help a person playing goalie not scramble and go crazy so much and stay in a more relaxed state of playing.
In the video on the dump and chase when the Avalanche player went for a sticklift it was actually successful without a penalty. In NHL 23 that same exact play would probably always result in a penalty.
As for the controls I feel they are going with a method to make things easier for all and it becomes more of a are you smart enough to know when to use said moves instead of making it some weird map out to execute.
As for the rest of the details I look forward to the Deep Dives that should shine some more light on the features. Really want to see how the WoC crossplay clubs works.
