Sucks the old controls won't be back for launch but glad they're telling us they are aiming for late October and not keeping us in the dark and saying something like "coming soon".
I really wish they didn't have that meter on the ice like that.
I mean they have these new cool dynamic boards which would be perfect for having a graphic like that.. yet they decide to put it in the middle of the ice? Like come on lol
@de4c0nfr05t I'm not surprised anymore. Constant bad decisions that makes the game more like NHL Threes in all modes.
- @bobemil_sw13 I’ve seen a lot of this, I happen to love the new format. They make you play real hockey and not just the one timers you have to actually cycle the puck and create good lanes. The only issues I have in this game are the cosmetic issues like having to create your guy in Home,Away and Alternate uniforms. I honestly would be so pissed if they change anything in the gameplay
But if you the coach tells your team to just shoot one-timers, or skate backwards for example, you should be able to do it.
I agree...I like the new physical features but every hip check shouldn't knock a guy over the boards or through the glass. Also skilled players can very easily avoid a hip check...have you ever seen McJesus get hip checked? Nope, this is because with his speed and awareness he either blows by a defender or knows when they're going to brace for a hit and skates around them.
I know it sounds crazy but I advocate for a SLOW DOWN feature where, based on a player's defensive or offensive awareness, plays slow down during specific occasions so the user has time to read and react to the situation - e.g. BIG TIPPER if I'm Matthew Tkachuk camping in front of the net and the puck is fired at me, as a user I should have time to make an actual attempt to deflect the puck rather than have the game's AI randomly decide if I tip the puck or not. If I'm a SHUTDOWN defender and someone tries to deke around me on a break, I should be able manually to attempt to poke, sweep, or body check to prevent the deke. These are just examples but if EA did this it would make the game much more realistic.
- @dhwjr8682 EA already has this with game speed. The game would play so much better and realistic on 2/6 speed
