One thing that definitely needs to be fixed is hitting in the offensive zone.
Instead of one-timing a puck or shooting a rebound, my player throws his arms up and tries to hit somebody.
why would an offensive player ever do this? I want to shoot the puck
@orgf6n02uoqz Yeah this is a massive oversight. When you hold LT, there should be an automatic negate of hitting.
They changed 1Ts to only manual, which is good, but when the puck is loose in front of the net and 5 people are chipping at it, you are getting 10 elbows flying up in the air like it's Royal Rumble.
That was a necessary feature for cluttered areas where several people are making a play on the puck.

They can't do this because on defence you need to be able to shove players to disrupt the play. You are also often holding vision on D to face the puck. So if it negated the shove, it would take one of the D's key weapons.
They may be able to key it based on zone however.. if they can do that then it's fine. As long as D can still use vision and shove at same time.
Can we get the tactics control back on normal, as in 23? Or is this with the hybrid control coming-back patch?

In '23, you were able to hold LT to negate body checking in the O-Zone while also still being able to utilize LT and and shove in the D-Zone.

You nailed it. This change created a massive grey area in the control scheme. Queueing for a shot shouldn’t result in a unintended shove in a loose puck/one timer situation.- @75fd980e1b183900 yup! And penalties galore too instead of the user attempting to play the puck
