Patch 1.1.0 Feedback Thread

New game launch were very late and now finally got the game and what, no hybrid controls. I’m so old for learning skill stick. Turned me down totally..

Bought the game pre order with early access, just to find out, that the promised hybrid control isn't added to game.

I can't play with skill stick, I have used hybrid for decades.

EA promised us the hybrid stick, but didn't deliver. I have absolutely no use for my early access, and can't get ahead in the game since it's unplayable for me.

EA suckered me into this buy under a dishonest precondition. In what other type of businees would you be allowed this type of governance, without being liable?

Shame on you EA - milking your customers by lying to them - GREAT...

3v3 EASHL should not have pressure system. It's clearly designed for 6v6. It's too easy to get full as you can move the puck along the sides in offensive side endlessly in 3v3. It's effect is also too strong as there is some much space on ice. Very awkward that it suddenly gets activated and causes energy drain and speed loss. If this feature must for some reason exist, at least make it such that it slowly takes effect over time.

We said back in August that Hybrid controls would return post launch so I don't know where we promised they would be back today.

@NHLANDERS I'll pass on the feedback. It's very possible this could get adjusted in a future update. For now, I've been slapping the puck out to clear it.

Or, you know, they were trying to lower the amount of delay of game penalties by ensuring the puck doesn't clear the glass as often. There's a new META (pressure Meter) that encourages the clearing of the puck. If they hadn't adjusted the dump height, you'd see an endless stream of complaints that delay of game penalties are out of hand and eA kNoWs NoThiNG aBoUt HoCkeY lol

They overcorrected a bit and should probably adjust it so that you can clear the puck high enough at certain areas of the ice. 

But this constant "ThEy DoN'T kNoW NuThIn' 'bOuT hOcKeY' is so dumb. They're trying to adjust things based on feedback. It's not always going to be perfect.

There are many improvements to NHL 24.

cpu dmen ai is better, they now shoot the puck. 
In zone defense is also slightly better. 

Two things need to be fixed outside of everyone's wishes of removing the visible pressure meter on ice: 

1) dumping the puck is SEVERELY underpowered, which creates a double whammy. 

cpu and human will have much harder tim clearing the puck, which will make pressure situations feel unearned and cheaper.

Also playing the dump and chase style is nearly impossible now, for both you and the cpu. Please bring the old dump mechanic back in a future patch. 

2) add a way for us to tune

pressure situations: less often, less nerfed ratings during thise sutuations, etc.

Thanks
