Community ManagerApologies for being incorrect with feeling like you wanted a full simulation game. I agree there are certainly aspects that could be more realistic. Hopefully, that will happen. Thanks for all the feedback.
No problem at all. And I don't mean to sound defensive, I just want to make sure my intentions are clear. I don't want to sacrifice "fun" nor "accessibility" for the sake of "realism."
I don't think "realism" plays too nicely with a controller for obvious reasons. Obviously I'm biased, but I feel like my feedback/suggestions are coming from both a "competitive" side and a hockey side. I think there's many ways we could allow for both more of a skill gap as well as respecting the sport of hockey that we simply haven't tried. I find rocket league to be addicting. Always trying to improve, simple controls, yet extremely hard to master. Why can't this series be the same?

I'm in agreement with what you're saying. I definitely want a more realistic game that remains competitive with a good skill gap. I don't really have any issues with the skill gap currently. Players with high skill are going to have that reflect in their rank. It still takes a lot of skill to get to the higher divisions and stay there. I'll make sure the feedback gets passed on.
