Cross checks were as devestating as current hipcheck but you just needed to flick the stick like current shoves - it was instant and horribly abused with Truculence. Truculence also megated many penalties and was in a much worse state than you percieve hipchecks to be.
1st clip is a physics and animation issue with EA. I agree it is dumb but would have been just as back with a normal check. Technically this would be physically possible with the right momentum with the carrier off balance.
2. So what? They could have easily crosschecked you with a similar result and still aimed and timed their hits - By missing they'd be out of position.
3. Look how fast they recovered - like it didn't even happen. Yeah that was a clip but I think hipchecks can only lead to interference - no clipping is programmed into the game (which I think sjould be addressed).
4. First hit wasn't a penalty though yes, the momentum was weird.
It's very hard to get a hit from behind in this game - as far as the video game is concerned this was a clean hit. Could have just as easily smashed him with a crosscheck
@TTZ_DipsyTrucculence wouldn't tip the guy over from behind last year, if it did it would 100% have been a charging or boarding.
Besides, you're argument is that the player could've also done this or that.. im trying to address the obvious 1-button-does-it -all problem. Especially 1 button that looks as fake as a guy bending over running into people with his * out. Where do you actually see this in real life?
The play behind the net like it didn't happen?! It almost cost a goal, only I was able to cut the pass. Should have been a clean easy breakout 5v4 with their guy out of position behind our net.
How people defend this crap is beyond me. Must be 3s eliminator players who finally have a chance playing 6s now that arcade mode is expanded to all modes.
