Hi there, @Riditelvesmiru
Can you get some video showing how the game is unplayable? There's some instructions for capturing video here if you need it.
- @EA_Aljo Hello, you hear this from us all the time. In Rivals mode, there is no other style of play than arriving in the attacking zone and passing a cross to the always free player standing at the goal. Or make an arc at the throw-in circle and swing to score a goal. Try playing a Rivals match yourself and see for yourself.

I play Rivals matches. I also know these goals can be defended. Again, it would be good if you posted video so the community could give you some advice for defending these shots better as they're really nothing new. People have commonly scored with cross-crease and far side shots for years.
- @EA_Aljo So you could send us some video for an idea or a screenshot. When we also send videos and screenshots. And I ask why the developers do not prevent these long-standing simple goals?

There's good cross-crease goals and bad. I agree that passes to the forehand in a ready position have a great chance to go top shelf consistently but the one-timers where it's someone leaning ahead with his stick outstretched from one hand and they direct that top shelf the majority of the time that are unrealistic. It's about realism more than anything for that I think.

So, the issue isn't cross-crease goals, but you think redirecting the puck and going top-shelf by stretching your stick out is unrealistic? I guess we can agree to disagree again. I'm not seeing a lack of realism with this. Sure, they aren't happening every day, but they aren't exactly unrealistic.

You don't see anything unrealistic because you're able to find one clip a year where it happens in the NHL? This is why it's so difficult to communicate, send in clips and give feedback because you guys think the most outrageous plays are normal and you don't even know how wrong they are.

The average person is also playing a far higher amount of games than there are in a regular NHL season. It's also possible you're seeing more shots. People also attempt the same shots over and over and over again. If all you do are cross-crease attempts, this is more likely. This particular shot is really uncommon for me, for example. Regardless, it's a realistic way to score.

@EA_Aljo but there are too many crossing passes across the goal area in the game, the same run at the goalkeeper. There are players who do nothing but walk through the goal area and try to make the game so disgusting that the player leaves the match or the game altogether. If cross passes weren't so strong, people wouldn't play it so much, it is. This is also why the community is so small. It's here year in and year out and it's hard to get the game going if there's this crap out of the game! The game is also terribly biased, when someone who tries to create loses to someone who only knows how to abuse broken parts of the game (cruising passes through the goal area. maybe the goalkeeper would let it go once after a match, but not 2x in a row.
