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.
- 2 years ago@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.

Okay, so they can be defended. However... This game has a lot of high skilled players who can take advantage of the player by only paying attention to the computer.
All this game takes is exploiting the computer. The player defending has only 1/3 of a chance to make a proper defensive play.
The other 2/3 is your computer and computer goalie.
Switching players makes your player lose momentum and you have just a split second to react. Switching to goalie has a chance of tripping your opponent.
The game mechanics are exploited by top players. I don't think you guys REALLY play the game at high level.
Avoiding cheese glitch goals can be easy to defend but it doesn't pan out how you want it to half the time.
This is why I have gravitated towards WoC. Rivals and Online Versus is just plagued with players who just cheese it the entire game.
At least in WoC you have teammates that can actually help. It's not the computer who is making the mistake... or should I say programmed mistake.
