Total control feedback
After playing this game for a month I’d become completely sick of the total control option. I’m constantly in games with some * spending the entire game trying to do the Michigan. Please eliminate th...

Agree 100 percent.
I've been a skill stick user since it was introduced in 07 , I tried total control for a bit when the game was released and had a chance to get my hands on it.
I Didn't like that the hitting, especially hip check is just a button as well as the Michigan was also added to just a single button.
There's a reason on skill stick it requires a few buttons to perform the hip check and that specific deke, so it's not performed 50 times a game.
I can see why many online users would get frustrated especially if you are a good skill stick player and you are playing someone on total control.
I myself stay away from the online side but I wonder if there is a way for online to become fair for the online skill stick users to have there own vs mode so total control has the separate vs so they don't face each other so there is no unfair game? Ranked or unranked.
Total control is kinda like a cheat code for a player who isn't the best at skill stick isn't it? Or for someone with very little experience to pick up and play and think this is NHL hitz?
@20Portugal04I don't see the total control scheme going away as it is meant to be something for anyone to pick up and play. It's making the moves attached to the 1 button presses that need tuned for it.
- @KlariskraysNHL I figured much work was put into total control that it wouldn't be a one hit wonder. Im sure EA has many ideas of what they may or may not change. Personally it doesn't effect me since I play strictly franchise, but I hope for the community and anyone it does effect, if anything there are changes to the one button hip check and Michigan. I'm sure in the end enjoyment from the sport we love is what we all want
@KlariskraysNHL
Anyone can pick skill stick and play too. Adding one or two dekes such as between the legs and toe drag on one touch, fine! But you guys are missing the point completly with the michigan. Hip check too.- @Tigidooh Yeah but dumbing things down is always a way to make the game more pick up and play to the average person (non hockey folk). I mean we got people who want 94 controls still and to me that says they want to be able to do things simple with as little learning as possible. (yes some people want the 94 controls due to a disability and I understand that)
To me that is why the goalie tether system was created. In theory they thought it would help the average person who doesn't play goalie have an easier time playing the position.
In my mind they only see the things are selling points for showcase highlights that wouldn't be spammed, but we all know in the online competitive scene that if something works with great success and ease it will be used more than intended.
I mean they took some gambles with NHL 24 and I hope they learned from the community a bit more on what is really wanted. I still want to see them take chances in the future of the game but maybe in a more mild way instead of an extreme.@KlariskraysNHL
Well said and 100% agree with you. I'm fine with dumbing things down a bit and making the game more accessible but in a reasonable way.
'' I still want to see them take chances in the future of the game but maybe in a more mild way instead of an extreme.''
That! exactly what I'm saying too. I don't think anyone would be talking crap about total control if it was more moderate.
