Community ManagerHello, everyone. We received a high amount of feedback on the removal of Hybrid controls as well as thoughts on the new goalie tethering system. The below announcement was made on our Twitter channel.
Yes you said it
Glad to see that someone was listening, and while your at it, the stamina drops way to fast just squaring up on the angles.
That‘s good news, thank you for listening 🙂
I think the most gamers which was disapointed and wanted back hybrid controls are offline gamers. If we would'nt be that much in the sum they never would bring back the hybrid in a hurry.
How long after launch will the update happen, we talking immediately when you boot up or weeks down the line? While I am glad the Hybrid control scheme is coming back, I don't understand why in the world the devs would have removed it in the first place knowing full well there was going to be a backlash and then bring it back anyways because of... backlash. Bizarre.
it's very good that EA listened to the customer's voice. My doubt is that they listened to the offline community only. My guess is that EA have realized that disabled or handicapped players may use the hybrid controls. And it is better to respect these people needs. Because if not, a big * storm may arise against EA. Even though I am good with skill stick I feel happy for the folks who wanted back the hybrid controls. Thanks EA for this good decision👍
Now it would be great, if they also would listen to other stuff from the community.
