@EA_AljoOkey, now i have another fun video. You are telling us, game is not scripted :D Why then my players didnt change lines more then 12 minutes of game time....This is really absurd Aljo, they could change so many times, but my whole line was on ice holded by game purposly, this player was insanly bad, and this happens i couldnt play 3th period. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sac7Qv1R_MM&ab_channel=Sirajs
And about the first video, yyou dont need to tell me how should i aim or how should i shoot from first. But man, game isnt working, or more then half players forgett after 2 months how to play NHL :D this is more absurd and absurd how you can still defend this total broken 1/10 C- game which is in beta version

Community ManagerI'm seeing players make changes on the fly. You also can manually change lines whenever you like.

He's probably one of the all-time greats when it comes to HUT. You may not like how he plays the game but if it works it works.
- @EA_Aljo I know that i can change lines manually and i did, but they didnt change. One of them changed but it was icing, then i was two times in attack zone but noone changed even i clicked cicrcle to change line, and like this i cant change lines 12 min of game time. With this problem, that players doesnt change even 2/3 already changed occurs in NHL so much, but always its been 1 player not whole line
- @EA_Aljo I mentioned it earlier when the game cam out that I’ve been having problems with line changing on occasion. If I’m on say a center, call for a line change while I have possession dump the puck, follow the defender when they get the puck so they don’t just straight break out, I swap off to a defender and then I notice while in the defensive zone the tired center coming in instead of already being off the ice due to the line change. I’ll try and get video clip the next time

Sounds good. I'll watch for the video. Thanks!
- @EA_Aljo Hello Aljo, i have another video of weird behaving of AI, this defensman(Orr) even opponent has puck skate to blue line and let player open https://clips.twitch.tv/ResilientGracefulFerretTheRinger-WsYKMlyYDkaQrQuU

Lets talk about about high scoring chances once more :D This opponent was total bad, but somehow he didnt need chances he could shot by backhand and goalie/game decided, this will be goal after big chance :D Not even in high pressure. Not even talking about player AI, which just skate out of him.....

Couple things from that clip. Player to watch is #16, as I get off with JGP the auto switch to the next guy but I miss the door because of the speed, so I swap off to the defender because I don’t want to try and get 16 off and in turn mess up the D guy on the auto switch by skating up when they should be collapsing on the play. You’ll see a tired 16 come into the shot, which is why I stop playing to hit the line change again and in turn almost give up a goal.
Another aside is how much I dislike the AI. This is for the cpu side, their D man is on the rush and takes the shot, then instead of slaying to the loose puck and keeping possession… he just tries to get back?? It’s so annoying to see, and it makes me really dislike when D-men start leading the rush because their AI doesn’t keep them in the play they start thinking D first - EA_Aljo
I'm really not sure about the logic for manual line changes. As far as I know, they should change when you request it, but will also wait until it's more safe to do so. However, players will also change on their own when they get tired and there are times they won't head to the bench at the best times. I'm sure there's room for improvement here. I don't really see too many issues with line changes, but I also like to freeze the puck so I can get fresh legs on the ice and minimize those on the fly line changes. Thanks for the feedback on this.
- @EA_Aljo Thank you for looking in on it. I’m assuming since the player is at least near the bench & the door itself that they would get off instead of going out of their way when tired to get back into the play
