First impressions of NHL 25 Online VS
So the good. They fixed everything I complained about last year. The action tracker replays are fixed, they removed the R3 tie up which you would accidently hit while trying to take a shot. The hits require a little more skill and timing and the Michigan is more difficult to pull off. All good and thank you. The thing that still bothers me is the pressure system which rewards opponents who circle around in my zone and play keepaway until the pressure meter is up and then pretty much any shot is either in the back of your net or trickling through your gassed goalie. With the addition of these long range missile one timers from the point which are being scored on me almost 3 times a game its tough to defend. A tweaking of the pressure system is needed more than anything. I love everything else so far. It would be nice to see the coach during the timeouts or the goalie shame skate to the bench when making goalie change. Not sure why those videos were removed the last couple years. All in all another amazing job though 👏
