KidShowtime1867 Hitting Should be Put back to what it was. You can get rid of the "Suction Cup" Garbage thats fine. But the Hit should just be Skating/Momentum shoulder tucked and A Flick of the Right Stick Up.
The Animation for Hitting is Hilarious and garbage all in one.
Hitting Should Also Be more Effective on those who have Lower Balance and Strength when theyre Protecting the Puck. And Also More effective when a player pins themselves to the Boards.
Protect the Puck on the Game is Super OP. As Ive seen Small Snipers Go into this Animation and have A 6'0 195 Grinder go for the Hit and Bounce off.
Reverse Hitting Needs To be Tweaked and More Attribute dependent. Ive Used Powerforward with High Hitting Balance and Strength and absolutely get trucked By Wheels Dangler With 65 Balance 65 Hitting.
A Hip Check shouldve been a patch you are correct. You wonder why EA is Hated lol. They'll fix something that shouldve been a patch for the new game and use it as a new feature which is Pretty sad.
Again Attributes need to Have more impact. Right now Players Can Make Meta Builds because Some Attributes have little Impact.
Attributes that Should be tweaked
Balance. Lots of Players will use Low balance so they can have High speed and Agility without lowering their shot below 80s. Balance And Puck control strength Agility Should go hand and Hand.
Puck Control, Puck Control Should Work With Hand Eye Def and Off awareness. Should Help alot with settling Turnovers Bouncing pucks and Puck pick ups and should help when Bumped. Cant tell you how many times ill Get Bumped and Cant pick the puck back up even though its directly in my feet.
Strength. Should Help Faceoffs,Balance,Hitting, And Puck control. Strength should Help with Pushing/tie ups on Faceoffs. Help with Bigger Hits, Strength should help with Tieups Going in puck battles.
Durability. Lots of Players will Lower Durability To Increase HandEye and Strength. Ive Delivered Tons of punishing hits where the Player that I hit Gets right back up. Even when Ive Hit them and their Neck snaps against the Boards.
Def and Offensive of awareness I think are pretty awful Attributes. Position should play more of a role than it does. Ive used 85Def awareness been in great position and Just have the puck go directly through me. I think these could be tweaked alot. But position is Key. You should need to rely on High def awareness when youre in a good spot. I will say ive had more success picking off pucks with Higher D Awareness. But it should be that way.
Id Like to see Shot Blocking Somehow get more involved as No one Puts Shot blocking up. Its just and attribute everyone drops.
I agree with some of this, I do think standard hitting needs to be more effective, especially around the slot. Getting into the slot seems way too easy. Passes going through multiple people, hits not connecting, pokes inaccurate (including the goalie pock check which is basically useless). I think attributes need a boost overall, 85 doesnt feel like 85, even 92-94 feels more like high 80s instead of "elite" like it should. Same on goaltenders, I feel like I need 94+ otherwise theres a good chance I wiff on something. The fact that most goalies in the game can get 90+ on all their low attributes but were forced to run high 80s if we want a solid five hole, or tank the five hole to get respectable lows. It just doesnt seem like the attributes respond like they should, especially from a defensive perspective. The only attributes Ive seen act at or above expectations are power and accuracy for shooters.
