Wait but hitting was the easiest it's ever been in NHL24 so I'm a little confused by your comments about "timing." Especially (with the topic of this post in mind) with the SPEED BOOSTING you get just from holding L2 and Square. The speed-boost hitting was ridiculous in 24. You could be coming down the wing with a fast player and have a realistic advantage on the defenseman's poor gap and then suddenly the D-man would ACCELERATE after going into T-rex mode and destroy you.
You've been on the old forums and have seen the complaints of hitting too easy and too hard. I actually never use the face buttons for hitting and just the right stick so yes for me it's about timing. Much like EA_Aljo had said before when they nerfed the hitting speed/contact the complaints piled in so it was reverted back. Guess we shall have to wait until the 27th or if lucky earlier to find out.
