Community ManagerThe return of Icon Passing is great, but I'm not about to praise the team for fixing something they broke.
And it looks like, in EASHL, we're still stuck with matching up against teams with CPU players while we have a full roster. I'm sure it's "being looked at" and you'll "provide an update when you have one" but it's clear by now there's no intention to 'fix' it because it appears to be by design. Thing is, if you'd just be up front and honest and say that, we could all move on with our lives and live with a subpar matchmaking experience rather than sit here and wait and hope EA "fixes" yet another problem that they created themselves.
The secrecy surrounding this issue is ridiculous.
i feel like the community would benefit from Major/Minor league 'clubs'. The club you have today would be a Minor league club, but you would also join a Major league club (say, your favorite NHL team). From there, you and your friends could play Major club games if there aren't a lot of players online to play Minor club games with (which would be the preference).
The goal is to have more 5v5/full games. There has to be a way to bridge people together so that you dont' end up with so many 2/3's vs 5's. i can't stand it. it's a problem. i'd like to believe something can be done!
