IMO, it's too little improvement to justify the buy.
- The game feels like it's all about hitting this year, but trying to hit a player is still off and you miss quite a lot.
- EA mentioned presentation update, however, come gametime, there was a "Welcome to Chicago" by that annoying announcer, then right to the face-off. No stat discussion, no viewing the goalies, no warmups. Basically, we have no presentation again this year.
- Offense again, can skate right into your zone untouched by defense.
- Graphically it looks the same as last year.
- Weak goals are happening far too often.
Feels like we're going to have the exact same discussions as last year about the issues with this game and EA's lack of listening to the community. Right now, this game just feels more like a band-aid to last year.
