NHL 25 Gameplay First Look

lol what a joke. Looked exactly the same. Don’t have people who don’t know to play do a video like this. Didn’t see any of the so called new additions 

Flex celebration still in... a lot of people like myself, are out. Total cringe, just plain stupid and silly. There are a lot of adults wanting to play a hockey video game, not kid stuff. 

This is the worst advertisement for a new game I have ever seen. The brothers clearly did not want to be there, no new mechanics shown off, it cuts away when one of the brothers starts commenting about something negative with the game, nothing looks different at all. I don't get what is going on EA right now. The absolute worst year since 15, period. 

I am little chocked it looked scary similar to NHL 24 and i do not understand this they said about presentation where was it?

Infinite Camera System

The all-new Infinite Camera System completely revamps replays with increased variety and authenticity of angles. Those include broadcast-inspired wire, drone, and other static cameras positioned throughout the rink to capture even more of the action.

that Jonas Siegenthaler backhander from the top of the circle goal had me crying laughing, this game is a certified stinker

The tunnel vision goal celebrations are terrible. Why are they still in the game? Might as well have someone doing the “Fortnite dance” after they score a goal…… likely a future patch I’m sure….

For those that were asking about the speed boost checking. Yes its still in the game (@3mins). 

Thats unbelievable considering the reaction from the community.  

EA_Aljo can we get feedback from the devs why this is still in the game even though the community asked for it to removed. We were told last year that after it was removed that so many people complained that it was added again. I've seen far more posts asking for it to be  removed. Actually I seen next to no posts on Reddit, Twitter or the EA forum asking for it to be added again. 

Says a lot that this is the best footage they could cut up for an extended showcase. Everyone already buried the video so I'll just comment on how bad it looks to release this in 1080p 30fps.

I am so sad the flex moments are still in the game but this year they also seems to have ad some sort of BOOM and shake to the camera the moment when the puck crosses the goal line. Please tell me we can turn that off??

It could be cool if the camera continued to shake beacause of the crowd going wild when the home team score but that is not what it looks like they are going for here. It seems to be another arcade effect for both teams and nothing to do with the crowd.

The video doesn't do some of the changes some justice.  For one seeing the Ice IQ isn't gonna show as well when you got 2 humans on each team moving around doing whatever.  It's one of those things you will notice both offensively and defensively.  There will always be bonehead plays by the AI regardless.  

Imo the goaltending is greatly improved and yeah some of those goals were definitely weird, but it's hard to program a goalie to either stop everything or let everything in.  

I agree using the NHL players doesn't showcase what can actually be done in the game, but it's meant to be more of a marketing tool using the cover athletes.  Come Friday you can watch and hear from the better players how they feel about changes and such.
