Community ManagerA ton of people use Total Controls. I imagine there is a lot of praise for it.
piro_pirovsky Thanks for the feedback!
EA_Aljo What would you estimate the percentages are of players that use Total Control vs Skill Stick vs Hybrid?

I really don't have those numbers. I would assume Hybrid is the least used. I think half the people I play with use TC.
Hybrid controls have triangle set to reverse hit-only. But the controls page show it being board play. This really needs to be adjusted because hybrid players cannot hug the wall and that really completely deletes a huge part of gameplay
Almost everyone I know who plays NHL uses Total Controls, but do they like it? No... they hate it.
I imagine kids under the age of 12 like it. They can do their fun little lacrosse moves and between the legs shots with one button. lol- EA_Aljo
I rarely see anyone attempt those moves. The Michigan is particularly easy to stop.
EA_Aljo Things that should be removed from 26
Prebuilds
Cartoon characters we dont need Fortnite on the game
Reverse Hitting & Hip check until it is reworked and works properly.
Total Controls. Regardless if its easy to stop you took all the skill out of these moves. According to some people you made Hitting more skill based but took all the skill out of the moves you literally see 1 every 20+ games lol. Hitting needs to return to what it was. Hitting Controls need to be put back to what they were. Ill keep saying this till it happens. Hitting on this game is incredibly unrealistic.
Again NHL reviews have progressively gotten worse every year. And these changes are a few reasons why!
Put NHL 14 back online way better than any new gen game thanks
It's rubbish, and would have sent a LOT of NHL diehards back to 23 or earlier😭
